The parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I. DEFINITIONS

Section 1.1. Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“ABR”: for any day, a rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/16 of 1%) equal to the greater of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day and (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1%. For purposes hereof: “Prime Rate” shall mean the rate of interest per annum publicly announced from time to time by JPMCB as its prime rate in effect at its principal office in New York City (the Prime Rate not being intended to be the lowest rate of interest charged by JPMCB in connection with extensions of credit to debtors); and “Federal Funds Effective Rate” shall mean, for any day, the weighted average of the rates on overnight federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by federal funds brokers, as published on the next succeeding Business Day by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or, if such rate is not so published for any day which is a Business Day, the average of the quotations for the day of such transactions received by the Administrative Agent from three federal funds brokers of recognized standing selected by it. If for any reason the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that it is unable to ascertain the Federal Funds Effective Rate, for any reason, including the inability or failure of the Administrative Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the terms thereof, the ABR shall be determined without regard to clause (b) of the first sentence of this definition until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. Any change in the ABR due to a change in the Prime Rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate shall be effective as of the opening of business on the effective day of such change in the Prime Rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate, respectively.

“Account Receivable Indebtedness”: any obligation arising in connection with a Permitted Receivables Transaction (including, without limitation, any such obligation that may not be reflected in financial statements). To the extent a Permitted Receivables Transaction is outstanding and is accounted for as a sale of accounts receivable under GAAP, Account Receivable Indebtedness shall also include the additional Indebtedness, determined on a consolidated basis, which would have been outstanding had such Permitted Receivables Transaction been accounted for as a borrowing, and the discount rate in such Permitted Receivables Transaction shall be treated as interest.

“Administrative Agent”: collectively, JPMCB, in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder, and any Affiliates of JPMCB as may be designated in writing by it to the Borrower and the Lenders as performing duties of such Administrative Agent with respect to the Eurocurrency Loans and Letters of Credit denominated in any Foreign Currencies, and any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to Section 9.9.

Such Borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting the account of the Borrower with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.3. Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee for the period from and including the first day of the Revolving Credit Commitment Period to the Termination Date, computed at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender during the period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December and on the Termination Date, or on such earlier date as the Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate as provided herein, commencing on the first of such dates to occur after the date hereof; provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 2.3 only, such Lender’s (including the Swing Line Lender’s) Revolving Credit Percentage of any outstanding Swing Line Loans shall be excluded in the calculation of such Lender’s Available Revolving Credit Commitment.

Section 2.4. Optional Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that, no such termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Swing Line Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit of all Lenders would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders in effect after such requested reduction. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect.

Section 2.5. Swing Line Commitments.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and provided no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make swing line loans (individually, a “Swing Line Loan”, and collectively, the “Swing Line Loans”) available to the Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $25,000,000; provided that, the Swing Line Lender shall have no obligation to and shall not issue any Swing Line Loan if, after giving effect to such issuance, the Outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit of all Lenders would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders then in effect. Amounts borrowed by the Borrower under this Section 2.5 may be repaid and, through but excluding the Termination Date, reborrowed. All Swing Line Loans shall be made as ABR Loans and shall not be entitled to be converted into Eurocurrency Loans. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be in an amount equal to $100,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. The Borrower shall give the Swing Line Lender irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender prior to 12:00 Noon, on the requested Borrowing Date) specifying the Borrowing Date and the amount of the requested Swing Line Loan. Each such notice given by means other than written notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by the Borrower. The proceeds of each Swing Line Loan will be made available by the Swing Line Lender to the Borrower by crediting the account of the Borrower with such proceeds.

(b) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, may, and on each Monday (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day) shall, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swing Line Lender to act on its behalf) request prior to 12:00 Noon that each Lender, including the Swing Line Lender, make a Revolving Credit Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount of the Swing Line Loans (the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”) outstanding on the date such notice is given. Unless any of the events described in paragraph (f) of Article 8 shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of paragraph (c) of this Section 2.5 shall apply), each Lender shall make the proceeds of its Revolving Credit Loan available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender prior to 2:00 P.M. in funds immediately available on the date such notice is given. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loans. Each Revolving Credit Loan made pursuant to this Section 2.5(b) shall be an ABR Loan.

(c) If prior to the making of the Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.5(b) one of the events described in paragraph (f) of Article 8 shall have occurred, each Lender will on the date such Revolving Credit Loans were to have been made, purchase an undivided participating interest in the Refunded Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Percentage of such Refunded Swing Line Loan. Each Lender will immediately transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Swing Line Lender will grant to such Lender a Swing Line Loan participation as of the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.

(d) Whenever, at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any Lender such Lender’s participating interest in a Refunded Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Lender will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it.

(e) Each Lender’s obligation to purchase participating interests pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or the Borrower may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or anyone else for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower; (iv) any breach of this Agreement by the Borrower or any other Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

Section 2.6. Conversion and Continuation Options.

(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurocurrency Borrowings denominated in Dollars to ABR Borrowings by giving the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice of such election; provided that, any such conversion of such Eurocurrency Borrowings may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto (or on any other day if the conversion referred to herein is accompanied by all amounts payable by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16). The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Revolving Credit Borrowings that are comprised of ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Borrowings denominated in Dollars by giving the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice of such election. Notices of conversion pursuant to this Section 2.6(a) must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:30 p.m. three Business Days prior to the requested effective date of such conversion (which must be a Business Day) and shall specify (i) the amount of the Revolving Credit Borrowing to be converted, and (ii) if the Revolving Credit Borrowing is to be converted into Eurocurrency Loans, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto. Any such notice given by means other than written notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. All or any part of outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowings and ABR Borrowings may be converted as provided herein; provided that (i) no Borrowings may be converted into Eurocurrency Borrowings when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders have, determined that such a conversion is not appropriate, (ii) no Borrowings may be converted into Eurocurrency Borrowings after the date that is seven days prior to the Termination Date, and (iii) no Swing Line Loan may be converted into Eurocurrency Loans.

(b) Any Eurocurrency Borrowing in any Agreed Currency may be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing in such Agreed Currency upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto. Notices of continuation pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) must be received by the Administrative Agent by the following applicable times and dates: (i) for Eurocurrency Borrowings denominated in Dollars, not later than 12:30 p.m. three Business Days prior to the requested effective date of such continuation (which must be a Business Day), and (ii) for Eurocurrency Borrowings denominated in a Foreign Currency, not later than 11:00 a.m. Local Time four Business Days prior to the requested effective date (which must be a Business Day). Such notices of continuation must specify the amount and the Agreed Currency of the Revolving Credit Borrowing being continued, and the Interest Period applicable upon such continuation. Any such notice given with respect to a Revolving Credit Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency must be in writing; any such notice given with respect to a Revolving Credit Borrowing denominated in Dollars, if given by means other than written notice, shall be promptly confirmed in writing by the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. All or any part of outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowings may be continued as provided herein; provided that, no Eurocurrency Borrowings may be continued as such (i) when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders have, determined that such a continuation is not appropriate or (ii) after the date that is seven days prior to the Termination Date.

(c) If the Borrower shall fail to give timely notice of conversion or continuation as provided in Section 2.6(a) or (b) with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars prior to the expiration of the applicable Interest Period, or if such conversion or continuation is not permitted by the terms of Section 2.6(a) or (b), then such Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be automatically converted to an ABR Borrowing on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. If the Borrower shall fail to give timely notice of continuation as provided in Section 2.6(b) with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency prior to the expiration of the applicable Interest Period, or if such continuation is not permitted by the terms of Section 2.6(b), then such Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be continued in the same Foreign Currency and in the same amount as a Eurocurrency Borrowing having an Interest Period of one month.

Section 2.7. Minimum Amounts and Maximum Number of Borrowings. All Borrowings, all conversions and continuations of Borrowings, and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, (a) each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and a whole multiple of $100,000, (b) each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency shall be in a minimum amount in such Foreign Currency that is the Approximate Equivalent Amount of $1,000,000 and a whole multiple in such Foreign Currency that is the Approximate Equivalent Amount of $100,000, and (c) there shall be no more than (x) ten (10) Eurocurrency Borrowings denominated in Dollars outstanding at any time, or (y) five (5) Eurocurrency Borrowings denominated in Foreign Currencies outstanding at any time.

Section 2.8. Repayment of Loans; Prepayments; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Termination Date, (ii) to the Swing Line Lender the then unpaid principal amount of any Swing Line Loan as provided in Section 2.5 and on the Termination Date; provided that, on each date that a Revolving Credit Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swing Line Loans then outstanding. All such payments shall be made together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon, and any other amounts owing hereunder.

(b) If at any time (i) the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit of all Lenders exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders then in effect, or (ii) other than solely as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit of all Lenders that are denominated in Foreign Currencies (calculated as of the most recent Computation Date) exceeds the Foreign Currency Sublimit, or (iii) solely as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit of all Lenders that are denominated in Foreign Currencies (calculated as of the most recent Computation Date) exceeds 105% of the Foreign Currency Sublimit, the Borrower shall, promptly after receipt of written notice from the Administrative Agent, repay Borrowings or, if no Borrowings are then outstanding, cash collateralize the L/C Obligations in an account with the Administrative Agent in the manner provided in Article VIII, in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to eliminate any such excess.

(c) The Borrower may prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part at any time, subject to the terms of this paragraph (c). In each such event, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing (with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency) or by telephone (with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars, and promptly confirmed in writing) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars, not later than 12:30 p.m. three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency, 11:00 a.m. Local Time four Business Days before the date of prepayment, (iii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:30 p.m. one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iv) in the case of prepayment of a Swing Line Loan, not later than 12:00 noon on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the Type and principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing pursuant to this paragraph (c) shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.2 or 2.5, as applicable. Each prepayment of a Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest and by any amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.16.

(d) 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, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount and currency of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

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

(g) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a Note, substantially in the form of Exhibit A or Exhibit B hereto, as applicable, and the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.6) be represented by one or more Notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such Note is a registered Note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

Section 2.9. Interest Rates and Payment Dates.

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

(b) Each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest for each day at a rate per annum equal to the ABR determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin for ABR Loans.

(c) If all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Borrowing, (ii) any interest payable thereon or (iii) any commitment fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is (x) in the case of overdue principal, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (c) plus 2% per annum or (y) in the case of overdue interest, commitment fee or other amount, the rate described in paragraph (b) of this Section plus 2% per annum, in each case from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

(d) If and so long as any Lender is required to make special deposits to maintain reserve asset ratios or to pay fees, in each case in respect of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans in any currency other than Dollars, the Administrative Agent may require the Borrower to pay, for the account of such Lender, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Loans, additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum equal to the Mandatory Costs as may be applicable thereto and calculated in accordance with the formula and in the manner set forth in Exhibit 2.9 hereto.

(e) If and so long as any Lender is required to comply with reserve assets, liquidity, cash margin or other requirements of any monetary or other authority (but excluding requirements reflected in the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements or the Mandatory Costs) in respect of any of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans in any currency other than Dollars, such Lender may require the Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Loans subject to such requirements, additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum specified by such Lender to be the cost to such Lender of complying with such requirements in relation to such Loan.

(f) Any additional interest owed pursuant to paragraph (d) or (e) above shall be determined by the Administrative Agent and notified to the Borrower in the form of a certificate setting forth such additional interest at least five Business Days before each date on which interest is payable for the relevant Loan, and such additional interest so notified to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Lender on each date on which interest is payable for such Loan.

(g) Failure or delay on the party of any Lender on any occasion to demand additional interest pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such additional interest on any subsequent occasion.

(h) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided that, interest accruing pursuant to Section 2.9(c) shall be payable from time to time on demand.

Section 2.10. Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) Interest, commitment fees, and Letter of Credit commissions and fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that interest whenever it is calculated on the basis of the ABR (based on the Prime Rate), or in respect of a Eurocurrency Loan denominated in Pounds Sterling, shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of each determination of a Eurocurrency Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.9(a).

Section 2.11. Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of any changes arising on or after the date hereof affecting the applicable interbank Eurocurrency market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Eurocurrency Rate for such Eurocurrency Borrowing for such Interest Period, or

(b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that, by reason of any changes arising on or after the date hereof affecting the applicable interbank Eurocurrency market, the applicable Eurocurrency Rate determined or to be determined for such Eurocurrency Borrowing for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof confirmed in writing to the Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter, and in any case at least one Business Day prior to the first day of such Interest Period. If such notice is given, (x) any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans in Dollars, (y) any Borrowing that was to have been converted or continued on the first day of such Interest Period to a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to or continued as an ABR Borrowing in Dollars and (z) any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency that has been requested to be made or continued on the first day of such Interest Period shall not be made, or if already then outstanding, shall not be continued but instead shall be repaid in full on such day. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurocurrency Borrowing in any affected Agreed Currency shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert any Borrowing to a Eurocurrency Borrowing in any affected Agreed Currency.

Section 2.12. Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Revolving Credit Borrowings and each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee in respect of the Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder shall be made pro rata according to the respective Revolving Credit Percentages of the Lenders. Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of any Borrowings shall be made first to the repayment of Swing Line Loans before any payment may be made on account of the principal of the Revolving Credit Borrowings. Subject to the immediately foregoing sentence, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of the principal of and interest on the Revolving Credit Borrowings shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Borrowings then held by the Lenders. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees, Letter of Credit commissions or otherwise, shall be made without set off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 P.M. (or, in the case of Eurocurrency Borrowings denominated in Foreign Currencies, 1:00 p.m. Local Time) on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Applicable Payment Office in immediately available funds. If the Borrower does not, or is unable for any reason to, effect payment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing to the Lenders in the applicable Foreign Currency, or if the Borrower shall default in the payment when due of any payment in such Foreign Currency, the Lenders may, at their option, require such payment to be made to the Lenders in the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Foreign Currency determined in accordance with Section 10.19. With respect to any amount due and payable in any Foreign Currency, the Borrower agrees to hold the Lenders harmless from any losses, if any, that are incurred by the Lenders arising from any change in the value of Dollars in relation to such currency between the date such payment became due and the date of actual payment thereof. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on Eurocurrency Borrowings) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a Eurocurrency Borrowing becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a Borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its Revolving Credit Percentage of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent in the Agreed Currency, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available in the applicable Agreed Currency to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender on the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate or a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, including, without limitation, the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency until the second Business Day after such demand, and thereafter at the greater of the ABR (in the case of any Borrowing denominated in Dollars), or a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation including, without limitation, the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate (in the case of any Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency). A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage of such Borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent in the Agreed Currency by such Lender within two Business Days of such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount from the Borrower on demand, together with interest thereon at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Borrowings hereunder (in the case of any Borrowing denominated in Dollars), or at the rate per annum then applicable to Eurocurrency Borrowings in the applicable Foreign Currency having an Interest Period of one month (in the case of any Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency). Nothing contained in this Section 2.12(b) shall relieve any Lender that has failed to make available its Revolving Credit Percentage of any Borrowing hereunder from its obligation to do so in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 2.13. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law (other than the certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational or governing documents with respect to any Lender) or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the date hereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurocurrency Loans as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund any Eurocurrency Loans in any requested Agreed Currency, (a) such Lender shall forthwith give telephonic or telecopy notice of such circumstances, confirmed in writing, to the Borrower (which notice shall be withdrawn by such Lender when such Lender shall reasonably determine that it shall no longer be illegal for such Lender to make or maintain such Eurocurrency Loans or to convert ABR Loans to such Eurocurrency Loans), (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make such Eurocurrency Loans, continue such Eurocurrency Loans as such and convert ABR Loans to such Eurocurrency Loans shall forthwith be cancelled and, until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain such Eurocurrency Loans, when such a Eurocurrency Loan is requested, such Lender shall then have a commitment only to make an ABR Loan in Dollars or a Eurocurrency Loan in another Agreed Currency otherwise permitted to be made, and (c) such Eurocurrency Loans then outstanding, if any, shall be converted automatically to ABR Loans in Dollars on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Eurocurrency Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurocurrency Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.16. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the affected Lender shall, prior to giving such notice to the Administrative Agent, designate a different applicable lending office if such designation would avoid the need for giving such notice and if such designation would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in the good faith exercise of its discretion.

Section 2.14. Requirements of Law.

(a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law (other than the certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational or governing documents with respect to any Lender) or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the date on which any Lender becomes a Lender or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case, made subsequent to the date hereof:

(i) shall subject such Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Application or any Eurocurrency Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes as defined in Section 2.15 (including Non-Excluded Taxes imposed solely by reason of any failure of such Lender to comply with its obligations under Section 2.15(b) or 2.15(c)) and changes in respect of taxes on or measured by the overall net income of such Lender or any applicable lending office, branch or affiliate thereof (or changes in any franchise, capital, branch profits, excise, doing business or net worth taxes or similar taxes imposed in lieu of such net income taxes) (“Net Income Taxes”) imposed by a jurisdiction as a result of a present or former connection between such jurisdiction, any political subdivision or any taxing authority thereof or therein, and such Lender, or any applicable lending office, branch or affiliate thereof (other than a connection arising solely from such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations, or received payment under or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document);

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurocurrency Rate or in Section 2.9 hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition (excluding the imposition of any tax);

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurocurrency Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Borrower from such Lender through the Administrative Agent in accordance herewith, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable with respect to such Eurocurrency Loans or Letters of Credit; provided that, in any such case, the Borrower may elect to convert Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender hereunder to ABR Loans in Dollars by giving the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days’ notice of such election, in which case the Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon demand, without duplication, amounts theretofore required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14(a) and such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.16. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly give notice to the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, certifying that (x) one of the events described in this paragraph (a) has occurred and the nature of such event, (y) the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (z) the additional amounts demanded by such Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans, L/C Obligations, and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any company controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, in each case, made subsequent to the date hereof (or, in the case of any Lender that becomes a Lender subsequent to the date hereof, subsequent to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender) does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such company’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such company could have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor certifying that (x) one of the events described in this paragraph (b) has occurred and the nature of such event (in reasonable detail), (y) the reduced rate of return on such Lender’s or such company’s capital resulting from such event and (z) the additional amounts demanded by such Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction.

(c) Each Lender which becomes entitled to claim any amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14 agrees, upon the request of the Borrower, to use its best efforts to take steps reasonably available to it and acceptable to the Borrower, including designating an alternative lending office or booking the affected Loan through another branch or affiliate, if by doing so any such additional amounts will be avoided or materially reduced; provided that, taking such steps results in no additional costs to such Lender (other than costs that are paid by the Borrower) and is not otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender, in such Lender’s sole discretion determined in good faith.

Section 2.15. Taxes.

(a) All payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement (or by any Guarantor under any Guarantee) shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding any Net Income Taxes and any such items imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent, such Lender, or any applicable lending office, branch or affiliate thereof, and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document) (“Non-Excluded Taxes”). If any Non-Excluded Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement, provided, however, that the Borrower shall be entitled, to the extent required by law, to deduct and withhold any Non-Excluded Taxes and shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender if the Administrative Agent or such Lender or, to the extent that the Lender has transferred a Participation to any Participant, such Participant, fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (b) of this Section. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure, except in the case in which such failure of the Borrower is due to a Lender’s failure to fully comply with requirements set forth in paragraph (b) of this subsection. The agreements in this subsection shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b) (i) The Administrative Agent and each Lender that is organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or a successor thereto;

(ii) Each Lender that is not organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof shall:

(A) on or before the first day upon which a payment is made hereunder to such Lender, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, or successor applicable form, as the case may be;

(B) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further copies of any such form or certification on or before the date that any such form, certification or statement expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower; and

(C) obtain such extensions of time for filing and complete such forms, certifications or statements as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent;

unless in any such case any change in treaty, law or regulation, or the application or interpretation thereof, has occurred after the date on which such Person became a Lender hereunder which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Each time such Lender is required to deliver a form, certificate or statement under this clause (ii), such Lender shall certify on such Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as the case may be, or successor applicable form, and as may otherwise be required under applicable law, that (A) it is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes and (B) it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax.

(iii) Each Person that shall become a Lender or a Participant pursuant to Section 10.6 shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all of the forms, certifications and statements required pursuant to this paragraph (b), provided that in the case of a Participant the obligations of such Participant pursuant to this subsection shall be determined as if such Participant were a Lender except that such Participant shall furnish all such required forms, certifications and statements to the Administrative Agent and to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased.

(c) Upon the request, and at the expense, of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Lender to which the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 2.14(a)(i) or 2.15, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall take reasonable steps to (i) afford the Borrower the opportunity to contest, and (ii) cooperate with the Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any taxes giving rise to such requirement to pay. The Administrative Agent and each Lender to which the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 2.14(a)(i) or 2.15 agrees, upon the request of the Borrower, to use its best efforts to take steps reasonably available to it and acceptable to the Borrower, including designating an alternative lending office or booking the affected Loan through another branch or an affiliate, if by doing so any such additional amounts will be avoided or materially reduced, provided that taking such steps results in no additional costs to such Lender (other than costs that are paid by the Borrower) and is not otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender, in such Lender’s sole discretion determined in good faith.

(d) If, under Section 2.15(b), a Lender or Participant fails to timely provide, or provides an incorrect, form, certificate or statement (or fails to timely provide a correct form, certificate or statement after the existing form, certificate or statement expires, becomes obsolete, or is rendered incorrect by the occurrence of any event) and, as a result thereof, the Borrower fails to withhold or deduct tax, such Lender or Participant shall indemnify the Borrower against any liability arising from such failure in excess of the amount the Borrower would have been required to pay such Lender or Participant as an additional amount pursuant to this Agreement had such form, certificate or statement been correct or duly or timely provided, as the case may be.

(e) If a Lender or the Administrative Agent receives a refund attributable to taxes for which the Borrower has made additional payments under Section 2.14(a)(1) or 2.15, which refund in the sole, good faith judgment of such Lender or Administrative Agent is allocable to such payments, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall timely pay such refund (together with any interest thereto received from the relevant taxing authority) to the Borrower, net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender or Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the Borrower shall promptly return such refund (free of all Non-Excluded Taxes) to the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as the case may be, upon receipt of written notice that such refund is required to be repaid to the relevant taxing authority.

Section 2.16. Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans or a conversion of Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include, in the case of any event described in clause (a) or (c) of the next preceding sentence, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the applicable interbank Eurocurrency market. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any amounts under the indemnity contained in this Section 2.16, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, stating (x) that one or more of the events described in clause (a), (b), or (c) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event or events, (y) as to the amount of the loss or expense sustained or incurred by such Lender as a consequence thereof and (z) as to the amount for which such Lender seeks indemnification hereunder and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.17. Certain Exclusions.

(a) If a Lender changes its applicable lending office (unless required to do so by a Governmental Authority or other regulatory authority) and the effect of that change, as of the date of the change, is to cause the Borrower to become obligated to pay any additional amount under Section 2.9(d) or (e), 2.14 or 2.15, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount.

(b) If, as a result of an assignment pursuant to Section 10.6(c), the Borrower would, immediately upon the effectiveness of such assignment, be obligated to pay an additional amount under Section 2.9(d) or (e), 2.14 or 2.15, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount.

(c) For purposes of Sections 2.14 and 2.15, the entry into force and implementation of any treaty between the United States and another country that has been signed as of the date hereof but has not yet been ratified shall not be treated as a change in treaty, law, regulation or application or interpretation thereof.

Section 2.18. Replacement of Lender. If the Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional amounts described in Section 2.9(d) or (e), 2.14 or 2.15 as a result of any condition described in such Section and payment of such amount is demanded by any Lender, then the Borrower may, on ten Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, cause such Lender to (and such Lender shall) assign pursuant to Section 10.6(c) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a Lender or other entity selected by the Borrower and acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s Loans and all accrued interest, commitment fees, Letter of Credit commissions, and other fees and amounts then due to such Lender hereunder, together with all losses and expenses of the types referred to in Section 2.16 payable with respect thereto.

Section 2.19. Increase in Commitments; Additional Lenders.

(a) So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on not more than four occasions after the Closing Date and on each occasion for an amount not less than $10,000,000, the Borrower may, upon at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly provide a copy of such notice to each Lender), propose to increase the Revolving Credit Commitments by an aggregate amount for all such occasions not to exceed $100,000,000 (the amount of any such increase, the “Additional Commitment Amount”). No Lender (or any successor thereto) shall have any obligation to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment or its other obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any decision by a Lender to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment shall be made in its sole discretion independently from any other Lender.

(b) In any such notice given by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19(a), the Borrower shall designate one or more banks or other financial institutions (which may be, but need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders) which at the time agree to, in the case of any such Person that is an existing Lender, increase its Revolving Credit Commitment, and in the case of any other such Person (an “Additional Lender”), become a party to this Agreement; provided, however, that any prospective Additional Lender must be acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender as determined by each of them acting in good faith. The sum of the increases in the Revolving Credit Commitments of the existing Lenders pursuant to this paragraph (b) plus the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Additional Lenders shall not in the aggregate exceed the unsubscribed amount of the Additional Commitment Amount.

(c) An increase in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall become effective upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of a supplement or joinder in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent executed by the Borrower, by each Additional Lender and by each other Lender whose Revolving Credit Commitment is to be increased, setting forth the new Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof, together with such Notes as may be requested by any existing Lenders or Additional Lenders to evidence any increased or new Revolving Credit Commitments, and such evidence of appropriate organizational authorization on the part of the Borrower and such opinions of counsel for the Borrower with respect to the increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

(d) Upon the acceptance of any such supplement or joinder by the Administrative Agent, Schedule 1.1(a) shall automatically be deemed amended to reflect the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders after giving effect to any Additional Lenders and any additions and increases in the Revolving Credit Commitments. The Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the existing Lenders not increasing their respective Revolving Credit Commitments and without further consent or authorization, enter into any such joinder or supplement or amendments to any other Loan Documents for purposes of giving effect to such additional and increased Revolving Credit Commitments.

(e) Upon any increase in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19 that is not pro rata among all existing Lenders, (x) the Borrower shall prepay all outstanding Revolving Credit Borrowings in their entirety and, to the extent the Borrower elects to do so and subject to the conditions specified in Section 5.2, the Borrower shall reborrow Revolving Credit Loans from the Lenders (including any Additional Lenders) in proportion to their respective Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to such increase, and (y) effective upon such increase, the amount of the participations held by each Lender in each Letter of Credit and all L/C Obligations then outstanding shall be adjusted automatically such that, after giving effect to such adjustments, the Lenders (including any Additional Lenders) shall hold participations in each such Letter of Credit and all L/C Obligations in proportion to their respective Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to such increase. In connection with any prepayment of Revolving Credit Borrowings pursuant to this Section 2.19(e) on the effective date of an increase of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid interest, fees, and Letter of Credit commissions in respect of such Revolving Credit Borrowings prepaid or deemed prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.19(e) and any outstanding Letters of Credit and L/C Obligations for which participations therein are deemed adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.19(e), together with any amounts due pursuant to Section 2.16 in respect of such prepayment.

Section 2.20. Determination of Dollar Amounts. The Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount of each of the following to the extent denominated in a Foreign Currency:

(a) each Eurocurrency Borrowing as of the date three Business Days prior to the date of such Borrowing or, if applicable, the date of conversion/continuation of any Revolving Credit Borrowing as a Eurocurrency Borrowing,

(b) the L/C Obligations as of the date of each request for the issuance, increase, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit; and

(c) all Outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit of the Lenders on and as of the last Business Day of each calendar month and, during the continuation of an Event of Default, on any other Business Day (but not more frequently than once each week) elected by the Administrative Agent in its discretion or upon instruction by the Required Lenders.

Each day upon or as of which the Administrative Agent determines Dollar Equivalent amounts as described in the preceding clauses (a), (b) and (c) is herein described as a “Computation Date” with respect to such amounts, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of all such determinations and related computations on such Computation Date.

Section 2.21. Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all applicable conditions referred to in Articles II, III, and V, with respect to any Borrowing or Letter of Credit to be denominated in any Foreign Currency, if (i) there shall occur on or prior to the date of such Borrowing or Letter of Credit 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 Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender make it impracticable for the Borrowing or Letter of Credit to be denominated in the Foreign Currency specified by the Borrower or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender a Dollar Equivalent amount of such Foreign Currency is not

readily calculable, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, as applicable, and (a) if a Borrowing, such Borrowing shall not be denominated in such Foreign Currency but shall be made on the requested date in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount (rounded up to the nearest $100,000) of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related request as ABR Loans, unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent prior to such Borrowing that (x) it elects not to borrow on such date or (y) 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 reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders be practicable and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related request, and (b) if a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit shall not be issued in such Foreign Currency, but shall be issued in Dollars in a face amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount of the face amount specified in the related request or Application for such Letter of Credit (rounded up to the nearest $100,000), unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent prior to the issuance of such Letter of Credit that (I) it elects not to request the issuance of such Letter of Credit on such date or (II) it elects to have such Letter of Credit issued on such date in a different Agreed Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Letter of Credit would in the reasonable opinion of the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders be practicable and in face amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount of the face amount specified in the related request or Application for such Letter of Credit, as the case may be.

Section 2.22. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Foreign 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 Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main New York City office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of each Loan Party in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, each Loan Party 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 Administrative 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 Administrative 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, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the applicable Loan Party.

ARTICLE III. LETTERS OF CREDIT

Section 3.1. L/C Commitment.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue standby and commercial letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor on any Business Day during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Lender; provided that, the Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to and shall

not issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment, (ii) the Outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit of all Lenders denominated in Foreign Currencies would exceed the Foreign Currency Sublimit, or (iii) any Lender’s Outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be a standby or commercial letter of credit denominated in an Agreed Currency and issued to support obligations of the Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor and its respective Subsidiaries, contingent or otherwise, arising in the ordinary course of business, and (ii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) one year after the date of issuance, and (y) five (5) Business Days prior to the Termination Date; provided, that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (but in no event for a period expiring after the date specified in the preceding clause (y)).

(b) Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the UCP or the ISP, as applicable, and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York.

(c) The Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law, or otherwise subject it to a Country Risk Event.

Section 3.2. Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor may from time to time request that the Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit denominated in an Agreed Currency by delivering to the Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Issuing Lender may reasonably request. Upon receipt of any fully completed Application, the Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall the Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the fully completed Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by the Issuing Lender and the Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor. The Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower and/or to the respective Subsidiary Guarantor promptly following the issuance thereof, and shall notify the Lenders of the issuance thereof.

Section 3.3. Fees, Commissions and Other Charges.

(a) The Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants, a commission with respect to each outstanding Letter of Credit, computed for the period from the Closing Date (in the case of the first such payment) or the date on which the last such payment was due (in all other cases) to the date upon which such payment is due hereunder, in each case equal to the L/C Fee, payable to the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants to be shared ratably among them in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Percentages, and (ii) to the Issuing Lender, a commission with respect to each Letter of Credit, computed for the period from the Closing Date (in the case of the first such payment) or the date on which the last such payment was due (in all other cases) to the date upon which such payment is due hereunder at the rate of 0.10% per annum of the average daily aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit during the period for which such fee is calculated, payable to the Issuing Lender. Such commissions shall be payable in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date and shall be nonrefundable.

(b) In addition to the foregoing fees and commissions, the Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor shall pay or reimburse the Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants all fees and commissions received by the Administrative Agent for their respective accounts pursuant to this Section.

Section 3.4. L/C Participations.

(a) The Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase, and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk, an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Percentage in the Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the amount of each drawing paid by the Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Issuing Lender that, if any amount is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender upon demand at the Administrative Agent’s Applicable Payment Office an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount of such drawing, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed. Any demand pursuant to the preceding sentence received after 2:00 P.M. on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant for the account of the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to the Issuing Lender within two Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal funds rate (or, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency, at the applicable Overnight Foreign Currency Rate), as quoted by the Issuing Lender, during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not in fact made available to the Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, the amount of such payment in the applicable Agreed Currency or, if so elected by the Issuing Lender, the Dollar Equivalent of such amount, in either case with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum then applicable to Eurocurrency Borrowings hereunder in the applicable Foreign Currency having an Interest Period of one month or, if the Issuing Lender has elected to receive the Dollar Equivalent of such amount, the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Borrowings hereunder. A certificate of the Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(c) Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and any L/C Participant has paid its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), the Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by the Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Issuing Lender will as soon as practicable distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by the Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by the Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to the Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it.

Section 3.5. Reimbursement Obligation. The Borrower or the Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to reimburse the Issuing Lender on each date on which the Issuing Lender notifies the Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor of the date and amount of a drawing under any Letter of Credit that has been paid by the Issuing Lender in an amount equal to (a) the amount of the drawing so paid and (b) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses reasonably incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with any payment made by the Issuing Lender under, or with respect to, such Letter of Credit. Each such payment shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender at the Applicable Payment Office in immediately available funds in the Agreed Currency in which the Letter of Credit was denominated. Interest shall be payable on any and all amounts remaining unpaid by the Borrower under this Section from the date such amounts become payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) until the next Business Day following the date of such notice, at the ABR then in effect (in the case of amounts payable in Dollars) or at the rate per annum then applicable hereunder to Eurocurrency Borrowings in the applicable Foreign Currency having an Interest Period of one month (in the case of amounts payable in Foreign Currencies), and from such Business Day until payment in full at the rate which would be payable on any outstanding ABR Borrowings that were then overdue (in the case of amounts payable in Dollars) or at the rate then applicable to Eurocurrency Borrowings in the applicable Foreign Currency having an Interest Period of one month that were then overdue (in the case of amounts payable in Foreign Currencies). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall have joint and several liability with the respective Subsidiary Guarantor for all L/C Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor.

Section 3.6. Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s and the respective Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under this Article III shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower and the respective Subsidiary Guarantor may have or have had against the Issuing Lender or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit. The Borrower and the respective Subsidiary Guarantor also agree with the Issuing Lender that the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s and the respective Subsidiary Guarantor’s L/C Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee provided that this paragraph shall not relieve the Issuing Lender of any liability resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender, or otherwise affect any defenses or other right that the Borrower may have as a result of any such gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions caused by the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Borrower and the respective Subsidiary Guarantor agree that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence of willful misconduct and in accordance with the standards or care specified in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, shall be binding on the Borrower and on the respective Subsidiary Guarantor and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor.

Section 3.7. Letter of Credit Payments. If any draw shall be made under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower or the respective Subsidiary Guarantor in connection with any such draw under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including any draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

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

Section 3.9. Existing Letters of Credit. For all purposes of this Agreement, each of the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued by the Issuing Lender on the Closing Date pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and shall be subject to, and governed by, all terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation, Sections 3.3 and 3.4, on and after the Closing Date.

ARTICLE IV. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

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

Section 4.1. Financial Condition. The consolidated balance sheet of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 29, 2007 and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal year ended on such date, reported on by KPMG LLP copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, present fairly the consolidated financial condition of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the fiscal year then ended. All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by such accountants and as disclosed therein). The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 29, 2008 and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal quarter ended on such date, certified by a Responsible Officer, copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (except as permitted by Form 10-Q under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) applied consistently throughout the periods involved, and present fairly the consolidated financial condition of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the fiscal quarter then ended (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments). Neither the Parent nor any of its consolidated Subsidiaries had, at March 29, 2008, any material Guarantee Obligation, contingent liability or liability for taxes, or any long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term commitment, including, without limitation, any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction, which is not reflected in the foregoing statements or in the notes thereto. During the period from March 29, 2008 to and including the Closing Date, there has been no sale, transfer or other disposition by the Parent or any of its consolidated Subsidiaries of any material part of its business or property and no purchase or other acquisition of any business or property (including any capital stock of any other Person) material in relation to the consolidated financial condition of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries at March 29, 2008.

Section 4.2. No Change. Since March 29, 2008 (a) there has been no development or event which has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (b) except as permitted by Section 7.8 of this Agreement or Section 7.8 of the Existing Credit Agreement, no dividends or other distributions have been declared, paid or made upon the Capital Stock of the Borrower or the Parent nor has any of the Capital Stock of the Borrower or the Parent been redeemed, retired, purchased or otherwise acquired for value by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 4.3. Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law. Each of the Parent and its Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization under the name (as of the date hereof) set forth in its respective signature line hereto, (b) has the corporate power and authority to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to so qualify, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.4. Organizational Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the corporate or other applicable organizational power and authority to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to borrow hereunder, and has taken all corporate or other applicable organizational action necessary to be taken by it to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the Borrowings on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Applications and the other Loan Documents. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required to be made or obtained by the Borrower or any other Loan Party in connection with the Borrowings hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, except (a) consents and filings which will have been obtained or made and will be in full force and effect on the Closing Date and (b) such consents and filings which, individually or in the aggregate, if not obtained, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. This Agreement has been, and, as of the Closing Date, each other Loan Document will be, duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document when executed and delivered will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party thereto, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

Section 4.5. No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents, the Borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation of the Parent or of any of its Subsidiaries and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of its or their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any such Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation (it being understood that the use of the proceeds of the Borrowings to provide a portion of the funds necessary to purchase any asset with respect to which the remainder of the purchase price is financed by Indebtedness permitted under Sections 7.2(c), 7.2(e) or 7.2(r) that is secured by a Lien on such asset permitted by Sections 7.3(g) or 7.3(h) does not constitute the use of the proceeds of a Borrowing resulting in the creation or imposition of any Lien for purposes of this Section).

Section 4.6. No Material Litigation. Except as may be disclosed in the Parent’s report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the period ended March 29, 2008, no litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened by or against the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or against any of its or their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (b) which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.7. No Default. Neither the Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Section 4.8. Ownership of Property; Liens. Each of the Parent and its Subsidiaries has good record and marketable title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other property, and none of such property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 7.3.

Section 4.9. Intellectual Property. The Parent and each of its Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, technology, know-how and processes necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted except for those the failure to own or license which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (the “Intellectual Property”). No claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, nor does the Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim except for any such claim which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The use of such Intellectual Property by the Parent and its Subsidiaries does not infringe on the rights of any Person, except for such claims and infringements that, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.10. No Burdensome Restrictions. No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.11. Taxes. Each of the Parent and its Subsidiaries has filed or caused to be filed all Federal and other material tax returns which, to the knowledge of the Parent or the Borrower, are required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments (of which notice has been received by it) made against it or any of its property and all other material taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than any the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Parent or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be); no material tax Lien has been filed, and, to the knowledge of the Parent or the Borrower, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge.

Section 4.12. Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loans will be used for “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as now and from time to time hereafter in effect or for any purpose which violates the provisions of the regulations of such Board of Governors.

Section 4.13. ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, no Plan has failed to satisfy the minimum funding standard applicable to such Plan (as determined pursuant to Section 412 of the Code and Section 302 of ERISA) for any plan year during such period, and each Single Employer Plan, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, each Multiemployer Plan, has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred other than a standard termination pursuant to Section 4041(b) of ERISA, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period. The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to find such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any liability under ERISA if the Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, which (in the aggregate with the liabilities which have been incurred with respect to all such withdrawals which have occurred since the Closing Date) would exceed $10,000,000. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has or could have any obligation to contribute to, or any liability with respect to, any Plan, program or arrangement providing for post-retirement welfare benefits, except as may be required pursuant to Section 4980B of the Code or Section 601 of ERISA.

Section 4.14. Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. The Borrower is not an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Borrower is not subject to regulation under any Federal or State statute or regulation which limits its ability to incur Indebtedness.

Section 4.15. Subsidiaries. The Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 4.15 hereto constitute all the Subsidiaries of the Borrower and the Parent at the date hereof.

Section 4.16. Purpose of Loans. The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Borrowings shall be used by the Borrower to repay indebtedness outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and to provide funding for the general corporate purposes of the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors, including working capital.

Section 4.17. Environmental Matters. To the knowledge of the Borrower, each of the representations and warranties set forth in paragraphs (a) through (f) of this Section is true and correct, except to the extent that such failures to be so true and correct are disclosed in Schedule 4.17 hereto:

(a) The facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Properties”) do not contain, and have not previously contained, any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations which (i) constitute or constituted a violation of, or (ii) could reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law except in either case insofar as such violation or liability, or any aggregation thereof, is not reasonably likely to result in the payment of a Material Environmental Amount.

(b) The Properties and all operations at the Properties are in compliance, and have in the last 5 years been in compliance, in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws, and there is no contamination at, under or about the Properties or violation of any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the business operated by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Business”) which could reasonably be expected to materially interfere with the continued operation of, or materially impair the fair saleable value of, the Properties taken as a whole.

(c) Neither the Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability regarding environmental matters or compliance with Environmental Laws with regard to any of the Properties or the Business, nor does the Parent or the Borrower have knowledge or reason to believe that any such notice will be received or is being threatened except insofar as such notice or threatened notice, or any aggregation thereof, does not involve a matter or matters that is or are reasonably likely to result in the payment of a Material Environmental Amount.

(d) Materials of Environmental Concern have not been transported or disposed of from the Properties in violation of, or in a manner or to a location which could reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law, nor have any Materials of Environmental Concern been generated, treated, stored or disposed of at, on or under any of the Properties in violation of, or in a manner that could reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, any applicable Environmental Law except insofar as any such violation or liability referred to in this paragraph, or any aggregation thereof, is not reasonably likely to result in the payment of a Material Environmental Amount.

(e) No judicial proceeding or governmental or administrative action is pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent or the Borrower, threatened, under any Environmental Law to which the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is or will be named as a party with respect to the Properties or the Business, nor are there any consent decrees or other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other orders, or other administrative or judicial requirements outstanding under any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the Business except insofar as such proceeding, action, decree, order or other requirement, or any aggregation thereof, is not reasonably likely to result in the payment of a material Environmental Amount.

(f) There has been no release or threat of release of Materials of Environmental Concern at or from the Properties, or arising from or related to the operations of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the Properties or otherwise in connection with the Business, in violation of or in amounts or in a manner that could reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under Environmental Laws except insofar as any such violation or liability referred to in this paragraph, or any aggregation thereof, is not reasonably likely to result in the payment of a Material Environmental Amount.

thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.

(whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that, no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

counsel to the Administrative Agent, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender and the Administrative Agent for all its reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and to the several Lenders (but excluding any transfer or similar taxes arising solely from the event of an assignment by a Lender under Section 10.6(c)), (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and the Administrative Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other similar taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents (but excluding any such taxes arising solely from the event of an assignment by a Lender under Section 10.6(c)), and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and the Administrative Agent harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing relating to the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “indemnified liabilities”); provided that, the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to indemnified liabilities arising from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or (ii) legal proceedings commenced against the Administrative Agent or any Lender by any security holder or creditor thereof arising out of and based upon rights afforded any such security holder or creditor solely in its capacity as such. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in clause (c) above, the Borrower shall have no obligation under this Section 10.5 to the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority. The agreements in this subsection shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 10.6. Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each of the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, all future holders of the Loans and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Loan Party may assign or transfer (other than in connection with a merger, liquidation or consolidation permitted by Section 7.5) any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender.

(b) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, provided, that the amount of the Commitment sold to such Participant pursuant to such participation (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such participation) shall not be less than $2,500,000. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan (and any Note evidencing such Loan) for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and such Participant shall have no right to approve any amendment or waiver of any

provision of any Loan Document, or to consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would extend the maturity of or reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the Loans are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, provided that, in purchasing such participating interest, such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as provided in Section 10.7(a) as fully as if it were a Lender hereunder. The Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14 and 2.15 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time as if it was a Lender; provided that, in the case of Section 2.15, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said Section; and provided, further, that the Borrower shall not be required to pay, in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant, any greater amount pursuant to any such subsections than the Borrower would have been required to pay in respect of the amount of the Loans subject to such participation had no such transfer occurred.

(c) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of (a) the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Assignee, and (b) the Administrative Agent and (c) the Issuing Lender, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of Exhibit F, executed by such Assignee, such assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender (and, in the case of an Assignee that is not then a Lender or a Lender Affiliate, by the Borrower, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register, provided, that the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of the assigning Lender assigned pursuant to such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment) shall not be less than $2,500,000. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Commitment as set forth therein, and (y) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto and shall have no further rights except as set forth in the Assignment and Acceptance).

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.2 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Revolving Credit Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, and Notes, if any, evidencing such Loans held by, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loan recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee (and, in the case of an Assignee that is not then a Lender or an affiliate thereof, by the Administrative Agent) together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500, the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the Borrower. On or prior to such effective date, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall, upon receipt of a written request from the Assignee, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Note to the order of such Assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning Lender has retained a Commitment hereunder and so requests it, a replacement Note to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be dated the Closing Date and otherwise shall be in the form of Exhibit A or Exhibit B hereto. The Note or Notes surrendered by the assigning Lender shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower marked “cancelled”.

(f) The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee (subject to the provisions of Section 10.16 hereof) any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrower and its Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement.

(g) Nothing herein shall prohibit any Lender from pledging or assigning any Note, together with its rights hereunder, to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law.

Section 10.7. Adjustments; Set-off.

(a) If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans or the Reimbursement Obligations owing to it, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in paragraph (f) of Article VIII, or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans or the Reimbursement Obligations owing to it, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loan or the Reimbursement Obligations owing to it, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document and the expiration of any applicable period of grace provided for herein or in any other Loan Document (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

Section 10.8. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (and by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Except as provided in Section 5.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

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

(a) Not later than 2:00 P.M.

Section 10.20. Currency Conversion. All payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, except for Loans funded, or Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Letters of Credit issued, in a Foreign Currency, which shall be repaid, including interest thereon, in such Foreign Currency. If any payment by the Borrower or the proceeds of any collateral, shall be made in a currency other than the currency required hereunder, such amount shall be converted into the currency required hereunder at the rate determined by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, as applicable, as the rate quoted by it in accordance with methods customarily used by such Person for such or similar purposes as the spot rate for the purchase by such Person of the required currency with the currency of actual payment through its principal foreign exchange trading office (including, in the case of the Administrative Agent, any Affiliate) at approximately 11:00 A.M. (Local Time at such office) two Business Days prior to the effective date of such conversion; provided that, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, as applicable, may obtain such spot rate from another financial institution actively engaged in foreign currency exchange if the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, as applicable, does not then have a spot rate for the required currency. The parties hereto hereby agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so under applicable law, that (i) if for the purposes of obtaining any judgment or award it becomes necessary to convert from any currency other than the currency required hereunder into the currency required hereunder any amount in connection with the Obligations, then the conversion shall be made as provided above on the Business Day before the day on which the judgment or award is given, (ii) in the event that there is a change in the applicable

conversion rate prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment or award is given and the date of payment, the Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, such additional amounts (if any) as may be necessary, and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, will pay to the Borrower such excess amounts (if any) as result from such change in the rate of exchange, to assure that the amount paid on such date is the amount in such other currency, which when converted at the conversion rate described herein on the date of payment, is the amount then due in the currency required hereunder, and (iii) any amount due from the Borrower under this Section 10.20 shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment or award being obtained for any other sum due.

Section 10.21. No Margin Stock Collateral. Each of the Lenders represents to the Administrative Agent, each of the other Lenders and the Borrower that it in good faith is not, directly or indirectly (by negative pledge or otherwise), relying upon any margin stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) as collateral in the extension or maintenance of the credit provided for in this Agreement.

Section 10.22. Termination of Commitments under Existing Credit Agreement. Each of the Loan Parties and the Lenders that is also a party to the Existing Credit Agreement hereby agrees that, as of the Effective Date, all of the commitments to extend credit under the Existing Credit Agreement will be terminated automatically, the Existing Credit Agreement shall be terminated and of no further force or effect (except as otherwise expressly provided therein to survive the termination thereof), and any and all conditions precedent or required notice periods in connection with such termination are hereby waived and of no further force and effect.

SCHEDULE 1.1(D)

MANDATORY COSTS

1.		The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank.

2.		On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Administrative Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

3.		The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Lending Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Administrative Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that Lending Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of Loans made from that Lending Office.

4.		The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Lending Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows:

(a) in relation to a sterling Loan:


AB+C(B-D)+E x 0.01
100-(A+C)		per cent. per annum

(b) in relation to a Loan in any currency other than sterling:


E x 0.01
300		per cent. per annum.

Where:

A is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.

B is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Margin and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an unpaid sum, the additional rate of interest specified in paragraph (c) of Section 2.9 (Default Rate) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan.

C is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

D is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Administrative Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits.

E is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Administrative Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.

For the purposes of this Exhibit:

(a) “Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

(b) “Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

(c) “Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and

(d) “Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.

In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 per cent. will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places.

If requested by the Administrative Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Administrative Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

8.		Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:

(a)		the jurisdiction of its Lending Office; and

(b)		any other information that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

		Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

9.		The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Lending Office in the same jurisdiction as its Lending Office.

10.		The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects.

11.		The Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above.

12.		Any determination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Exhibit in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties.

13.		The Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Borrower and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Exhibit in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Landstar System Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), is party to the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 27, 2008, with Landstar System, Inc., the Subsidiaries of the Borrower that are signatories thereto, the Administrative Agent, and the lenders parties thereto (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”);

WHEREAS, in connection with the Credit Agreement, the Guarantor and the Administrative Agent wish to enter into this Parent Guarantee as hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the Guarantor and the Administrative Agent, with the consent of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, hereby agree that:

1. Defined Terms. As used in this Guarantee, terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined, and the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Obligations” shall mean the unpaid principal of and interest on (including, without limitation, interest accruing after the maturity of the Loans and interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Borrower, whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding) the Loans and all other obligations and liabilities of the Borrower or Reimbursement Obligations or other L/C Obligations to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter incurred, which may arise under, out of, or in connection with, the Credit Agreement, the Letters of Credit, the Applications, any Interest Rate Protection Agreements entered into with any Lenders, the other Loan Documents or any other document made, delivered or given in connection therewith, whether on account of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations and other L/C Obligations, fees, Letter of Credit commissions, indemnities, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent or any Lender that are required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement) or otherwise.

101

2. Guarantee. (a) The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment by the Borrower when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations, in lawful money of the United States or any other Agreed Currency in which such Obligations may be payable, and the Guarantor further agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, the Guarantor under this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations are paid in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto the Borrower may be free from any Obligations. This Guarantee is a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection.

(b) No payment or payments made by the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments other than payments made by the Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or payments received or collected from the Guarantor in respect of the Obligations, remain liable for the Obligations until the Obligations are paid in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated.

(c) The Guarantor agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, it shall make any payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of its liability hereunder, it will notify the Administrative Agent in writing that such payment is made under this Guarantee for such purpose.

3. Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in the Credit Agreement, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes each Lender at any time and from time to time without notice to the Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by the Guarantor, to set off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as such Lender may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor to such Lender hereunder and claims of every nature and description of such Lender against the Guarantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or otherwise, as such Lender may elect, whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Lender has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees to notify the Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this paragraph are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which such Lender may have.

4. No Subrogation, Contribution, Reimbursement or Indemnity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guarantee, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives all rights which may have arisen in connection with this Guarantee to be subrogated to any of the rights (whether contractual, under the Bankruptcy Code, including Section 509 thereof, under common law or otherwise) of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Company or against the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations. The Guarantor hereby further irrevocably waives all

102

contractual, common law, statutory or other rights of reimbursement, contribution, exoneration or indemnity (or any similar right) from or against the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any other Person which may have arisen in connection with this Guarantee. So long as the Obligations remain outstanding, if any amount shall be paid by or on behalf of the Borrower, or any Subsidiary Guarantor, to the Guarantor on account of any of the rights waived in this paragraph, such amount shall be held by the Guarantor in trust, segregated from other funds of the Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by the Guarantor (duly indorsed by the Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the term of this Guarantee and the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments.

5. Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights. The Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by the Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by such party and any of the Obligations continued, and the obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Lender and the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or other guarantee or document in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent and/or any Lender may deem advisable from time to time, and any guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held as security for the obligations or for this Guarantee or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the Borrower or any guarantor, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such demand or to collect any payments from the Borrower or such other guarantor or any release of the Borrower or such other guarantor shall not relieve the Guarantor, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

6. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. The Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, the obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon this Guarantee; and all dealings between the Borrower or the Guarantor and the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. The Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or the Guarantor with respect to the Obligations. The Guarantor understands and agrees that this Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or the Guarantor)

103

which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for the obligations, or of the Guarantor under this Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower or any such other Person or to realize upon any such guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower or any such other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Guarantor. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantor and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, until all the obligations and the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall have been satisfied by payment in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement the Borrower may be free from any Obligations.

7. Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or the Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or the Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

8. Payments. The Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars or other Agreed Currency in which such Obligations are payable at the office of the Administrative Agent located at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10017, U.S.A. or such Applicable Payment Office as may be specified for any of the Obligations payable in any other Agreed Currency.

9. Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of the Credit Agreement as they relate to the Guarantor, each of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference, are true and correct, and the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to rely on each of them as if they were fully set forth herein, provided that each reference in each such representation and warranty to the Borrower’s knowledge shall, for the purposes of this paragraph, be deemed to be a reference to the Guarantor’s knowledge.

The Guarantor agrees that the foregoing representations and warranties shall be deemed to have been made by the Guarantor on the date of each borrowing by the Borrower, and on the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, under the Credit Agreement on and as of such date of borrowing or issuance as though made hereunder on and as of such date (or, if stated to relate to an earlier date, as of such earlier date).

10. Covenants. The Guarantor hereby agrees that, from and after the Closing Date and so long as the Revolving Credit Commitments remain in effect, any Loan or Letter of Credit remains outstanding and unpaid or any other amount is owing to any Lender or the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Guarantor shall take, or shall refrain from taking,

104

as the case may be, all actions that are necessary to be taken or not taken so that no violation of any provision, covenant or agreement contained in Articles VI or VII of the Credit Agreement, and so that no Default or Event of Default, is caused by any act or failure to act of the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

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

12. Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings used in this Guarantee are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

13. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to paragraph 14 hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or such Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

14. Integration; Waivers and Amendments; Successors and Assigns; Governing Law. This Guarantee and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the Guarantor with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises or representations by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not reflected herein or in the other Loan Documents. None of the terms or provisions of this Guarantee may be waived, amended or supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by the Guarantor and the Administrative Agent, provided that any provision of this Guarantee may be waived by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in a letter or agreement executed by the Administrative Agent or by e-mail or facsimile transmission from the Administrative Agent. This Guarantee shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns. This Guarantee shall be governed by and be construed and interpreted in accordance with the law of the State of New York.

105

15. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Guarantor or the Administrative Agent or any Lender to be effective shall be in writing (including by telecopy), and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered by hand, or, in the case of mail, 3 days after deposit in the postal system, first class postage prepaid, or, in the case of telecopy notice, when received, addressed to a party at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement, in the case of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or, in the case of the Guarantor, to the following address:

16. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Guarantor 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 Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main New York City office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Guarantor in respect of any sum due 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 any holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), 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 holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, in the specified currency, the Guarantor agrees to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), 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 holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) amounts shared with other holders of Obligations as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such other holder of Obligations under Section 2.12 of the Credit Agreement, such holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, agrees, by accepting the benefits hereof, to remit such excess to the Guarantor.

17. Counterparts. This Guarantee may be executed by one or more of the parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by any of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any of the Subsidiary Guarantors by any Lender, no Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any guarantee or right of offset held by any Lender for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall any Subsidiary Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on account of the Obligations are paid in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Subsidiary Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Subsidiary Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Subsidiary Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.

6. Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights. Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Subsidiary Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Subsidiary Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by such party and any of the obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or

110

right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Lender and the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any other collateral security document or other guarantee or document in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent and/or any Lender may deem advisable from time to time, and any guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held as security for the Obligations or for this Guarantee or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against any of the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor or guarantor, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such demand or to collect any payments from the Borrower or any such other Subsidiary Guarantor or guarantor or any release of the Borrower or such other Subsidiary Guarantor or guarantor shall not relieve any of the Subsidiary Guarantors in respect of which a demand or collection is not made or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors not so released of their several obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against any of the Subsidiary Guarantors. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

7. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon this Guarantee; and all dealings between the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors with respect to the Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor understands and agrees that this Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any of the obligations or any guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for the Obligations, or of such Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower or any other Person or against any guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower or any such other Person or to realize upon such guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower or any such other Person or such guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve such Subsidiary Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against such Subsidiary Guarantor. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon each Subsidiary Guarantor and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, until all the Obligations and the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guarantee shall have been satisfied by payment in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement the Borrower may be free from any Obligations.

111

8. Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

9. Payments. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars or other Agreed Currency in which such Obligations are payable at the office of the Administrative Agent located at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10017, U.S.A. or such Applicable Payment Office as may be specified for any of the Obligations payable in any other Agreed Currency.

10. Representations and Warranties. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of the Credit Agreement as they relate to such Subsidiary Guarantor, each of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference, are true and correct, and the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to rely on each of them as if they were fully set forth herein, provided that each reference in each such representation and warranty to the Borrower’s knowledge shall, for the purposes of this paragraph, be deemed to be a reference to such Subsidiary Guarantor’s knowledge.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that the foregoing representations and warranties shall be deemed to have been made by such Subsidiary Guarantor on the date of each borrowing by the Borrower, and on the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, under the Credit Agreement on and as of such date of borrowing or issuance as though made hereunder on and as of such date (or, if stated to relate to an earlier date, as of such earlier date).

11. Covenants. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that, from and after the Closing Date and so long as the Revolving Credit Commitments remain in effect, any Loan or Letter of Credit remains outstanding and unpaid or any other amount is owing to any Lender or the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall take, or shall refrain from taking, as the case may be, all actions that are necessary to be taken or not taken so that no violation of any provision, covenant or agreement contained in Articles VI or VII of the Credit Agreement, and so that no Default or Event of Default, is caused by any act or failure to act of such Subsidiary Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

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

112

13. Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings used in this Guarantee are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

14. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to paragraph 15 hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or such Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

15. Integration; Waivers and Amendments; Successors and Assigns; Governing Law. This Guarantee and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of each Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises or representations by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not reflected herein or in the other Loan Documents. None of the terms or provisions of this Guarantee may be waived, amended or supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by each Subsidiary Guarantor and the Administrative Agent, provided that any provision of this Guarantee may be waived by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in a letter or agreement executed by the Administrative Agent or by telex or facsimile transmission from the Administrative Agent. This Guarantee shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Subsidiary Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns. This Guarantee shall be governed by and be construed and interpreted in accordance with the law of the State of New York.

16. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Subsidiary Guarantors or the Administrative Agent or any Lender to be effective shall be in writing (including by telecopy), and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered by hand, or, in the case of mail, 3 days after deposit in the postal system, first class postage prepaid, or, in the case of telecopy notice, when received, addressed to a party at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement for the Subsidiary Guarantors.

17. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Subsidiary Guarantor 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 Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main New York City office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of any sum due 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 any holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), 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 holder of Obligations

113

(including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, in the specified currency, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), 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 holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) amounts shared with other holders of Obligations as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such other holder of Obligations under Section 2.12 of the Credit Agreement, such holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, agrees, by accepting the benefits hereof, to remit such excess to such Subsidiary Guarantor.

18. Counterparts. This Guarantee may be executed by one or more of the parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, certain Subsidiaries of the Guarantor (collectively, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) are parties to the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 27, 2008, with Landstar System Holdings, Inc., the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent, and the lenders parties thereto (the “Credit Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Guarantor owns directly or indirectly all of the issued and outstanding stock of each Subsidiary Guarantor and expects to derive substantial benefits from the Credit Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and to induce the Lenders to make their respective loans and other extensions of credit to the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Credit Agreement, the Guarantor hereby agrees with the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, as follows:

1. Defined Terms. As used in this Guarantee, terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined, and the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Guarantee” shall mean this L/C Guarantee, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.

“Obligations” shall mean the unpaid principal of and interest on (including, without limitation, interest accruing after the maturity of the Loans and interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, owing by the respective Subsidiary Guarantor, whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding) the Loans and all other obligations and liabilities of the respective Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter incurred, which may arise under, out of, or in connection with, the Credit Agreement, the Letters of Credit, the Applications entered into with the Issuing Lender in respect of the Letters of Credit, the other Loan Documents or any other document made, delivered or given in connection therewith, whether on account of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations and other L/C Obligations, fees, Letter of Credit commissions, indemnities, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant that are required to be paid by the respective Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement) or otherwise.

2. Guarantee. (a) The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment by each respective Subsidiary Guarantor when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations, in lawful money of the United States or any other Agreed Currency in which such Obligations may be payable, and the Guarantor further agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, all

117

reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, the Guarantor under this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until the obligations are paid in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantors may be free from any Obligations. This Guarantee is a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection.

(b) No payment or payments made by any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant from any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments other than payments made by the Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or payments received or collected from the Guarantor in respect of the Obligations, remain liable for the Obligations until the Obligations are paid in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated.

(c) The Guarantor agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, it shall make any payment to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant on account of its liability hereunder, it will notify the Administrative Agent in writing that such payment is made under this Guarantee for such purpose.

3. Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in the Credit Agreement, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant at any time and from time to time without notice to the Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by the Guarantor, to set off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Issuing Lender or such L/C Participant to or for the credit or the account of the Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Issuing Lender or such L/C Participant may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor to the Issuing Lender or such L/C Participant hereunder and claims of every nature and description of the Issuing Lender or such L/C Participant against the Guarantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or otherwise, as such Lender may elect, whether or not the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. The Issuing Lender and each L/C Participant agree to notify the Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by the Issuing Lender or such L/C Participant, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Issuing Lender and each L/C Participant under this paragraph are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Issuing Lender and such L/C Participant may have.

4. No Subrogation, Contribution, Reimbursement or Indemnity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guarantee, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives all rights which may have arisen in connection with this Guarantee to be subrogated to any of the rights (whether contractual, under the Bankruptcy Code, including section 509 thereof, under common law or otherwise) of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant against the Company or against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant for the payment of the obligations. The Guarantor hereby further irrevocably waives all contractual, common law, statutory or other rights of

118

reimbursement, contribution, exoneration or indemnity (or any similar right) from or against any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person which may have arisen in connection with this Guarantee. So long as the obligations remain outstanding, if any amount shall be paid by or on behalf of any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Guarantor on account of any of the rights waived in this paragraph, such amount shall be held by the Guarantor in trust, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by the Guarantor (duly indorsed by the Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the term of this Guarantee and the payment in bill of the obligations and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments.

5. Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights. The Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by the Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant may be rescinded by such party and any of the obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant and the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or other guarantee or document in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and/or any L/C Participant may deem advisable from time to time, and any guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. When making any demand hereunder against the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the respective Subsidiary Guarantor or any guarantor, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such demand or to collect any payments from such respective Subsidiary Guarantor or such other guarantor or any release of such respective Subsidiary Guarantor or such other guarantor shall not relieve the Guarantor, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant against the Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

6. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. The Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon this Guarantee; and all dealings between the respective Subsidiary Guarantor or the Guarantor and the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. The Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the respective Subsidiary Guarantor or the Guarantor with respect to the Obligations. The Guarantor understands and agrees that this Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any of the Obligations or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the respective Subsidiary Guarantor against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge

119

of the respective Subsidiary Guarantor or the Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the respective Subsidiary Guarantor for the Obligations, or of the Guarantor under this Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and any L/C Participant may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the respective Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person or against any guarantee for the obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the respective Subsidiary Guarantor or any such other Person or to realize upon any such guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the respective Subsidiary Guarantor or any such other Person or any such guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant against the Guarantor. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantor and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants, and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, until all the Obligations and the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall have been satisfied by payment in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement the respective Subsidiary Guarantor may be free from any Obligations.

7. Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the respective Subsidiary Guarantor or the Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the respective Subsidiary Guarantor or the Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

9. Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of the Credit Agreement as they relate to the Guarantor, each of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference, are true and correct, and the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and each L/C Participant shall be entitled to rely on each of them as if they were fully set forth herein, provided that each reference in each such representation and warranty to the respective Subsidiary Guarantor’s knowledge shall, for the purposes of this paragraph, be deemed to be a reference to the Guarantor’s knowledge.

The Guarantor agrees that the foregoing representations and warranties shall be deemed to have been made by the Guarantor on the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, under the Credit Agreement on and as of such date of issuance as though made hereunder on and as of such date (or, if stated to relate to an earlier date, as of such earlier date).

10. Covenants. The Guarantor hereby agrees that, from and after the Closing Date and so long as any Letter of Credit remains outstanding and unpaid or any other amount is owing to the Issuing Lender, any L/C Participant or the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Guarantor shall take, or shall refrain from taking, as the case may be, all actions that are necessary to be taken or not taken so that no violation of any provision, covenant or agreement contained in Articles VI or VII of the Credit Agreement, and so that no Default or Event of Default, is caused by any act or failure to act of the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

120

13. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender nor any L/C Participant shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to paragraph 14 hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or such L/C Participant would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

14. Integration; Waivers and Amendments; Successors and Assigns; Governing Law. This Guarantee and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the Guarantor with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises or representations by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant relative to the subject matter hereof not reflected herein or in the other Loan Documents. None of the terms or provisions of this Guarantee may be waived, amended or supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by the Guarantor and the Administrative Agent, provided that any provision of this Guarantee may be waived by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants in a letter or agreement executed by the Administrative Agent or by e-mail or facsimile transmission from the Administrative Agent. This Guarantee shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants and their respective successors and assigns. This Guarantee shall be governed by and be construed and interpreted in accordance with the law of the State of New York.

15. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Guarantor or the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to be effective shall be in writing (including by telecopy), and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered by hand, or, in the case of mail, 3 days after deposit in the postal system, first class postage prepaid, or, in the case of telecopy notice, when received, addressed to a party at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement, in the case of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the L/C Participants or, in the case of the Guarantor, to the following address:

16. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Guarantor 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 Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main New York City office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Guarantor in respect of any sum due 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 any holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender), 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 holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, in the specified currency, the Guarantor agrees to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender), 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 holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) amounts shared with other holders of Obligations as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such other holder of Obligations under Section 2.12 of the Credit Agreement, such holder of Obligations (including the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender), as the case may be, agrees, by accepting the benefits hereof, to remit such excess to the Guarantor.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Guarantor has caused this Guarantee to be duly executed and delivered by its duly authorized officer as of the day and year first above written.
