SECTION 2

Amount and Terms of Credit

2.1 Commitments.

(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make senior secured bridge loans (the “Bridge Loans”) to the Borrower on the Closing Date in a principal amount not to exceed such Lender’s Bridge Loan Commitment. The Bridge Loans may be repaid or prepaid (without premium or penalty) in accordance with the provisions hereof, but once repaid or prepaid, may not be reborrowed.

(b) The Bridge Loan Commitments shall be automatically and permanently terminated on the Closing Date upon the funding of the Bridge Loans; provided that the Bridge Loan Commitments shall automatically terminate if the Bridge Loans have not been borrowed by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on September 29, 2023.

2.2 Notices of Borrowing.

(a) For the borrowing of Bridge Loans on the Closing Date, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office, an executed Notice of Borrowing prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day prior to the Closing Date (or such shorter notice as is approved by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion). The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.2 (and the contents thereof), and of each Lender’s pro rata share of the requested borrowing.

48

(b) The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of the Bridge Loans in accordance with the terms of the Notice of Borrowing or other written instructions from any Authorized Officer of the Borrower.

(c) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any notice it shall give hereunder by telephone (which such obligation is absolute), the Administrative Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower.

(d) The notice in respect of any Bridge Loans on the Closing Date may be rescinded or revised to change the requested date for the making of the Loans contemplated thereby, by the Borrower by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) (or, such later time as the Administrative Agent may approve in its sole discretion) on the date of the proposed borrowing.

2.3 Disbursement of Funds.

(a) No later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Lender shall make available its pro rata portion, if any, of each borrowing requested to be made on such date in the manner provided below; provided that on the Closing Date, such funds may be made available at such time as may be agreed among the Lenders, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent for the purpose of consummating the Transactions.

(b) Each Lender shall make available all amounts it is to fund to the Borrower under any borrowing for its applicable Commitments, and in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office and the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrower, by depositing to an account or accounts designated by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent the aggregate of the amounts so made available in Dollars. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of any such borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the borrowing to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of borrowing, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) 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 and the Administrative Agent has made available such amount to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay (or cause to be paid) such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent in Dollars. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if paid by such Lender, the Overnight Rate or (ii) if paid by the Borrower, the then-applicable rate of interest or fees, calculated in accordance with Section 2.6, for the respective Loans.

(c) Nothing in this Section 2.3 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder).

2.4 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) If any of the Bridge Loans are outstanding on the Bridge Loan Rollover Date, then on the Bridge Loan Rollover Date the then outstanding principal amount of such Bridge Loans will automatically be converted into senior secured term loans (any such term loans which have been so converted, “Extended Term Loans”) that mature and are due on the date that is five years after the Closing Date (such date (i.e., September 28, 2028), the “Extended Term Loan Maturity Date”). Upon the conversion of the Bridge Loans into Extended Term Loans, each Lender shall cancel on its records a principal amount of the Bridge Loans held by such Lender corresponding to the principal amount of the Extended Term Loans made by such Lender, which corresponding principal amount of the Bridge Loans shall be satisfied by the conversion of such Bridge Loans into Extended Term Loans in accordance with this Section 2.4.

49

(b) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, on the Extended Term Loan Maturity Date, the then-outstanding Extended Term Loans.

(c) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower to the appropriate lending office of such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such lending office of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such lending office of such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 13.6(b), and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, whether such Loan is a Bridge Loan or Extended Term Loan, the name of the Borrower and the Bridge Interest Period, if any, 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 from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(e) The entries made in the Register and accounts and subaccounts maintained pursuant to clauses (c) and (d) of this Section 2.4 shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence, absent manifest error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts, such Register or subaccounts, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such entries, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

(f) The Borrower hereby agrees that, upon request of any Lender at any time and from time to time after the Borrower has made an initial borrowing hereunder, the Borrower shall provide to such Lender, at the Borrower’s own expense, a promissory note, substantially in the form of Exhibit D, evidencing the applicable Loans owing to such Lender. Thereafter, unless otherwise agreed to by the applicable Lender, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 13.6) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if requested by such payee, to such payee and its registered assigns).

2.5 Pro Rata Borrowings. Each borrowing of Loans under this Agreement shall be made by the applicable Lenders pro rata on the basis of their then-applicable Commitments with respect to such Loans. It is understood that (a) no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender severally but not jointly shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder and (b) other than as expressly provided herein with respect to a Defaulting Lender, failure by a Lender to perform any of its obligations under any of the Credit Documents shall not release any Person from performance of its obligations under any Credit Document.

2.6 Interest.

(a) The unpaid principal amount of Bridge Loans shall bear interest from the date of the borrowing thereof until, but excluding, the Bridge Loan Rollover Date at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Bridge Rate; provided that upon the occurrence of a Demand Failure Event the Loans shall bear interest at the Total Cap; provided, further that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at no time will the interest rate on the Bridge Loans exceed the Total Cap, except with respect to interest paid pursuant to the Default Rate.

50

(b) The unpaid principal amount of Extended Term Loans shall bear interest from, and including, the Bridge Loan Rollover Date until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Extended Term Loan Interest Rate, subject to Section 2.6(c) with respect to interest paid pursuant to the Default Rate.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all Obligations shall be payable upon demand and shall bear interest, after (as well as before) judgment, at a rate (i) in the case of principal of, or interest on, any Loan, the rate per annum that is equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto plus 2.00% and (ii) in the case of any other Obligation, the Bridge Rate, plus 2.00%, in each case, from the date of such Event of Default to the date on which such amount is paid in full in cash (such rates described in clauses (i) and (ii) hereof, the “Default Rate”).

(d) Interest on each Bridge Loan shall accrue from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the earlier of (x) the date of any repayment thereof and (y) the Bridge Loan Rollover Date, and interest on each Extended Term Loan shall accrue from and including the Bridge Loan Rollover Date to but excluding the earlier of (x) the date of any repayment thereof and (y) the Extended Term Loan Maturity Date; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same date on which it is made shall bear interest for one day. Interest on each Loan shall be payable (i) in the case of any Bridge Loan, monthly in arrears on the last day of each Bridge Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) in the case of any Extended Term Loan, quarterly in arrears on each three-month anniversary of the Bridge Loan Rollover Date and (iii) in respect of each Loan, (A) on any prepayment of such Loan, (B) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), and (C) after such maturity, on demand.

(e) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 5.5.

(f) The Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for any borrowing of Loans, shall promptly notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

2.7 Bridge Interest Periods. Each Bridge Interest Period shall be a one-month period and the first day of the initial Bridge Interest Period shall be the Closing Date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above:

(a) if any Bridge Interest Period begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month or begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Bridge Interest Period, such Bridge Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month at the end of such Bridge Interest Period; and

(b) if any Bridge Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Bridge Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided that if any Bridge Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Bridge Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day.

2.8 Increased Costs, Illegality, Etc.

(i) In the event that the Required Lenders shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) at any time, that such Lenders shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Loans (including any increased costs or reductions attributable to Taxes, other than any increase or reduction attributable to (I) Indemnified Taxes, (II) clauses (ii) through (iv) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (III) Connection Income Taxes) because of any Change in Law; or

(ii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Loan has become unlawful by compliance by such Lenders in good faith with any law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful);

51

(such Loans, “Impacted Loans”), then, and in any such event, the Required Lenders shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice (if by telephone, confirmed in writing) to the Borrower, and to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter, (x) in the case of clause (i) above, the Borrower shall pay to such Lenders, promptly after receipt of written demand therefor such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as the Required Lenders in their reasonable discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lenders for such actual increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder (it being agreed that a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lenders, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrower by such Lenders shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), and (y) in the case of subclause (ii) above, the Borrower shall take the actions specified in of Section 2.8(b) promptly and, in any event, within the time period required by law.

(b) At any time that any Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.8(a)(ii), the Borrower shall if the affected Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Loan to bear interest at such rate as the Administrative Agent (acting on instructions of the Required Lenders) and the Borrower shall determine adequately and fairly reflects the cost to the affected Lenders of making or maintaining such Loan plus the Bridge Rate with respect to such Loan; provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated in the same manner pursuant to this Section 2.8(b).

(c) If, after the Closing Date, any Change in Law relating to capital adequacy or liquidity of any Lender or compliance by any Lender or its parent with any Change in Law relating to capital adequacy or liquidity occurring after the Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the actual rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent’s or its Affiliate’s capital or assets as a consequence of such Lender’s Loans hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or its parent or its Affiliate could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or its parent’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time, promptly following written demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such actual additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its parent for such actual reduction, it being understood and agreed, however, that a Lender shall not be entitled to such compensation as a result of such Lender’s compliance with, or pursuant to any request or directive to comply with, any law, rule or regulation as in effect on the Closing Date or to the extent such Lender is not imposing such charges on, or requesting such compensation from, borrowers (similarly situated to the Borrower hereunder) under comparable syndicated credit facilities similar to the Loans. Each Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.8(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not, subject to Section 2.10, release or diminish the Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.8(c) promptly following receipt of such notice.

(d) Other than as set forth in clause (a)(i) of this Section 2.8, it is understood that this Section 2.8 shall not apply to Taxes.

2.9 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Sections 2.8(a), 2.8(c) or 5.4 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event; provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no material unreimbursed cost or other material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.9 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Sections 2.8 or 5.4.

52

2.10 Notice of Certain Costs.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any notice required by Sections 2.8 is given by any Lender more than 270 days after such Lender has knowledge (or should have had knowledge) of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss, or other additional amounts described in such Sections, such Lender shall not be entitled to compensation under Sections 2.8 for any such amounts incurred or accruing prior to the 271^st day prior to the giving of such notice to the Borrower; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such 270-day period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 2.10, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith (whether or not having the force of law) and (y) all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority ) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities (whether or not having the force of law), in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a Change in Law regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented.

2.11 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and Section 13.1.

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 11 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.8 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee payable under Section 4 or any interest at the Default Rate payable under Section 2.8(c) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee or interest that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

53

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 3

4.2 Conversion Fee.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, the Conversion Fee on the Bridge Loan Rollover Date with respect to the Outstanding Amount of Bridge Loans converted into Extended Term Loans (as determined immediately prior to the conversion of such Bridge Loans into Extended Term Loans).

SECTION 5

Payments

5.1 Voluntary Prepayments.

(a) Subject to the payment of any prepayment premium set forth in Section 5.7, the Borrower shall have the right to prepay Loans, without premium or penalty, in whole or in part from time to time on the following terms and conditions: (a) the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office written notice of its intent to make such prepayment and the amount of such prepayment, which notice shall be given by the Borrower no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) one (1) Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment (or such shorter period of time as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) and (b) each partial prepayment of Loans shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof.

54

5.2 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) On each occasion that a Prepayment Event occurs, and subject to the payment of any prepayment premium set forth in Section 5.7, the Borrower shall, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds of a Debt Incurrence Prepayment Event and within two (2) Business Days after the receipt of Net Cash Proceeds of any other Prepayment Event, prepay (or cause to prepay), in accordance with Section 5.2(d), Loans with an equivalent principal amount equal to 100.0% of the Net Cash Proceeds from such Prepayment Event.

Each such notice shall specify the anticipated date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender holding Loans to be prepaid in accordance with such prepayment notice of the contents of such prepayment notice and of such Lender’s pro rata share of the prepayment.

The Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) or, otherwise, on the next Business Day in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or Fees ratably to the Lenders entitled thereto.

(ii) If any applicable Credit Party, the Administrative Agent or any other Withholding Agent shall be required by applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) such Withholding Agent shall be entitled to withhold or make such deductions, (B) such Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Credit Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or deductions have been made (including withholding or deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.4) each Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deductions been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Credit Parties. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Credit Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of any Other Taxes.

(c) Tax Indemnifications. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, the Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.4) paid or payable by such Recipient, as the case may be, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Recipient, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. This subsection shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Credit Party or any other Person.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Credit Party to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 5.4, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Status of Lenders and Tax Documentation.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 5.4(e)(ii)(A), 5.4(e)(ii)(B) and 5.4(e)(ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify in writing the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its legal inability to do so.

56

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(A) any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) each Non-U.S. Lender that is entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to any payments hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) and to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) whichever of the following is applicable:

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

(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor form thereto);

(3) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate, substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1, F-2, F-3 or F-4, as applicable (each, a “Non-Bank Tax Certificate”), to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor form thereto); or

(4) where such Lender is a partnership (for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or otherwise not a beneficial owner (e.g., where such Lender has sold a participation), IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor form thereto) accompanied by IRS Form W-9, Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E (each, as applicable) and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner (including, where one or more of the underlying beneficial owner(s) is claiming the benefits of the portfolio interest exemption, a Non-Bank Tax Certificate of such beneficial owner(s)) (provided that, if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership and not a participating Lender, the Non-Bank Tax Certificate(s) may be provided by the Non-U.S. Lender on behalf of the direct or indirect partner(s));

(C) any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made;

57

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement; and

(E) on or before the date the Administrative Agent becomes a party to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall provide to the Borrower, two duly-signed, properly completed copies of the documentation prescribed in clause (i) or (ii) below, as applicable (together with all required attachments thereto): (i) IRS Form W-9 or any successor thereto, or (ii) (A) with respect to payments received for its own account, IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto, and (B) with respect to payments received on account of any Lender, a U.S. branch withholding certificate on IRS Form W-8IMY or any successor thereto evidencing its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a U.S. Person for U.S. federal withholding purposes or IRS Form W-8IMY certifying that it is a “qualified intermediary” and agrees to assume primary withholding responsibility for purposes of Chapters 3 and 4 of the Code and primary Form 1099 reporting and backup withholding responsibility. At any time thereafter, the Administrative Agent shall provide updated documentation previously provided (or a successor form thereto) when any documentation previously delivered has expired or become obsolete or invalid or otherwise upon the reasonable request of the Borrower.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.4, no Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required to deliver any documentation that it is not legally eligible to deliver.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Credit Party or with respect to which any Credit Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.4, the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as applicable) shall promptly pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Credit Parties under this Section 5.4 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.4(f), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 5.4(f) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or any Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or any Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Credit Party or any other Person.

58

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 5.4, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(h) Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.4 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under the Credit Documents.

5.5 Computations of Interest and Fees.

(a) Interest on Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed.

(b) Fees shall be calculated on the basis of 360-day year for the actual days elapsed.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the provisions of this Agreement, at no time will the per annum yield on the Bridge Loans be greater than the Total Cap, except with respect to interest paid pursuant to the Default Rate.

(d) All payments under each Credit Document shall be made in immediately available funds in Dollars.

5.6 Limit on Rate of Interest.

(a) No Payment Shall Exceed Lawful Rate. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be obliged to pay any interest or other amounts under or in connection with this Agreement or otherwise in respect of the Obligations in excess of the amount or rate permitted under or consistent with any applicable law, rule or regulation.

(b) Payment at Highest Lawful Rate. If the Borrower is not obliged to make a payment that it would otherwise be required to make, as a result of Section 5.6(a), the Borrower shall make such payment to the maximum extent permitted by or consistent with applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

(c) Adjustment if Any Payment Exceeds Lawful Rate. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents would obligate the Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate that would be prohibited by any applicable law, rule or regulation, then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law (the “Maximum Rate”), such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid by the Borrower to the affected Lender under Section 2.6; provided that to the extent lawful, the interest or other amounts that would have been payable but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if any Lender shall have received from the Borrower an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by any applicable law, rule or regulation, then the Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent to obtain reimbursement from that Lender in an amount equal to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by that Lender to the Borrower.

For the purposes of disclosure pursuant to the Interest Act (Canada), the annual rates of interest or fees to which the rates of interest or fees provided in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (and stated herein or therein, as applicable, to be computed on the basis of 360 days, or any other period of time less than a calendar year) are equivalent are the rates so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the applicable calendar year and divided by 360 or such other period of time, respectively. All calculations of interest and fees under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be made on the basis of the nominal rates described in this Agreement and not on the basis of effective yearly rates or any other basis that gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment. The parties acknowledge that there is a material different between the stated nominal rates and effective yearly rates taking into account reinvestment, and that they are capable of making the calculations required to determine effective yearly rates.

Each Lender expressly acknowledges that the Agents or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates have not made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agents or any such Person hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and each other Credit Party and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of any of the Credit Parties. Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agents hereunder, the Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, assets, operations, properties, financial condition, prospects or creditworthiness of any Credit Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent, any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

12.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to severally indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Credit Parties and without limiting the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so), ratably according to their respective portions of the Total Credit Exposure in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their respective portions of the Total Credit Exposure in effect immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against an Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Credit 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 Agents under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable to an Agent for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, in each case, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction;

104

provided, further, that no action taken by the Agents in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by the Credit Documents) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 12.7. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time occur (including at any time following the payment of the Loans), this Section 12.7 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse each Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice rendered in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Credit Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that such reimbursement by the Lenders shall not affect the Borrower’s continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. If any indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided, in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such Lender’s pro rata portion thereof; and provided, further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, in each case, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this Section 12.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. The indemnity provided to each Agent under this Section 12.7 shall also apply to such Agent’s respective Affiliates, directors, officers, members, controlling persons, employees, trustees, investment advisors and agents and successors.

12.8 Agents in Their Individual Capacities. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Credit Party as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents. With respect to the Loans made by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms Lender and Lenders shall include the Agents in each of their individual capacities.

12.9 Successor Agents.

(a) Each Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) so long as no Event of Default is continuing, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above (including receipt of the Borrower’s consent); provided that if the applicable Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice.

(b) If the Person serving as the Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender by virtue of clause (v) or (vi) of the definition of Lender Default, the Required Lenders or the Borrower may, in each case, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to, in the case of a notice from the Required Lenders, the Borrower, or, in the case of a notice from the Borrower, the Required Lenders, and in each case, such Person, remove such Person as the Administrative Agent and, if such appointment is by the Required Lenders (as opposed to the Borrower) with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) so long as no Event of Default is continuing or, if such appointment is by the Borrower, with the consent of the Required Lenders (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders or the Borrower (with the consent of the Borrower or the Required Lenders, as applicable, as required above) and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

105

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable), (1) the retiring or removed agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (other than its obligations under Section 13.16) and under the other Credit Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the retiring or removed Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders or the Borrower, as applicable, appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this paragraph (and otherwise subject to the terms above). Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as the Agent hereunder, or as the Required Lenders may request, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) or removed Agent, and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder (other than its obligations under Section 13.16) or under the other Credit Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 12.9). The fees payable by the Borrower (following the effectiveness of such appointment) to the applicable Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the provisions of this Section 12 (including Section 12.7) and Section 13.5 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Agent was acting as an Agent.

12.10 Withholding Tax; Indemnification by the Lenders. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender under any Credit Document an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If (a) the IRS or any authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective), (b) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding Tax from such payment or (c) any (i) Indemnified Taxes attributable to a Lender, (ii) Taxes attributable to a Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.6(c)(ii) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, or (iii) Excluded Taxes attributable to a Lender, in each case of (i), (ii) and (iii), are otherwise payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by any applicable Credit Party and without limiting the obligation of any applicable Credit Party to do so) fully for all amounts payable or paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including penalties, additions to Tax and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 12.10. The agreements in this Section 12.10 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

SECTION 13

Miscellaneous

13.1 Amendments, Waivers, and Releases. Neither this Agreement nor any other Credit Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof, may be amended, supplemented, modified or waived except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.1. Except as provided to the contrary under the second, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth paragraphs hereof, and other than with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver contemplated in clause (x)(i), clause (x)(vi), clause (x)(vii) or clause (y) below, which, in each case, shall only require the consent of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, as expressly set forth therein and not Required Lenders, the

106

Required Lenders may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, (a) enter into with the relevant Credit Party or Credit Parties written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Credit Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents for changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Credit Parties hereunder or thereunder or for any other purpose or (b) waive in writing, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that each such waiver and each such amendment, supplement or modification shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; and provided, further, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall:

(x)(i) forgive or reduce any portion of any Loan or extend the final scheduled maturity date of any Loan or reduce the stated interest rate (it being understood that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the “default rate” or amend Section 2.6(c)), or forgive any portion thereof, or extend the date for the payment of any principal, interest or fee payable hereunder (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or make any Loan, interest, Fee or other amount payable in any currency other than expressly provided herein, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; provided that, in each case for purposes of this clause (x)(i) and clause (y) below, a waiver of any condition precedent in Section 6 of this Agreement, the waiver of any Default, Event of Default, default interest, mandatory prepayment or reductions, any modification, waiver or amendment to the financial definitions or financial ratios or any component thereof or the waiver of any other covenant shall not constitute an increase of any Commitment of a Lender, a reduction or forgiveness of any portion of any Loan or in the interest rates or the fees or premiums or a postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest or an extension of the final maturity of any Loan or the scheduled termination date of any Commitment, or

(ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of its rights and obligations under any Credit Document to which it is a party, in each case without the written consent of each Lender, or

(iii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 12 without the written consent of the then-current Administrative Agent in a manner that directly and adversely affects such Person, or

(iv) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors under the Guarantees (except as expressly permitted by this Agreement) without the prior written consent of each Lender, or

(v) reduce the percentages specified in the definitions of the terms Required Lenders or amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 13.1 that has the effect of decreasing the number of Lenders that must approve any amendment, modification or waiver, without the written consent of each Lender, or

(vi) subordinate (x) the Loans in right of payment to the prior payment of any other Indebtedness of Holdings, the Borrower and any of their Restricted Subsidiaries, or (y) the Liens on any Collateral securing the Loans to any other Lien on any Collateral securing any other Indebtedness or other obligations of the Credit Parties, or

(vii) [reserved], or

(viii) waive, amend or modify the provisions of Section 13.8(a) (except in connection with any transaction expressly permitted under this Agreement) without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, or

(y) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clause (x) above, (i) extend the final expiration date of any Lender’s Commitment or (ii) increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments of any Lender, in each case, without the written consent of such Lender (but no other Lender).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except (x) that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that any Commitments or Loans held

107

or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders) and (y) for any such amendment, waiver or consent that treats such Defaulting Lender disproportionately and adversely from the other Lenders (other than because of its status as a Defaulting Lender).

Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the affected Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower, such Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and all future holders of the affected Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be restored to its former position and rights hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, it being understood that no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. In connection with the foregoing provisions, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may, but shall have no obligations to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent, and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with the Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and other definitions related to such new Loans.

Additionally, the Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor shall be released from the Guarantees upon consummation of any transaction not prohibited by this Agreement resulting in such Subsidiary ceasing to constitute a Restricted Subsidiary or upon ceasing to be required to be a Guarantor pursuant to Section 8.10. The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to, and each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent agrees to, execute and deliver any instruments, documents, and agreements necessary or desirable or reasonably requested by the Borrower to evidence and confirm the release of any Guarantor pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, all without the further consent or joinder of any Lender.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Credit Documents may be amended to add syndication or documentation agents and make customary changes and references related thereto, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Section 13.1) or any other Credit Document to the contrary, (i) any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any exhibit, schedule or other attachment to any Credit Document) may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to (x) cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) and (y) to effect administrative changes of a technical or immaterial nature and such amendment shall be deemed approved by the Lenders if the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice of such change and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment and (ii) guarantees and related documents executed by the Credit Parties in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with any other Credit Document, entered into, amended, supplemented or waived, without the consent of any other Person, by the applicable Credit Party or Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent in its or their respective sole discretion, to cure ambiguities, omissions, mistakes or defects (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) or to cause such guarantee or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, the Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion, grant extensions of time for the satisfaction of any of the requirements under Section 8.10 if it determines that the satisfaction thereof with respect to such Subsidiary cannot be accomplished without undue expense or unreasonable effort or due to factors beyond the control of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries by the time or times at which it would otherwise be required to be satisfied under this Agreement.

The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agents for all their reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses (without duplication) incurred in connection with the preparation and execution and delivery of, and any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to, this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (limited (i) in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable documented fees, disbursements and other charges of Latham & Watkins LLP (or such other counsel as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) and, if reasonably necessary, of a single firm of local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction, excluding in all cases allocated costs of in-house counsel, and (ii) in the case of fees and expenses related to any other advisor or consultant, solely to the extent the Borrower has consented to the retention or engagement of such Person), (b) to pay or reimburse each Agent for all its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any other documents delivered in connection herewith or therewith upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses of the Administrative Agents and the Lenders (taken as a whole), to the reasonable documented fees, disbursements and other charges of one primary counsel and (x) if reasonably necessary, of a single firm of local counsel a single firm of local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction and (y) if there is an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional counsel for the affected similarly situated (taken as a whole) Persons), in each case excluding in all cases allocated costs of in-house counsel, and (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold harmless each Lender, each Agent and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, partners, members, controlling persons, employees, trustees, investment advisors, and agents and successors of the foregoing (the “Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all actual losses, damages, claims, expenses or liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever (limited (i) in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements, and other charges of one primary counsel and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction for all such Indemnified Persons (taken as a whole) and, if there is an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional counsel for the affected Indemnified Persons similarly situated (taken as a whole), in each case excluding in all cases allocated costs of in-house counsel, and (ii) in the case of fees and expenses related to any other advisor or consultant, solely to

110

the extent the Borrower has consented to the retention or engagement of such Person in writing), in each case to the extent arising out of or relating to any claim, litigation or other proceeding, regardless whether any such Indemnified Person is a party thereto or whether such claim, litigation or other proceeding is brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, that is related to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, and administration of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and other documents delivered in connection herewith or therewith or the use of proceeds of any Loans (all the foregoing in this clause (c), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities (i) resulting from disputes between and among any Indemnified Persons (or any of such Indemnified Person’s Affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, controlling persons, members or the successors of any of the foregoing) that does not involve an act or omission by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than any claims against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Sole Lead Arranger and Bookrunner in their respective capacities as such, subject to the immediately succeeding clause (ii)) or (ii) to the extent it has been determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (x) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person (or any of such Indemnified Person’s Affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, controlling persons, members or the successors of any of the foregoing) or (y) a material breach of any Credit Document by such Indemnified Person (or any of such Indemnified Person’s Affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, controlling persons, members or the successors of any of the foregoing). No Person entitled to indemnification under Section 13.5(c) and no other Person party to this Agreement shall be liable (1) for any damages to any other Indemnified Person or party hereto arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement except to the extent that such damage resulted from bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person, such other Person or any of such Indemnified Person’s or such other Person’s Affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, controlling persons, members or the successors of any of the foregoing or (2) for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date); provided, that this clause (2) shall not limit the Borrower’s indemnity or reimbursement obligations to the extent such special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages are included in any claim by a third party with respect to which the applicable Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification in accordance with Section 13.5(c). All amounts due under this Section 13.5 shall be paid within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor (together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request); provided, however, that an Indemnified Person shall promptly refund any amount to the extent that there is a final judicial or arbitral determination that such Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification rights with respect to such payment pursuant to this Section 13.5.

The Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without the Borrower’s written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with the Borrower’s written consent or if there is a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction for the plaintiff in any such proceeding, the Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all actual losses, damages, claims, liabilities, and reasonable and documented legal or other out-of-pocket expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with, and to the extent provided in, the other provisions of this Section 13.5.

Holdings, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries shall not, without the prior written consent of any Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceedings in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such proceedings and (ii) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability, wrongdoing or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

Each Indemnified Person, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Section 13.5, agrees to refund and return any and all amounts paid by the Borrower to it if, pursuant to limitations on indemnification set forth in this Section 13.5, such Indemnified Person was not entitled to receipt of such amounts.

111

The agreements in this Section 13.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. Section 13.5(c) shall not apply with respect to Taxes, other than any Taxes that represent liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, costs, expenses, or disbursements, etc., arising from any non-Tax claim.

13.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their respective rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 13.6. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in clause (c) of this Section 13.6) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders and each other Person entitled to indemnification under Section 13.5) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (b)(ii) below and Section 13.7, any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of:

(A) during the Bridge Period, the Borrower; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required (1) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments to any assignee if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (2) to the extent that the Sole Lead Arranger and Bookrunner and its respective Affiliates would, after giving effect to such assignment, hold a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Bridge Loans provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment of Loans by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender; provided, further, however that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within three Business Days after having received notice thereof; and

(B) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such assignment shall be made to a natural Person, Defaulting Lender or Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within three Business Days after having received notice thereof); provided, further, that contemporaneous assignments by a Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of meeting the minimum assignment amount requirements stated above (and simultaneous assignments to or by two or more Related Funds shall be treated as one assignment), if any;

112

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that this clause (B) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Commitments or Loans;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance via an electronic settlement system or other method reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive or reduce such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment; and

(D) the assignee, if it was not a Lender prior to such assignment, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in a form approved by the Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Questionnaire”) and applicable tax forms (as required under Section 5.4(e)).

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to clause (b)(v) of this Section 13.6 from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations (other than under Section 13.16) under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.8, 5.4 and 13.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 13.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (c) of this Section 13.6. For the avoidance of doubt, in case of an assignment to a new Lender pursuant to this Section 13.6, the Administrative Agent, the new Lender and other Lenders shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have acquired and assumed had the new Lender been an original Lender signatory to this Agreement with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of the assignment and to the extent of the assignment the assigning Lender shall each be released from further obligations under the Credit Documents.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans (and stated interest amounts) owing to each Lender, pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Further, the Register shall contain the name and address of the Administrative Agent and the lending office through which each such Person acts under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and, with respect to itself, any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and applicable tax forms (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 13.6(b)(ii)(C) and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 13.6(b)(i), the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment, whether or not evidenced by a promissory note, shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 13.6(b)(v).

113

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than (x) Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or (y) a natural person) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to (I) enforce this Agreement and (II) approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clauses (x)(i) and (x)(iv) of the second proviso to Section 13.1 that directly and adversely affects such Participant. Subject to clause (c)(ii) of this Section 13.6, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.8, and 5.4 to the same extent as if it were a Lender (subject to the limitations and requirements of those Sections as though it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 13.6, including the requirements of clause (e) of Section 5.4) (it being agreed that any documentation required under Section 5.4(e) shall be provided to the participating Lender). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.8(b) as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 13.8(a) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.8 or 5.4 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive absent the sale of the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (which consent may be withheld in the Borrower’s sole discretion) or such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation or makes a grant to an SPV shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant or SPV and the principal amounts (and stated interest amounts) of each Participant’s or SPV’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations under any Credit Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or Section 1.163-5(b) of the proposed United States Treasury Regulations (or any amended or successor version), or as is otherwise required by law. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, and this Section 13.6 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e) Subject to Section 13.16, the Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant, secured creditor of such Lender or assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates that has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement or that has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrower and its Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement.

114

(f) The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

(g) SPV Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPV”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, it shall not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.6, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) subject to Section 13.16, disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV. This Section 13.6(g) may not be amended without the written consent of the SPV. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement but subject to the following sentence, each SPV shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.8 and 5.4 to the same extent as if it were a Lender (subject to the limitations and requirements of those Sections as though it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 13.6, including the requirements of clause (e) of Section 5.4 (it being agreed that any documentation required under Section 5.4(e) shall be provided to the Granting Lender)). Notwithstanding the prior sentence, an SPV shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.8 or 5.4 than its Granting Lender would have been entitled to receive absent the grant to such SPV, unless such grant to such SPV is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If a Granting Lender grants an option to an SPV as described herein and such grant is not reflected in the Register, the Granting Lender shall maintain a separate register on which it records the name and address of each SPV and the principal amounts (and related interest) of each SPV’s interest with respect to the Loans, Commitments or other interests hereunder, which entries shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided, further, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose any portion of such register to any Person except to the extent disclosure is necessary to establish that the Loans, Commitments or other interests hereunder are in registered form for United States federal income tax purposes (or as is otherwise required by law).

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (x) any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Loans to the Borrower or any Subsidiary and (y) the Borrower and any Subsidiary may, from time to time, purchase or prepay Loans, in each case, on a non-pro rata basis through open market purchases; provided that any Loans or Commitments acquired by the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall be retired and cancelled to the extent permitted by applicable law as determined in good faith by the Borrower or its advisors;

13.7 Replacements of Lenders Under Certain Circumstances. If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that pursuant to the terms of Section 13.1 requires the consent of either (i) all of the Lenders directly and adversely affected or (ii) all of the Lenders, and, in each case, with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) to (x) replace such

115

Non-Consenting Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender to assign its Loans and its Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (to the extent such consent would be required under Section 13.6) or (y) terminate the Commitment of such Lender, as the case may be, and in the case of a Lender, repay all Obligations of the Borrower due and owing to such Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date; provided that (I) all Obligations hereunder of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment and (II) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In connection with any such assignment, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 13.6.

13.8 Adjustments; Set-off.

(a) Except as contemplated in Section 13.6 or elsewhere herein, if any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof as part of the exercise of remedies under this Agreement or any other Credit Document (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 11.1(e) or (f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or such collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, 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 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) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Credit Parties but with the prior consent of the Administrative Agent, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower and the other Credit Parties to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Credit Parties hereunder (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) (other than payroll, trust, tax, fiduciary, employee health and benefits, pension, 401(k), and petty cash accounts), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case then matured and owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or the other Credit Parties. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Credit Parties 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. The rights of each Lender and the Administrative Agent under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender or the Administrative Agent may have under the Credit Documents.

13.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission), 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.

13.10 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that 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.

13.11 Integration. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents, together with the applicable provisions of the Agency Fee Letter referred to herein, represent the agreement of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent nor any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Credit Documents.

The Administrative Agent, each other Agent and each Lender (collectively, the “Restricted Persons” and, each, a “Restricted Person”) shall treat confidentially all non-public information provided to any Restricted Person by or on behalf of any Credit Party hereunder in connection with such Restricted Person’s evaluation of whether to become a Lender hereunder or obtained by such Restricted Person pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement (“Confidential Information”) and shall not publish, disclose or otherwise divulge such Confidential Information; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Restricted Person from disclosing any such Confidential Information (a) pursuant to the order of any court or administrative agency or in any pending legal, judicial or administrative proceeding, or otherwise as required by applicable law, rule or regulation or compulsory legal process (in which case such Restricted Person agrees (except with respect to any routine or ordinary course audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental or bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority), to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, rule or regulation, to inform the Borrower promptly thereof prior to disclosure), (b) upon the request or demand of any regulatory or other governmental authority, including any Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank, having jurisdiction over such Restricted Person or any of its Affiliates (in which case such Restricted Person agrees (except with respect to any routine or ordinary course audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental or bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority) to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, rule or regulation, to inform the Borrower promptly thereof prior to disclosure), (c) to the extent that such Confidential Information becomes publicly available other than by reason of improper disclosure by such Restricted Person or any of its Affiliates or any Related Parties thereto in violation of any confidentiality obligations owing under this Section 13.16 or other confidentiality obligations owed to the Borrower or its Affiliates, (d) to the extent that such Confidential Information is received by such Restricted Person from a third party that is not, to such Restricted Person’s knowledge, subject to confidentiality obligations owing to any Credit Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, (e) to the extent that such Confidential Information was already in our possession prior to any duty or other undertaking of confidentiality or is independently developed by the Restricted Persons without the use of such Confidential Information or otherwise subject to any confidentiality obligation, (f) to such Restricted Person’s Related Parties, in each case who need to know such Confidential Information in connection with providing the Loans or action as an Agent hereunder and who are informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and who are or have been advised of their obligation to keep the Confidential Information confidential; provided that such Person shall be responsible for its Affiliates’ and their Related Parties’ compliance with this Section 13.16, (g) to potential or prospective Lenders, hedge providers or counterparties to other derivative transactions (“Derivative Counterparties”), participants or assignees, in each case who agree (pursuant to customary syndication practice) to be bound by the terms of this Section 13.16 (or confidentiality provisions at least as restrictive as those set forth in this Section 13.16); provided that the disclosure of any such Confidential Information to any Lenders, Derivative Counterparties or prospective Lenders, Derivative Counterparties or participants or prospective participants referred to above shall be made subject to the acknowledgment and acceptance by such Lender, Derivative Counterparty or prospective Lender or participant or prospective participant that such Confidential Information is being disseminated on a confidential basis (on substantially the terms set forth in this Section 13.16 or confidentiality provisions at least as restrictive as those set forth in this Section 13.16) in accordance with the standard syndication processes of such Restricted Person or customary market standards for dissemination of such type of information, which shall in any event require “click through” or other affirmative actions on the part of recipient to access such Confidential Information, (h) for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense, in connection with exercising any remedies hereunder or under any Credit Documents, any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any Credit Document, or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder or (i) to rating agencies in connection with obtaining ratings for the Borrower and the Loans to the extent such rating agencies are subject to customary confidentiality obligations of professional practice or agree to be bound by the terms of this Section 13.16 (or confidentiality provisions at least as restrictive as those set forth in this Section 13.16); provided that, no such disclosure shall be made to any Excluded Affiliates other than a limited number of senior employees who are required, in accordance with industry regulations or the relevant Restricted Person’s internal policies and procedures to act in a supervisory capacity and such Restricted Person’s internal legal, compliance, risk management, credit or investment committee members. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Confidential Information shall not include, with respect to

118

any Person, information available to it or its Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates, (ii) the Agents shall not be responsible for compliance with this Section 13.16 by any other Restricted Person (other than its officers, directors or employees), (iii) in no event shall any Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Agent be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by the Borrower any of its Subsidiaries, and (iv) each Agent and each Lender may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Administrative Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration, settlement and management of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

The Borrower may, at its option, provide to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent any information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all notices, requests, financial statements, financial, and other reports, certificates, and other information materials, but, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, excluding any such communication that (A) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an existing, borrowing or other extension of credit (including any election of an interest rate or interest period relating thereto), (B) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, or (C) provides notice of any default or event of default under this Agreement (all such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent at an email address provided by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent from time to time; provided that (i) upon written request by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall deliver paper copies of such documents to the Administrative Agent for further distribution to each Lender until a written request to cease delivering paper copies is given by the Administrative Agent and (ii) the Borrower shall notify (which may be by facsimile or electronic mail) the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent of the posting of any such documents and provide to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent by electronic mail electronic versions (i.e., soft copies) of such documents. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for timely accessing posted documents or requesting delivery of paper copies of such documents from the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and maintaining its copies of such documents. Nothing in this Section 13.17 shall prejudice the right of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Credit Document in any other manner specified in such Credit Document.

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent agree that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent at its e-mail address set forth in Section 13.2 shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent for purposes of the Credit Documents. Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Credit Documents. Each Lender agrees (A) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (B) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

(a) The Borrower further agrees that any Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinks, Syndtrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”), so long as the access to such Platform (i) is limited to the Administrative Agents, the Lenders and Transferees or prospective Transferees and (ii) remains subject to the confidentiality requirements set forth in Section 13.16.

(b) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PARTIES DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY MATERIALS OR INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE CREDIT PARTIES (THE “BORROWER MATERIALS”) OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall (x) the Administrative Agent or any of its

119

Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties” and, each, an “Agent Party”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender, or any other Person or (y) the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries have any liability to any Agent, any Lender or any other Person, for losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Credit Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the internet, except to the extent, in the case of clause (x), the liability of any Agent Party resulted from such Agent Party’s (or any of its Related Parties’ (other than any trustee or advisor)) gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or material breach of the Credit Documents, in each case, as determined in the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or, in the case of clause (y), the liability of any of the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries resulted from such Person’s (or any of its Related Parties’ (other than any trustee or advisor)) gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or material breach of the Credit Documents, in each case, as determined in the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) The Borrower and each Lender acknowledge that certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (Lenders that do not wish to receive MNPI) and, if documents or notices required to be delivered pursuant to the Credit Documents or otherwise are being distributed through the Platform, any document or notice that the Borrower has indicated contains only Non-MNPI may be posted on that portion of the Platform designated for such public-side Lenders. If the Borrower has not indicated whether a document or notice delivered contains only Non-MNPI, the Administrative Agent shall post such document or notice solely on that portion of the Platform designated for Lenders who wish to receive MNPI. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to indicate whether any document or notice to be distributed through the Platform contains only Non-MNPI; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to mark any materials “NON-MNPI;” provided, further, however, that, the following documents shall be deemed to be marked “NON-MNPI,” unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent promptly (after the Borrower has been given a reasonable opportunity to review such documents) that any such document contains MNPI: (1) the Credit Documents, (2) any notification of changes in the terms of any Loans and (3) all financial statements and certificates delivered pursuant to Sections 8.4(a) and (b). In no event shall the Administrative Agent distribute projections delivered hereunder, if any, to “public-side” Lenders. Each “public side” Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Person to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such “public side” Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Person’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including foreign, United States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to communications that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” and that may contain MNPI.

13.18 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Credit Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. Each of the Lenders agrees that none of the Administrative Agents has any obligation to ascertain the identity of the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any authorized signatories of the Borrower or any other Guarantor on behalf of any Lender, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any such authorized signatory in doing so.

13.19 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to any Agent or any Lender, or any Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, administrative receiver, administrator, monitor, compulsory manager or any other party, in connection with any proceeding or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect.

13.20 No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Credit Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Credit Party agrees that nothing in the Credit Documents or otherwise will

120

be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the other. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) except as otherwise expressly agreed in writing, no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Credit Party, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Credit Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Credit Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Credit Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the Administrative Agent or fiduciary of any Credit Party, its management, stockholders or creditors. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Credit Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Credit Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

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

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

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

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

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

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

13.22 Lender ERISA Matters. Each Lender represents and warrants as of the date hereof to and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Sole Lead Arranger and Bookrunner and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, for the benefit of Holdings or any Subsidiary thereof, that such Lender is not and will not be (i) a Benefit Plan or an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” of any such plans or accounts for purposes of ERISA or the Code that is using “plan assets” of any such plans or accounts to enter into, fund or hold Loans or Commitments or perform its obligations under this Agreement; or (ii) a “governmental plan” within the meaning of ERISA.

13.23 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Credit Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Obligations or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Credit Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

121

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Credit Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Credit Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(b) As used in this Section 13.23, the following terms have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

13.24 Electronic Records. This Agreement and any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice, certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement (each a “Loan Communication”), including Loan Communications required to be in writing, may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures. The Borrower agrees that any Electronic Signature on or associated with any Loan Communication shall be valid and binding of the Borrower to the same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Loan Communication entered into by Electronic Signature, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Credit Parties enforceable against such in accordance with the terms thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered. Any Loan Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Loan Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each of the Lenders of a manually signed paper Loan Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Loan Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Loan Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic

122

Record (“Electronic Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of the such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document. All Loan Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent have agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Credit Party without further verification and (b) upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart. For purposes hereof, “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature” shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC §7006, as it may be amended from time to time.

If any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Credit Documents would obligate any Credit Party to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to a Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would result in receipt by any Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provisions, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by such Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows: (1) firstly, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to such Lender under Section 2, and (2) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to such Lender which would constitute “interest” for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if such Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), the Credit Parties shall be entitled, by notice in writing to such Lender, to obtain reimbursement from the Lender in an amount equal to such excess.

SECTION 14

The Guarantee

14.1 Unconditional and Irrevocable Guarantee. In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder and in recognition of the direct benefits to be received by each Guarantor from the extensions of credit hereunder, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably jointly and severally guaranties as primary obligor and not merely as surety the full and prompt payment when due, whether upon maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of any and all Obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders. If any or all of the Obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders becomes due and payable hereunder, each Guarantor unconditionally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, or order, when due, together with any and all reasonable expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders in collecting any of the Obligations. The guarantee of each Guarantor contained in this Section 14 is a guarantee of payment and not of collection.

14.2 Invalidity and Unenforceability. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other Credit Document, to the extent the obligations of any Guarantor shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is permissible under applicable law (whether federal or state and including any Debtor Relief Law).

14.3 Bankruptcy. Additionally, each Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guaranties the payment of any and all Obligations of the Borrower to the Lenders whether or not due or payable by the Borrower upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 11.1(e) or (f), and unconditionally promises to pay such Obligations to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, or order, when due. Each Credit Party further agrees that to the extent that the Borrower or a Guarantor shall make a payment or a transfer of an interest in any property to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, which payment or transfer or any part

123

thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, or otherwise is avoided, and/or required to be repaid to the Borrower or such Guarantor, the estate of the Borrower or such Guarantor, a trustee, receiver, administrative receiver, administrator, monitor, compulsory manager or any other party under any Debtor Relief Law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such avoidance or repayment, the obligation or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment had not been made.

14.4 Nature of Liability. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder is exclusive and independent of any security for or other guarantee of the indebtedness of the Borrower and no Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by the Borrower or by any other party, or (b) any other continuing or other guarantee, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the indebtedness of the Borrower, or (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guarantee or undertaking, or (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by the Borrower, or (e) any payment made to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders on the indebtedness which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lenders repay the Borrower pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and each Guarantor hereby waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the aggregate liability of the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries under the Credit Documents shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Obligations.

14.5 Independent Obligation. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Guarantor or the Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor or the Borrower and whether or not any other Guarantor or the Borrower is joined in any such action or actions.

14.6 Authorization. Each Guarantor authorizes the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable Requirement of Law that cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to (a) renew, compromise, extend, increase, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise change the terms of the indebtedness or any part thereof in accordance with this Agreement, including any increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon and (b) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, the Borrower or other obligors.

14.7 Reliance. It is not necessary for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders to inquire into the capacity or powers of the Borrower or any Guarantor or the officers, directors, members, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

14.8 Waiver.

(a) Subject to Section 14.10, each Guarantor waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable Requirement of Law that cannot be waived) to require the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to (i) proceed against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other party, or (ii) pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent’s, the Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s power whatsoever. Each Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party other than if such Guarantor is released pursuant to Section 14.10 hereof, including any defense based on or arising out of the disability of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Obligations or the Credit Documents or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower other than if such Guarantor is released pursuant to Section 14.10 hereof. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may, at its election, exercise any right or remedy the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and any Lender may have against the Borrower or any other party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Obligations have been paid. Each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each of the Lenders, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other party.

124

(b) Each Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including notices of nonperformance, notice of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guarantee, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional indebtedness. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the indebtedness and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which each Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding such circumstances or risks.

(c) Each Guarantor hereby agrees it will not exercise any rights of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Guarantee (whether contractual, under Section 509 of Title 11, United States Code, or otherwise) to the claims of the Lenders against the Borrower or any other guarantor of the indebtedness of the Borrower owing to the Lenders (collectively, the “Other Parties”) and all contractual, statutory or common law rights of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity from any Other Party which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Guarantee until the satisfaction of the Termination Conditions. Each Guarantor hereby further agrees not to exercise any right to enforce any other remedy which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders now have or may hereafter have against any Other Party, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of the indebtedness of the Borrower until the satisfaction of the Termination Conditions.

14.9 Limitation on Enforcement. The Lenders agree that this Guarantee may be enforced only by the action of the Administrative Agent acting upon the instructions (or with the consent) of the Required Lenders and that no Lender shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Guarantee, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders under the terms of this Agreement.

14.10 Release of Guarantors. Notwithstanding anything in Section 14.1 to the contrary, a Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and its Guarantee shall be automatically released upon satisfaction of the Termination Conditions. In connection with any such release, the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to any Guarantor, at such Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 14.10 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent (other than as to the Administrative Agent’s authority to execute and deliver such documents).

14.11 Guarantee Limitation. The guarantee in this Section 14 does not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in this guarantee constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of sections 678 and 679 of the UK Companies Act.
