In addition to the foregoing, the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan shall be payable in twelve (12) consecutive quarterly installments (the date of each such installment, a “Repayment Date”) on the dates and in the amounts set forth below, with the entire unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan, if not sooner paid, being due and payable, without notice or demand, on the Term Loan Maturity Date, (such payments to be distributed ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Term Loan Commitments):

Repayment Date	Payment
September 30, 2009	[***]
Quarters ending December 31, 2009 through June 30, 2010	[***]
Quarters ending September 30, 2010 and each fiscal quarter ending thereafter through the Term Loan Maturity Date	[***]

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

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

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

(e) Unless all Lenders otherwise agree, the Term Loan Commitment of each Lender shall be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit B (each, a “Note”). The Borrowers shall execute and deliver to each Lender a Note or Notes payable to such Lender with blanks completed to the satisfaction of such Lender. Each Note shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only in accordance with Section 10.4(b).

SECTION 2.9. Prepayment of Loans.

(a) The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the Term Loan in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section and subject to the provisions of Section 2.14 below in an amount of [***] or any integral of [***] in excess thereof, or the full amount of the Term Loan.

(b) The Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (promptly confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of the Term Loan or portion thereof to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to the Term Loan, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.11.

(c) Within [***] of the sale or other disposition of any Collateral permitted by Sections 6.13(ii) or (iii) hereof which result in proceeds therefrom received subsequent to the Effective Date, the Borrowers shall make a mandatory prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to [***] of the net proceeds received (after providing for the reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such sales or dispositions and any Taxes payable in connection therewith), any prepayment to be applied in accordance with subparagraph (e) below.

(d) Upon the receipt of any proceeds of any insurance carried by any Borrower (including, without limitation, those arising from an Event of Loss as defined in the Security Agreement), to the extent payable hereunder pursuant to Article III of the Security Agreement and after giving effect to Article III of the Security Agreement, the Borrowers shall make a mandatory prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to [***] of the remaining proceeds received, any prepayment to be applied in accordance with subparagraph (e) below.

(e) Each prepayment of Loans required by subsections (c) and (d) of this Section shall be made ratably among the Lenders and such prepayments shall be made with respect to such Type of Loans as the Borrower Representative may specify by notice to the Administrative Agent at or before the time of such prepayment and shall be applied to prepay the Term Loan comprising each such Type pro rata; provided that, if no such timely specification is given by the Borrower Representative, such payment shall be allocated to such Type or Types as the Administrative Agent may determine but in any event shall be applied pro rata to all remaining payments of principal required by Section 2.8(a). The Term Loan Commitment shall be permanently reduced ratably among the Term Loan Commitments of the Lenders to the extent of all additional proceeds in accordance with Sections 2.9(c) and (d).

SECTION 2.10. Fees.

(a) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon in the Fee Letter or otherwise in writing among the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

(b) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders, as appropriate. Absent any error in the calculation thereof, fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.11. Interest.

(a) That portion of the Term Loan which comprises an ABR Borrowing shall bear interest for each day on which any principal of such Loan remains outstanding at the Alternate Base Rate for such day plus the Applicable Rate for such day.

(b) That portion of the Term Loan which comprises a Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period applicable thereto at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate for such day.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) automatically upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under clause (g), clause (h) or clause (r) of Section 7.1, and (ii) upon written notice from the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders, through the Administrative Agent) upon the occurrence and continuance of any other Event of Default, (i) the Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to [***].

(d) Accrued interest on the Term Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and on the Term Loan Maturity Date; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Eurodollar Borrowing shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBOR Rate or LIBOR Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.12. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines in its reasonable business judgment (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders (other than CIT Bank or any Affiliate thereof) that the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining the Term Loan for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower Representative and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy, as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of the Term Loan to, or continuation of the Term Loan as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Term Loan shall be treated as an ABR Borrowing.

SECTION 2.13. Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets or deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR Rate); or

(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Borrowing made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining such Eurodollar Borrowing (or of maintaining its obligation to make the Eurodollar Borrowing) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise with respect to such Eurodollar Borrowing), then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the one hundred eighty (180) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.14. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Borrowing other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Borrowing other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto or (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Borrowing on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.9(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith), then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include, without limitation, (a) an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market and (b) any other loss in connection with the re-employment of such funds) that any Lender may sustain as a result of such default or such payment. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall not be required to make any prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing pursuant to Sections 2.9(c) and (d) until the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto so long as an amount equal to such prepayment is deposited by the Borrowers into a cash collateral account with the Administrative Agent and applied to such prepayment on the last day of such Interest Period.

SECTION 2.15. Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrowers shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrowers shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder (including any taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and 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 provided that the Borrower shall be assigned the right to seek reimbursement from such Governmental Authority, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense and so long as there is no unindemnified adverse consequence to the Administrative Agent or Lenders. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower Representative by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrowers to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower Representative shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States of America, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,

(ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign 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 Borrowers 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) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

(iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrowers to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which the Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrowers (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrowers under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrowers, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrowers (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. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person.

SECTION 2.16. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a) The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds and shall be absolute and unconditional, without defense, rescission, recoupment, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 11 West 42nd Street, 12th Floor, New York, New York 10036, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.3 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension; provided that, in the case of any prepayment of principal of or interest on any Eurodollar Borrowing, if such next succeeding Business Day would fall in the next calendar month, the date for payment shall instead be the next preceding Business Day. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and are available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower Representative prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.16(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. Until such Lender’s unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, such Lender shall be excluded from any determination of Required Lenders under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.17. Mitigation Obligations. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

SECTION 2.18. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, or if any Lender fails to approve an amendment or waiver to this Agreement for which its consent has been requested and is required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, which amendment or waiver is approved by the Required Lenders, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.4), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Each Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders that:

SECTION 3.1. Existence and Power. Each of the Loan Parties and its Subsidiaries is duly organized or incorporated, as applicable, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization or incorporation, as applicable, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required and where the failure to be so qualified would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.2. Corporate and Governmental Authorization; No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of the Financing Documents to which it is a party are (i) within its corporate or other organizational powers, (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action, (iii) require no action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority (except as contemplated by the Security Agreement) and (iv) do not contravene, or constitute a default under, any provision of applicable law or regulation or of its charter or bylaws, as applicable, or other constitutive documents or of any material agreement, or any judgment, injunction, order, decree or other instrument binding upon any Loan Party or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Loan Parties (except the Security Interests).

SECTION 3.3. Binding Effect. This Agreement and the other Financing Documents to which it is a party constitute valid and binding agreements of each Loan Party, in each case enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or moratorium or other similar laws relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.

SECTION 3.4. Financial Information.

(a) The opening balance sheet of Holdings as of March 31, 2009, prepared by its management, a copy of which has been delivered to each of the Lenders, fairly presents, in conformity with GAAP, the financial position of the Loan Parties as of such date. The Borrower Representative has heretofore furnished to the Administrative Agent (i) audited financial statements for the fiscal years ending 2006, 2007 and 2008 for Holdings and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, (ii) unaudited financial statements for each quarterly period ending after December 31, 2008 for Holdings and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, and (iii) monthly unaudited internal financial statements from March 31, 2009 through the Effective Date for Holdings and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. Such financial statements present fairly in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations of the Loan Parties, respectively, as of the dates and for the periods indicated, and such financial statements fairly presents, in conformity with GAAP, the financial position of the Loan Parties as of the date thereof.

(b) The Borrower Representative has heretofore furnished to the Administrative Agent pro forma financial information for the twelve month period ending March 31, 2010 and for the fiscal years ending 2009, 2010, and 2011. Projections included in such financial information are based upon reasonable estimates and assumptions, all of which were reasonable in light of the conditions which existed at the time the projections were made, were prepared on the basis of the assumptions stated therein, and reflect as of the Effective Date the good faith estimate of Holdings and the Borrowers of the results of operations and other information projected therein, provided that no representation is made that the assumptions are or will prove to be correct.

SECTION 3.5. Litigation. Except for the Disclosed Matters, there is no action, suit or proceeding pending against, or to the knowledge of the Loan Parties threatened against or affecting, the Loan Parties before any arbitrator or any Governmental Authority, that (i) could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) which would in any material respect draw into question the enforceability of this Agreement or of any of the Financing Documents, taken as a whole.

SECTION 3.6. Compliance with ERISA. None of the Loan Parties or any ERISA Affiliate maintains or contributes to any Plan other than those listed on Schedule 3.6. Each of the Loan Parties and each ERISA Affiliate has fulfilled its obligations under the minimum funding standards of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code with respect to each Plan and is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Plan, and has not incurred any liability under Title IV of ERISA (i) to the PBGC other than a liability to the PBGC for premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA or (ii) in respect of a Multiemployer Plan which has not been discharged in full when due.

The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of each Loan Party in respect of taxes or other similar governmental charges, additions to taxes and any penalties and interest thereon are, in the opinion of the Loan Parties, adequate.

SECTION 3.8. Environmental Compliance.

(a) Except for Disclosed Matters,

(i) the Loan Parties obtained, or made timely application for, all permits, certificates, licenses, approvals, registrations and other authorizations (collectively “Permits”) which are required under all applicable Environmental Laws and are necessary for their operations and are in compliance with the terms and conditions of all such Permits, except where the failure to obtain such Permits or to comply with their terms could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect;

(ii) no notice, notification, demand, request for information, citation, summons, complaint or order has been issued, no complaint has been filed, no penalty has been assessed and no investigation or review is pending, or to such Loan Party’s knowledge, threatened by any governmental entity or other Person with respect to any (A) alleged violation by any Loan Party of any Environmental Law, (B) alleged failure by any Loan Party to have any Permits required in connection with the conduct of its business or to comply with the terms and conditions thereof, (C) any generation, treatment, storage, recycling, transportation or disposal of any Hazardous Materials or (D) release of Hazardous Materials, except where such event or events could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect;

(iii) all oral or written notifications of a release of Hazardous Materials required to be filed under any applicable Environmental Law have been filed or are in the process of being filed by or on behalf of any Loan Party where the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect; and

(b) For purposes of this Section 3.8, the “Loan Party” and “Borrower” shall include any business or business entity (including a corporation) which is a predecessor, in whole or in part, of such Loan Party or Borrower, respectively.

ARTICLE VIII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent both as administrative agent and collateral agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and the other Financing Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Documents shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Financing Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or thereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.2), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for any failure to disclose, any information relating to the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.2) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower Representative or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone in accordance with Section 2.6 and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any of the Lenders), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their activities as Administrative Agent.

With respect to the release of Collateral, the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any property covered by this Agreement or the other Financing Documents (i) upon termination or expiration of the Commitments, the payment and satisfaction of all Obligations arising with respect to the Loans (including, without limitation, all fees and expenses payable hereunder and under the other Financing Documents), or (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of in compliance with the provisions of the Financing Documents (and the Administrative Agent may rely in good faith conclusively on any certificate stating that the property is being sold or disposed of in compliance with the provisions of the Financing Documents, without further inquiry); provided, however, that (x) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any release on terms which, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (y) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair any Liens upon all interests retained, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral covered by the Financing Documents.

With respect to perfecting security interests in Collateral which, in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code or any comparable provision of any Lien perfection statute in any applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected only by possession, each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender its agent for the purpose of perfecting such interest. Should any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request, shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions. Each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce this Agreement or any other Financing Document or to realize upon any Collateral for the Loans, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by or with the approval of the Administrative Agent.

In the event that a petition seeking relief under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar law is filed by or against any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent is authorized, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, but shall not be required, to file a proof of claim on behalf of itself, the Lenders in such proceeding for the total amount of Obligations owed by such Person. With respect to any such proof of claim which the Administrative Agent may file, each Lender acknowledges that without reliance on such proof of claim, such Lender shall make its own evaluation as to whether an individual proof of claim must be filed in respect of such Obligations owed to such Lender and, if so, take the steps necessary to prepare and timely file such individual claim.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower Representative. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the approval of the Borrower Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld, except that no such approval shall be required upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank with such an office. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower Representative and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Each Lender acknowledges the potential conflict of interest of each other Lender as a result of Lenders holding disproportionate interests in the Loans, and expressly consents to and waives any claim based upon such conflict of interest.

Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to release Liens on any Collateral sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Loan Party as permitted by this Agreement or the Security Agreement to the extent all conditions set forth herein and therein are satisfied.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof nor any provision of any other Financing Document may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Loan Parties and the Required Lenders or by the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Term Loan Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of the Term Loan or Note or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable to or for the account of Lenders hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) postpone the Term Loan Maturity Date or the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan (other than pursuant to Section 2.9(d) or (e) hereof), or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.16(b) or 2.16(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) release all or a material portion of the Collateral (except following termination of the Term Loan Commitment and payment in full of all Obligations then outstanding or make overadvances (other than for the purpose of preserving Collateral), (vi) except as provided herein or in the other Financing Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, or (vii) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, and provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 10.3. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent and each Lender, in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and out-of-pocket field examination expenses, and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.

(b) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claim, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(c) To the extent that the Borrowers fail to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent or its respective Related Parties under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the applicable Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought and based upon the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan at such time) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such Related Party in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions or any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

SECTION 10.4. Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. 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) no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Loan Party 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 10.4. 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 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders.

(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may 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 Term Loan Commitment) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for assignments in respect of a Term Loan Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is a Lender with a Commitment in respect of such facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender.

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

(A) Minimum Amounts. Except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Term Loan Commitment, the amount of the Term Loan Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than [***] in the case of such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment, unless Administrative Agent otherwise consents;

(B) Recording Fee. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a [***];

(C) Administrative Questionnaire. If the assignee is not an existing Lender hereunder, such assignee shall deliver an Administrative Questionnaire to the Administrative Agent;

(D) No Assignment to any Borrower. No assignment shall be made to any Borrower or any of a Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries; and

(E) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No assignment shall be made to a natural person.

For the purposes of this Section 10.4(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:

“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) engaged in making, purchasing, holding, or investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is advised, administered, or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers, advises or manages a Lender; and with respect to any Lender that is an investment fund, any other investment fund that invests in loans and that is advised, administered or managed by the same investment advisor as such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section 10.4, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, 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 Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption 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 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 10.3). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.4 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 paragraph (c) of this Section.

(i) The Loans shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon a register (the “Register”) maintained by the Administrative Agent as Registrar (the “Registrar”), acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers. The Registrar shall maintain the Register at one of its offices in the United States for the recordation of the names and addresses of the holders of the Notes from time to time. The Registrar shall record each transfer of all or part of the Loans to a transferee on the Registrar upon written notification by the registered owner of such transfer (with the Registrar being allowed to rely conclusively on any such notification). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and Lenders may deem and treat the Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of the Loans and holders of the Notes for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal and interest due on the Loans and for all other purposes, notwithstanding notice to the contrary, provided that, failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Commitments or Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any Loan. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and the Lenders, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Each Borrower hereby designates the entity serving as Administrative Agent to serve as such Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section, and each Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent such entity serves in such capacity, the entity serving as Agent and its affiliates, and its and its affiliates officers, directors, employees and agents shall constitute “Indemnitees” under Section 10.3(b).

(ii) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.4, any Note or Notes subject to such assignment and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 10.4, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. Upon notice to the Borrower Representative, at no expense to any Loan Party, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for such surrendered Notes, new Notes to the assignee in an amount equal to the portion of the Commitments assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption and, if the assigning Lender has retained any Commitment hereunder, new Notes to the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the respective Commitments retained by it hereunder.

(iii) At the request of the registered owner of the Note, the Administrative Agent shall note a collateral assignment of the Note on the Register and, provided that the Administrative Agent has been given the name and address of such collateral assignee, the Administrative Agent (i) shall not permit any further transfers of the Note on the Register absent receipt of written consent to such transfers from such collateral assignee and (ii) shall record the transfer of the Note on the Register to such collateral assignee (or such collateral assignee’s designee, nominee or assignee) upon written request by such collateral assignee.

(d) Participations.

(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (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 Borrowers, 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.

(ii) Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Financing Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents; 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 the first proviso to Section 10.2(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.8 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees in writing to be subject to Section 2.16(c) as though it were a Lender.

(e) Limitation on Participant’s Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13 or 2.15 other than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender, i.e., if it were a Lender, shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.15(e) as though it were a Lender.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the Notes issued to such Lender to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 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.

(g) Limitation on Effectiveness. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the case of an assignment by any Lender to any Affiliate of such Lender, such assignment shall be effective as between such assigning Lender and its Affiliate immediately without compliance with the conditions for assignment under this Section 10.4, but shall not be effective with respect to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to deal solely and directly with such assigning Lender under any such assignment, in each case, until all of the conditions for assignment under this Section 10.4 have been complied with.

(h) Securitization. In addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Section, Loan Parties hereby acknowledge that (x) the Lenders, their Affiliates and Approved Funds (each, a “Lender Party” and collectively, “Lender Parties”) may sell or securitize the Loans (a “Securitization”) through the pledge of the Loans as collateral security for loans to a Lender Party or the assignment or issuance of direct or indirect interests in the Loans (such as, for instance, collateralized loan obligations), and (y) such Securitization may be rated by a Rating Agency (as defined in Section 10.12). The Loan Parties shall reasonably cooperate with the Lender Parties to effect the Securitization including, without limitation, by (a) amending this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and executing such additional documents, as reasonably requested by the Lenders in connection with the Securitization, (b) providing such information as may be reasonably requested by the Lenders or Rating Agencies in connection with the rating of the Loans or the Securitization, and (c) providing a certificate (i) agreeing to indemnify the Lender Parties, or any party providing credit support or otherwise participating in the Securitization, including any investors in a securitization entity (collectively, the “Securitization Parties”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (the “Securitization Liabilities”) to which the Lender Parties or such Securitization Parties may become subject insofar as the Securitization Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Loan Document or in any writing delivered by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Lender Partiers in connection with any Loan Document or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and such indemnity shall survive any transfer by the Lenders or their successors or assigns of the Loans, and (ii) agreeing to reimburse the Lender Parties and the other Securitization Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Persons in connection with defending the Securitization Liabilities.

SECTION 10.5. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default, Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 10.3 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Term Loan, the expiration the Term Loan Commitment or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent hereby agrees to release all of its Liens on the Collateral upon payment in full of all Obligations.

SECTION 10.6. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Financing Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to or referring to fees and other amounts payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.7. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof, and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.8. Right of Setoff. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 10.8(b) below, If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any of and all the obligations of such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Financing Document held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Financing Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

(b) If any Lender shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of principal of, or interest on, any of the Loans made by it, in excess of its pro rata share of payments then or thereafter obtained by all Lenders upon principal of and interest on all such Obligations, such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Term Loan held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably in accordance with the applicable percentages of the aggregate Term Loan Commitment of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing holder, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

SECTION 10.9. GOVERNING LAW; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT, IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD CALL FOR THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(c) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section.

SECTION 11.2. Powers. The Borrower Representative shall have and may exercise such powers under the Financing Documents as are specifically delegated to the Borrowers and/or the Borrower Representative by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

SECTION 11.6. Execution of Financing Documents; Certificates. The Borrowers hereby empower and authorize the Borrower Representative, on behalf of the Borrowers, to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders the Financing Documents and all related agreements, certificates, documents, or instruments as shall be necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of the Financing Documents, including without limitation, the Compliance Certificates. Each Borrower agrees that any action taken by the Borrower Representative or the Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, and the exercise by the Borrower Representative of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Borrowers.

ARTICLE XII

JOINT AND SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS; CROSS-GUARANTIES

SECTION 12.1. Joint and Several Obligations.

(a) Each Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for all of the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives the proceeds of the Indebtedness governed hereby or the benefit of any other extensions of credit hereunder, or the manner in which the Borrowers, Administrative Agent or Lenders account therefor in their respective books and records. In addition, each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that all of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, conditions, agreements and other terms contained in this Agreement shall be applicable to and shall be binding upon and measured and enforceable individually against each Borrower as well as all Borrowers when taken together. By way of illustration, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the terms of Article VII of this Agreement are to be applied to each Borrower (as well as to all Borrowers taken as a whole), such that the occurrence of any of the events described in Article VII of this Agreement as to any Borrower shall constitute an Event of Default even if such event has not occurred as to any other Borrower or as to all Borrowers taken as a whole (except as otherwise expressly provided therein).

(b) Each Borrower acknowledges that it will enjoy significant benefits from the business conducted by the other Borrowers because of, inter alia, their combined ability to bargain with other Persons including without limitation their ability to receive the credit extensions under this Agreement and the Security Documents, which would not have been available to an individual Borrower acting alone. Each Borrower has determined that it is in its best interest to procure the credit facilities contemplated hereunder, with the credit support of the other Borrowers as contemplated by this Agreement and the Security Documents.

(c) Administrative Agent and the Lenders have advised the Borrowers that they are unwilling to enter into this Agreement and the Security Documents and make available the credit facilities extended hereby or thereby to any Borrower unless each Borrower agrees, among other things, to be jointly and severally liable for the due and proper payment of the Obligations of each other Borrower under this Agreement and the Security Documents. Each Borrower has determined that it is in its best interest and in pursuit of its purposes that it so induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to extend credit pursuant to this Agreement and the Security Documents (i) because of the desirability to each Borrower of the credit facilities hereunder and the interest rates and the modes of borrowing available hereunder, (ii) because each Borrower may engage in transactions jointly with other Borrowers, and (iii) because each Borrower may require, from time to time, access to funds under this Agreement for the purposes herein set forth. Each Borrower, individually, expressly understands, agrees and acknowledges, that the credit facilities contemplated hereunder would not be made available on the terms herein in the absence of the collective credit of the Borrowers, the joint and several liability of all such Persons, and the cross-collateralization of the collateral of all such Persons hereunder. Accordingly, each Borrower individually acknowledges that the benefit of the accommodations made under this Agreement to Borrowers as a whole constitutes reasonably equivalent value, regardless of the amount of the indebtedness actually borrowed by, advanced to, or the amount of credit provided to, or the amount of collateral provided by, any individual Borrower.

(d) Each Borrower has determined that it has and, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Security Documents (including, without limitation, the inter-Borrower arrangement set forth in this Section) will have, assets having a fair saleable value in excess of the amount required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts as they fall due for payment and that the sum of its debts is not and will not then be greater than all of its property at a fair valuation, that such Borrower has, and will have, access to adequate capital for the conduct of its business and the ability to pay its debts from time to time incurred in connection therewith as such debts mature and that the value of the benefits to be derived by such Borrower from the access to funds under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the intercompany arrangement set forth in this Section) is reasonably equivalent to the obligations undertaken pursuant hereto.

(e) Borrower Representative (on behalf of each Borrower) shall maintain records specifying (a) all Obligations incurred by each Borrower, (b) the date of such incurrence, (c) the date and amount of any payments made in respect of such Obligations and (d) all inter-Borrower obligations pursuant to this Section. Borrower Representative shall make copies of such records available to Administrative Agent and the Lenders, upon request.

(f) To the extent that applicable law otherwise would render the full amount of the joint and several obligations of any Borrower hereunder and under the Security Documents invalid or unenforceable, such Borrower’s obligations hereunder and under the Security Documents shall be limited to the maximum amount which does not result in such invalidity or unenforceability; provided, however, that each Borrower’s obligations hereunder and under the Security Documents shall be presumptively valid and enforceable to their fullest extent in accordance with the terms hereof, as if this Section were not a part of this Agreement.

(g) To the extent that any Borrower shall make a payment under this Section of all or any of the Obligations (other than credit facilities made to that Borrower for which it is primarily liable) (a “Joint Liability Payment”) which, taking into account all other Joint Liability Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount which such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Joint Liability Payments in the same proportion that such Borrower’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Joint Liability Payments) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Borrowers as determined immediately prior to the making of such Joint Liability Payments, then, following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations and termination of the Commitments, such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Joint Liability Payments. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim which could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Section without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

(h) Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, without notice or demand and without affecting the liability of any Borrower hereunder, to, at any time and from time to time, (i) renew, extend or otherwise increase the time for payment of the Obligations; (ii) with the written agreement of any Borrower accelerate or otherwise change the terms relating to the Obligations or otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any promissory note or other agreement, document or instrument now or hereafter executed by any Borrower and delivered to Administrative Agent; (iii) accept partial payments of the Obligations; (iv) take and hold security or collateral for the payment of the Obligations or for the payment of any guaranties of the Obligations and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security or collateral; (v) apply such security or collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may determine; and (vi) settle, release, compromise, collect or otherwise liquidate the Obligations and any security or collateral therefor in any manner, without affecting or impairing the obligations of any Borrower. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement or any of the Security Documents, Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right to determine the time and manner of application of any payments or credits, whether received from any Borrower or any other source, and such determination shall be binding on all Borrowers. All such payments and credits may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to any of the Obligations. Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion without affecting the validity or enforceability of the Obligations of any other Borrower.

(i) Each Borrower hereby agrees that, except as hereinafter provided, its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of (i) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from any obligor or other action to enforce the same; (ii) the waiver or consent by Administrative Agent with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Obligations, or any part thereof, or any other agreement heretofore, now or hereafter executed by a Borrower and delivered to Administrative Agent; (iii) failure by Administrative Agent to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations; (iv) the institution of any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code, or any similar proceeding, by or against a Borrower or Administrative Agent’s election in any such proceeding of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (v) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by a Borrower as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (vi) the disallowance, under Section 502 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of Administrative Agent’s claim(s) for repayment of any of the Obligations; or (vii) any other circumstance other than payment in full of the Obligations which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or surety.

(j) Until all Obligations have been paid and satisfied in full, no payment made by or for the account of a Borrower including, without limitation, (i) a payment made by such Borrower on behalf of the liabilities of any other Borrower or (ii) a payment made by any other person under any guaranty, shall entitle such Borrower, by subrogation or otherwise, to any payment from any other Borrower or from or out of any other Borrower’s property and such Borrower shall not exercise any right or remedy against any other Borrower or any property of any other Borrower by reason of any performance of such Borrower of its joint and several obligations hereunder.

(k) Any notice given by one Borrower hereunder shall constitute and be deemed to be notice given by all Borrowers, jointly and severally. Notice given by Administrative Agent or Lenders to any one Borrower hereunder or pursuant to any Security Documents in accordance with the terms hereof shall constitute notice to each and every Borrower. The knowledge of one Borrower shall be imputed to all Borrowers and any consent by one Borrower shall constitute the consent of and shall bind all Borrowers.

(l) This Section is intended only to define the relative rights of Borrowers and nothing set forth in this Section is intended to or shall impair the obligations of Borrowers, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any Security Documents. Nothing contained in this Section shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay the credit facilities made directly or indirectly to that Borrower and accrued interest, Fees and expenses with respect thereto for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable.

(m) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of each Borrower to which such contribution and indemnification is owing. The rights of any indemnifying Borrower against the other Borrowers under this Section shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the Obligations and the termination of the credit facilities hereunder.

SECTION 12.2. Cross-Guaranty Provisions.

(a) This Agreement is a primary and original obligation of each of the Borrowers and each of the Borrowers shall be liable for all existing and future Obligations of any other Borrower as fully as if such Obligations were directly incurred by such Borrower.

(b) Each Borrower, as joint and several primary obligor of the Obligations directly incurred by any other Borrower, authorizes Administrative Agent, without giving notice to such Borrower or to any other Borrower (to the extent permitted hereunder) or obtaining such Borrower’s consent or any other Borrower’s consent (to the extent permitted hereunder) and without affecting the liability of such Borrower for the Obligations directly incurred by the other Borrower, from time to time to:

(i) compromise, settle, renew, extend the time for payment, change the manner or terms of payment, discharge the performance of, decline to enforce, or release all or any of the Obligations; grant other indulgences to any Borrower in respect thereof; or modify in any manner any documents relating to the Obligations;

(ii) declare all Obligations due and payable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default;

(iii) take and hold security for the performance of the Obligations of any Borrower and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security;

(iv) apply and reapply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may determine;

(v) release, surrender or exchange any deposits or other property securing the Obligations or on which Administrative Agent at any time may have a Lien; release, substitute or add any one or more endorsers or guarantors of the Obligations of any other Borrower; or compromise, settle, renew, extend the time for payment, discharge the performance of, decline to enforce, or release all or any obligations of any such endorser or guarantor or other Person who is now or may hereafter be liable on any Obligations or release, surrender or exchange any deposits or other property of any such Person;

(vi) apply payments received by Administrative Agent from any Borrower to any Obligations, in such order as Administrative Agent shall determine, in its sole discretion; and

(vii) assign this Agreement in whole or in part.

(c) Each Borrower, as a primary, joint and several obligor with respect to the Obligations directly incurred by any other Borrower, waives:

(i) any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other Borrower, or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of any other Borrower from any cause (other than full payment of all Obligations), including, but not limited to, failure of consideration, breach of warranty, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction, and usury;

(ii) any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other guarantor or other Person;

(iii) any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any other Borrower or any principal of any other Borrower or any defect in the formation of any other Borrower or any principal of any other Borrower;

(iv) any defense based upon the application by any other Borrower of the proceeds of the credit facilities for purposes other than the purposes represented by such other Borrower to Administrative Agent or intended or understood by Administrative Agent or such Borrower;

(v) any defense based on such Borrower’s rights, under statute or otherwise, to require Administrative Agent to sue any other Borrower or otherwise to exhaust its rights and remedies against any other Borrower or any other Person or against any collateral before seeking to enforce its right to require such Borrower to satisfy the Obligations of any other Borrower;

(vi) any defense based on Administrative Agent’s failure at any time to require strict performance by any Borrower of any provision of the Security Documents. Such Borrower agrees that no such failure shall waive, alter or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance therewith. Nothing contained herein shall prevent Administrative Agent from foreclosing on any Lien, or exercising any rights available to Administrative Agent thereunder, and the exercise of any such rights shall not constitute a legal or equitable discharge of such Borrower;

(vii) any defense arising from any act or omission of Administrative Agent which changes the scope of such Borrower’s risks hereunder;

(viii) any defense based upon Administrative Agent’s election of any remedy against such Borrower or any other Borrower; any defense based on the order in which Administrative Agent enforces its remedies;

(ix) any defense based on (A) Administrative Agent’s surrender, release, exchange, substitution, dealing with or taking any additional collateral, (B) Administrative Agent’s abstaining from taking advantage of or realizing upon any Lien or other guaranty, and (C) any impairment of collateral securing the Obligations, including, but not limited to, Administrative Agent’s failure to perfect or maintain a Lien in such collateral;

(x) any defense based upon Administrative Agent’s failure to disclose to such Borrower any information concerning any other Borrower’s financial condition or any other circumstances bearing on any other Borrower’s ability to pay the Obligations;

(xi) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other respects more burdensome than that of a principal;

(xii) any defense based upon Administrative Agent’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Bankruptcy Code § 1111(b)(2) or any successor statute;

(xiii) any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Bankruptcy Code § 364;

(xiv) any defense based on Administrative Agent’s failure to be diligent or to satisfy any other standard imposed on a secured party, in exercising rights with respect to collateral securing the Obligations;

(xv) except as otherwise expressly set forth herein: notice of acceptance hereof; notice of the existence, creation or acquisition of any Obligation; notice of any Event of Default; notice of the amount of the Obligations outstanding from time to time; notice of any other fact which might increase such Borrower’s risk; diligence; presentment; demand of payment; protest; filing of claims with a court in the event of any other Borrower’s receivership or bankruptcy and all other notices and demands to which such Borrower might otherwise be entitled (and agrees the same shall not have to be made on the other Borrower as a condition precedent to such Borrower’s obligations hereunder);

(xvi) any defense based on errors and omissions by Administrative Agent in connection with its administration of the credit facilities;

(xvii) any defense based on application of fraudulent conveyance or transfer law or shareholder distribution law to any of the Obligations or the security therefor;

(xviii) any defense based on Administrative Agent’s failure to seek relief from stay or adequate protection in any other Borrower’s bankruptcy proceeding or any other act or omission by Administrative Agent which impairs such Borrower’s prospective subrogation rights;

(xix) any defense based on legal prohibition of Administrative Agent’s acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations during the occurrence of an Event of Default or any other legal prohibition on enforcement of any other right or remedy of Administrative Agent with respect to the Obligations and the security therefor;

(xx) any defense available to a surety under applicable law; and

(xxi) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of such Borrower hereunder or the enforcement hereof.

(d) Each Borrower further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall not be impaired in any manner whatsoever by any bankruptcy, extensions, moratoria or other relief granted to any other Borrower pursuant to any statute presently in force or hereafter enacted.

(e) Each Borrower authorizes Administrative Agent to exercise, in its sole discretion, any right, remedy or combination thereof which may then be available to Administrative Agent in accordance with, and subject to standards established by, this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, since it is such Borrower’s intent that the Obligations be absolute, independent and unconditional obligations of such Borrower under all circumstances. Notwithstanding any foreclosure of any Lien with respect to any or all of any property securing the Obligations, whether by the exercise of the power of sale contained therein, by an action for judicial foreclosure or by an acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, each Borrower shall remain bound under such Borrower’s guaranty of the Obligations directly incurred by any other Borrower.

1. The Assignor hereby irrevocably sells and assigns to the Assignee, without recourse to the Assignor, and the Assignee hereby irrevocably purchases and assumes from the Assignor, without recourse to the Assignor, as of the Effective Date, an undivided interest (the “Assigned Interest”) in and to all of the Assignor’s rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement respecting those, and only those, portions of the financing facilities contained in the Credit Agreement as are set forth on Schedule 1 (collectively, the “Assigned Facilities”), in an amount for each of the Assigned Facilities as set forth on Schedule 1.

2. The Assignor: (i) makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any other instrument, document or agreement executed or delivered in connection therewith (collectively the “Loan Documents”), or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Credit Agreement, any Collateral thereunder or any of the other Loan Documents, other than a representation and warranty that the Assignor is the legal and beneficial owner of the Assigned Interest and that the Assigned Interest is free and clear of any adverse claim; and (ii) makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to (x) the financial condition of any Loan Party, or (y) the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its respective obligations under the Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents.

The Borrowers hereby waive diligence, presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind whatsoever. The non-exercise by the holder of any of its rights hereunder in any particular instance shall not constitute a waiver thereof in that or any subsequent instance.

This Note is one of the Notes referred to in the Credit Agreement (and is secured by the Collateral referred to therein), which, among other things, contains provisions for the acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the happening of certain events, for optional and mandatory prepayment of the principal hereof prior to the maturity hereof and for the amendment or waiver of certain provisions of the Credit Agreement, all upon the terms and conditions therein specified.
