ARTICLE II

Amount and Terms of the Commitments and Letters of Credit

Section 2.1

Commitments.

(a) Revolving Advances. Each Lender agrees, severally but not jointly, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Revolving Advances to the Borrowers from time to time during the period from the date hereof to and including the Revolving Commitment Termination Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding that Lender’s Revolving Commitment Amount, less that Lender’s Percentage (giving effect to Section 2.7(j) with respect to Letters of Credit) of the sum of the then outstanding Swing Line Advances and the then outstanding L/C Amount. The total amount of the Revolving Advances outstanding hereunder at any time shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount minus the sum of the then outstanding Swing Line Advances and the then outstanding L/C Amount. Within the limits of each Lender’s Revolving Commitment Amount, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay pursuant to Section 2.11 and reborrow under this Section 2.1. If so requested by any Lender, the obligation of any Borrower to repay Revolving Advances made by that Lender shall be evidenced by a single promissory note of such Borrower (each, a “Revolving Note”) payable to that Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto. The Revolving Advances shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date thereof until paid as set forth in Section 2.3.

-22-

(b) Term Loans. Each Lender agrees, severally but not jointly, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, to make a Term Loan to the Company in Dollars on the Effective Date in a principal amount equal to that Lender’s Term Commitment Amount. The total amount of Term Loans made hereunder on the Effective Date shall not exceed the Aggregate Term Commitment Amount. No amount of the Term Loans which are repaid or prepaid by the Company may be reborrowed hereunder. If so requested by any Lender, the obligation of the Company to repay Term Loans made by that Lender shall be evidenced by a single promissory note of the Company (each, a “Term Note”) payable to that Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto. The Term Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date thereof until paid as set forth in Section 2.3.

Section 2.2

Procedure for Making Advances.

(a) Revolving Advances. Each Borrowing under Section 2.1(a) shall occur following written notice from a Borrower to the Administrative Agent or telephonic request from any person purporting to be authorized to request Advances on behalf of a Borrower. Each such notice or request shall specify (a) the identity of the Borrower (if other than the Company), (b) the date of the requested Borrowing, (c) the amount thereof, (d) if any portion of such Borrowing will bear interest at a Eurocurrency Rate or be made in an Alternative Currency, the Interest Period selected by the applicable Borrower with respect thereto, and (e) if such Borrowing will be made in an Alternative Currency, the Alternative Currency in which such Borrowing will be made. Such notice or request must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on the day on which such Borrowing is to occur or, if all or any portion of the Borrowing will bear interest at a Eurocurrency Rate or be made in an Alternative Currency, not later than three Business Days (or in the case of an Alternative Currency Funding, four Business Days) prior to the date on which such Borrowing is to occur. Concurrent with any such notice or request, the applicable Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent in writing (which may be by facsimile transmission) the certificate required by Section 3.3(b). Upon receiving a request for a Borrowing under Section 2.1, and in any event not later than 1:30 p.m. on the date that the requested Borrowing is to occur, or, if the requested Borrowing is to bear interest at a Eurocurrency Rate or be made in an Alternative Currency, the close of business on the day that the request is received, the Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of the amount of the requested Borrowing, the amount of each Lender’s Revolving Advance with respect thereto, and, if applicable, the fact that the Borrowing will bear interest at a Eurocurrency Rate and the Interest Period selected by the applicable Borrower. Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, each Lender shall remit its Percentage of the requested Borrowing to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds. So long as a Lender receives notice of the requested Borrowing prior to 1:30 p.m. on the date that the requested Borrowing is to occur, or, if the requested Borrowing is to bear interest at a Eurocurrency Rate, the close of business on the day that the request is received, that Lender will make its Revolving Advance with respect to that Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 p.m. on the date called for in such notice. Prior to the close of business on the day of the requested Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall disburse such funds by crediting the same to the applicable Borrower’s demand deposit account maintained with the Administrative Agent or in such other manner as the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower may from time to time agree. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to disburse the requested Borrowing if any condition set forth in Article III has not been satisfied on the day of the requested Borrowing. Each Borrowing shall be in the amount of $500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 greater than $500,000; provided, however, that any portion of such Borrowing bearing interest at a Eurocurrency Rate must be in the amount of $3,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 greater than $3,000,000. The applicable Borrower shall promptly confirm each telephonic request for an Advance by executing and delivering an appropriate confirmation certificate to the Administrative Agent. However, the Borrowers shall be obligated to repay all Advances for which any Borrower actually received the moneys (including but not limited to all Advances the proceeds of which were deposited in any account of a Borrower) or in respect of which the Administrative Agent reasonably believed the person requesting the same to be authorized to do so, notwithstanding the fact that the person requesting the same was not in fact authorized so to do. Any request for an Advance shall be deemed to be a representation that the statements set forth in Section 3.3 are correct. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision hereof, Borrowings which are not denominated in Dollars (and continuations, payments and prepayments thereof) may be made in such amounts and increments in the applicable Alternative Currency as may from time to time be prescribed by or acceptable to the Administrative Agent acting reasonably.

-23-

(b) Term Loans. The Company shall give the Administrative Agent written notice not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Effective Date requesting that the Lenders make the Term Loans as Base Rate Fundings on such date (provided that the Company may request, no later than three Business Days prior to the Effective Date, that the Lenders make the Term Loans as Eurocurrency Rate Fundings if the Company has delivered to the Administrative Agent a letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent indemnifying the Lenders in the manner set forth in Section 2.16). Upon receipt of such written notice from the Company, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. So long as a Lender receives notice of the requested Borrowing prior to 1:30 p.m. on the Effective Date, that Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 p.m. on the Effective Date, an amount equal to such Lender’s Term Commitment Amount. The Company hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of the Term Loans in immediately available funds by wire transfer to such Person or Persons as may be designated by the Company in writing.

Section 2.3

Interest.

(a) The Revolving Advances and the Term Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date thereof until paid as set forth in this Section 2.3.

(b) Except as set forth in this Section, the principal balance of each Revolving Advance shall bear interest at the Base Rate.

(c) The principal balance of each Eurocurrency Rate Funding shall bear interest at the Eurocurrency Rate applicable thereto during the Interest Period applicable thereto.

-24-

(d) At the election of a Borrower, which may be exercised from time to time, a Borrower may request in writing or by telephone that a Eurocurrency Rate be applicable for the portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Advances or the Term Loans to that Borrower (including any Revolving Advance requested or to be requested) and for the Interest Period indicated by that Borrower in its request; provided, however, that in no event shall more than eight Eurocurrency Rate Fundings be outstanding at any one time as to all Borrowers combined; and provided further that this paragraph (d) (other than the preceding proviso) shall not be applicable to Alternative Currency Fundings. The portion of the outstanding balance of the Advances for which a Eurocurrency Rate is requested (i) must be in the amount (as to all Advances combined) of $3,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 greater than $3,000,000, and (ii) if such request relates to Advances already outstanding, must, on the first day of the applicable Interest Period, either (1) bear interest at the Base Rate, or (2) bear interest at a Eurocurrency Rate with respect to which the Interest Period expires on such first day. In no event may a Borrower select an Interest Period extending beyond the Commitment Termination Date or the Maturity Date, as applicable. A request for a Eurocurrency Rate (i) must be received by the Administrative Agent before 10:00 a.m. on the day three Business Days before the first day of the proposed Interest Period (and the Administrative Agent shall give the Lenders prompt notice thereof), and (ii) may not be rescinded by a Borrower after such request has been made. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the applicable Eurocurrency Rate shall (subject to fluctuations in the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Margin) be the interest rate applicable for the proposed Interest Period to the portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Advances to which the Eurocurrency Rate request related (and the remaining part of the principal balance of the Advances, if any, shall continue to bear interest at the rate or rates previously applicable to such amounts). At the termination of such Interest Period, the interest rate applicable to the portion of the principal balance of the Advances to which the Eurocurrency Rate request was applicable shall revert to the Base Rate unless a new Eurocurrency Rate request is made by a Borrower in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to permit the application of a Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period if any Lender, in its sole discretion, determines that deposits in amounts equal to the requested amount, maturing at the end of the proposed Interest Period are not readily available to such Lender from major banks in the London interbank market, and (ii) without the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent will not permit the application of a Eurocurrency Rate for any interest period if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing when the request for the Eurocurrency Rate is made. Absent manifest error, the records of the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive evidence as to the amount of the Advances bearing interest at a Eurocurrency Rate, the applicable Eurocurrency Rate and the date on which the Interest Period applicable to such Eurocurrency Rate expires.

(e) If any Lender, in its sole discretion, determines that it is unlawful for it to continue to maintain its portion of any Eurocurrency Rate Funding outstanding at the time of such determination, such Lender may, by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Company, require the immediate repayment thereof or, if legally permissible, convert its portion of such Eurocurrency Rate Funding to an Advance bearing interest at the Base Rate in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such portion of the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Funding. Any such Advance shall be applied to the prepayment of that Lender’s portion of such Eurocurrency Rate Funding, but (i) no amount shall be required to be paid under Section 2.16 on account of such prepayment, and (ii) except as provided in Section 7.2 upon acceleration of the Obligations, no interest shall be due and payable with respect to such Advance until the end of the applicable Interest Period.

-25-

(f) Unless the Borrowers repay an Alternative Currency Funding on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto in the applicable Alternative Currency (whether through a new Borrowing in the applicable Alternative Currency or otherwise), the outstanding principal balance of such Alternative Currency Funding shall be converted from the applicable Alternative Currency to Dollars on the expiration of such Interest Period. Upon any such conversion to Dollars, the Dollar Equivalent resulting from such conversion (as determined by the Administrative Agent) shall be deemed a Borrowing by the applicable Borrower from the Lenders hereunder consisting of Revolving Advances by each Lender in proportion to their shares of the corresponding Alternative Currency Funding. The principal balance of such Borrowing shall initially bear interest at the Base Rate, but the rate of interest that applies to such Borrowing may be converted in accordance with paragraph (d).

(g) If, as a result of any conversion of an Alternative Currency Funding to Dollars pursuant to paragraph (f) or any conversion of the Lenders’ reimbursement obligation with respect to any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.7, the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of all Revolving Outstandings exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitment Amounts of the Lenders, the Borrowers shall on demand by the Administrative Agent repay the amount of such excess, together with interest thereon from the date of such conversion until payment at the Base Rate.

Section 2.4

Limitation of Revolving Outstandings.

If at any time (as determined by the Administrative Agent acting reasonably, based upon the Dollar Equivalent of all Revolving Outstandings), (a) solely because of currency fluctuation, the outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Advances plus the sum of the then outstanding Swing Line Advances and the then outstanding L/C Amount exceeds one hundred and three percent (103%) of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount or (b) for any other reason, the outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Advances plus the sum of all then outstanding Swing Line Advances and the then outstanding L/C Amount exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount, then, in each such case, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Company in writing and such notice shall include a reasonably detailed calculation of the excess amount, and, within two Business Days following the receipt of such notice by the Company, the Company shall do, or cause to be done, any of the following (or any combination of the following) solely to the extent necessary for the Dollar Equivalent of all Revolving Outstandings not to exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount: the Company shall, or shall cause another Borrower to, as applicable, (i) repay outstanding Swing Line Advances (and/or reduce any pending request for a borrowing of such Swing Line Advances submitted in respect of such Swing Line Advances on such day) in whole or in part, (ii) repay outstanding Revolving Advances which are Base Rate Fundings (and/or reduce any pending requests for a borrowing or continuation or conversion of such Base Rate Fundings submitted in respect of such fundings on such day) in whole or in part, (iii) repay outstanding Revolving Advances which are Eurocurrency Rate Fundings denominated in Dollars (and/or reduce any pending requests for a borrowing or continuation or conversion of such fundings submitted in respect of such fundings on such day) in whole or in part, (iv) repay outstanding Alternative Currency Fundings (and/or reduce any pending requests for a borrowing or continuation or conversion of such fundings submitted in respect of such fundings on such day) in whole or in part or (v) with respect to any Letters of Credit then outstanding, make a payment of cash collateral into a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders (such cash collateral to be applied in accordance with Section 2.7(j)), and the Dollar Equivalent of such cash collateral shall be applied towards reduction of any excess of the Dollar Equivalent of all Revolving Outstandings over the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount.

-26-

Section 2.6

Default Rates.

Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, and so long as such Event of Default continues without written waiver thereof by the Lenders, a default increment equal to 200 basis points (2.00%) shall be added to the Base Rate Margin, Eurocurrency Rate Margin and Facility Fee Rate. Inclusion of such default increment in calculating the Base Rate Margin, Eurocurrency Rate Margin and Facility Fee Rate shall not be deemed a waiver or excuse of any such Event of Default.

Section 2.7

Letters of Credit.

(a) Any Borrower may from time to time request that the Issuing Bank issue one or more letters of credit (each, together with each Existing Letter of Credit, a “Letter of Credit”) for the account of that Borrower. No Letter of Credit shall be issued if (i) the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of that Letter of Credit, together with the sum of the then-applicable L/C Amount and the aggregate principal balance of the Revolving Advances then outstanding, would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount, or (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of that Letter of Credit, together with the then-applicable L/C Amount, would exceed the L/C Sublimit.

(b) At least three days prior to the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall execute a letter of credit application and reimbursement agreement in the Issuing Bank’s standard form, as required by the Issuing Bank (an “L/C Application”).

(c) Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency specified by the applicable Borrower in its application and reimbursement agreement.

(d) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued in a form acceptable to the Issuing Bank. Unless otherwise approved by all of the Lenders, no Letter of Credit shall have an initial or any renewal term ending more than one year after the date of issuance or renewal, as applicable, or ending later than five Business Days prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date; provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may have a term extending for up to one year after the Revolving Commitment Termination Date subject to the requirement that the Borrowers either provide cash collateral in an amount equal to the L/C Amount of such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.7(h) or cause a “back to back” standby letter of credit satisfactory to the Issuing Bank to be provided to the Issuing Bank at or prior to the time of the issuance of such Letter of Credit.

-28-

(e) A letter of credit fee shall be due and payable to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in connection with each Letter of Credit. The letter of credit fee payable with respect to each standby Letter of Credit shall be computed at an annual rate equal to the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Margin in effect from time to time, applied to the face amount of such Letter of Credit outstanding from time to time, from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit until the expiration thereof, payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter and on the expiration date of such Letter of Credit. The letter of credit fee payable with respect to each commercial Letter of Credit shall be computed at an annual rate equal to one half (50%) of the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Margin in effect on the issuance date, applied to the initial face amount of such Letter of Credit, payable on the date of issuance. In addition to the applicable letter of credit fee, a fronting fee shall be due and payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank in connection with each Letter of Credit, in the amount specified in the applicable Fee Letter. In addition, the Borrowers shall pay or reimburse the Issuing Bank for such additional fees as are specified in the applicable Fee Letter and for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Bank in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for any period during which a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any letter of credit fees pursuant to this Section 2.7(e) otherwise payable to the account of such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided cash collateral or other credit support arrangements satisfactory to the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.7(k), but instead, the Borrowers shall pay to the non-Defaulting Lenders the amount of such letter of credit commissions in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.7(j), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Issuing Bank for its own account.

(f) The Borrowers shall pay the amount of each draft drawn under any Letter of Credit to the Issuing Bank on demand (or, if demand is not earlier made, on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date), together with interest at the Base Rate from the date that such draft is paid by the Issuing Bank until payment of such amount in full. The Issuing Bank shall provide notice to the Company or the applicable Borrower of payment of the draft within one Business Day of such payment. The Issuing Bank may (at its option) charge any deposit account maintained by any Borrower with the Issuing Bank for the amount of any draft drawn under a Letter of Credit. Unless the Borrowers make such payment with respect to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit in the applicable Alternative Currency on the same Business Day as the day of payment of such draft by the Issuing Bank, the Borrowers’ obligation to pay the amount of such draft shall be converted from the applicable Alternative Currency to Dollars following such payment by the Issuing Bank.

-29-

(g) Each Lender shall be deemed to hold a participation interest in each Letter of Credit equal to that Lender’s Percentage of the face amount of that Letter of Credit. If the Issuing Bank makes any payment pursuant to the terms of any Letter of Credit and is not promptly reimbursed, the Issuing Bank may request that each other Lender pay such Lender’s Percentage of the unreimbursed amount (which amount shall, in the case of an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, have been converted to Dollars as set forth in Section 2.7(f)). Upon receipt of any such request prior to 1:30 p.m. on a Business Day, the recipient shall be unconditionally and irrevocably obligated to pay its Percentage of the unreimbursed amount to the Issuing Bank in immediately available funds prior to 3:00 p.m. on such date. Notices received after 1:30 p.m. shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day. If payment is not made by a Lender when due hereunder, interest on the unpaid amount shall accrue from and including the date of the Issuing Bank’s request to the date of payment at the Federal Funds Rate. After making any payment to the Issuing Bank under this subsection in connection with a particular Letter of Credit, a Lender shall be entitled to participate to the extent of its Percentage in the related reimbursements received by the Issuing Bank from the Borrowers or otherwise. Upon receiving any such reimbursement, the Issuing Bank will distribute to each Lender its Percentage of such reimbursement. At the option of the Administrative Agent, payment by the Lenders hereunder may be deemed a Revolving Advance.

(h) Unless otherwise agreed by each Lender in writing, the Borrowers shall deposit in the Cash Collateral Account, on the fifth Business Day preceding the Commitment Termination Date, an amount equal to the then-applicable L/C Amount, less the balance (if any) then outstanding in the Cash Collateral Account. Such deposit shall be made (i) with respect to each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, in the applicable Alternative Currency, and (ii) with respect to each Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars, in Dollars.

(i) From and after the effectiveness of the obligation of the Lenders to make the initial Credit Extension as described in Section 3.1, each of the Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute, for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, a Letter of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder.

(j) During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire or fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.7, the “Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (A) the Revolving Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances of that Lender.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.7, the Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit at a time when any other Lender is a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuing Bank has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it to eliminate the Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to any such Defaulting Lender’s reimbursement obligations hereunder (it being understood that arrangements pursuant to Section 2.7(j) or cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s Percentage of the liability with respect to such Letter of Credit shall be deemed satisfactory to the Issuing Bank). On demand by the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent from time to time, the Borrowers shall cash collateralize each Defaulting Lender’s Percentage of the outstanding L/C Amount on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank. Any such cash collateral shall be deposited in a separate account with the Administrative Agent, subject to the exclusive dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, as collateral (solely for the benefit of the Issuing Bank) for the payment and performance of each Defaulting Lender’s Percentage of outstanding Letters of Credit. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank immediately for each Defaulting Lender’s Percentage of any drawing under any Letter of Credit which has not otherwise been reimbursed by the Borrowers or such Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.7.

-30-

Section 2.8

Facility Fee.

(a) The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a facility fee computed each day from the Effective Date through the Revolving Commitment Termination Date (and thereafter so long as there shall be any Revolving Outstandings) at an annual rate equal to the Facility Fee Rate in effect on such day applied to the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount (whether used or unused) hereunder (or, as applicable, applied to the remaining Revolving Outstandings after the Revolving Commitment Termination Date); provided, however, that for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender (i) shall not be entitled to receive any such facility fee (and the Company shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

(b) The facility fee set forth in this Section shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December during the term of the Revolving Commitments. Any facility fees remaining unpaid on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date shall be due and payable on that date and any facility fees accruing thereafter shall be payable upon demand.

Section 2.9

Other Fees.

The Borrowers shall pay to (i) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers, for the benefit of the Lenders, the upfront fee set forth in the Fee Letter described in clause (a) of the definition thereof, (ii) the Administrative Agent and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, for their own account and not for the benefit of the Lenders, certain additional fees in the amounts set forth in the Fee Letter described in clause (b) of the definition thereof, and (iii) the Syndication Agent and KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., for their own account and not for the benefit of the Lenders, certain additional fees in the amounts set forth in the Fee Letter described in clause (c) of the definition thereof.

Section 2.10

Termination or Reduction of the Commitments.

The Company shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders) permanently to terminate the Revolving Commitments in whole or permanently to reduce the Revolving Commitment Amounts in part, without penalty or premium, provided that (a) the Revolving Commitments may not be terminated while any Revolving Advance or L/C Amount remains outstanding, (b) each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or a multiple thereof, (c) any partial reduction of the Revolving Commitment Amounts shall be pro rata as to each Lender in accordance with that Lender’s Percentage, and (d) no reduction shall reduce the Revolving Commitment Amounts to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate Revolving Outstandings (after giving effect to any prepayments of Revolving Advances to be made on or prior to the effective date of such reduction) at the time. Each reduction in the Revolving Commitment Amounts hereunder shall constitute a corresponding reduction in the Maximum Aggregate Commitment Amount. Unless previously terminated, the Term Commitments shall terminate upon the making of the Term Loans on the Effective Date.

-31-

Section 2.11

Voluntary Prepayments.

The Borrowers may prepay the Advances in whole or in part, without penalty or premium, at any time and from time to time; provided that (a) any prepayment of the Revolving Advances shall be applied pro rata to the prepayment of each Lender’s Revolving Advances, (b) any prepayment of Term Loans shall be applied to the principal installments thereof in inverse order of maturity, (c) any prepayment of the full amount of the Advances shall include accrued interest thereon, (d) any prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Funding shall be accompanied by compensation as specified in Section 2.16, (e) any prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Funding that is not an Alternative Currency Funding shall be made only upon three Business Days’ prior notice, and any prepayment of any Alternative Currency Funding shall be made only upon four Business Days’ prior notice, and (f) each prepayment of the Advances (other than prepayment of the Advances in full) shall be in the principal amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000. Each partial prepayment of principal on the Advances shall be applied, first, to that portion of such Advances bearing interest at the Base Rate, and, second, to that portion of such Advances bearing interest at a Eurocurrency Rate, in inverse order of the maturities of the Interest Periods applicable thereto.

Section 2.12

Computation of Interest and Fees.

All interest on (a) Base Rate Fundings accruing based on the Prime Rate and (b) Eurocurrency Rate Fundings denominated in Canadian dollars or English pounds sterling will be calculated based on the actual days elapsed in a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. All other interest and all fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

Section 2.13

Payments.

(a) All payments of the Obligations shall be made to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim at such office as the Administrative Agent may from time to time designate. All payments of principal and interest on any Advance shall be made in Dollars, except that Alternative Currency Fundings and reimbursement obligations arising from Alternative Currency Letters of Credit shall be repaid in that same Alternative Currency or converted as set forth in Section 2.7(f). Payments received after noon on any day shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day. Subject to Section 9.8(c), the Advances made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge against any demand deposit account the Borrowers maintain with the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the accrued interest and fees from time to time due and payable to the Lender Parties under the Notes or hereunder, or (at the Lenders’ option) to effect a Borrowing in such amount, all without receipt of any request for such charge or Borrowing.

-32-

(b) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars or any Alternative Currency (the “Specified Currency”) into another currency (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange which shall be applied shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the Specified Currency with that amount of the Judgment Currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment is rendered. The obligation of the Borrowers with respect to any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (each, an “Entitled Person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder or under the Notes in the Judgment Currency, such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase and transfer to the required location of payment the Alternative Currency with the amount of the Judgment Currency so adjudged to be due; and the Borrowers hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agree to indemnify such Entitled Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in the applicable Alternative Currency, any difference between the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in the Alternative Currency and the amount of the Alternative Currency so purchased and transferred on that Business Day.

(c) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.7), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank and/or the Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the Issuing Bank and/or the Swing Line Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Advance or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Company may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Advances under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Company against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (i) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Revolving Advances or funded participations in Swing Line Advances or Letters of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (ii) such Revolving Advances or funded participations in Swing Line Advances or Letters of Credit were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.3 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolving Advances of, and funded participations in Swing Line Advances or Letters of Credit owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Revolving Advances of, or funded participations in Swing Line Advances or Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

-33-

Section 2.14

Payment on Non-Business Days.

Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in each case be included in the computation of payment of interest thereon.

Section 2.15

Use of Advances and Letters of Credit.

The proceeds of each Borrowing, and each Letter of Credit, shall be used by the Borrowers for their general corporate purposes (including commercial paper backup) or as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 5.08.

Section 2.16

Funding Indemnification.

The Borrowers shall, in addition to other amounts payable hereunder, also compensate any Lender, upon written request by that Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all losses and expenses in respect of any interest or other consideration paid by that Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it or deposited with it to maintain any portion of the principal balance of that Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Fundings which that Lender may sustain to the extent not otherwise compensated for hereunder and not mitigated by the reemployment of such funds if any prepayment of any such portion occurs on a date that is not the expiration date of the relevant Interest Period or if a Borrowing or prepayment in whole or in part of a Eurocurrency Rate Funding fails to occur. A certificate as to any such loss or expense (including calculations, in reasonable detail, showing how that Lender computed such loss or expense) shall be promptly submitted by that Lender to the Company and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding as to the amount thereof. Such loss or expense may be computed as though that Lender acquired deposits in the London interbank market to fund that portion of the principal balance whether or not that Lender actually did so.

-34-

Section 2.17

Taxes.

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.8(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

-35-

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, the applicable Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(g) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the applicable Borrower is a U.S. Borrower:

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

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

-36-

(2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) 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 substantially in the form of Exhibit I-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or W-8BEN-E); or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN (or W-8BEN-E), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I-2 or Exhibit I-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

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

-37-

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

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

-38-

Section 2.18

Increased Costs; Eurocurrency Rate Availability; Illegality.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law binding on or applicable to any Lender or the Issuing Bank shall:

(i)

impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or advances, loans or other credit extended or participated in by, such Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurocurrency Rate) or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be;

(ii)

subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii)

impose on such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than any taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Rate Advances made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting into or maintaining any Eurocurrency Rate Advance (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Advance), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon written request of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, that complies with paragraph (c) below, the Borrowers shall promptly pay to any such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Advances made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time within ten Business Days following written request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, that complies with paragraph (c) below, the Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

-39-

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. Any request from any Lender or the Issuing Bank for payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.18(a) or (b) shall include certification (i) that one of the events described in Section 2.18(a) or (b) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (ii) as to the reduction of the rate of return on capital resulting from such event and (iii) as to the additional amount or amounts requested by such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank complying with the immediately preceding sentence and setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Company shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither any Lender nor the Issuing Bank shall make demand for payment of increased costs under this Section unless such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, is generally imposing such increased costs on its similarly situated customers.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e) Additional Reserve Costs. For so long as any Lender is required to make special deposits with the Bank of England and/or The Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or to comply with reserve assets, liquidity, cash margin or other requirements of any monetary or other authority (including any such requirement imposed by the Bank of England, the European Central Bank or the European System of Central Banks, but excluding requirements reflected in the computation of the Eurocurrency Rate) in respect of any of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Advances, such Lender shall be entitled to require the applicable Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Lender’s Advances subject to such requirements, additional interest on such Advance at a rate per annum specified by such Lender to be the cost to such Lender of complying with such requirements in relation to such Advance. Any additional interest owed pursuant to this subsection shall be determined in reasonable detail by the applicable Lender, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and notified to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) at least five Business Days before each date on which interest is payable for the applicable Advance, and such additional interest so notified to the applicable Borrower by such Lender shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender on each date on which interest is payable for such Advance.

-40-

(f) Limitation on Obligations of Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.18, if a Lender changes its applicable Lending Office (other than (i) pursuant to paragraph (g) below or (ii) after an Event of Default under Section 7.1(a), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause the Company to become obligated to pay any additional amount or compensation under this Section 2.18, the Company shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount.

(g) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requires the Borrowers to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or requests compensation under Section 2.18, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances 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 2.17 or Section 2.18, 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.

(h) Eurocurrency Rate Availability. If the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent determine that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, in connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Funding or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Funding and as a result the Eurocurrency Base Rate cannot be determined as provided in the definition thereof, (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Funding, or (iii) the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Funding does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Advance, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Fundings shall be suspended (as set forth in the immediately following sentence with respect to pending or outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Fundings) until the Administrative Agent (acting on its own or at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (a) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Funding or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Base Rate Funding in the amount specified therein and (b) any Advances that were to be continued as Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall, on the first day of the Interest Period immediately succeeding the date of receipt of such notice (or if such notice has been received on the first day of an Interest Period, on such date), be continued as Advances bearing interest at the Base Rate.

-41-

(i) If, in any applicable jurisdiction, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender or any Designated Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender or its applicable Designated Lender to (i) perform any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (ii) to fund or maintain its participation in any Advance or (iii) issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any Credit Extension such Person shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, then, upon the Administrative Agent notifying the Company, and until such notice by such Person is revoked, any obligation of such Person to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Credit Extension shall be suspended, and to the extent required by applicable law, cancelled. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall, (A) repay that Person’s participation in the Advances or other applicable Obligations on the last day of the Interest Period for each Advance or other Obligation occurring after the Administrative Agent has notified the Company or, if earlier, the date specified by such Person in the notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by applicable law) and (B) take all reasonable actions requested by such Person to mitigate or avoid such illegality.

The Company agrees that from time to time in connection with the designation of new Designated Subsidiaries it shall cause pre-existing Designated Subsidiaries to execute such amendments or modifications of the Guaranty as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate to assure that each Designated Subsidiary is liable under the Guaranty for the Obligations of all other Borrowers as to which the circumstances in clause (1)(A) or (1)(B) above are not applicable in the case of such Designated Subsidiary.

(a) Swing Line Advances may be made during the period from the date of this Agreement through and including the Revolving Commitment Termination Date.

(b) The maximum aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Advances that may be outstanding at any given time shall be $20,000,000; provided, however, that (i) the maximum aggregate outstanding principal amount of Swing Line Advances made by either Swing Line Lender individually shall at no time exceed $10,000,000 and (ii) the sum of the Swing Line Advances plus the aggregate amount of Revolving Advances outstanding under Section 2.1(a) and the L/C Amount shall never exceed the sum of the Revolving Commitment Amounts.

(c) Each Swing Line Advance shall occur following written or telephonic request to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly remit such notice to each Swing Line Lender) from any person purporting to be authorized to request Advances on behalf of the Company. Each such notice or request must be received by the Administrative Agent no later than 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day on which the Swing Line Advance is to occur and shall specify (i) that the Company is requesting a Swing Line Advance, and (ii) the aggregate amount thereof (which shall be deemed to be requested half from one Swing Line Lender and half from the other except to the extent that such allocation would result in the aggregate Swing Line Advances from either Swing Line Lender exceeding $10,000,000 (in which case the aggregate requested Swing Line Advances shall be deemed requested from the applicable Swing Line Lender only to the extent resulting in such Swing Line Lender’s aggregate Swing Line Advances equaling $10,000,000 and the balance from the other Swing Line Lender)). Prior to the close of business on the date of receipt of each such notice or request, each Swing Line Lender which has in its sole discretion elected to make such Swing Line Advance shall disburse the Swing Line Advance by making its Swing Line Advance available to the Administrative Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly credit the same to the Company’s demand deposit account maintained with the Administrative Agent or in such other manner as the Swing Line Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Company may from time to time agree in writing.

Upon receiving such notice and request, and in any event not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date of the notice and request, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the amount of the requested Borrowing, that the proceeds of the Borrowing are to be used to repay a Swing Line Advance and of the amount of each Lender’s Revolving Advance with respect thereto. Unless one of the events described in Sections 7.1(h) or (i) shall have occurred with respect to the Company, then subject to the provisions of Section 2.20(i) below, so long as a Lender receives such notice from the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date the requested Borrowing is to occur, each Lender shall make its Revolving Advance with respect to that Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 p.m. on the same day.

Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to refund Swing Line Advances in accordance with the terms of this Section is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, non-satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article III.

(h) The Company may prepay any Swing Line Advance on the Business Day it is made or on any subsequent Business Day; provided, however, that each such prepayment shall be in the principal amount of $500,000 or an integral multiple thereof.

In no event shall any such Incremental Commitments cause the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount plus the Aggregate Term Commitment Amount to exceed the Maximum Aggregate Commitment Amount. Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Company proposes that any Incremental Commitment shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than thirty (30) days after the date on which such notice is delivered to Administrative Agent. The Company may invite any Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender and/or any Approved Fund, and/or any other Person reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender, to provide an Incremental Commitment (any such Person, an “Incremental Lender”). Any Lender or any Incremental Lender offered or approached to provide all or a portion of any Incremental Commitment may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Commitment. Any Incremental Commitment shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that:

(i)

no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to any Incremental Commitment;

(ii)

any loan made pursuant to such Incremental Commitment (each an “Incremental Advance”) shall be a “Revolving Advance” or a “Term Loan”, as applicable, for all purposes hereof and shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the Revolving Advances or the Term Loans, as applicable, and shall be guaranteed to the same extent as the other Credit Extensions on a pari passu basis;

such Incremental Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers executed and delivered by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Incremental Lenders (which agreement or agreements may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.22); and

(iv)

the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered any customary legal opinions or other documents (including, without limitation, a resolution duly adopted by the board of directors (or equivalent governing body) of the Company authorizing such Incremental Advances (for the avoidance of doubt, resolutions duly adopted by the board of directors (or equivalent governing body)) of the Company delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(c) which authorize such Incremental Advances shall be sufficient as to the Company so long as such resolutions are certified as of the applicable Increased Amount Date as remaining in full force and effect) reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction.

-47-

(b) The outstanding Revolving Advances and Percentages of Swing Line Advances and L/C Amounts will be reallocated by the Administrative Agent on the applicable Increased Amount Date among the Lenders (including the Incremental Lenders) in accordance with their revised Percentages (and the Lenders (including the Incremental Lenders) agree to make all payments and adjustments necessary to effect such reallocation and the Company shall pay any and all costs required pursuant to Section 2.16 in connection with such reallocation as if such reallocation were a repayment).

(c) On any Increased Amount Date on which any Incremental Commitment becomes effective, each Incremental Lender with an Incremental Commitment shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such Incremental Commitment. Thereafter it shall be entitled to the same voting rights as the existing Lenders and shall be included in any determination of the Required Lenders. The Incremental Lenders will not constitute a separate voting class for any purposes under this Agreement.

(g) A default (other than a default described in paragraph (f)) under any agreement relating to any item of Total Funded Debt of the Company or any Subsidiary (other than under any of the Loan Documents) or under any indenture or other instrument under which any such agreement has been issued or by which it is governed and the expiration of the applicable period of grace, if any, specified in such agreement if the effect of such default is to cause or to permit the holder of such item of Total Funded Debt (or trustee or agent on behalf of such holder) to cause such item of Total Funded Debt to come due prior to its stated maturity (or to cause or to permit the counterparty in respect of a Swap Contract to elect an early termination date in respect of such Swap Contract); provided, however, that no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred under this paragraph if the aggregate amount owing as to all such items of Total Funded Debt as to which such defaults have occurred and are continuing is less than $10,000,000; provided, further, that if such default shall be cured by the Company or such Subsidiary, or waived by the holders of such items of Total Funded Debt or counterparties in respect of such Swap Contracts, in each case prior to the commencement of any action under Section 7.2 and as may be permitted by such evidence of indebtedness, indenture, other instrument, or Swap Contract, then the Event of Default hereunder by reason of such default shall be deemed likewise to have been thereupon cured or waived.

-65-

Section 7.2

Rights and Remedies.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or at any time thereafter until such Event of Default is waived by the Required Lenders or cured, the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, and shall, upon the request of the Required Lenders, exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies:

(a) The Administrative Agent may, by notice to the Company, declare the Commitments, the Swing Line Lender’s commitment under Section 2.20 and the Issuing Bank’s commitment under Section 2.7 to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate.

(b) The Administrative Agent may, by notice to the Company, declare the entire unpaid principal amount of the Obligations then outstanding, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts payable under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Obligations, all such accrued interest and all such amounts shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers.

(c) If any Letter of Credit remains outstanding, the Administrative Agent may, by notice to the Company, require the Borrowers to deposit in the Cash Collateral Account immediately available funds equal to the aggregate face amount of all such outstanding Letters of Credit (less any amounts then on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account). Such funds shall be deposited (i) with respect to each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, in the applicable Alternative Currency, and (ii) with respect to each Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars, in Dollars.

(d) The Lenders may, without notice to the Borrowers and without further action, apply any and all money owing by any Lender to any Borrower to the payment of the Obligations then outstanding, including interest accrued thereon, and of all other sums then owing by the Borrowers hereunder. For purposes of this paragraph (d), “Lender” means the Lenders, as defined elsewhere in this Agreement, and any participant in the loans made hereunder; provided, however, that each such participant, by exercising its rights under this paragraph (d), agrees that it shall be obligated under Section 8.4 with respect to such payment as if it were a Lender for purposes of that Section.

-67-

(e) The Administrative Agent may exercise and enforce all rights and remedies available to it in respect of the Cash Collateral Account.

(f) The Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may exercise any other rights and remedies available to them by law or agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(i) hereof (whether or not such Event of Default also arises under Section 7.1(h) hereof), the Commitments shall terminate and the entire unpaid principal amount of the Obligations then outstanding, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts payable under this Agreement shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind.

Section 7.3

Pledge of Cash Collateral Account.

The Borrowers hereby pledge, and grant the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Lenders, including the Issuing Bank, a security interest in, all sums held in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time and all proceeds thereof as security for the payment of the Obligations, specifically including (without limitation) the Borrowers’ obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, whether such reimbursement obligation arises directly under this Agreement or under a separate reimbursement agreement. Upon request of the Company, the Administrative Agent shall permit the Borrowers to withdraw from the Cash Collateral Account, so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, the lesser of (a) the Excess Balance (as defined below), or (b) the balance of the Cash Collateral Account. If a Default or Event of Default then exists, the Administrative Agent shall, upon the request of the Company, apply the Excess Balance to the payment of the Obligations. As used herein, “Excess Balance” means (y) after the fifth Business Day preceding the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, the amount by which the balance of the Cash Collateral Account exceeds the L/C Amount, and (z) prior to the fifth Business Day preceding the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, the balance of the Cash Collateral Account. The Administrative Agent shall have full control of the Cash Collateral Account, and, except as set forth above, the Borrowers shall have no right to withdraw the funds maintained in the Cash Collateral Account.

Section 7.4

Crediting of Payments and Proceeds.

In the event that the Obligations have been accelerated pursuant to Section 7.2 or the Administrative Agent or any Lender has exercised any remedy set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, all payments received by the Lenders upon the Obligations having been accelerated and all net proceeds from the enforcement of the Obligations shall be applied:

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts, including attorney fees, payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, the Issuing Bank in its capacity as such and the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such (ratably among the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause First payable to them);

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders under the Loan Documents, including attorney fees (ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them);

-68-

Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Advances and outstanding L/C Amounts (ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them);

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Advances and unpaid L/C Amounts (ratably among the Lenders, in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them);

Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank, to cash collateralize any Letter of Credit Obligations then outstanding; and

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrowers or as otherwise required by applicable law.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent

Section 8.1

Authorization.

Each Lender, the holder of each Note and the Issuing Bank irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf to the extent provided herein or in any document or instrument delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, and to take such other action as may be reasonably incidental thereto.

Section 8.2

Distribution of Payments and Proceeds.

(a) After deduction of any costs of collection as hereinafter provided, the Administrative Agent shall remit to each Lender that Lender’s Percentage of all payments of principal, interest, Letter of Credit fees payable under Section 2.7(e) and facility fees payable under Section 2.8 that are received by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. Each Lender’s interest in the Loan Documents shall be payable solely from payments, collections and proceeds actually received by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents; and the Administrative Agent’s only liability to the Lenders hereunder shall be to account for each Lender’s Percentage of such payments, collections and proceeds in accordance with this Agreement. If the Administrative Agent is ever required for any reason to refund any such payments, collections or proceeds, each Lender will refund to the Administrative Agent, upon demand, its Percentage of such payments, collections or proceeds, together with its Percentage of interest or penalties, if any, payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with such refund. The Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, make payment to the Lenders in anticipation of receipt of payment from the Borrowers. If the Administrative Agent fails to receive any such anticipated payment from the Borrowers, each Lender shall promptly refund to the Administrative Agent, upon demand, any such payment made to it in anticipation of payment from the Borrowers, together with interest for each day on such amount until so refunded at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate for each such date.

-69-

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Lender has wrongfully refused to fund its Percentage of any Borrowing or other Advance or purchase its participation in a Swing Line Advance or in a Letter of Credit as required hereunder, or if the principal balance of any Lender’s Obligations is for any other reason less than its Percentage of the aggregate principal balances of the Lenders’ Obligations then outstanding, the Administrative Agent may remit all payments received by it to the other Lenders until such payments have reduced the aggregate amounts owed by the Borrowers to the extent that the aggregate amount owing to such Lender hereunder is equal to its Percentage of the aggregate amount owing to all of the Lenders hereunder. The provisions of this paragraph are intended only to set forth certain rules for the application of payments, proceeds and collections in the event that a Lender has breached its obligations hereunder and shall not be deemed to excuse any Lender from such obligations.

Section 8.3

Expenses.

All payments, collections and proceeds received or effected by the Administrative Agent may be applied, first, to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all costs, expenses, damages and liabilities at any time incurred by or imposed upon the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including but not limited to all reasonable attorney’s fees, foreclosure expenses and advances made to protect the security of collateral, if any, but excluding any costs, expenses, damages or liabilities arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent). If the Administrative Agent does not receive payments, collections or proceeds from the Borrowers or their properties sufficient to cover any such costs, expenses, damages or liabilities within 30 days after their incurrence or imposition, each Lender shall, upon demand, remit to the Administrative Agent its Percentage of the difference between (a) such costs, expenses, damages and liabilities, and (b) such payments, collections and proceeds.

Section 8.4

Payments Received Directly by Lenders.

If any Lender or other holder of a Note shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of offset or otherwise) on account of principal of or interest on any Advance other than through distributions made in accordance with Section 8.2, such Lender or holder shall promptly give notice of such fact to the Administrative Agent and shall purchase from the other Lenders or holders such participations in the Obligations held by them as shall be necessary to cause the purchasing Lender or holder to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender or holder, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchasing Lender restored to the extent of such recovery (but without interest thereon). The provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (a) any payment made pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (b) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Revolving Advances or participations in Swing Line Advances and Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

-70-

Section 8.5

Indemnification.

The Administrative Agent shall not be required to do any act hereunder or under any other document or instrument delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of this Agreement or the Notes or any documents or instrument delivered hereunder or in connection herewith unless indemnified to its satisfaction by the holders of the Obligations against loss, cost, liability and expense (other than any such loss, cost, liability or expense attributable to the Administrative Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct). If any indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and not commence or cease to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

Section 8.6

Exculpation.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon advice of counsel concerning legal matters, and upon this Agreement, any Loan Document and any schedule, certificate, statement, report, notice or other writing which it in good faith believes to be genuine or to have been presented by a proper person. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall (i) be responsible for any recitals, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of this Agreement, any Loan Document, or any other instrument or document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (ii) be responsible for the validity, genuineness, perfection, effectiveness, enforceability, existence, value or enforcement of any collateral security, (iii) be under any duty to inquire into or pass upon any of the foregoing matters or upon the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3 (other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to thereto), or to make any inquiry concerning the performance by the Borrowers or any other obligor of its obligations (it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Material Adverse Change, Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice thereof from the Company or any Lender, referring to this Agreement, describing such Material Adverse Change, Default or Event of Default), or (iv) in any event, be liable as such for any action taken or omitted by it or them, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The appointment of Wells Fargo as Administrative Agent hereunder shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, Wells Fargo in its individual capacity.

(b) The term “agent” is used herein in reference to the Administrative Agent merely as a matter of custom. It is intended to reflect only an administrative relationship between the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties, in each case as independent contracting parties. However, the obligations of the Administrative Agent shall be limited to those expressly set forth herein. In no event shall the use of such term create or imply any fiduciary relationship or any other obligation arising under the general law of agency, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

-71-

Section 8.7

Administrative Agent and Affiliates.

The Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder in its individual capacity as any other Lender, and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers as fully as if the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

Section 8.8

Credit Investigation.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has made its own independent credit decision and investigation and taken such care on its own behalf as would have been the case had its Commitment been granted and the Advances made directly by such Lender to the Borrowers without the intervention of the Administrative Agent or any other Lender. Each Lender agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent makes no representations or warranties about the creditworthiness of the Company or any other Borrower or other party to this Agreement or with respect to the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of this Agreement, any Loan Document, or any other instrument or document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith.

Section 8.9

Resignation.

The Administrative Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Company and the Lenders. In the event of any resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall as promptly as practicable appoint a Lender as a successor Administrative Agent; provided, however, that so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time, no such successor Administrative Agent may be appointed without the prior written consent of the Company. If no such successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the resigning Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the resigning Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a Lender as a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon be entitled to receive from the prior Administrative Agent such documents of transfer and assignment as such successor Administrative Agent may reasonably request and the resigning Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any resignation pursuant to this Section, the provisions of this Section shall inure to the benefit of the retiring Administrative Agent as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Administrative Agent hereunder.

-72-

Section 8.10

Disclosure of Information.

The Lender Parties shall keep confidential (and cause their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives to keep confidential) all information, materials and documents furnished by the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders (the “Disclosed Information”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose Disclosed Information (a) to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender; (b) to any Affiliate of any Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, provided that such Affiliate has been informed of the confidential nature of such information; (c) to legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors to the Administrative Agent or such Lender; (d) to any regulatory body having jurisdiction over any Lender or the Administrative Agent (including in connection with a pledge or assignment permitted by Section 9.8(f)); (e) to the extent required by applicable laws and regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, or requested by any governmental agency or authority; (f) to the extent such Disclosed Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement, (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or such Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company or a Subsidiary, or (iii) was available to the Administrative Agent or such Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to the Administrative Agent or such Lender by the Company or a Subsidiary; (g) to the extent the Company or such Subsidiary shall have consented to such disclosure in writing; (h) to the extent reasonably deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the enforcement of the remedies of the Lender Parties provided under the Loan Documents; or (i) in connection with any potential assignment or participation in the interest granted hereunder, provided that any such potential assignee or participant shall have executed a confidentiality agreement imposing on such potential assignee or participant substantially the same obligations as are imposed on the Lender Parties under this Section 8.10.

Section 8.11

Titles.

The Persons identified on the title page as “Joint Book Runners”, “Joint Lead Arrangers”, and “Syndication Agent” shall have no right, power, obligation or liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document on account of such identification other than those applicable to such Persons in their capacity (if any) as Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any Person so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or omitting any action hereunder.

ARTICLE IX

Miscellaneous

Section 9.1

No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

No failure or delay on the part of the Lenders in exercising any right, power or remedy under the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any Lender’s acceptance of payments while any Default or Event of Default is outstanding operate as a waiver of such Default or Event of Default, or any right, power or remedy under the Loan Documents; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy under the Loan Documents. The remedies provided in the Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

-73-

Section 9.2

Designation of Designated Subsidiaries.

At any time and from time to time, the Company may designate any Eligible Subsidiary as a “Designated Subsidiary” by delivering to the Administrative Agent a Designation Letter, duly executed by the Company and such Eligible Subsidiary. Upon receipt of such Designation Letter by the Administrative Agent, and approval of the Administrative Agent if required to confirm that the applicable Subsidiary is an Eligible Subsidiary, such Eligible Subsidiary shall thereupon become a “Designated Subsidiary” for purposes of this Agreement and, as such, shall have all of the rights and obligations of a Borrower hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of each such designation by the Company and the identity of such Eligible Subsidiary. The Company’s designation of an Eligible Subsidiary as such shall be irrevocable, and no Subsidiary shall cease to be a Designated Subsidiary without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders (and, in any event, no Eligible Subsidiary shall cease to be a Designated Subsidiary unless all of its non-contingent Obligations have been paid in full). Upon request of any Lender, each Designated Subsidiary shall execute any Revolving Note delivered hereunder, but the failure of the Borrowers other than the Company to execute such Revolving Note shall not diminish the liability of any Borrower with respect to the indebtedness evidenced thereby.

Section 9.3

Amendments, Etc.

No amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders), and any such waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Notwithstanding the foregoing:

The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

The Company also agrees to pay and reimburse the Administrative Agent for all of its out-of-pocket and allocated costs incurred in connection with each audit or examination conducted by the Administrative Agent, its employees or agents, which audits and examinations shall be for the sole benefit of the Lender Parties.

Section 9.6

Indemnification by Borrowers.

Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Lender Party and each officer, director, employee and agent thereof (herein individually each called an “Indemnitee” and collectively called the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and liabilities (all of the foregoing being herein called the “Indemnified Liabilities”) incurred by an Indemnitee (a) in connection with or arising out of 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 use of the proceeds of any Advance or Letter of Credit hereunder or (b) in connection with or arising out of any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Substances on or from any property owned or operated by the Company or any Subsidiary or any claim that any Environmental Law has been breached with respect to any activity or property of the Company or any Subsidiary except for any portion of such losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities incurred solely as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable Indemnitee. If and to the extent that the foregoing indemnity may be unenforceable for any reason, each Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. All obligations provided for in this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnitee in respect of any Indemnified Liabilities arising as a result of the Issuing Bank’s failure to pay any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. This Section 9.6 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

Section 9.8

Binding Effect, Assignment and Participations.

(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 no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Indemnities and Affiliates 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. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Advances at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i)

Minimum Amounts.

(1) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments and the Advances at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(2) in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(1) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitments (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitments are not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Advances 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 or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, or in the case of Term Loans, $1,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the Company shall be deemed to have given its consent five (5) Business Days after the date written notice thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by the Company prior to such fifth (5th) Business Day;

-78-

(ii)

Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Advances or the Commitments assigned (it being understood that assignments of Term Loans on the one hand and Revolving Advances and Revolving Commitments on the other may be made independently and non-ratably);

(iii)

Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(2) of this Section and, in addition:

(1) the consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) shall be required unless (A) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (B) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

(2) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and

(3) the consents of the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lenders (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding) or for any assignment of Swing Line Advances.

(iv)

Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 for each assignment and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. On or prior to the effective date of each assignment, the assigning Lender shall surrender any outstanding Notes held by it all or a portion of which are being assigned. Any Notes surrendered by the assigning Lender shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Company marked “cancelled”. No such surrender or cancellation shall reduce, affect or impair the obligation of the Borrowers assigned to the assignee nor limit the Borrowers’ obligation to provide a new Note or Notes to the assignee pursuant to Section 2.1.

-79-

(v)

No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(vi)

No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement 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 (other than obligations under Sections 2.17(e) and (h)) (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 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 9.5 and 9.6 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph 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 (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in Charlotte, North Carolina or such other office as may be determined by the Administrative Agent, a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and each Lender agreement (delivered pursuant to Section 2.22) delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any Lender (but only to the extent of entries in the Register that are applicable to such Lender), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, in accordance with applicable law, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Advances owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Company, the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, Swing Line Lender, 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.

-80-

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 to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; 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 or modification described in Section 9.3 that directly affects such Participant and could not be affected by a vote of the Required Lenders. Subject to paragraph (e) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of (and shall have the related obligations under) Sections 2.16, 2.17 and 2.18 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 9.15 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 8.4 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and each Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.17 or 2.18 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant (except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation), unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(g) shall be delivered to the participating 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 to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or central bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

-81-

Governing Law.

The Loan Documents shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Each party irrevocably (a) agrees that any suit, action or other legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be brought in a court of record in New York County in the State of New York or in the courts of the United States located in such State, (b) consents to the jurisdiction of each such court in any suit, action or proceeding, (c) waives any objection which it may have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such courts and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum, and (d) agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, 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.

Section 9.12

Waiver of Jury Trial.

THE BORROWERS AND THE LENDER PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES OR THE RELATIONSHIPS ESTABLISHED HEREUNDER.

Section 9.13

Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.

(a) Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including the Fee Letters), 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. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. Except as provided in Section 3.1, 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 that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.

-82-

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

Section 9.14

Recalculation of Covenants Following Accounting Practices Change.

The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any Accounting Practices Change promptly upon becoming aware of the same. Promptly following such notice, the Company and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith in order to effect any adjustments to the Financial Covenants and other provisions hereof necessary to reflect the effects of such Accounting Practices Change.

Section 9.15

Right of Set Off.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender, the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender agree to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Section 9.16

Headings.

Article and Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

-83-

Section 9.17

Non-Liability of Lenders.

The relationship between the Borrowers on the one hand and the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Administrative Agent, any Lender nor the Issuing Bank shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrowers. Neither the Administrative Agent, any Lender nor the Issuing Bank undertakes any responsibility to any Borrower to review or inform the Borrowers of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrowers’ business or operations. The Borrowers agree that neither the Administrative Agent, any Lender nor the Issuing Bank shall have liability to the Borrowers (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by any Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from (a) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought or (b) the Issuing Bank’s failure to pay any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. Neither the Administrative Agent, any Lender nor the Issuing Bank shall have any liability with respect to, and each Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue for, any special, indirect or consequential damages suffered by any Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

Section 9.18

Customer Identification – USA Patriot Act Notice.

The Administrative Agent hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56, signed into law October 26, 2001) (the “Patriot Act”), and the Administrative Agent’s policies and practices, each Lender is required to obtain, verify and record certain information and documentation that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and such other information that will allow each Lender to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act and all applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations.

Section 9.19

Defaulting Lender Cure

If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Swing Line Lender and Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable facility (without giving effect to Section 2.7(j)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

-84-

Section 9.20

Designated Lenders

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender at its option may make any Credit Extension or otherwise perform its obligations hereunder through any Lending Office (each, a “Designated Lender”); provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of such Borrower to repay any Credit Extension in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any Designated Lender shall be considered a Lender; provided that such provisions that would be applicable with respect to Credit Extensions actually provided by such Affiliate or branch of such Lender shall apply to such Affiliate or branch of such Lender to the same extent as such Lender.

Section 9.21

Existing Credit Agreement Matters.

The Lenders hereunder which are “Lenders” under the Existing Credit Agreement (which Lenders constitute the “Required Lenders” under the Existing Credit Agreement) hereby waive the requirement set forth in Section 2.11 of the Existing Credit Agreement that notice of prepayments of certain “Advances” be given a specified number of “Business Days’” in advance. The Borrower and such Lenders agree that upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, all such notice requirements shall be deemed satisfied.

Section 9.22

Amendment and Restatement of Existing Credit Agreement.

Upon the Effective Date, the Existing Credit Agreement, shall be amended and restated by this Agreement; provided however, that the obligation to repay the loans and advances arising under the Existing Credit Agreement shall continue in full force and effect but shall now be governed by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
