CREDIT AGREEMENT

THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is entered into as of October 28, 2016, by and among the lenders identified on the signature pages hereof (each of such lenders, together with their respective successors and permitted assigns, are referred to hereinafter as a “Lender”, as that term is hereinafter further defined), WILMINGTON TRUST, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, “Agent”), JACK COOPER HOLDINGS CORP., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”).

RECITAL

In consideration of the mutual conditions and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Lenders, Agent, and Borrower hereby agrees as follows:

1.                                      DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION.

1.1                               Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings specified therefor on Schedule 1.1.

1.2                               Accounting Terms. All accounting terms not specifically defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP as in effect as of June 18, 2013; provided, however, that if Borrower notifies Agent that Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to receive the benefit of any Accounting Change that has occurred or is occurring after June 18, 2013 or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if Agent notifies Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such Accounting Change or in the application thereof, then Agent and Borrower agree that they will negotiate in good faith amendments to the provisions of this Agreement that are directly affected by such Accounting Change with the intent of having the respective positions of the Lenders and Borrower after such Accounting Change conform as nearly as possible to their respective positions as of the date of this Agreement and, until any such amendments have been agreed upon, the provisions in this Agreement shall be calculated as if no such Accounting Change had occurred. When used herein, the term “financial statements” shall include the notes and schedules thereto.

1.3                               Code. Any terms used in this Agreement that are defined in the Code shall be construed and defined as set forth in the Code unless otherwise defined herein; provided, however, that to the extent that the Code is used to define any term herein and such term is defined differently in different Articles of the Code, the definition of such term contained in Article 9 of the Code shall govern.

1.4                               Construction. Unless the context of this Agreement or any other Loan Document clearly requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to the singular include the plural, the terms “includes” and “including” are not limiting and shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation,” and the term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and similar terms in this Agreement or any other Loan

Document refer to this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the case may be, as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the case may be. Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein are to this Agreement unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein). The words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts, and contract rights. Any reference herein or in any other Loan Document to the satisfaction, repayment, or payment in full of the Obligations shall mean (a) the payment or repayment in full in immediately available funds of (i) the principal amount of, and interest accrued and unpaid with respect to, all outstanding Loans, (ii) all Lender Group Expenses that have accrued and are unpaid regardless of whether demand has been made therefor, (iii) all fees or charges that have accrued hereunder or under any other Loan Document and are unpaid and (b) the receipt by Agent of cash collateral in order to secure any other contingent Obligations for which a claim or demand for payment has been made on or prior to such time or in respect of matters or circumstances known to Agent or a Lender at such time that are reasonably expected to result in any loss, cost, damage, or expense (including reasonable and documented and itemized attorneys’ fees and out-of-pocket legal expenses of outside counsel), such cash collateral to be in such amount as Agent reasonably determines is appropriate to secure such contingent Obligations. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and permitted assigns. Any requirement of a writing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record.

1.5                               Schedules and Exhibits. All of the schedules and exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed incorporated herein by reference.

1.6                               Timing of Payment or Performance.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, when the payment of any obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty or obligation under any Loan Document is stated to be due or performance required on a day which is not a Business Day, the date of such payment or performance shall extend to the immediately succeeding Business Day.

2.                                      LOANS AND TERMS OF PAYMENT.

2.1                               Term Loans.

(a)                                 Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Lenders severally, not jointly or jointly and severally, agree to make term loans to Borrower (the “Loans”) on the Closing Date in an amount for each Lender equal to the amount of the Commitment of such Lender. Borrower agrees to pay Agent, the fees set forth in the Fee Letter.

2

(b)                                 Amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.1 and repaid may not be reborrowed. The outstanding principal amount of the Loan, together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon, shall constitute Obligations and shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which they are declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

2.2                               [Reserved].

2.3                               Borrowing Procedures and Settlements.

(a)                                 Procedure for Borrowing. An Authorized Person of Borrower shall deliver to Agent a written request no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Closing Date specifying (i) the amount of the Borrowing, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day (iii) the location and number of the account to which funds are to be disbursed, and certifying the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.1 have been satisfied (other than the ones duly waived by the Lenders).

(b)                                 Making of Loans. Upon receipt of the borrowing request described in Section 2.3(a), Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof.  Not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time (or, if later, promptly following the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.1), on the Closing Date, Lender shall make available to Borrower an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Loan to be made by such Lender.

(c)                                  Notation. Agent, as a non-fiduciary agent for Borrower, shall maintain a register at its office set forth in Section 11 a copy of each assignment and assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the principal amounts showing the principal amount of the Loan owing to each Lender, and the interests therein of each Lender, from time to time (the “Register”) and the Register shall, absent manifest error, conclusively be presumed to be correct and accurate, and Borrower, Agent, and each Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any assignment of any Loan shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower, Agent and any Lender (solely with respect to its Loans), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice to the Agent. This Section 2.3(c) shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meanings of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the IRC and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

2.4                               Payments; Reductions of Commitments; Prepayments.

(a)                                 Payments by Borrower.

(i)                                     Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower shall be made to Agent for the account of the Lender Group and shall be made in immediately available funds, no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date specified herein. Any payment received by Agent later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to have been received (unless Agent, in its sole discretion, elects to credit it on the date received) on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue until such following Business Day.

(ii)                                  Unless Agent receives notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that Borrower will not make such payment in full as and when required, Agent may assume that Borrower has made (or will make) such payment in full to Agent on such date in immediately available funds and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent Borrower does not make such payment in full to Agent on the date when due, each Lender severally shall repay to Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the interest rate then applicable to the Loans for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

(b)                                 Apportionment and Application.

(i)                                     So long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, all principal and interest payments received by Agent shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders (according to the unpaid principal balance of the Obligations to which such payments relate held by each Lender) and all payments of fees and expenses received by Agent shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders having a Pro Rata Share of the type of Obligation to which a particular fee or expense relates. All payments to be made hereunder by Borrower shall be remitted to Agent and all (subject to Section 2.4(b)(iv)) such payments, and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent, shall be applied, so long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, to reduce the balance of the Loans outstanding and, thereafter, to Borrower or such other Person entitled thereto under applicable law.

4

(ii)                                  At any time that an Application Event has occurred and is continuing, all payments remitted to Agent and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent shall be applied as follows:

(A)                               first, to pay any Lender Group Expenses (including cost or expense reimbursements) or indemnities then due to Agent under the Loan Documents, until paid in full,

(B)                               second, to pay any fees or premiums (if any) then due to Agent under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(C)                               third, ratably, to pay any Lender Group Expenses (including cost or expense reimbursements) or indemnities then due to any of the Lenders under the Loan Documents, until paid in full,

(D)                               fourth, ratably, to pay any fees or premiums (including any Prepayment Premium) then due to any of the Lenders under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(E)                                fifth, ratably, to pay interest accrued in respect of the Loans until paid in full,

(F)                                 sixth, ratably to pay the principal of all Loans until paid in full,

(G)                               seventh, to pay any other Obligations, and

(H)                              eighth, to Borrower or such other Person entitled thereto under applicable law.

(iii)                               Agent promptly shall distribute to each Lender, pursuant to the applicable wire instructions received from each Lender in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive.

(iv)                              In each instance, so long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, Section 2.4(b)(i) shall not apply to any payment made by Borrower to Agent and specified by Borrower to be for the payment of specific Obligations then due and payable (or prepayable) under any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(v)                                 For purposes of Section 2.4(b)(ii), “paid in full” of a type of Obligation means payment in cash or immediately available funds of all amounts owing on account of such type of Obligation, including interest accrued after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding (or which would have accrued but for the commencement of such Insolvency Proceeding), default interest, interest on interest, and expense reimbursements, irrespective of

5

whether any of the foregoing would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in part in any Insolvency Proceeding.

(vi)                              In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.4 and any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, then the terms and provisions of this Section 2.4 shall control and govern.

(c)                                  Reduction of Commitments. The Commitments shall automatically terminate upon the making of the Loans on the Closing Date.

(d)                                 Prepayments.

(i)                                     Optional Prepayments. Borrower may voluntarily prepay the Loans at any time in whole or in part upon two (2) Business Days prior written notice; provided that notice may be conditioned on an event and if such event does not occur no prepayment shall be required; provided further that such prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest thereon and: (1) in the case of any prepayments made with the proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings made after the Closing Date but on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, a prepayment premium of 5.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans so prepaid; and (2) in the case of any other prepayments pursuant to this clause (d)(i), the Applicable Premium.

(ii)                                  Mandatory Offers of Prepayments.

(1)                                 Change of Control.  Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, Borrower shall make an Offer to Prepay, and each Lender will have the right to require Borrower to prepay all or any part of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans owing to such Lender, together with a prepayment premium of 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans so prepaid and any accrued and unpaid interest to but not including the Prepayment Date pursuant to an Offer to Prepay. Subject to Section 2.4(e)(ii) below, on the Prepayment Date, Borrower shall, to the extent lawful, (A) prepay the Loans (or the portion thereof) of each Lender that has accepted the Offer for Prepayment, together with the applicable prepayment premium set forth above and any accrued and unpaid interest of each Lender that has accepted the Offer for Prepayment, and (B) otherwise

6

comply with Section 2.4(e). An Offer to Prepay shall be made no earlier than 10 Business Days in advance of a Change of Control and no later than the date of such Change of Control and, if made before the occurrence of the Change of Control, may be conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making the Offer to Prepay.

(2)                                 Asset Sales.  Subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, subject to Section 3.9 and Section 4.10 of the Notes Indenture (as in effect on the date hereof), Section 2.4 and Section 2.5 of the Existing ABL Credit Agreement (as in effect on the date hereof) and Section 2.4 of the MSD Term Loan Credit Agreement (as in effect on the date hereof), and subject to each of the terms and conditions of this Section 2.4(d)(ii)(2), on the date of receipt by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale, Borrower shall make an Offer to Prepay and each Lender will have the right to require Borrower to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans owing to such Lender together with any accrued and unpaid interest to but not including the Prepayment Date pursuant to an Offer to Prepay, in an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds received from such Asset Sale, in each case without any premium or penalty. Subject to Section 2.4(e)(ii) below, on the Prepayment Date, Borrower shall, to the extent lawful, (A) prepay the Loans (or the portion thereof), together with any accrued and unpaid interest of each Lender that has accepted the Offer for Prepayment, in each case without any premium or penalty; and (B) otherwise comply with Section 2.4(e); provided, Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, may, within 365 days after receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, apply such Net Cash Proceeds to an Investment permitted under this Agreement in (a) any one or more businesses (provided that such Investment in any business is in the form of either (I) the acquisition of capital Stock and results in Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Subsidiary of Borrower or (II) all or substantially all of the assets the relevant business), (b) properties, (c) capital expenditures or (d) other assets that, in each of (a), (b), (c) and (d), replace the businesses, properties and assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale or are used or useful in the Permitted Business (clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) together, the “Additional Assets”); provided further that to

7

the extent that the assets that were subject to the Asset Sale constituted ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the ABL-Notes Intercreditor Agreement), such Additional Assets shall also constitute ABL Priority Collateral (and Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, shall promptly take such action (if any) as may be required to cause that portion of such Investment constituting ABL Priority Collateral to be added to the ABL Priority Collateral securing the Obligations). For purposes of the foregoing and determining whether assets subject to an Asset Sale constitute ABL Priority Collateral, the sale or other disposition of Capital Interests of a Person shall be treated as a sale or other disposition of assets of such Person and assets sold shall be allocated between Notes Priority Collateral and ABL Priority Collateral (as each such term is defined in the ABL-Notes Intercreditor Agreement) in accordance with Section 3.5(c) of the ABL-Notes Intercreditor Agreement, as if the allocation therein would apply to such Asset Sale.

Pursuant to the first proviso of this subclause (2), a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Cash Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Cash Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such commitment; provided, that if such commitment is later terminated or cancelled prior to the application of such Net Cash Proceeds, then such Net Cash Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds.

Any Net Cash Proceeds from the Asset Sales covered by this subclause (2) that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth above will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds” and within 15 Business Days after the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10,000,000, Borrower shall make an Offer to Prepay an amount equal to the Excess Proceeds. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Loans that are accepted for prepayment pursuant to an Offer to Prepay is less than the Excess Proceeds, Borrower may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.  After Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has applied the Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale of

8

any Collateral as provided in, and within the time periods required by, this clause (2), Borrower may use the balance of such Net Cash Proceeds, if any, from such Asset Sale of Collateral for any purpose not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement; provided that pending the final application of any Net Cash Proceeds pursuant to this clause (2), the Borrower may apply such Net Cash Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest such Net Cash Proceeds in any manner not prohibited in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, subject to Section 3.9 and Section 4.10 of the Notes Indenture (as in effect on the date hereof), Section 2.4 and Section 2.5 of the Existing ABL Credit Agreement (as in effect on the date hereof) and Section 2.4 of the MSD Term Loan Credit Agreement (as in effect on the date hereof), and subject to each of the terms and conditions of this Section 2.4(d)(ii)(2):

(I) any such mandatory offers of prepayments under this Section 2.4(d)(ii)(2) shall not be required, and shall be deemed reduced by an equivalent amount, to the extent that a corresponding prepayment or payment (without the requirement for a corresponding commitment reduction in the case of a revolving facility) is made under any ABL Credit Agreement (or any Refinancing Indebtedness thereof as permitted under clause (l) of “Permitted Indebtedness” definition) or the MSD Term Loan Credit Agreement (or any Refinancing Indebtedness thereof as permitted under clause (l) of “Permitted Indebtedness” definition) or any other permitted Indebtedness of the Borrower or a Guarantor that is secured by a Lien on the ABL Priority Collateral that is senior to the Lien on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the Obligations;

(II) any such mandatory offers of prepayments under this Section 2.4(d)(ii)(2) shall be deemed reduced by a ratable amount of the corresponding prepayment or payment (or similar equivalent thereof) as may be required under Specified Pari Passu Ratio Debt (or any Refinancing Indebtedness thereof) or any other permitted Indebtedness of the Borrower or a Guarantor that is secured by a Lien on the ABL Priority Collateral that is pari passu with the Lien on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the Obligations,

9

(III) any such mandatory offers of prepayments under this Section 2.4(d)(ii)(2) in connection with the Asset Sale of any Notes Priority Collateral shall not be required, and shall be deemed reduced by an equivalent amount of the corresponding prepayment or payment (or similar equivalent thereof) as may be required under the Notes Indenture (or any Refinancing Indebtedness thereof), the relevant indentures for the Additional Notes (or any Refinancing Indebtedness thereof) or any other any other permitted Indebtedness of the Borrower or a Guarantor that is secured by a Lien on the Notes Priority Collateral that is senior to the Lien on the Notes Priority Collateral securing the Obligations; and

(IV) any such mandatory offers of prepayments under this Section 2.4(d)(ii)(2) shall be deemed reduced by a ratable amount of the corresponding prepayment or payment (or similar equivalent thereof) as may be required under any other any other permitted Indebtedness of the Borrower or a Guarantor that is secured by a Lien on the Notes Priority Collateral that is pari passu with the Lien on the Notes Priority Collateral securing the Obligations.

(3)                                 Indebtedness.  On the date of the incurrence of any Indebtedness not permitted under this Agreement, Borrower shall make an Offer to Prepay and each Lender will have the right to require Borrower to prepay all or any part of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans owing to such Lender, together with the Applicable Premium and any accrued and unpaid interest to but not including the Prepayment Date pursuant to an Offer to Prepay. Subject to Section 2.4(e)(ii) below, on the Prepayment Date, Borrower shall, to the extent lawful, (A) prepay the Loans (or the portion thereof), together with the Applicable Premium and any accrued and unpaid interest of each Lender that has accepted the Offer for Prepayment, and (B) otherwise comply with Section 2.4(e). The provisions of this Section do not constitute consent to the incurrence of any Indebtedness by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

(iii)                               Prepayment Premiums.

(1)                                 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if (x) all or any portion of the Loans is paid or prepaid (or is required to be paid or prepaid) pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(i), (d)(ii)(1) or (d)(ii)(3), (x) the Obligations are

10

accelerated (whether by operation of law or otherwise), including as a result of the commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding or any Event of Default under Section 8.4 or 8.5, (y) there is a satisfaction, release, payment, restructuring, reorganization, replacement, reinstatement, defeasance or compromise of any of the Obligations in any Insolvency Proceeding, foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding or otherwise) or deed in lieu of foreclosure or the making of a distribution of any kind in any Insolvency Proceeding to Agent, for the account of the Lenders in full or partial satisfaction of the Obligations, or (z) there is a termination of this Agreement for any reason other than repayment in full on the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date (the occurrence of any of the events set forth in the foregoing clauses (w) through (z), a “Premium Event”), then Agent shall be paid, for the benefit of Lenders holding such Loans as an inducement for making the Loans (and not as a penalty) an amount equal to the Applicable Premium or, if such prepayment is made in accordance with Section 2.4(d)(i)(1), the prepayment premium set forth in Section 2.4(d)(i)(1), or if such prepayment is made in accordance with Section 2.4(d)(ii)(1), the prepayment premium set forth in Section 2.4(d)(ii)(1) (as applicable, the “Prepayment Premium”), which Prepayment Premium shall be fully earned, and due and payable, on the date of such payment or prepayment, or on the date such payment or prepayment is required to be made, as applicable, and non-refundable when made.  If the Loans are accelerated for any reason under this Agreement pursuant to the terms herein, the Prepayment Premium applicable thereto shall be calculated as if the date of acceleration of such Loans was the date of prepayment of such Loans. The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that the Prepayment Premium is not intended to act as a penalty or to punish the Loan Parties for any such repayment or prepayment.

(2)                                 Any prepayment or repayment, whether voluntary or involuntary, of the Loans upon the occurrence of any Premium Event shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the principal amount prepaid or repaid, together with the Prepayment Premium, as applicable.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing Section 2.4(d)(iii)(1), and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any Loan Document, it is understood and agreed that if the Obligations are accelerated as a result of the occurrence and continuance of

11

any Event of Default (including by operation of law or otherwise), the Prepayment Premium, if any, determined as of the date of acceleration, will also be due and payable and will be treated and deemed as though the applicable Loans were prepaid as of such date and shall constitute part of the Obligations for all purposes herein. The Prepayment Premium, if any, shall also be payable in the event the Obligations (and/or this Agreement) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other similar means.  THE LOAN PARTIES EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREPAYMENT PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION.  The Loan Parties expressly agree that (i) the Prepayment Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel, (ii) the Prepayment Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made, (iii) there has been a course of conduct between Lenders and the Loan Parties giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Prepayment Premium, (iv) the Loan Parties shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this Section 2.4(d), (v) their agreement to pay the Prepayment Premium is a material inducement to the Lenders to make the Loans, and (vi) the Prepayment Premium represents a good faith, reasonable estimate and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Lenders and that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual amount of damages to the Lenders or profits lost by the Lenders as a result of such Premium Event.

(e)                                  Offer to Prepay.

(i)                                     In the event that Borrower shall be required to commence an Offer to Prepay pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(ii), Borrower shall follow the procedures specified below:

(1)                                 Unless otherwise required by applicable law, an Offer to Prepay shall specify an Expiration Date of the Offer to Prepay, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, not less than 10 days or more than 30 days after the date of mailing of such Offer,

12

and a Prepayment Date for prepayment of the Loans shall be within 60 days after the Expiration Date. On the Prepayment Date, Borrower shall prepay the aggregate principal amount of Loans required to be prepaid pursuant to Section 2.4(d) hereof (the “Offer Amount”), or if less than the Offer Amount has been accepted for prepayment, all Loans accepted for prepayment in response to the Offer to Prepay.

(2)                                 On the Prepayment Date, Borrower shall, to the extent lawful, prepay the Loans accepted for prepayment, together with any accrued and unpaid interest and, if applicable, any prepayment premium required (including the Applicable Premium).

(ii)                                  Any Offer to Prepay may, at Borrower’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent (including, in the case of an Offer to Prepay made under Section 2.4(d)(ii)(1) or Section 2.4(d)(ii)(3), the consummation of such Change of Control or incurrence of Indebtedness).  If prepayment is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such Offer to Prepay shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in Borrower’s discretion, the Prepayment Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such prepayment may not occur and such Offer to Prepay may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the stated Prepayment Date, or by the Prepayment Date as so delayed.

2.5                               Promise to Pay. Borrower promises to pay the Obligations (including principal, interest, fees, costs, and expenses) in full on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which the Obligations become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other applicable Loan Document.  Borrower shall not be required to make any prepayments on the principal of the Loans prior to the Maturity Date (or, if earlier, on the date on which the Obligations become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) except as otherwise expressly required pursuant Section 2.4(d) and upon acceleration of the Obligations in accordance with Section 9.1.

2.6                               Interest Rates: Rates, Payments, and Calculations.

(a)                                 Interest Rates. Except as provided in Section 2.6(c), all outstanding Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 10.5%.  The interest on the Loans shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with December 31, 2016 (each date upon which interest shall be so due and payable, an “Interest Payment Date”).

13

(b)                                 [Reserved].

(c)                                  Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, at the election of the Required Lenders, all outstanding Obligations shall bear interest on the Daily Balance thereof at a per annum rate equal to two percentage points above the per annum rate otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 2.6(a).

(d)                                 Payment of Fees. All costs, expenses, and Lender Group Expenses payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be due and payable promptly and in any event no later than 30 days following written demand therefor.  All fees and expenses payable under the Fee Letter shall be paid when due and payable thereunder.

(e)                                  Computation. All interest chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a 365 day year, in each case, for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which the interest or fees accrue.

(f)                                   Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate. In no event shall the interest rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. Borrower and the Lender Group, in executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided, however, that, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if said rate or rates of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto, as of the date of this Agreement, Borrower is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum as allowed by law, and payment received from Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of such excess.

2.7                               Crediting Payments. The receipt of any payment item by Agent shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment item is a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds made to an account designated by Agent from time to time (such account, “Agent’s Account”) or unless and until such payment item is honored when presented for payment. Should any payment item not be honored when presented for payment, then Borrower shall be deemed not to have made such payment and interest shall be calculated accordingly. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any payment item shall be deemed received by Agent only if it is received into Agent’s Account on a Business Day on or before 2:00 p.m. (New York time). If any payment item is received into Agent’s Account on a non-Business Day or after 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on a Business Day (unless Agent, in its sole discretion, elects to credit it on the date received), it shall be deemed to have been received by Agent as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day.

2.12                        Interest Payment Dates.  Interest on the Loans shall be payable on (x) the earliest of (i) the applicable Interest Payment Date, (ii) the date on which all or any portion of the Obligations are accelerated pursuant to the terms hereof, or (iii) the Maturity Date and (y) the date of any prepayment made pursuant to Sections 2.4(d)(i) and (ii).

2.13                        Funding Losses.

Borrower shall indemnify, defend, and hold Agent and the Lenders harmless against any loss, cost, or expense actually incurred by Agent or any Lender as a result of the payment of any principal of any Loan other than on the applicable Interest Payment Date (including as a result of an Event of Default) (such losses, costs, or expenses, “Funding Losses”). A certificate of Agent or a Lender delivered to Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that Agent or such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such amount to Agent or the Lender, as applicable, within 30 days of the date of its receipt of such certificate.

2.14                        Warrants.

For U.S. federal income and applicable state and local tax purposes, the Loan, together with the Warrants, shall be treated as an investment unit.  The Borrower and the Lenders shall use commercially reasonable efforts to agree for income tax purposes upon the fair market value of the Warrants acquired by the Lenders; provided, however, that the Borrower and the Lenders agree that such value shall not exceed $20 per Warrant; provided further, however, if the Borrower and Lenders are not able to agree on the fair market value of the Warrants, the Lenders shall not be bound by the Borrower’s determination of such fair market value and may take a different position pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1273-2(h)(2).  Each of the Borrower and the Lenders agree (i) to treat the Loan as a debt instrument, and not as a “contingent payment debt instrument,” for U.S. federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes, and (ii) to the extent the Loan is considered to have been issued with original issue discount (including as a result of any significant modification of the Loan that results in any original issue discount), that Borrower will provide any information reasonably requested from time to time by any Lender regarding the original issue discount (if any) associated with the Loan for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  To the extent the Borrower and the Lenders agree on the fair market value of the Warrants, each of Borrower and the Lenders agree to file tax returns consistent with such valuation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for all purposes (except for the purpose of this Section 2.14), each Lender shall be treated as having loaned the full amount of its pro rata portion of the principal amount of the Loan.

5.4                               Maintenance of Properties. Maintain and preserve all of its assets that are necessary in the proper conduct of its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear, tear, casualty and condemnation and Asset Sales and other dispositions that do not constitute Asset Sales excepted and except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change.

5.5                               Taxes. Cause all Taxes imposed, levied, or assessed against any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective assets or in respect of any of its income, businesses, or franchises to be paid in full, before delinquency or before the expiration of any extension period, except (i) to the extent that the validity of such assessment or tax shall be the subject of a Permitted Protest and so long as, in the case of a Tax that has or may become a Lien against any of the Collateral, such contest proceedings conclusively operate to stay the sale of any portion of the Collateral to satisfy such Tax or (ii) with respect to such Taxes that do not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate at any one time.

5.6                               Insurance. At Borrower’s expense, maintain insurance respecting each of the Loan Parties’ and their Subsidiaries’ assets wherever located, covering loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, and all other hazards and risks as ordinarily are insured against by other Persons engaged in the same or similar businesses.

If Borrower fails to maintain such insurance, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, after reasonable consultation with Borrower, Agent may arrange for such insurance, but at Borrower’s expense and without any responsibility on Agent’s part for obtaining the insurance, the solvency of the insurance companies, the adequacy of the coverage, or the collection of claims. Borrower shall give Agent prompt notice of any loss exceeding $1,000,000 covered by its casualty or business interruption insurance. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, Agent shall have the first right to file claims under any property and general liability insurance policies in respect of the Collateral, to receive, receipt and give acquittance for any payments that may be payable thereunder, and to execute any and all endorsements, receipts, releases, assignments, reassignments or other documents that may be necessary to effect the collection, compromise or settlement of any claims under any such insurance policies. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.6, the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries shall be permitted to self-insure on a basis consistent with commercially reasonable business practices. The parties hereby acknowledge that the Loan Parties’ self-insurance practices in effect on the date hereof are commercially reasonable business practices as of the date of this Agreement.

6.                                      NEGATIVE COVENANTS.

Borrower covenants and agrees that, until the payment in full of the Obligations (other than any unasserted contingent reimbursement and indemnification obligations), Borrower will not and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to do any of the following:

6.1                               Indebtedness. Incur any Indebtedness (including any Acquired Indebtedness), except for the following:

(a)                           Indebtedness of Borrower and any Guarantor if, immediately after giving effect to the Incurrence of such Indebtedness and the receipt and application of the proceeds therefrom, (i) the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of Borrower and its Subsidiaries would be greater than 2.0:1.0 and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time or as a consequence of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness; and

(b)                           Permitted Indebtedness.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.1, (x) the outstanding principal amount of any Indebtedness shall be counted only once such that (without limitation) any obligation arising under any Guarantees or obligations with respect to letters of credit supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the determination of such particular amount shall not be included and (y) except as provided above, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described above, including categories of Permitted Indebtedness and Section 6.1(a), Borrower, in its sole discretion, shall classify, and from time to time may reclassify, all or any portion of such item of Indebtedness and such Indebtedness need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision of this Section 6.1 but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 6.1. Notwithstanding anything to this Section 6.1 or in the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness”, no Indebtedness shall be Incurred under any ABL Credit Agreement or MSD Term Loan Agreement except pursuant to and in compliance with clause (a) or (n)(ii) of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness”,

33

changes in the amount outstanding due solely to the result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness or issuance of Capital Interests for purposes of this Section 6.1.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that may be outstanding pursuant to this Section 6.1 will not be deemed exceeded due to the results of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values. For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred.

None of Borrower and Guarantors will Incur any Indebtedness that pursuant to its terms is subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness unless such Indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations to at least the same extent; provided that Indebtedness will not be considered subordinate or junior in right of payment to any other Indebtedness solely by virtue of being unsecured or secured to a greater or lesser extent or with greater or lower priority.

6.2                               Liens.

(a)                                 Directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Liens of any kind on or with respect to the Collateral except Permitted Collateral Liens; and

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.2, (A) a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness need not be permitted solely by reference to one category (or portion thereof) of Permitted Liens described in the definition of “Permitted Liens” but may be permitted in part under any combination thereof and (B) in the event that a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories (or portions thereof) of Permitted Liens described in the definition of “Permitted Liens,” Borrower shall, in its sole discretion, divide, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify, or reclassify, such Lien securing such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies (based on circumstances existing at the time of such division, classification or reclassification) with this Section 6.2. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6.2 or the definitions of “Permitted Collateral Liens” or “Permitted Liens”, no Liens shall secure the ABL Obligations, the MSD Term Loan Obligations, the Notes Obligations, any Additional Notes, any Specified Pari Passu Ratio Debt, any Junior Debt or any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof except pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of “Permitted Collateral Liens”.

34

With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness.  The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common equity of Borrower or any direct or indirect payment of Borrower, the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of additional shares of preferred stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness.

If the Security Agreement or any other Loan Document that purports to create a Lien, shall, for any reason, fail or cease to create a valid and perfected and, subject to Permitted Collateral Liens and Permitted Liens which are permitted to be prior pursuant to the terms of any applicable Loan Document, first priority Lien on any material portion of the Collateral covered thereby, except (a) as a result of a disposition of the applicable

45

Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or (b) as the result of an action or failure to act on the part of Agent; or

8.11                        Loan Documents. The validity or enforceability of any material provisions of the Loan Document shall at any time for any reason (other than solely as the result of an action or failure to act on the part of Agent) be declared to be null and void, or a proceeding shall be commenced by a Loan Party or its Subsidiaries, or by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over a Loan Party or its Subsidiaries, seeking to establish the invalidity or unenforceability thereof, or a Loan Party or its Subsidiaries shall deny in writing that such Loan Party or its Subsidiaries has any liability or obligation purported to be created under any Loan Document (other than as a result of repayment in full of the Obligations).

9.                                      RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

9.1                               Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Agent may, and, at the instruction of the Required Lenders, shall (in each case under clauses (a) or (b) by written notice to Borrower), in addition to any other rights or remedies provided for hereunder or under any other Loan Document or by applicable law, do any one or more of the following:

(a)                           declare the principal of, and any and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect of the Loans, the Applicable Premium, and, if any, all other premiums thereon, and all other Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement or by any of the other Loan Documents immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become and be immediately due and payable and Borrower shall be obligated to repay all of such Obligations in full, together with the Applicable Premium, without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower; and

(b)                           exercise all other rights and remedies available to Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable law.

The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 8.4 or Section 8.5, in addition to the remedies set forth above, without any notice to Borrower or any other Person or any act by the Lender Group, any and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect of, the Loans and all other Obligations and all premiums thereon, including any Prepayment Premium, whether evidenced by this Agreement or by any of the other Loan Documents, shall automatically become and be immediately due and payable and Borrower shall automatically be obligated to repay all of such Obligations in full, together with the Prepayment Premium, without presentment, demand, protest, or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by Borrower. Borrower acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each Lender has the right to maintain its investment in the Loans free from repayment by Borrower (except to the extent of repayment and except as herein specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a premium by Borrower in accordance with Section 2.4(d) hereof in the event that the Loans are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances.

46

9.2                               Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Lender Group under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. The Lender Group shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by the Lender Group of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by the Lender Group of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by the Lender Group shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.

10.                               WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.

10.1                        Demand; Protest; etc. Except for notice requirements expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by the Lender Group on which Borrower may in any way be liable.

10.2                        The Lender Group’s Liability for Collateral. Borrower hereby agrees that: (a) so long as Agent complies with its obligations, if any, under the Code, the Lender Group shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in the value thereof, or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, and (b) all risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower.

10.3                        Indemnification. Borrower shall pay, indemnify, defend, and hold Agent-Related Persons, the Lender-Related Persons, and each Participant (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, and damages, and all documented (with itemized invoice) and reasonable fees and out-of-pocket disbursements of attorneys of outside counsel, experts, or consultants and all other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in connection with the enforcement of this indemnification (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time asserted against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them (a) in connection with or as a result of or related to the execution and delivery, (provided that Borrower shall not be liable for costs and expenses (including attorney fees) of any Lender (other than Solus Alternative Asset Management LP or any of its Affiliates) incurred in advising, structuring, drafting, reviewing or administering the Loan Documents), enforcement, performance, or administration (including any restructuring or workout with respect hereto) of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the monitoring of Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ compliance with the terms of the Loan Documents (provided, however, that the indemnification in this clause (a) shall not extend to (i) disputes solely between or among the Lenders that do not involve any acts or omissions of any Loan Party, or (ii) disputes solely between or among the Lenders and their respective Affiliates that do not involve any acts or omissions of any Loan Party; it being understood and agreed that the indemnification in this clause (a) shall extend to Agent (but not the Lenders) relative to disputes between or among the Agent on the one hand, and one or more Lenders, or one or more of their Affiliates, on the other hand, or (iii) any Taxes or any costs attributable to Taxes, which shall be governed by Section

47

16), (b) with respect to any actual or prospective investigation, litigation, or proceeding related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the making of any Loans hereunder, or the use of the proceeds of the Loans (irrespective of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), or any act, omission, event, or circumstance in any manner related thereto, and (c) in connection with or arising out of any presence or release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under, to or from any Properties or any Environmental Actions, Environmental Liabilities or Remedial Actions related in any way to any such Properties (each and all of the foregoing, the “Indemnified Liabilities”). The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower shall not have any obligation to any Indemnified Person under this Section 10.3 with respect to any Indemnified Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the repayment in full of the Obligations and, as to an Agent that has resigned or been removed, the resignation or removal of such Agent. If any Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other Indemnified Person with respect to an Indemnified Liability as to which Borrower was required to indemnify the Indemnified Person receiving such payment, the Indemnified Person making such payment is entitled to be indemnified and reimbursed by Borrower with respect thereto. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNIFIED PERSON WITH RESPECT TO INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON OR OF ANY OTHER PERSON.

(b)                           EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR THE RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE OR, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING,  ANY SUIT SEEKING ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT AGENT’S OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE AGENT ELECTS TO BRING SUCH ACTION OR WHERE SUCH COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND.

IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

(d)                           NO CLAIM MAY BE MADE BY ANY LOAN PARTY AGAINST AGENT, ANY LENDER, OR ANY AFFILIATE, DIRECTOR, OFFICER, EMPLOYEE, COUNSEL, REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT, OR ATTORNEY-IN-FACT OF ANY OF THEM FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OR LOSSES IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT OR ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY ACT, OMISSION, OR EVENT OCCURRING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, AND EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, RELEASES, AND AGREES NOT TO SUE UPON ANY CLAIM FOR SUCH DAMAGES, WHETHER OR NOT ACCRUED AND WHETHER OR NOT KNOWN OR SUSPECTED TO EXIST IN ITS FAVOR.

13.                               ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS; SUCCESSORS.

13.1                        Assignments and Participations.

(a)                           With the prior written consent of Agent, which consent of Agent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, and, in each case, consent shall not be required in connection with an assignment to a Person that is a Lender or an Affiliate (other than individuals) of a Lender, any Lender may assign and delegate to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee” (provided, however, that no Loan Party or Affiliate of a Loan Party shall be permitted to become an Assignee except pursuant to Section 13.1(i)) all or any portion of the Obligations and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, in a minimum amount (unless waived by Agent) of $1,000,000 (except such minimum amount shall not apply to (x) an assignment or delegation by any Lender to any other Lender or an Affiliate of any Lender or (y) a group of new Lenders, each of which is an Affiliate of each other or a Related Fund of such new Lender to the extent that the aggregate amount to be assigned to all such new Lenders is at least $1,000,000); provided, however, that Borrower and Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (i) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses, and related information with respect to the Assignee, have been given to Borrower and Agent by such Lender and the Assignee, (ii) such Lender and its Assignee have delivered to Borrower and Agent an Assignment and Acceptance and Agent has notified the assigning Lender of its receipt thereof in accordance with Section 13.1(b), and (iii)

51

unless waived by Agent in its sole discretion, the assigning Lender or Assignee has paid to Agent for Agent’s separate account a processing fee in the amount of $3,500.

(b)                           From and after the date that Agent notifies the assigning Lender (with a copy to Borrower) that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and, if applicable, payment of the required processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall be a “Lender” and shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (except with respect to Section 10.3) and be released from any future obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto and thereto); provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall release any assigning Lender from obligations that survive the termination of this Agreement, including such assigning Lender’s obligations under Section 15 and Section 17.9(a).

(c)                            By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of Borrower or the performance or observance by Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) such Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, (v) such Assignee appoints and authorizes Agent to take such actions and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to Agent, by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (vi) such Assignee agrees that it will perform all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d)                           Immediately upon Agent’s receipt of the required processing fee, if applicable, and delivery of notice to the assigning Lender pursuant to Section 13.1(b), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of Obligations owing to the Lenders arising therefrom.

52

(e)                            (i) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions, or other Persons (a “Participant”) participating interests in all or any portion of its Obligations and the other rights and interests of that Lender (the “Originating Lender”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the Originating Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Participant receiving the participating interest in the Obligations and the other rights and interests of the Originating Lender hereunder shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the Originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrower, Agent, and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Lender in connection with the Originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has the right to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent such amendment to, or consent or waiver with respect to this Agreement or of any other Loan Document would (A) extend the final maturity date of the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (B) reduce the interest rate applicable to the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (C) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or guaranties (except to the extent expressly provided herein or in any of the Loan Documents) supporting the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (D) postpone the payment of, or reduce the amount of, the interest or fees payable to such Participant through such Lender (other than a waiver of default interest), or (E) decreases the amount or postpones the due dates of scheduled principal repayments or prepayments or premiums payable to such Participant through such Lender, (v) no participation shall be sold to a natural person, (vi) no participation shall be sold to a Loan Party or an Affiliate of a Loan Party, and (vii) all amounts payable by Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, except that, if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement. The rights of any Participant only shall be derivative through the Originating Lender with whom such Participant participates and no Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any direct rights as to the other Lenders, Agent, Borrower, the Collections of Borrower or its Subsidiaries, the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Obligations. No Participant shall have the right to participate directly in the making of decisions by the Lenders among themselves.

(ii)                                  Each Participant shall be entitled to additional payments from Borrower pursuant to Section 16.1 as if such Participant were a Lender (and subject to the requirements and limitations imposed on such Lender with respect to such additional payments, including the requirements under Section 16.2 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 16.2 shall be delivered to the participating Lender and if additional amounts are required to be paid pursuant to Section 16, to the Borrower and the Agent)).. Each Originating Lender shall be entitled to continue receiving additional payments from Borrower pursuant to Section 16.1 with respect to any Loan notwithstanding the fact that such Originating

53

Lender has assigned a Participation in such Loan to a Participant if such Originating Lender is treated as the beneficial owner for U.S. income Tax purposes (and other applicable Tax purposes) of the portion of the Loan with respect to which a participation is made.

(iii)                               Each Originating Lender shall maintain, as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, a register (the “Participant Register”) as to the participations granted and transferred under Section 13.1(e)(i) containing the same information specified in Section 2.3(c) on the Register as if the each Participant were a Lender; provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such loan 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 such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, any participation made pursuant to Section 13.1(e)(i) shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Participant Register. This Section 13.1(e)(iii) shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meanings of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the IRC and any related regulations (and any successor provisions).

(f)                             In connection with any such assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation or any grant of a security interest in, or pledge of, its rights under and interest in this Agreement, a Lender may, subject to the provisions of Section 17.9, disclose all documents and information which it now or hereafter may have relating to Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses.

(g)                            Any other provision in this Agreement notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Bank or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.24, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

(h)                           [RESERVED]

(i)                               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender may assign all or any portion of its Loans hereunder to any Person who, after giving effect to such assignment, would be an Affiliated Lender;

(i)                                     the assigning Lender and the Affiliated Lender purchasing such Lender’s Loans, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to Agent an Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption in lieu of an Assignment and Assumption;

54

(ii)                                  Affiliated Lenders will not (A) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided solely to Lenders by the Agent or any other Lender, except to the extent made available to Borrower, (B) be permitted to attend (including by telephone) any meeting (or portion thereof) or discussions (or portion thereof) attended solely by Agent or any Lender or among Lenders to which the Loan Parties or their representatives (or any subset thereof) are not invited, (C) receive advice of counsel to Agent or any Lender or challenge Agent’s or any Lender’s attorney client privilege, or (D) be permitted to access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of Agent or the Lenders (it being understood and agreed that notices of borrowings, notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of the Loans of Affiliated Lenders required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Section 2 shall be delivered directly to such Affiliated Lender);

(iii)                               at the time of such assignment and after giving effect to such assignment, the Affiliated Lenders shall not, in the aggregate, hold Loans with an aggregate principal amount in excess of 30% of the principal amount of all Loans then outstanding;

(iv)                              (A) for purposes of any amendment, waiver or modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Affiliated Lender will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders consented to such matter, unless such amendment, waiver or modification requires the consent of all or all affected Lenders and affects such Affiliated Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) more than other Lenders in a disproportionately adverse manner, (B) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Insolvency Proceeding (a “Reorganization Plan”), each Affiliated Lender hereby agrees (x) not to vote on such Reorganization Plan, (y) if such Affiliated Lender does vote on such Reorganization Plan notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (x), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other debtor relief laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such Reorganization Plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other debtor relief laws) and (z) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the bankruptcy court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (y), in each case under this clause (iv)(B) unless such Reorganization Plan affects

55

such Affiliated Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) more than other Lenders in a disproportionately adverse manner, and (C) each Affiliated Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Affiliated Lender and in the name of such Affiliated Lender (solely in respect of Loans and not in respect of any other claim or status such Affiliated Lender may otherwise have), from time to time in Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that Agent may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this clause (iv), including to ensure that any vote of such Affiliated Lender on any Reorganization Plan is withdrawn or otherwise not counted; and

(v)                                 if such Affiliated Lender subsequently assigns the Loans acquired by it in accordance with this Section 13.1(i) such potential Lender shall have delivered to such Affiliated Lender written assurance that it is a sophisticated investor and is willing to proceed with such assignment.

Each Lender participating in any assignment to or from an Affiliated Lender acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such assignment, (1) the Affiliated Lender then may have, and later may come into possession of MNPI, (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on the Affiliated Lenders or any of its Subsidiaries, Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or Agent, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such assignment, (3) no Affiliated Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to make any representation that it is not in possession of MNPI, (4) none of Affiliated Lender or its Affiliates, Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or Agent shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against any Affiliated Lender or Affiliate thereof, Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and Agent, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the MNPI and (5) that the MNPI may not be available to Agent or the Lenders.  Each Affiliated Lender agrees to notify Agent promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) if it acquires any Person who is also a Lender, and each Lender agrees to notify the Agent promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) if it becomes an Affiliated Lender.

To the extent not previously disclosed to Agent, Borrower shall, upon reasonable request of Agent, report to Agent the amount of Loans held by Affiliated Lenders and the identity of such holders.

(j)                                    (i)  Notwithstanding anything in Section 14.1 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document or (iii) directed or required Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with

56

respect to or under any Loan Document (collectively, “Required Lender Consent Items”), an Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Affiliated Lenders, unless the result of such Required Lender Consent Item would deprive such Affiliated Lender of its pro rata share (compared to Lenders which are not Affiliated Lenders) of any payments to which such Affiliated Lender is entitled under the Loan Documents without such Affiliated Lender providing its consent or such Affiliated Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) is otherwise affected thereby in a disproportionately adverse manner compared to Lenders which are not Affiliated Lenders (in which case for purposes of such vote such Affiliated Lender shall have the same voting rights as other Lenders which are not Affiliated Lenders).

(ii)                                  Agent or any Lender shall not have any liability to an Affiliated Lender with respect to any duties or obligations or alleged duties or obligations of such Agent or any such Lender under the Loan Documents in the absence, with respect to any such Agent-Related Persons or Lender-Related Persons, or applicable, of the gross negligence or willful misconduct by Agent or such Lender and its Lender-Related Persons, as applicable (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment).

(iii)                               Additionally, Borrower and each Affiliated Lender hereby agree that and each Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption by an Affiliated Lender shall provide a confirmation that, if a case under the Bankruptcy Code is commenced against any Loan Party, Borrower shall seek, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to seek, (and each Affiliated Lender shall consent) to provide that the vote of any Affiliated Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) with respect to any plan of reorganization of such Loan Party shall not be counted except that such Affiliated Lender’s vote (in its capacity as a Lender) may be counted.

(k)                           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Affiliated Lender shall have any right to (i) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among Agent or any Lender or among Lenders (or any subset thereof) to which the Loan Parties or their representatives are not invited, (ii) receive any information or material prepared by Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among Agent and one or more Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to Borrower or its representatives (and in any case, other than the right to receive notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to this Agreement), (iii) make or bring (other than as a passive participant or recipient of its pro rata benefit of any claim) in its capacity as a Lender, against Agent (except with respect to any rights expressly retained hereunder) or (iv) receive advice of counsel to Agent or any other Lender or challenge Agent’s or any other Lender’s attorney client privilege.

13.2                        Successors. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties; provided, however, that Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder without the Lenders’ prior written

57

consent and any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void ab initio. No consent to assignment by the Lenders shall release Borrower from its Obligations. A Lender may assign this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and its rights and duties hereunder and thereunder pursuant to Section 13.1 and, except as expressly required pursuant to Section 13.1 and subject to such assignment being recorded in the Register, no consent or approval by Borrower is required in connection with any such assignment.

14.                               AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS.

14.1                        Amendments and Waivers.

(a)                           No amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than the Fee Letter), and no consent with respect to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders (or by Agent at the written request of the Required Lenders) and the Loan Parties that are party thereto and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective, but only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all of the Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby and all of the Loan Parties that are party thereto, do any of the following:

(ii)                                  postpone or delay any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees, or other amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document; it being understood and agreed that the waiver of (or amendment to the terms of) any mandatory prepayment or offer to prepay shall not constitute a postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest;

(iii)                               reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest on, any loan or other extension of credit hereunder, or reduce any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except in connection with the amendment or, waiver of applicability, of Section 2.6(c), only the written consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary);

(c)                                  [Reserved],

(d)                                 [Reserved],

14.2                        Replacement of Certain Lenders.

(a)                           If (i) any action to be taken by the Lender Group or Agent hereunder requires the consent, authorization, or agreement of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby and if such action has received the consent, authorization, or agreement of the Required Lenders but not of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby, or (ii) any Lender makes a claim for compensation under Section 16, then Borrower, upon at least 5 Business Days prior irrevocable notice, may permanently replace any Lender that failed to give its consent, authorization, or agreement (a “Holdout Lender”) or any Lender that made a claim for compensation (a “Tax Lender”) with one or more Replacement Lenders, and the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as

59

applicable, shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder. Such notice to replace the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given.

(b)                           Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, and each Replacement Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, being repaid in full its share of the outstanding Obligations (including (i) the Loans of such Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, and all interest, fees and other amounts that may be due in payable in respect thereof, and (ii) the Applicable Premium (whether or not then due hereunder)). If the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Acceptance prior to the effective date of such replacement, Agent may, but shall not be required to, execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance in the name or and on behalf of the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, and irrespective of whether Agent executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance, the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance. The replacement of any Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 13.1.

14.3                        No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or delay by Agent or any Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Agent or any Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Agent or any Lender on any occasion shall affect or diminish Agent’s and each Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement. Agent’s and each Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Agent or any Lender may have.

15.                               AGENT; THE LENDER GROUP.

15.1                        Appointment and Authorization of Agent. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints Wilmington Trust, National Association as its agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to execute and deliver each of the other Loan Documents on its behalf and to take such other action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent agrees to act as agent for and on behalf of the Lenders on the conditions contained in this Section 15. Any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, 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 Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with

60

reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only a representative relationship between independent contracting parties. Each Lender hereby further authorizes Agent to act as the secured party under each of the Loan Documents that create a Lien on any item of Collateral.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, or of any other provision of the Loan Documents that provides rights or powers to Agent, Lenders agree that Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise the following powers as long as this Agreement remains in effect: (a) maintain, in accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and related matters, (b) execute or file any and all financing or similar statements or notices, amendments, renewals, supplements, documents, instruments, proofs of claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to the Loan Documents, (c) exclusively receive, apply, and distribute the Collections of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as provided in the Loan Documents, (d) perform, exercise, and enforce any and all other rights and remedies of the Lender Group with respect to Borrower or its Subsidiaries, the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, or otherwise related to any of same as provided in the Loan Documents, and (e) incur and pay such Lender Group Expenses as Agent may deem necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions and powers pursuant to the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that an Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to, or not contemplated by, any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under the Bankruptcy Code or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Holdout Lender in violation of any debtor relief law.

15.2                        Delegation of Duties. Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

15.3                        Liability of Agent. None of Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any officer or director thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (ii) the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (iii) for any failure of Borrower or its Subsidiaries or

61

any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder, or (c) be liable for any action taken in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as may be contemplated by this Agreement). No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lenders to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements or covenants contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the books and records or properties of Borrower or its Subsidiaries.

15.4                        Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons (and Agent shall not have any duty to investigate the authenticity or accuracy thereof), and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrower or counsel to any Lender), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless Agent shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders as it deems appropriate and until such instructions are received, Agent shall act, or refrain from acting, as it deems advisable. If Agent so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

15.5                        Notice of Default or Event of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, fees, and expenses required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Lenders and, except with respect to Events of Default of which a responsible officer of the Agent has actual knowledge, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default, and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Agent promptly will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice or of any Event of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge. If any Lender obtains actual knowledge of any Event of Default, such Lender promptly shall notify the other Lenders and Agent in writing of such Event of Default. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for giving any notices to its Participants, if any. Subject to receiving adequate indemnification as contemplated by Section 15.4, Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9; provided, however, that unless and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable.

15.6                        Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrower and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender.

62

Each Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such due diligence, documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document. Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document that may come into the possession of any of Agent-Related Persons. Each Lender acknowledges that Agent does not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis (except to the extent, if any, that is expressly specified herein) to provide such Lender (with any credit or other information with respect to Borrower, its Affiliates or any of their respective business, legal, financial or other affairs, and irrespective of whether such information came into Agent’s or its Affiliates’ or representatives’ possession before or after the date on which such Lender became a party to this Agreement.

15.7                        Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, incur and pay Lender Group Expenses to the extent Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions, powers, and obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents, including court costs, attorneys fees and expenses, fees and expenses of financial accountants, advisors, consultants, and appraisers, costs of collection by outside collection agencies, auctioneer fees and expenses, and costs of security guards or insurance premiums paid to maintain the Collateral, whether or not Borrower is obligated to reimburse Agent or Lenders for such expenses pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. Agent is authorized and directed to deduct and retain sufficient amounts from the Collections of Borrower and its Subsidiaries received by Agent to reimburse Agent for such out-of-pocket costs and expenses prior to the distribution of any amounts to Lenders. In the event Agent is not reimbursed for such costs and expenses by Borrower or its Subsidiaries, each Lender hereby agrees that it is and shall be obligated to pay to Agent such Lender’s ratable share thereof. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the Lenders, on a ratable basis, shall indemnify and defend Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so to the extent required hereunder) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Agent upon demand for such Lender’s ratable share of any costs or out of pocket expenses (including attorneys, accountants, advisors, and consultants

63

fees and expenses) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Agent.

15.8                        [Reserved].

15.9                        Successor Agent. Agent may resign as Agent upon 20 days (10 days if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) prior written notice to the Lenders (unless such notice is waived by the Required Lenders) and Borrower (unless such notice is waived by Borrower). If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall be entitled to appoint a successor Agent for the Lenders, subject to the Borrower’s consent in the absence of a continuing Event of Default. If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders, a successor Agent. If Agent has materially breached or failed to perform any material provision of this Agreement or of applicable law, the Required Lenders may agree in writing to remove and replace Agent with a successor Agent from among the Lenders with (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned). In any such event, upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor Agent and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers, and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of Section 10.3 and this Section 15 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor Agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is 20 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation (or 10 days if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.  Borrower shall pay any such successor Agent any fees separately agreed to by Borrower and Agent.

15.10                 Lender Group in Individual Capacity. Any member of the Lender Group and its respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, provide bank products to, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Documents as though such Person were not a Lender or Agent hereunder without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group. The other members of the Lender Group acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, such Lender or Agent and its respective Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower or its Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders or Agent, and the Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver such Lender will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), such Lender or Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

64

15.11                 Collateral Matters.

(a)                           The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent to release any Lien on any Collateral (i) upon the payment and satisfaction in full by Borrower of all of the Obligations, (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if a release is required or desirable in connection therewith and, if such sale or disposition is considered an Asset Sale or a disposition otherwise permitted hereunder, and Borrower certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is permitted hereunder (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), (iii) constituting property in which Borrower or its Subsidiaries did not own any interest at the time Agent’s Lien was granted nor at any time thereafter, (iv) constituting property leased or licensed to a Borrower or its Subsidiaries under a lease or license that has expired or is terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, (v) in connection with a credit bid or purchase authorized under this Section 15.11, or (vi) in accordance with the requirements pursuant to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements. The Loan Parties and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, to (a) consent to, credit bid or purchase (either directly or indirectly through one or more entities) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) credit bid or purchase (either directly or indirectly through one or more entities) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale or other disposition thereof conducted under the provisions of the Code, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the Code, or (c) credit bid or purchase (either directly or indirectly through one or more entities) all or any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted or consented to by Agent in accordance with applicable law in any judicial action or proceeding or by the exercise of any legal or equitable remedy. In connection with any such credit bid or purchase, (i) the Obligations owed to the Lenders shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not impair or unduly delay the ability of Agent to credit bid or purchase at such sale or other disposition of the Collateral and, if such contingent or unliquidated claims cannot be estimated without impairing or unduly delaying the ability of Agent to credit bid at such sale or other disposition, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled to any interest in the Collateral that is the subject of such credit bid or purchase) and the Lenders whose Obligations are credit bid shall be entitled to receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) in the Collateral that is the subject of such credit bid or purchase (or in the Equity Interests of the any entities that are used to consummate such credit bid or purchase), and (ii) Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, may accept non-cash consideration, including debt and equity securities issued by any entities used to consummate such credit bid or purchase and in connection therewith Agent may reduce the Obligations owed to the Lenders (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) based upon the value of such non-cash consideration. Except as provided above, Agent will not execute and deliver a release of any Lien on any Collateral without the prior written authorization of (y) if the release is of all or substantially all of the Collateral, all of the Lenders, or (z) otherwise, the Required Lenders. Upon request by Agent or Borrower at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 15.11; provided, however, that (1) anything to the contrary contained in any of the

65

Loan Documents notwithstanding, Agent shall not be required to execute any document or take any action necessary to evidence such release on terms that, in Agent’s opinion, could expose Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly released) upon (or obligations of Borrower in respect of) any and all interests retained by Borrower, including, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. Each Lender further hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to subordinate any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Collateral Lien on such property if such Permitted Collateral Lien secures permitted Purchase Money Indebtedness or Capital Lease Obligations permitted under this Agreement, the ABL Obligations, the MSD Term Loan Obligations, the Notes Obligations (including Additional Notes) but only with respect to Notes Priority Collateral, or the Indebtedness permitted pursuant to clause (k) of “Permitted Indebtedness” definition, or any Refinancing Indebtedness of the foregoing. In connection with any termination or release that is authorized pursuant to this Section 15.11, Agent shall promptly (i) execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release and (ii) deliver to the Loan Parties any portion of such Collateral so released that is in the possession of Agent.

(b)                           Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders (i) to verify or assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Borrower or its Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, (ii) to verify or assure that Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, (iii) to verify or assure that any particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria applicable in respect thereof, (iv) to impose, maintain, increase, reduce, implement, or eliminate any particular reserve hereunder or to determine whether the amount of any reserve is appropriate or not, or (v) to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

(c)                            This Section 15.11 shall be subject in all respects to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements.

(d)                           The Agent shall be under no obligation to effect or maintain insurance or to renew any policies of insurance or to inquire as to the sufficiency of any policies of insurance carried by the Borrower or any other person or entity, or to report, or make or file claims or proof of loss for, any loss or damage insured against or that may occur, or to keep itself informed or advised as to the payment of any taxes or assessments, or to require any such payment to be made.

66

(e)                                  The Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any person, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

15.18                 Environmental Liability.

(a)                                 The Agent shall not be responsible or liable for the environmental condition or any contamination of any property secured by any mortgage or deed of trust or for any diminution in value of any such property as a result of any contamination of the property by any hazardous substance, hazardous material, pollutant or contaminant.  The Agent shall not be liable for any claims by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Lenders or any other person or entity arising from contamination of the property by any hazardous substance, hazardous material, pollutant or contaminant, and shall have no duty or obligation to assess the environmental condition of any such property or with respect to compliance of any such property under state or federal laws pertaining to the transport, storage, treatment or disposal of, hazardous substances, hazardous materials, pollutants, or contaminants or regulations, permits or licenses issued under such laws.

(b)                                 The Agent shall not be obligated to acquire possession of or take any action with respect to any property secured by a mortgage or deed of trust, if as a result of such action, the Agent would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee in possession of”, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such property within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Responsibility Cleanup and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time

68

to time, unless the Agent has previously determined, based upon a report prepared by a person who regularly conducts environmental audits, that (i) the such property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, that it would be in the best interest of the  to take such actions as are necessary for such property to comply therewith and (ii) there are not circumstances present at such property relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous wastes for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any federal, state or local law or regulation or that if any such materials are present for which such action could be required, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Lenders to take such actions with respect to such property.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, before taking any such action, the Agent may require that a satisfactory indemnity bond or environmental impairment insurance be furnished to it for the payment or reimbursement of all expenses to which it may be put and to protect it against all liability resulting from any claims, judgments, damages, losses, fees, penalties or expenses which may result from such action.

15.19                 Agent Not Required to Risk its Own Funds. No provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall require the Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties thereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to it.

15.20                 Force Majeure.  The Agent shall not be responsible or liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control.  Such acts shall include acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes or other disasters.  The Agent shall have no liability for losses arising from (i) any cause beyond its control, (ii) any delay, error, omission or default of any mail, telegraph, cable or wireless agency or operator or (iii) the acts or edicts of any government or governmental agency or other group or entity exercising governmental powers.  The Agent shall not be responsible for any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

16.                               WITHHOLDING TAXES.

69

increased, (c) Borrower or Agent shall make such deductions or withholding and the amount deducted or withheld shall be treated as paid to the relevant Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (d) Borrower will furnish to Agent as soon as practicable after the date the payment of any such Indemnified Tax is due to a Governmental Authority pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by Borrower.  Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp, value added or documentary Taxes or any other excise or property Taxes that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, performance, recordation, or filing of, or otherwise with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b)                           Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Lender is entitled to claim an exemption or reduction from United States withholding Tax, such Lender agrees to deliver to Agent and Borrower one of the following before receiving its first payment under this Agreement:

(i)                                     if such Lender is entitled to claim an exemption from United States withholding Tax pursuant to the portfolio interest exception, (A) a statement of the Lender, signed under penalty of perjury, that it is not a (I) a “bank” as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the IRC, (II) a 10% shareholder of Borrower (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the IRC), or (III) a controlled foreign corporation related to Borrower within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the IRC, and (B) a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E or Form W-8IMY (with proper attachments);

(ii)                                  if such Lender is entitled to claim an exemption from, or a reduction of, withholding Tax under a United States Tax treaty, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E;

(iii)                               if such Lender is entitled to claim that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding Tax because it is effectively connected with a United States trade or business of

70

such Lender, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iv)                              if such Lender is entitled to claim that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding Tax because such Lender serves as an intermediary, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY (with proper attachments);

(v)                                 a properly completed and executed copy of any other form or forms, including IRS Form W-9, as may be required under the IRC or other laws of the United States as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding or backup withholding Tax; or

(vi)                              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 Borrower and Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or 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 Borrower or Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and 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 Section 16.2(b)(vi), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(c)                            Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Lender claims an exemption from withholding Tax in a jurisdiction other than the United States, such Lender agrees with and in favor of Agent, to deliver to Agent any such form or forms, as may be required under the laws of such jurisdiction as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, foreign withholding Tax before receiving its first payment under this Agreement.

(d)                           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 16.2(a) or Section 16.2(c), the completion, execution and submission of documentation required by Section 16.2(a) and Section 16.2(c) shall only be required if the applicable Lender is legally able to deliver such forms, provided, however, that nothing in Section 16.2(a) or this Section 16.2(c) shall require a Lender to disclose any information that it deems to be confidential (including without limitation, its Tax returns).

(e)                            Each Lender shall provide new forms (or successor forms) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered forms and shall promptly notify Agent

71

and Borrower of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

(f)                             If a Lender claims exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax and such Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of Borrower to such Lender, such Lender agrees to notify Agent and Borrower of the percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial owner of Obligations of Borrower to such Lender. To the extent of such percentage amount, Agent will treat such Lender’s documentation provided pursuant to Section 16.2(a), Section 16.2(b), or Section 16.2(c) as no longer valid. With respect to such percentage amount, such Participant or Assignee shall provide documentation, pursuant to Section 16.2(a), Section 16.2(b), or Section 16.2(c), if applicable. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of this Section 16 with respect to its participation in any portion of the Obligations so long as such Participant complies with the obligations set forth in this Section 16 with respect thereto.

16.3                        Reductions.

(a)                           If a Lender or a Participant is subject to an applicable withholding Tax, Borrower or Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation) may withhold from any payment to such Lender or such Participant an amount of Taxes as required by applicable law.  If the forms or other documentation required by Section 16.2 are not delivered to Borrower or Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation), then Borrower or Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation) may withhold from any payment to such Lender or such Participant not providing such forms or other documentation an amount of Taxes as required by applicable law.

(b)                           If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation) did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender or any Participant due to a failure on the part of the Lender or any Participant (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify Agent (or such Participant failed to notify the Lender granting the participation) of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify and hold Agent harmless (or, in the case of a Participant, such Participant shall indemnify and hold the Lender granting the participation harmless) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation), as Tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation only), under this Section 16, together with all costs and expenses (including attorneys fees and expenses). The obligation of the Lenders and the Participants under this subsection shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of Agent.

16.4                        Refunds. If Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 16.1), so long as no Default or Event of Default has

72

occurred and is continuing, it shall pay over such refund to Borrower (but only to the extent of payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under this Section 16 with respect to Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such a refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the applicable Governmental Authority with respect to such a refund); provided, that Borrower, upon the request of Agent or such Lender, agree to repay the amount paid over to Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges, imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority, other than such penalties, interest or other charges imposed as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Agent hereunder) to Agent or such Lender in the event Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 16.4), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 16.4 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 and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 16 shall not be construed to require Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information which it deems confidential) to Borrower or any other Person.

16.5                        Excluded Taxes. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount or make any payment under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document with respect to Taxes if such Taxes are Excluded Taxes.
