On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to make loans (each a “Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in Dollars in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (a) such Lender’s Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment or (b) such Lender’s Revolving Lending Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Lending Commitment.

(a) Each Borrowing of Loans shall be made on notice given by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) (i) on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (ii) three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans.

The Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans unless, subject to Section 2.14, the Notice of Borrowing specifies that all or a portion thereof shall be Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each Borrowing of Loans shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000.00 and shall be allocated ratably in accordance with each Lender’s Revolving Commitment.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any proposed Borrowing that such Lender shall not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Ratable Portion of the Borrowing to be made on such date (or any portion thereof), the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with this Section 2.2, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the

If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such corresponding amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If the Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such payment shall not relieve such Lender of any obligation it may have hereunder to the Borrower.

(c) The failure of any Lender to make its Loan or any payment required by it on the date specified, including any payment in respect of its participation in Letter of Credit Obligations, shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to make its Loan or payment on such date but no such other Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any Lender to make a Loan or payment required under this Agreement.

On the Termination Date and if all Obligations (other than contingent reimbursement Obligations for which no claim has been made) have been repaid in full, such Extended Letters of Credit shall for all purposes cease to be Letters of Credit hereunder and the obligations of the Lenders to fund their Ratable Portions of such Extended Letters of Credit pursuant to clause (h) below shall be terminated except to the extent that any Letter of Credit has an expiration date after the Termination Date and has not been cash collateralized as described above. After the Termination Date and the repayment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent reimbursement Obligations for which no claim has been made), the terms for release of such cash collateral shall be as agreed from time to time between the Borrower and such Issuer; provided that in the absence of such agreement between the Borrower and such Issuer, the terms of this Agreement shall, as between the Borrower and such Issuer, continue to govern the fees, costs and expenses payable in respect of such Extended Letters of Credit.

(c) In connection with the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall give the relevant Issuer and the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days’ (unless the relevant Issuer otherwise agrees) prior written notice, in substantially the form of Exhibit E (or in such other written or electronic form as is acceptable to the Issuer), of the requested Issuance of such Letter of Credit (a “Letter of Credit Request”). Such notice shall be irrevocable on and after the Issuance of such Letter of Credit (and, prior to such Issuance, may be revoked only with the consent of the Issuer) and shall specify the Issuer of such Letter of Credit, the stated amount of the Letter of Credit requested, the date of Issuance of such requested Letter of Credit, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which date shall be a Business Day), and the Person for whose benefit the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued. Unless the Issuer and Administrative Agent otherwise agree, such notice, to be effective, must be received by the relevant Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the second Business Day prior to the requested Issuance of such Letter of Credit.

(d) Subject to (x) the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.4 and (y) receipt from the Administrative Agent, if requested by the Issuer, of the total outstanding amount of Reimbursement Obligations at such time and any fees and expenses related to Letters of Credit that are due and payable at such time (including the amount of any outstanding requests for Issuance), the relevant Issuer shall, on the requested date, Issue a Letter of Credit on behalf of the Borrower in accordance with such Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. No Issuer shall Issue any Letter of Credit in the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives written notice from the Administrative Agent or any Lender that one or more of the conditions

-47-

precedent contained in Section 3.2 shall not on such date be satisfied, and ending when such conditions are satisfied. The relevant Issuer shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.4(a)(iii) and Section 3.2 have been satisfied in connection with the Issuance of any Letter of Credit.

(e) If requested by the relevant Issuer, prior to the first Issuance of a Letter of Credit by such Issuer, and as a condition of such Issuance and of the participation of each Lender in the Letter of Credit Obligations arising with respect thereto, the Borrower shall have delivered to such Issuer a letter of credit reimbursement agreement, in such form as the Issuer may employ in its ordinary course of business for its own account (a “Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement”), signed by the Borrower, and such other documents or items as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.

(f) Each Issuer shall:

(i) give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, which writing may be a telecopy or, if consented to by the Administrative Agent, electronic mail) of the Issuance or renewal of a Letter of Credit issued by it, of all drawings under a Letter of Credit issued by it, the payment (or the failure to pay when due) by the Borrower of any Reimbursement Obligation and of the cancellation, termination or expiration of any Letter of Credit (of which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender);

(ii) upon the request of any Lender, furnish to such Lender copies of any Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement to which such Issuer is a party and such other documentation as may reasonably be requested by such Lender; and

(iii) no later than five Business Days following the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, provide to the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy to each Lender requesting the same) and the Borrower a schedule of Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, setting forth the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding at the end of each calendar quarter and any information requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent relating thereto.

(g) Effective with respect to the Existing Letters of Credit upon the occurrence of the Effective Date, and otherwise effective immediately upon the Issuance by an Issuer of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender and each Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and

-48-

received from each Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender’s Ratable Portion in such Letter of Credit and the obligations of the Borrower with respect thereto (including all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto) and any security therefor and guaranty pertaining thereto.

(h) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Issuer of any Letter of Credit the amount of all Reimbursement Obligations owing to such Issuer under any Letter of Credit issued for its account in Dollars (or the Dollar Equivalent of such payment if such payment was made in an Alternative Currency) no later than the date that is the next succeeding Business Day after the Borrower receives notice from such Issuer (or, if such notice is not received prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York Time) on any Business Day, then no later than 10:00 A.M. (New York Time) on the next succeeding Business Day) that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit, irrespective of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against such Issuer or any other Person. If any Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Borrower shall not have repaid such amount to such Issuer pursuant to this clause (h) or any such payment by the Borrower in respect thereof is rescinded or set aside for any reason, such Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on demand with interest thereon computed at the rate of interest applicable during such period to Loans that are Base Rate Loans, and such Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender, of such failure, and each Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Portion in Dollars (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof if such payment was made in an Alternative Currency) and in immediately available funds. If the Administrative Agent so notifies such Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, such Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer its Ratable Portion of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in immediately available funds as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. Whenever any Issuer receives from the Borrower a payment of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Issuer any payment from a Lender pursuant to this clause (h), such Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Lender in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Portion of the amount of such payment adjusted, if necessary, to reflect the respective amounts the Lenders have paid in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation.

(i) The Borrower’s obligation to pay each Reimbursement Obligation and the obligations of the Lenders (except as otherwise set forth in the penultimate sentence of Section 2.4(b)) to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuers with respect to Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, and irrespective of any of the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein;

-49-

(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;

(iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, any Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

(iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(v) payment by the Issuer under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or

(vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Issuer, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.4, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the relevant Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not put such Issuer under any resulting liability to the Borrower or any Lender. In determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, the Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuer may rely exclusively on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever. Any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in any case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this clause (i) shall be deemed to release any Issuer from liability with respect to its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

-50-

(j) If and to the extent any Lender shall not have so made its Ratable Portion of the amount of the payment required by clause (h) above available to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuer, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer forthwith on demand any amount so unpaid together with interest thereon, for the first Business Day after payment was first due at the Federal Funds Rate, and thereafter until such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer, at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuer its Ratable Portion of any such payment shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer its Ratable Portion of any payment on the date such payment is to be made, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer such other Lender’s Ratable Portion of any such payment.

(k) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum stated amount of each Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency and each obligation due with respect thereto, and a determination thereof by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Dollar Equivalent of each Reimbursement Obligation with respect to a drawn Letter of Credit shall be calculated on the date the Issuer pays the draw giving rise to such Reimbursement Obligation. The Administrative Agent shall determine or redetermine the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum stated amount of each Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, as applicable, on the date of each Issuance of such Letter of Credit and at any time, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion. The Administrative Agent may determine or redetermine the Dollar Equivalent of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency at any time upon request of any Lender or Issuer.

(l) If the Issuer of a Letter of Credit is not the Person acting as Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall furnish the Administrative Agent with (i) a copy of such Letter of Credit promptly upon the Issuance or renewal of such Letter of Credit and (ii) a copy of any amendment to such Letter of Credit promptly upon the effectiveness of such amendment.

(m) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Issuer shall be under any obligation to Issue any Letter of Credit if any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of cash collateral, satisfactory to the Issuer (in its sole discretion) with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be Issued or that Letter of Credit and all other Letter of Credit Obligations as to which the Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion.

-51-

Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is Issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of Issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

Section 2.5 Reduction and Termination of the Revolving Commitments

The Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused portions of the Revolving Commitments; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000.00 and (ii) each such reduction shall be made ratably in accordance with each Lender’s Revolving Commitment. A notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or other financing transactions, and if any notice so states it may be revoked by the Borrower by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date specified for the termination of the Revolving Commitments that the refinancing condition has not been met and the termination is to be revoked (it being understood that any Loans outstanding at the time of such notice or drawn thereafter will, upon such revocation, be continued as Base Rate Loans and, thereafter, may be converted to Eurodollar Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.11).

Section 2.6 Repayment of Loans

The Borrower promises to repay (in cash, in full and in immediately available funds) the entire unpaid principal amount of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations on the Termination Date (it being understood that other provisions of this Agreement may require all or part of such Obligations to be repaid earlier).

Section 2.7 Evidence of Debt

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

(b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made and, if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable by the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower, whether such sum constitutes principal or interest (and the type of Loan to which it applies), fees, expenses or other amounts due under the Loan Documents and each Lender’s share thereof, if applicable.

-52-

(c) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender requests that the Borrower execute and deliver a promissory note or notes payable to such Lender in order to evidence the Indebtedness owing to such Lender by the Borrower hereunder, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver a Note or Notes to such Lender evidencing any Loans of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit B.

Section 2.8 Voluntary Prepayments

The Borrower may, at any time, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in whole or in part; provided, however, that if any prepayment of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans is made by the Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period for such Borrowing, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.14(e); provided, further, that each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000.00. Upon the giving of such notice of prepayment, the principal amount of Loans specified to be prepaid shall become due and payable on the date specified for such prepayment; provided that a notice of prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in whole or in part may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or other financing transactions, and if any notice so states it may be revoked by the Borrower by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date specified for such prepayment that the refinancing condition has not been met and the notice of such prepayment is to be revoked (it being understood that any Loans outstanding at the time of such notice or drawn thereafter will, upon such revocation, be continued as Base Rate Loans and, thereafter, may be converted to Eurodollar Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.11).

Section 2.9 Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions

(a) Not later than the first Business Day following the date of receipt by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Specified Asset Sale, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such receipt. On the first Business Day following the receipt by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Specified Asset Sale, the Revolving Commitments shall be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Net Cash Proceeds, and if after giving effect to any such reduction in the Revolving Commitments, the aggregate principal amount of Outstandings exceeds the Revolving Commitments at such time, the Borrower shall repay the outstanding Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.9(e); provided that, so long as no

-53-

Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may, with respect to any Specified Asset Sale, on or prior to the date of the required commitment reduction, deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that the Borrower intends to cause such Net Cash Proceeds (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate) to be reinvested in long-term assets that are used or useful in the business of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries within 365 days after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, and certifying that, as of the date thereof, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case no reduction in Revolving Commitments shall occur with respect to the amount intended to be so reinvested as set forth in such certificate; provided further that the Revolving Commitments shall be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Net Cash Proceeds that are not so reinvested by the end of such period, and if after giving effect to any such reduction in Revolving Commitments, the aggregate principal amount of Outstandings exceeds the Revolving Commitments at such time, the Borrower shall repay the outstanding Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.9(e).

(b) Not later than the first Business Day following the date of receipt by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, or by the Administrative Agent as loss payee, of any Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Insurance/Condemnation Event, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such receipt. On the first Business Day following the receipt by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, or by the Administrative Agent as loss payee, of any Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Insurance/Condemnation Event, the Revolving Commitments shall be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Net Cash Proceeds, and if after giving effect to any such reduction in the Revolving Commitments, the aggregate principal amount of Outstandings exceeds the Revolving Commitments at such time, the Borrower shall repay the outstanding Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.9(e); provided that, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may, on or prior to the date of the required commitment reduction, deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that the Borrower intends to cause such Net Cash Proceeds (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate) to be reinvested in long-term assets that are used or useful in the business of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (including through the repair, restoration or replacement of the damaged, destroyed or condemned assets) on or prior to the date that is 365 days after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds (or, if the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary has entered into a binding commitment with respect to any such reinvestment within such 365-day period, the date, if later, that is 180 days after the date of such commitment), and certifying that, as of the date thereof, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case no reduction in Revolving Commitments shall occur with respect to the amount intended to be so reinvested as set forth in such certificate; provided further that the Revolving Commitments shall be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Net Cash Proceeds that are not so reinvested by the end of such period, and if after giving effect to any such reduction in Revolving Commitments, the aggregate principal amount

-54-

of Outstandings exceeds the Revolving Commitments at such time, the Borrower shall repay the outstanding Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.9(e).

(c) Not later than the first Business Day following the date of receipt by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Net Cash Proceeds from the incurrence of any Indebtedness (other than any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 8.1), the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such receipt. On the first Business Day following the receipt by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Net Cash Proceeds from the incurrence of any Indebtedness (other than any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 8.1), the Revolving Commitments shall be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Net Cash Proceeds, and if after giving effect to any such reduction in the Revolving Commitments the aggregate principal amount of Outstandings exceeds the Revolving Commitments at such time, the Borrower shall repay the outstanding Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.9(e).

(d) [Reserved].

(e) If, at any time, the aggregate principal amount of Outstandings exceeds the Revolving Commitments at such time, the Borrower shall forthwith repay the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding so that the amount of Outstandings does not exceed the Revolving Commitments at such time. If after giving effect to such repayment the aggregate principal amount of Outstandings exceeds the Revolving Commitments at such time, the Borrower shall forthwith provide cash collateral in respect of the Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 9.3 in an amount equal to 105% of such excess. If, at any time, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans exceeds the Borrowing Sublimit, the Borrower shall forthwith repay the Loans then outstanding so that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans does not exceed the Borrowing Sublimit. If, at any time, the aggregate outstanding amount of all Financial Letters of Credit exceeds the Financial Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Borrower shall forthwith provide cash collateral in respect of the Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 9.3 in an amount equal to 105% of such excess.

(f) Prior to or concurrently with any mandatory prepayment, cash collateralization or reduction pursuant to this Section 2.9, the Borrower (i) shall notify the Administrative Agent of such prepayment, cash collateralization or reduction and (ii) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower setting forth the calculation of the amount of the applicable prepayment, cash collateralization or reduction. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or portion thereof to be prepaid or cash collateralized (with such specification to be in accordance with Section 2.9(g)), or the effective date and the amount of any such reduction, as applicable, and may be given by telephone or in writing (and, if given by

-55-

telephone, shall promptly be confirmed in writing). Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the details thereof. Each mandatory prepayment of any Loans and Reimbursement Obligations shall be allocated among the Lenders in accordance with their applicable Ratable Portions.

Section 2.10 Interest

(a) Rate of Interest. All Loans and the outstanding amount of all other Obligations (other than Reimbursement Obligations, which shall bear interest as set forth in Section 2.4(h)) shall bear interest, in the case of Loans, on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loans are made and, in the case of such other Obligations, from the date such other Obligations are due and payable until, in all cases, paid in full, except as otherwise provided in clause (c) below, as follows:

(i) if a Base Rate Loan or such other Obligation, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate as in effect from time to time plus (B) the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans; and

(ii) if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Eurodollar Rate determined for the applicable Interest Period plus (B) the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(b) Interest Payments. (i) Interest accrued on each Base Rate Loan shall be payable in arrears (A) on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and (B) if not previously paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Base Rate Loan, (ii) interest accrued on each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be payable in arrears (A) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such Loan and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day during such Interest Period occurring every three months from the first day of such Interest Period, (B) upon the payment or prepayment thereof in full or in part and (C) if not previously paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and (iii) interest accrued on the amount of all other Obligations shall be payable on demand from and after the time such Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

(c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in clause (a) above or elsewhere herein, effective immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and for as long thereafter as such Event of Default shall be continuing, the interest rate otherwise in effect shall increase 2.00% per annum.

(d) Additional Reserve Requirements. The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any

-56-

reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Revolving Commitments or the funding of the Eurodollar Rate Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Revolving Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan provided the Borrower shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or costs from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant interest payment date, such additional interest or costs shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.

(e) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the Financial Statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or (b) (other than as a result of a change in GAAP), the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher Applicable Margin for such period, the Borrower shall immediately be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or Issuers, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Issuer, an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuer, as the case may be, under any provision of this Agreement to payment of any Obligations hereunder at a default rate pursuant to Section 2.10(c) or under Article IX. The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

Section 2.11 Conversion/Continuation Option

(a) The Borrower may elect (i) at any time on any Business Day to convert Base Rate Loans or any portion thereof to Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) at the end of any applicable Interest Period, to convert Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans or to continue such Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof for an additional Interest Period; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of the Eurodollar Rate Loans for each Interest Period must be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000.00. Each conversion or continuation shall be allocated among the Loans of each Lender in accordance with such Lender’s Ratable Portion. Each such election shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit F (a “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) and shall be made by giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) specifying, in each case, (A) the amount and Type of Loans being converted or continued, (B) in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the applicable Interest Period and (C) in the case of a conversion, the date of conversion.

-57-

(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation and of the options selected therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no conversion in whole or in part of Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans, and no continuation in whole or in part of Eurodollar Rate Loans upon the expiration of any applicable Interest Period, shall be permitted at any time during which (i) a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (ii) the continuation of, or conversion into, a Eurodollar Rate Loan would violate any provision of Section 2.14. If, within the time period required under the terms of this Section 2.11, the Administrative Agent does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation from the Borrower containing a permitted election to continue any Eurodollar Rate Loans for an additional Interest Period or to convert any such Loans, then, upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Period, such Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans. Each Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable.

Section 2.12 Fees

(a) Revolving Commitment Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (except for any Defaulting Lender) a commitment fee (the “Revolving Commitment Fee”), accruing at a rate per annum equal to 0.50% on the actual daily amount by which the Revolving Commitment of such Lender exceeds such Lender’s Revolving Exposure during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date, payable in arrears (i) on the third Business Day after the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and (ii) on the Termination Date.

(b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the following amounts with respect to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuer:

(i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Issuer of a Letter of Credit, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer, an issuance fee of 0.25% per annum (“Fronting Fees”) of the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars, based on the Dollar Equivalent of such amount on the last Business Day of such calendar quarter), payable in arrears on the third Business Day after the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and (B) on the Termination Date;

(ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account and ratable benefit of the Lenders (except for any Defaulting Lender that has not provided cash collateral in full satisfactory to the applicable Issuers pursuant to Section 2.4(m)), with respect to each Letter of Credit (but excluding that portion of any Letter of Credit that has been cash collateralized by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.4(m) as a result of any Defaulting Lender), a fee (the “Letter of Credit Participation Fee”) accruing at a rate per annum equal to (A) the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans at such time if such Letter of Credit is a Financial Letter of Credit and (B) 50% of the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans at such time if such Letter of Credit is a Performance Letter of Credit,

in each case on the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (in any case, in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars, based on the Dollar Equivalent of such amount on the last Business Day of such calendar quarter), payable in arrears (x) on the third Business Day after the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and (y) on the Termination Date; provided, however, that during the continuance of an Event of Default, such fee shall be increased by 2.00% per annum and shall be payable on demand; and

(iii) to the Issuer of any Letter of Credit, with respect to the Issuance, amendment or transfer of each Letter of Credit and each drawing made thereunder, documentary and processing charges in accordance with such Issuer’s standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of Issuance, amendment, transfer or drawing, as the case may be.

(d) Additional Fees. The Borrower has agreed to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders additional fees, the amount and dates of payment of which are embodied in certain fee letters executed and delivered by the Borrower in connection with this Agreement and the Existing Credit Agreement and as may otherwise have been separately agreed upon by the Borrower in writing in connection herewith or therewith.

(e) Payment of Fees to Lenders. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees to pay to each Lender such Lender’s Ratable Portion and the Letter of Credit Participation Fee, as applicable, received by the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, promptly following receipt of each of the same from (and only to the extent each such fee is received from) the Borrower or any other Loan Party; provided that (i) the Ratable Portion of any Revolving Commitment Fee shall be calculated without giving effect to the Revolving Commitment of any Defaulting Lender and (ii) any Letter of Credit Participation Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which neither such Defaulting Lender nor the Borrower has provided cash collateral satisfactory to the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.4(m) shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Ratable Portions allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.20(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Issuer for its own account.

Section 2.13 Payments and Computations

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder (including fees and expenses) not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day when due, in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 11.8 in immediately available funds without set-off or counterclaim. The Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter cause to be distributed immediately available funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees to the applicable Lenders, in accordance with the

-59-

application of payments set forth in clauses (e) or (f) below, as applicable, for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices; provided, however, that amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15, Section 2.16 or Section 2.14(c) or (d) shall be paid only to any affected Lender. Payments received by the Administrative Agent after 3:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed (in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) to be received on the next Business Day.

(b) All computations of interest and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed (in each case calculated to include the first day but exclude the last day) (i) over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, in the case of interest accruing at the Base Rate when the Base Rate is determined by reference to the Prime Rate, and (ii) over a year of 360 days at all other times. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment to be made in the next calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. All repayments of any Loans shall be applied as follows: first, to repay such Loans outstanding as Base Rate Loans and then, to repay such Loans outstanding as Eurodollar Rate Loans, with those Eurodollar Rate Loans having earlier expiring Interest Periods being repaid prior to those having later expiring Interest Periods.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each applicable Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each applicable Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate, for the first three Business Days, and, thereafter, at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Subject to the provisions of clause (f) below, all payments and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent from or for the benefit of the Borrower shall be applied as follows: first, to pay principal of, and interest on, any portion of the Loans the Administrative Agent may have advanced pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement on behalf of any Lender, for which the Administrative Agent has not been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower, second, to pay all other Obligations then due and payable, and third, as the Borrower so

-60-

designates. Payments in respect of Loans received by the Administrative Agent shall, subject to Section 2.20, be distributed to each Lender in accordance with such Lender’s Ratable Portion (calculated (i) in the case of principal payments, without giving effect to the Revolving Commitments of any Defaulting Lender that has not fully funded its share of the Loans being repaid and (ii) in the case of interest and fee payments, without giving effect to the Revolving Commitments of any Defaulting Lender for the amount of interest, Letter of Credit Participation Fees or Revolving Commitment Fees payable in respect of Loans or Letter of Credit Obligations for which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its share of the Loan or Letter of Credit Obligations) and as adjusted in accordance with Section 2.12(d) and Section 2.20(a)(iv).

(f) The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments in respect of the Obligations and any net proceeds of Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether from a Loan Party’s sale of Collateral or the Collateral Agent’s or any Secured Party’s receipt of proceeds from any exercise of remedies, and the Borrower and each Lender agrees that, during such time, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may, and upon either (A) the written direction of the Requisite Lenders or (B) the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 9.2 shall, apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and all other proceeds of Collateral, in the following order (subject to any adjustments under Section 2.20(a)(ii)):

first, to pay interest on and then principal of (i) the Loans that the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower and (ii) the Reimbursement Obligations owed to any Issuer for which such Issuer has not then been reimbursed by any Lender or the Borrower;

second, to pay Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or indemnities (including fees and expenses in respect of cash management services) then due to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent;

third, to pay Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or indemnities (including fees and expenses in respect of cash management services) then due to the Lenders and the Issuers;

fourth, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees then due to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers;

fifth, to pay interest then due and payable in respect of the Loans (ratably to the aggregate principal amount of such Loans) and Reimbursement Obligations; and

sixth, to pay or prepay the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and other Obligations and to provide cash collateral for outstanding Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts in the manner described in Section 9.3, ratably to the aggregate amount of such Loans, Reimbursement Obligations, other Obligations and Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts;

-61-

provided, however, that if sufficient funds are not available to fund all payments to be made in respect of any Obligation described in any of clauses first through sixth above, the available funds being applied with respect to any such Obligation (unless otherwise specified in such clause) shall be allocated to the payment of such Obligations ratably, based on the proportion of the Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s or Issuer’s interest in the aggregate outstanding Obligations described in such clauses.

If any Secured Party collects or receives any amounts or obtains any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off or otherwise) on account of the Obligations to which it is not entitled under or in excess of the amount it would be entitled under this Section 2.13(f) if such payment had been received by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, such Secured Party shall hold the same in trust for the applicable Secured Parties entitled thereto and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, for the account of such Secured Parties, to be applied in accordance this Section 2.13(f), in each case until the prior payment in full in cash of the applicable Obligations of such Secured Parties.

Section 2.14 Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans

(a) Determination of Interest Rate. The Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be determined by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate.” The Administrative Agent’s determination shall be presumed to be correct absent manifest error and shall be binding on the Borrower.

(b) Interest Rate Unascertainable, Inadequate or Unfair. If (i) the Administrative Agent determines that adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rates by reference to which the Eurodollar Rate then being determined is to be fixed or (ii) the Requisite Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period will not adequately reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period or calendar quarter, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period for such Loan, convert into a Base Rate Loan and the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the Requisite Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, which notice shall be given promptly following such determination. Thereafter, the Borrower’s right to request, and the Lenders’ obligations, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be restored.

(c) Increased Costs. If at any time any Lender or an Issuer determines that any Change in Law (including any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements included in determining the Eurodollar Rate) shall (i) have the

-62-

effect of increasing the cost to such Lender or such Issuer of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (ii) subject any Lender or any Issuer to any Tax (except for Taxes or Other Taxes indemnifiable pursuant to Section 2.16) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuer of making, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuer hereunder with respect to a Eurodollar Rate Loan or Letter of Credit (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender or such Issuer (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or such Issuer additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such Issuer for such additional cost incurred or reduction suffered. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost shall be, together with supporting documents, submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender or such Issuer and shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except to the extent, if any, the change (or compliance) referred to in such certificate shall be retroactive, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuer pursuant to this clause (c) for any increased costs or reduction incurred more than 180 days prior to the date of such certificate. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuer the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after its receipt of the same.

(d) Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender determines that the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order after the date of this Agreement shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) the obligation of such Lender to make or to continue Eurodollar Rate Loans and to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, and each such Lender shall make a Base Rate Loan as part of any requested Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) if the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans are then outstanding, the Borrower shall immediately convert each such Loan into a Base Rate Loan. If, at any time after a Lender gives notice under this Section 2.14(d), such Lender determines that it may lawfully make Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Lender shall promptly give notice of that determination to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender. The Borrower’s right to request, and such Lender’s obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon be restored.

(e) Breakage Costs. In addition to all amounts required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon

-63-

demand, for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Loan to the Borrower, but excluding any loss of the Applicable Margin or other profit on the relevant Loans) that such Lender may sustain (i) if for any reason a proposed Borrowing or continuation of, or conversion into, Eurodollar Rate Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation given by the Borrower or in a telephonic request by it for borrowing or conversion or continuation or a successive Interest Period does not commence after notice therefor is given pursuant to Section 2.11, (ii) if for any reason any Eurodollar Rate Loan is prepaid by reason of an increase or a reduction in Commitments on a date that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, (iii) as a consequence of a required conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as a result of any of the events indicated in clause (d) above, (iv) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to repay Eurodollar Rate Loans when required by the terms hereof, or (v) as a consequence of the assignment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17 or Section 11.1(c). The Lender making demand for such compensation shall deliver to the Borrower concurrently with such demand a written statement as to such losses, expenses and liabilities, and this statement shall be conclusive as to the amount of compensation due to such Lender, absent manifest error.

(f) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.14 shall survive the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, and the satisfaction or discharge of the Obligations.

Section 2.15 Capital Adequacy

If at any time any Lender or any Issuer determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuer’s (or any Person controlling such Lender’s or such Issuer’s) capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuer or Person could have achieved but for such Change in Law, then, upon demand from time to time by such Lender or such Issuer, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or such Issuer, from time to time as specified by such Lender or such Issuer, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such Issuer for such reduction. A certificate as to such amounts setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand and a calculation for such amount shall be submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender or such Issuer and shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except to the extent, if any, the change (or compliance) referred to in any such certificate shall be retroactive, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or such Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any reduction in rates of return with respect to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to the date of each such certificate. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower

-64-

hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.15 shall survive the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, and the satisfaction or discharge of the Obligations.

Section 2.16 Taxes

(a) All payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party to or for the account of any Lender or Issuer or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under each Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, withholdings (including backup withholding), assessments, fees or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority, including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto, except pursuant to a Requirement of Law (which for purposes of this Section 2.16 shall include FATCA). If a Withholding Agent shall be required by law (as determined in the good faith discretion of such Withholding Agent) to deduct or withhold any taxes from or in respect of any such payment to any Lender or the Administrative Agent then, (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deductions or withholdings, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted by it to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the applicable Requirement of Law, and (iii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall furnish to the Administrative Agent (in case the applicable Withholding Agent is a Loan Party) or to the Borrower (in case the applicable Withholding Agent is the Administrative Agent) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, a copy of the return reporting such payment, or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or the Borrower (as applicable) within 30 days after such payment is made. In addition, in the case of any taxes, excluding in the case of each Lender, each Issuer and the Administrative Agent (i) taxes imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated), branch profits taxes, and franchise taxes, in each case (x) imposed by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof or any jurisdiction that includes such jurisdiction as a subdivision) under the laws of which such Lender, Issuer or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized or in which it has its principal office or, in the case of any Lender, its applicable lending office or (y) that are Other Connection Taxes, (ii) any U.S. withholding taxes (other than U.S. withholding taxes to the extent such taxes (A) would not be imposed or payable (including, without limitation, as the result of an applicable income tax treaty that otherwise would reduce or eliminate the tax) if the Borrower was a United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code or (B) are imposed with respect to payments from any United States person to the Borrower) payable with respect to payments under the Loan Documents under laws (including any statute, treaty or regulation) in effect on the Effective Date (or, in the case of any Lender that became a Lender by assignment or transfer after the Effective Date, the effective date of such assignment or transfer, except to the extent that such Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.16) or on the date the applicable Lender changes its lending office (except to the extent such Lender was entitled to receive additional amounts from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.16 at the time of such change in lending office), (iii) taxes imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated), branch profits

-65-

taxes, and franchise taxes imposed as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender, Issuer or Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof or any jurisdiction that includes such jurisdiction as a subdivision) of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any taxing authority thereof or therein, (iv) any taxes attributable to a failure to comply with clause (e) below, (v) any U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed pursuant to FATCA, or (vi) any penalties, interest, additions to tax or other liabilities with respect to taxes described in subclauses (i) through (v) (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”), or Other Taxes (as defined below) in either case deducted or withheld by a Withholding Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the sum payable by the Borrower under the applicable Loan Document shall be increased as necessary so that after making all such required deductions or withholdings for Taxes or Other Taxes (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16) such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any stamp, court or documentary, intangible, recording, filing or similar taxes (including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto) , in each case arising from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, from the receipt or perfection of a security interest under, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document, except any such taxes that are Other Connection Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (other than an assignment made pursuant to Section 2.17) (such non-excluded taxes, collectively, “Other Taxes”).

(c) The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, for the full amount of Taxes imposed on or with respect to a payment made by or on account of an obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 2.16(c)) deducted or withheld by the Borrower or paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 10 days of the date the Administrative Agent or such Lender makes demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Administrative Agent, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the parties contained in this Section 2.16 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, and the satisfaction or discharge of the Obligations.

-66-

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

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a “United States Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code,

(A)

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

(B)

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

(1)

in the case of a non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8BEN, as applicable,

-67-

establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8BEN, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2)

properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3)

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

(4)

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

(C)

any non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by

-68-

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

(D)

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

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

(f) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower or the Administrative Agent with the appropriate form or other document described in clause (e) above, as applicable (other than if such failure is due to a change in any applicable Requirement of Law occurring after the date on which a form originally was required to be provided, or if such form is not required under clause (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under clause (a) or (c) above with respect to Taxes imposed by reason of such failure.

-69-

(g) If any Lender, Issuer or the Administrative Agent receives a refund or credit in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has received a payment from or has been indemnified by a Loan Party pursuant to this Section 2.16 or a similar provision of any Loan Document, which refund or credit in solely the good faith judgment of such Lender or Issuer or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is attributable to such payment or indemnification made by the Loan Party or the associated Tax or Other Tax, it shall notify the Borrower of such receipt and shall, within 30 days after the later of the receipt of a written request by the Borrower or the receipt or application of such refund or credit (unless such Lender reasonably expects that it shall be required to repay such refund or credit to the relevant Governmental Authority), pay the amount of such refund or credit to the Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender and taxes imposed on the Lender or Issuer or Administrative Agent with respect to such amounts, without interest thereon and subject to Section 11.6; provided, however, that the Borrower agrees to return such refund or credit paid by the Lender, Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this paragraph (g) to such Lender or Issuer or the Administrative Agent within 30 days after receipt of written notice in the event that such Lender or Issuer or the Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund or credit to the relevant Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will a Lender or Issuer or the Administrative Agent be required to pay any amount to any Loan Party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the Lender or Issuer or Administrative Agent in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Lender or Issuer or Administrative Agent would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund or credit had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. Nothing contained in this Section 2.16 shall require any Lender or the Administrative Agent to make available to any Loan Party any Tax Return or any other document containing information that it deems to be confidential.

(h) For purposes of determining withholding taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Effective Date, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders and Issuers hereby authorize the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

Section 2.17 Substitution of Lenders

If (a)(i) any Lender makes a claim under Section 2.14(c) or 2.15, (ii) it becomes illegal for any Lender to continue to fund or make any Eurodollar Rate Loan and such Lender notifies the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.14(d), (iii) the Borrower is required to make any payment pursuant to Section 2.16 that is attributable to a particular Lender, or (iv) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, (b) in the case of clause (a)(i) above, as a consequence of increased costs in respect of which such claim is made, the effective rate of interest payable to such Lender under this Agreement with respect to its Loans exceeds the effective average rate of interest payable to the Requisite Lenders under this Agreement, and (c) in the case of clauses (a)(i) and (ii) above, Lenders holding at least 75% of the Revolving Commitments are not subject to such increased costs or illegality,

-70-

payment or proceedings (any such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), the Borrower may substitute another financial institution for such Affected Lender hereunder, upon reasonable prior written notice (which written notice must be given within 90 days following the notification to the Borrower of any applicable event described in clauses (a)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above) by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender that the Borrower intends to make such substitution. A substitute financial institution (x) must be an Eligible Assignee and (y) if not already a Lender, must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and, in the case of a substitute Lender, each Issuer; provided, however, that, if more than one Lender claims increased costs, illegality or right to payment arising from the same act or condition and such claims are received by the Borrower within 30 days of each other, then the Borrower may substitute all, but not (except to the extent the Borrower has already substituted one of such Affected Lenders before the Borrower’s receipt of the other Affected Lenders’ claim) less than all, Lenders making such claims. If the proposed substitute financial institution or other entity meets the conditions set forth in clauses (x) and (y) above and the written notice was properly issued under this Section 2.17, the Affected Lender shall sell and the substitute financial institution or other entity shall purchase, at par plus accrued interest, all rights and claims of such Affected Lender under the Loan Documents and such substitute financial institution or other entity shall assume, and the Affected Lender shall be relieved of, its Revolving Commitments and all other prior unperformed obligations of the Affected Lender under the Loan Documents (other than in respect of any damages (other than exemplary or punitive damages, to the extent permitted by applicable law) in respect of any such unperformed obligations). Such Affected Lender, upon the effectiveness of such sale, purchase and assumption (that, in any event shall be conditioned upon the payment in full by the Borrower in cash of all fees, unreimbursed costs and expenses and indemnities accrued and unpaid through such effective date to such Affected Lender), the substitute financial institution or other entity shall become a “Lender” hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement having a Revolving Commitment in the amount of such Affected Lender’s Revolving Commitment assumed by it and such Revolving Commitment of the Affected Lender shall be terminated; provided, however, that all indemnities under the Loan Documents shall continue in favor of such Affected Lender. Such Affected Lender shall execute an Assignment and Acceptance to evidence such transfer; provided, however, that the failure of the Affected Lender to execute such Assignment and Acceptance shall not invalidate such assignment, and such Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to be executed upon receipt by such Affected Lender of such payment in full.

Section 2.18 Mitigation

If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14(c), or requires the Borrower to pay any Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14(c) or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not

-71-

subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Section 2.19 Cash Collateral

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, promptly (but in any event within five Business Days) after the request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuer, the Borrower shall deliver to the Collateral Agent cash collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv) and any cash collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All cash collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked deposit accounts at the Collateral Agent (including, in the case of cash collateral provided pursuant to Section 9.3, the Cash Collateral Account). To the extent provided by the Borrower, the Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the Issuers and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, and to maintain such security interest as a first-priority security interest, all as security for the obligations to which such cash collateral may be applied pursuant to clause (c) below. If at any time the Collateral Agent determines that cash collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Collateral Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such cash collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly (but in any event within 5 Business Days) after demand by the Collateral Agent, pay or provide to the Collateral Agent additional cash collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, cash collateral provided under this Section 2.19 or Section 2.4, Section 2.5, Section 2.9, Section 2.13, Section 2.20, or Section 9.3 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Letter of Credit Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to cash collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which such cash collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Release. Cash collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 11.2(b)(iv)) or (ii) the Collateral Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess cash

-72-

collateral; provided, however, that (x) cash collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.19 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 2.13(e) and (f), and (y) the Person providing cash collateral and the Issuer may agree that cash collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

Section 2.20 Defaulting Lenders

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Each Lender hereby agrees that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and each Lender hereby agrees that any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except as provided in the last sentence of Section 11.1(a).

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 2.9 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.6), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows:

first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder;

second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to an Issuer hereunder;

third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by an Issuer, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit;

fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent;

fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement;

-73-

sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the other Lenders or the Issuers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or any Issuer against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement;

seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and

eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or Reimbursement Obligations were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and the Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, that Defaulting Lender.

Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.20(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any Revolving Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Participation Fees as provided in Section 2.12(b)(ii).

(iv) Reallocation of Ratable Portions to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.4, the “Ratable Portion” of each Non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Revolving Commitments of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstandings of that Lender.

-74-

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Issuer agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Ratable Portions (without giving effect to clause (a)(iv) above), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender and no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) Replacement of Defaulting Lenders. If any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to be replaced in accordance with Section 2.17.

Section 2.21 Incremental Revolving Commitments

(a) From time to time prior to the Termination Date, the Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent request one or more increases to the existing Revolving Commitments (any such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase” and, any additional Revolving Commitments provided pursuant to any Revolving Commitment Increase, a “New Revolving Commitment”), by an amount (i) such that the Revolving Commitment immediately after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase does not exceed $1,000,000,000.00 and (ii) that is not less than $25,000,000.00 for any New Revolving Commitment.

-75-

(c) Such New Revolving Commitments shall become effective, as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New Revolving Commitments; (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV and in the other Loan Documents that have no materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualification shall be true and correct in all material respects and the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV and in the other Loan Documents that have a materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualification shall be true and correct in all respects, in each case with the same effect as though made on and as of the Increased Amount Date or, to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, as of such earlier date (iii) the Borrower shall be in pro forma compliance with each of the covenants set forth in Article V as of the most recent date of determination after giving effect to such New Revolving Commitments; (iv) the New Revolving Commitments shall be effected pursuant to an increase and joinder agreement (an “Increase and Joinder Agreement”) in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent and each Issuer in its reasonable discretion, executed and delivered by the Borrower, any existing Lender providing a New Revolving Commitment, any New Lender providing a New Revolving Commitment and the Administrative Agent (and, to the extent required, each Issuer), and which shall be recorded in the Register, and each New Lender shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.16(e) and (f); (v) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with any such Revolving Commitment Increase; (vi) the Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.14(e) in connection with the New Revolving Commitments and (vii) unless all obligations under the Existing Second Lien Notes have been repaid in full, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments shall not exceed $900,000,000.00. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Issuer shall have approved the Revolving Commitment Increase allocated to each existing Lender and the New Revolving Commitment allocated to each New Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

(d) On the Increased Amount Date, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each of the existing Lenders shall assign to each of the New Lenders, and each of the New Lenders shall purchase from each of the existing Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations will be held by existing Lenders and New Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the applicable Revolving Commitment Increase, (ii) each New Revolving Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Commitment, (iii) each New Lender shall become a Lender with respect to its New Revolving Commitment and all matters relating thereto and all other matters under this Agreement, and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including any New Lenders) of the effectiveness of the applicable Revolving Commitment Increase and each Lender’s interests in the outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations after giving effect to the assignments contemplated by this Section 2.21.

-76-

(e) The terms and provisions of the New Revolving Commitments shall be identical to the existing Revolving Commitments. Each Increase and Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent to effect the provision of this Section 2.21.

-101-

or warranty with respect to such report, and (iii) by delivering such report to the Borrower, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender is requiring or recommending the implementation of any suggestions or recommendations contained in such report.

(d) The Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of (i) any proposed acquisition of Stock, assets, or property by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to expose the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to, or result in, Environmental Liabilities and Costs in excess of $20,000,000.00 and (ii) any proposed action to be taken by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to commence manufacturing, industrial or other similar operations that could reasonably be expected to subject the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to additional Environmental Laws, that are materially different from the Environmental Laws applicable to the operations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as of the Effective Date.

(e) The Borrower shall, at its own expense, provide copies of such documents or information as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in relation to any matters disclosed pursuant to this Section 7.10.

In the event the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries undertakes any Remedial Action with respect to the presence, Release or threatened Release of any Contaminants on or affecting any property, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall conduct and complete such Remedial Action in material compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, and in material accordance with the applicable policies, orders and directives of all relevant Governmental Authorities except when, and only to the extent that, the Borrower or any such Subsidiaries’ liability for such presence, handling, storage, use, disposal, transportation or Release or threatened Release of any Contaminants is being contested in good faith by Borrower or any of such Subsidiaries. In the event the Borrower fails to take required actions to address such Release or threatened Release of Contaminants or to address a violation of or liability under Environmental Law, the Administrative Agent may, upon providing the Borrower with 5 Business Days’ prior written notice, enter the property and, at the Borrower’s sole expense, perform whatever action the Administrative Agent reasonably deems prudent to rectify the situation.

Section 9.2 Remedies

During the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent (a) may, and, at the request of the Requisite Lenders, shall, by notice to the Borrower declare that all or any portion of the Revolving Commitments be terminated, whereupon the obligation of each Lender to make any Loan and each Issuer to Issue any Letter of Credit shall immediately terminate and (b) may and, at the request of the Requisite Lenders, shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loans, all interest thereon and all other amounts and Obligations payable under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Loans, all such interest and all such amounts and Obligations shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in Section 9.1(f) with respect to the Borrower, (x) the Revolving Commitments of each Lender to make Loans and the commitments of each Lender and Issuer to Issue or participate in Letters of Credit shall each automatically be terminated and (y) the Loans, all such interest and all such amounts and Obligations shall automatically become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

The Administrative Agent shall promptly give written notice of any such application; provided, however, that the failure to give such written notice shall not invalidate any such application.

The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the Issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the Issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 10.3 The Agents Individually

The Person serving as each Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not such Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Persons serving as the Agents hereunder in such Person’s individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 10.4 Lender Credit Decision

Each Lender and each Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

-124-

Section 10.5 Indemnification

(a) Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Issuer (in such capacities) and each of their respective Affiliates, and each of their respective Related Parties (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), from and against such Lender’s aggregate Ratable Portion (determined at the time such indemnity is made) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Issuer or any of their respective Related Parties in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or such Issuer under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s, Collateral Agent’s or such Issuer’s or such Related Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or each Issuer as applicable, promptly upon demand for its Ratable Portion (determined at the time such reimbursement is made) of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or such Issuer as applicable, 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 its rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to the extent that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or such Issuer, as applicable, is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or another Loan Party.

(b) To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent in respect of tax or otherwise, including any penalties and interest and together with any all costs and expenses (including legal expenses, and any out of pocket expenses) incurred, whether or not such tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.

Section 10.6 Successor Agents

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuers and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice

-125-

of resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank (other than a Defaulting Lender) with an office in the United States of America, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States of America. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuers, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuer directly, until such time as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article X and Sections 11.3 and 11.4 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

(b) The Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuers and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank (other than a Defaulting Lender) with an office in the United States of America, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States of America. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Collateral Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuers, appoint a successor Collateral Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Collateral Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any

-126-

collateral security held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Collateral Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuer directly, until such time as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Collateral Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Collateral Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article X and Sections 11.3 and 11.4 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Collateral Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Collateral Agent was acting as Collateral Agent.

Section 10.7 Concerning the Collateral and the Collateral Documents

(a) Each Lender and each Issuer agrees that any action taken by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or, where required by the express terms of this Agreement, a different proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or, where so required, such other proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be deemed authorized by and shall be binding upon all of the Lenders, Issuers and other Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Lenders and the Issuers with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection herewith and with the Collateral Documents, (ii) execute and deliver each Collateral Document and accept delivery of each such agreement delivered by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) act as collateral agent for the Lenders, the Issuers and the other Secured Parties for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens created by such agreements and all other purposes stated therein, (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the Collateral, (v) take such action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interests and Liens created or purported to be created by the Collateral Documents and (vi) except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document, exercise all remedies given to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, the Issuers and the other Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents relating thereto, applicable law or otherwise.

-127-

(b) Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby irrevocably consents, in accordance with the terms hereof, to the Collateral Agent’s release (or, in the case of clause (ii) below, release or subordination) of any Lien held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties against any of the following:

(i) all of the Collateral, upon termination or expiration of the Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all other Obligations, including the cash collateralization of any obligations in respect of Letters of Credit to the extent required under this Agreement (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claims has been asserted, any Treasury Management Obligations and any Hedging Obligations) that the Collateral Agent has been notified in writing are then due and payable (and, in respect of contingent obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, with respect to which cash collateral has been deposited or a back-up letter of credit has been issued, in either case on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuers);

(ii) any assets that are subject to a Lien permitted by Section 8.2(b), (d)(ii), (d)(iii) or (l) or any refinancings thereof permitted under Section 8.2(e); and

(iii) if such sale or disposition is permitted by this Agreement (or permitted pursuant to a waiver or consent of a transaction otherwise prohibited by this Agreement), any Collateral sold or disposed of by a Loan Party and/or the guaranty of any Guarantor which has been voluntarily sold or disposed of by a Loan Party or otherwise ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower as a result of a transaction permitted by this Agreement.

Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby irrevocably consents, in accordance with the terms hereof, to the Administrative Agent’s release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Pledge and Security Agreement if such release is permitted by Section 11.1(a)(viii). Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby irrevocably consents to the Collateral Agent’s execution, delivery and filing of such termination and partial release statements and such other things as are necessary to release Liens and guaranties to be released pursuant to this Section 10.7 promptly upon the effectiveness of any such release.

(c) The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are hereby authorized to enter into intercreditor arrangements with holders of Permitted Second Lien Debt. A copy of any documents evidencing such intercreditor arrangements will be made available to each Secured Party upon request. Each Secured Party (by receiving the benefits thereunder) acknowledges and agrees to the terms of such intercreditor arrangements and agrees that the terms thereof shall be binding on such Secured Party and its successors and assigns as if it were a party thereto.

The benefit of the Loan Documents and of the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Collateral shall extend to and be available in respect of any Obligation that is otherwise owed to Persons other than the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers (collectively, “Related Obligations”) solely on the condition and understanding, as among the Collateral Agent and all Secured Parties, that (a) the Related Obligations shall be entitled to the benefit of the Loan Documents and the Collateral to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to such extent the Collateral Agent shall hold, and have the right and power to act with respect to, the Collateral Documents and the Collateral on behalf of and as agent for the holders of the Related Obligations, but the Collateral Agent is otherwise acting solely as agent for the Lenders and the Issuers and shall have no fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Related Obligations, (b) all matters, acts and omissions relating in any manner to the Collateral Documents, the Collateral, or the omission, creation, perfection, priority, abandonment or release of any Lien, shall be governed solely by the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and no separate Lien, right, power or remedy shall arise or exist in favor of any Secured Party under any separate instrument or agreement or in respect of any Related Obligation, (c) each Secured Party shall be bound by all actions taken or omitted, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Requisite Lenders (or such other group of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), each of whom shall be entitled to act at its sole discretion and exclusively in its own interest given its own Revolving Commitment and its own interest in the Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and other Obligations arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, without any duty or liability to any other Secured Party or as to any Related Obligation and without regard to whether any Related Obligation remains outstanding or is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral or becomes unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy thereby, and (d) no holder of Related Obligations and no other Secured Party (except the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers, to the extent set forth in this Agreement) shall have any right to be notified of, or to direct, require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted in respect of the Collateral or under this Agreement or the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Treasury Management Agreements and Hedging Contracts unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Secured Party, as the case may be.

(b) The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the written concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(c) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all affected Lenders, the consent of Requisite Lenders is obtained but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this Section 11.1(c) being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, at the Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent or an Eligible Assignee reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (provided, that any Lender, Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund shall be acceptable) shall have the right (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lender, and such Non-Consenting Lender agrees that it shall, upon such request and acceptance, sell and assign to the Lender acting as the Administrative Agent or such Eligible Assignee, all of the Revolving Commitments and applicable Outstandings of such Non-Consenting Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all applicable Loans held by the Non-Consenting Lender and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto and other amounts due and payable hereunder through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, and the Assignee shall pay any processing and recordation fee (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); provided, however, that the failure to execute such Assignment and Acceptance by the Non-Consenting Lender shall not invalidate such assignment, and such Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to be executed upon receipt by such Non-Consenting Lender of the proceeds of such sale and acceptance.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Secured Parties hereby authorize the Collateral Agent to release (i) the Mortgage made by McDermott, Inc. on the marine vessel Intermac 600, (ii) the Mortgage made by McDermott, Inc. on the Mortgaged Property located at the Port of Gulfport, Mississippi, together with any other Collateral Documents related thereto, upon receipt by Administrative Agent of evidence in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent of the release of such Collateral from all mortgages and other liens securing the Existing Second Lien Notes if at such time (x) the Loan Parties would not otherwise be required under Sections 7.11 or 7.12 to deliver a Mortgage or other Collateral Document in respect of such property and (y) such property is free and clear of all other Liens securing Indebtedness. The foregoing shall not limit the Loan Parties’ obligations under Sections 7.11 or 7.12 following any such release.

Section 11.2 Assignments and Participations

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of clause (b) below, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of clause (d) below or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of clause (f) below (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in clause (d) below and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, the Bookrunners, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agent, the Lenders, and the Issuers) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts. (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and (B) in any case not described in clause (A) above, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Revolving Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000.00 unless the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Revolving Commitment.

-133-

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (b)(i)(B) above and, in addition: (A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof; (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuer (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and (C) the consent of each Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).

(iv) Assignment and Acceptance. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500.00, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

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

(vii) No Assignment to Defaulting Lenders. No such assignment shall be made to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons.

(viii) [Reserved].

(ix) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative

-134-

Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Ratable Portion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (c) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 11.4 and 11.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (d) below.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.8 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and Issuers, and the Revolving Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations owing to, each Lender or Issuer pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuers and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such

-135-

Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and 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. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver which would (x) reduce the amount, or postpone any date fixed for any amount (whether of principal, interest or fees) payable to such Participant under the Loan Documents, to which such Participant would otherwise be entitled under such participation, (y) increase the commitment applicable to such Participant or (z) result in the release of all or substantially all of the Collateral or the release of all or substantially all of the Guarantees. Subject to clause (e) below, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) above. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.6 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 11.7 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.14(c), 2.15 and 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in applicable Requirement of Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. A Participant shall be entitled

-136-

to the benefits of Section 2.16 as if it were a Lender which received its interest pursuant to an assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section, but only if the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Sections 2.16, 2.17 and 2.18 as though it were a Lender.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) In addition to the other assignment rights provided in this Section 11.2, each Lender may (i) grant to a Special Purpose Vehicle the option to make all or any part of any Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder and the exercise of such option by any such Special Purpose Vehicle and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy (once and to the extent that such Loans are made) the obligation of such Lender to make such Loans thereunder, provided, however, that nothing herein shall constitute a commitment or an offer to commit by such a Special Purpose Vehicle to make Loans hereunder and no such Special Purpose Vehicle shall be liable for any indemnity or other Obligation (other than the making of Loans for which such Special Purpose Vehicle shall have exercised an option, and then only in accordance with the relevant option agreement), and (ii) assign, as collateral or otherwise, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans) to (y) any trustee for the benefit of the holders of such Lender’s Securities or any other holder of a Lender’s debt obligations or representative of such holder or (z) to any Special Purpose Vehicle to which such Lender has granted an option pursuant to clause (i) above, in each case without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent; and provided, further, that no such assignment or grant shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in clause (i) above. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any such Special Purpose Vehicle, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Special Purpose Vehicle that has been granted an option pursuant to this clause (g) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation proceeding (such agreement shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations).

(h) Any Issuer may, with, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the prior written consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) at any time assign its rights and obligations hereunder to any other Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender by an instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Issuer and such Lender. If any Issuer ceases to be a Lender hereunder by virtue of any assignment made pursuant to this Section 11.2(h), then, as of the effective date of such cessation, such Issuer’s obligations to Issue Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.4 shall terminate and such Issuer shall be an Issuer hereunder only with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit issued prior to such date.

-137-

Section 11.3 Costs and Expenses

(a) The Borrower agrees upon demand to pay, or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all of the Administrative Agent’s reasonable external audit, appraisal, valuation, filing, document duplication and reproduction and investigation expenses and all of the Administrative Agent’s reasonable out-of-pocket legal expenses and for all other reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every type and nature (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of the Administrative Agent’s counsel, Bracewell LLP, local legal counsel, auditors, accountants, appraisers, printers, insurance and environmental advisors, and other consultants and agents, including any third party consultant engaged by the Administrative Agent to evaluate the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any of the following: (i) the Administrative Agent’s audit and investigation of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with the preparation, negotiation or execution of any Loan Document or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent’s periodic audits of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (which audit expenses shall be reimbursed only if conducted when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), as the case may be, (ii) the preparation, negotiation, execution or interpretation of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III, any Loan Document or any proposal letter or engagement letter issued in connection therewith, or the making of the Loans hereunder), (iii) the creation, perfection or protection of the Liens under any Loan Document (including any reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses for local counsel in various jurisdictions), (iv) the ongoing administration of this Agreement and the Loans and Letters of Credit, including consultation with attorneys in connection therewith and with respect to the Administrative Agent’s and the Collateral Agent’s rights and responsibilities hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (v) the protection, collection or enforcement of any Obligation or the enforcement of any Loan Document, (vi) the commencement, defense or intervention in any court proceeding relating in any way to the Obligations, any Loan Party, any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (vii) the response to, and preparation for, any subpoena or request for document production with which any Agent is served or deposition or other proceeding in which any Agent is called to testify, in each case, relating in any way to the Obligations, any Loan Party, any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (viii) any amendment, consent, waiver, assignment, restatement, or supplement to any Loan Document or the preparation, negotiation, and execution of the same; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any obligation under clauses (vi) and (vii) hereunder in connection with any action brought by one Secured Party against another Secured Party (except in its capacity as an Agent, if applicable). The Borrower also agrees upon demand to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by an Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder.

-138-

(b) The Borrower further agrees to pay or reimburse each Agent and each of the Lenders and Issuers upon demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees (including allocated costs of internal counsel and costs of settlement), incurred by such Agent, such Lenders or Issuers in connection with any of the following: (i) in enforcing any Loan Document or any security therefor or exercising or enforcing any other right or remedy available by reason of an Event of Default, (ii) in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work-out” or in any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, (iii) in commencing, defending or intervening in any litigation or in filing a petition, complaint, answer, motion or other pleadings in any legal proceeding relating to the Obligations, any Loan Party, any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries and related to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Loan Document or (iv) in taking any other action in or with respect to any suit or proceeding (bankruptcy or otherwise) described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any obligation under clause (iii) hereunder in connection with any action brought by one Secured Party against another Secured Party (except in its capacity as an Agent, if applicable).

(c) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 11.3 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, and the satisfaction or discharge of the Obligations

Section 11.4 Indemnities

(a) The Borrower agrees to and hereby does indemnify and hold harmless each Agent, each Lender and each Issuer and each of their respective Related Parties (including those retained in connection with the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III) and each of their respective successors and assigns (each such Person being an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, obligations, losses, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements and expenses of any kind or nature (including reasonable and customary fees, disbursements and expenses of financial and legal advisors to any such Indemnitee) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in connection with or arising out of any investigation, litigation or proceeding, whether or not any such Indemnitee is a party thereto and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, whether direct, indirect, or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or local law or other statutory regulation, securities or commercial law or regulation, or under common law or in equity, or on contract, tort or otherwise, in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Obligation, any Letter of Credit or any act, event or transaction related or attendant to any thereof, or the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit or in connection with any investigation of any potential matter covered hereby (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any obligation under this Section 11.4 to an

-139-

Indemnitee with respect to (i) any Indemnified Matter caused by or resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order or order of an arbitral tribunal and (ii) any action brought by one Secured Party against another Secured Party (except in its capacity as an Agent, if applicable). Without limiting the foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” include (i) all Environmental Liabilities and Costs arising from or connected with the past, present or future operations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries involving any property subject to a Collateral Document, or damage to real or personal property or natural resources or harm or injury alleged to have resulted from any Release of Contaminants on, upon or into such property or any contiguous real estate, (ii) any costs or liabilities incurred in connection with any Remedial Action concerning the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) any costs or liabilities incurred in connection with any Environmental Lien and (iv) any costs or liabilities incurred in connection with any other matter under any Environmental Law, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, (49 U.S.C. § 9601 et seq.) and applicable state property transfer laws, whether, with respect to any such matter, such Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor in interest to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or the owner, lessee or operator of any property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries by virtue of foreclosure, except, with respect to those matters referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, to the extent (x) incurred following foreclosure (or deed in lieu thereof) by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuer, or the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuer having become the successor in interest to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and (y) attributable solely to acts of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer or any agent on behalf of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer. This Section 11.4(a) shall not apply with respect to taxes other than any taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-tax claim.

(b) The Borrower shall and does hereby indemnify each Agent, each Lender and each Issuer for, and hold each Agent, each Lender and each Issuer harmless from and against, any and all claims for brokerage commissions, fees and other compensation made against any Agent, any Lender and any Issuer for any broker, finder or consultant with respect to any agreement, arrangement or understanding made by or on behalf of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee of service of any complaint or the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to an Indemnified Matter, such Indemnitee will notify the Borrower in writing of such complaint or of the commencement of such action or proceeding, but failure to so notify the Borrower will relieve the Borrower from the obligation to indemnify such Indemnitee only if and only to the extent that such failure results in the forfeiture by the Borrower of substantial rights and defenses that actually and materially prejudice the Borrower, and will not in any event relieve the Borrower from any other obligation or liability that the Borrower may have to any Indemnitee otherwise than in accordance with the provisions hereof. If the Borrower so elects following its acknowledgment of its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee, or if requested by such Indemnitee, the Borrower will assume

-140-

the defense of such action or proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee and the payment of the fees and disbursements of such counsel. In the event, however, such Indemnitee reasonably determines in its judgment that having common counsel would present such counsel with a conflict of interest or if the defendants in or targets of any such action or proceeding include an Indemnitee and the Borrower and such Indemnitee reasonably concludes that there may be legal defenses available to it or other Indemnitees that are different from or in addition to those available to the Borrower, or if the Borrower fails to assume the defense of the action or proceeding or to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee in a timely manner, then such Indemnitee may employ separate counsel to represent or defend it in any such action or proceeding and the Borrower will pay the reasonable and customary fees and disbursements of such counsel; provided, however, that the Borrower will not be required to pay the fees and disbursements of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) for such Indemnitee in any jurisdiction in any single action or proceeding. In any action or proceeding the defense of which the Borrower assumes, the Indemnitee will have the right to participate in such litigation and to retain its own counsel at such Indemnitee’s own expense.

(d) The Borrower agrees that any indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this Section 11.4) or any other Loan Document shall (i) survive payment in full of the Obligations and (ii) inure to the benefit of any Person that was at any time an Indemnitee under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Section 11.5 Limitation of Liability

The Borrower agrees that no Indemnitee shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective equity holders or creditors for or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and in the other Loan Documents, except for direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings)) determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees (for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries) not to sue upon any such claim for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

Section 11.6 Right of Set-off

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and each Affiliate of any of them is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the Obligations now or

-141-

hereafter existing whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and even though such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or its respective Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. In the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.20 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender under this Section 11.6 are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender may have.

Section 11.7 Sharing of Payments, Etc.

(a) (i) Subject to Section 2.13(f), if any Lender obtains any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off or otherwise) of the Loans owing to it, any interest thereon, fees in respect thereof or other Obligations hereunder (other than payments pursuant to Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 or fees paid to any Lender in connection with such Lender consenting to any amendment, waiver or consent to any Loan Document) in excess of its Ratable Portion of all payments of such Obligations obtained by all the Lenders, except as the result of a refinancing of the Revolving Commitments, such Lender (each, a “Purchasing Lender”) shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders (each, a “Selling Lender”) such participations in their Loans or other Obligations as shall be necessary to cause such Purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them.

(ii) Except as expressly provided otherwise with respect to Defaulting Lenders, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of the Revolving Commitment Fees, each reduction of the Revolving Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments (or, if Revolving Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans). Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount.

(b) If all or any portion of any payment received by a Purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Purchasing Lender, such purchase from each applicable Selling Lender shall be rescinded and such Selling Lender shall repay to the Purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an

-142-

amount equal to such Selling Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Selling Lender’s required repayment in relation to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the Purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered.

(c) The Borrower agrees that any Purchasing Lender so purchasing a participation from a Selling Lender pursuant to this Section 11.7 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Purchasing Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 11.8 Notices, Etc.

All notices, demands, requests and other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be given in writing, or, if consented to by the Administrative Agent, by any telecommunication device capable of creating a written record (including electronic mail), and addressed to the party to be notified as follows:

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective Related Parties, to any insurance broker, and to any provider of credit protection (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party hereto, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations or (C) any Special Purpose Vehicle that is a grantee of any option described in Section 11.2(g) or to any pledgee referred to in Section 11.2(f) or (g), (vii) with the consent of the Borrower or (viii) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 11.18 or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 11.18 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers acknowledges that (a) the Information may include MNPI concerning the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be and (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of such MNPI.

-147-

Section 11.19 Judgment Currency

(a) If, for the purposes of obtaining or enforcing any judgment or award in any court, or for making or filing a claim or proof, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in any currency (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, Administrative Agent could purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency in New York, New York on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which any such judgment, or any relevant part thereof, is given.

(b) The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due from it to any Agent or Lender hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment or award in such Other Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Agent or Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency such Agent or Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency; if the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due such Agent or Lender in the Original Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Agent or Lender against such loss, and if the Original Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to such Agent or Lender in the Original Currency, such Agent or Lender shall remit such excess to the Borrower.

Section 11.20 Severability

If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.20, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or any Issuer, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 11.21 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto

-148-

acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and (b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable, (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

Section 11.22 Interest Rate Limitation

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 11.23 Amendment and Restatement

It is the intention of the Borrower, the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuers, and such parties hereby agree, from and after the Effective Date, that this Agreement amends and restates the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety, and that (a) such amendment and restatement shall operate to renew, amend and modify certain of the rights and obligations of the parties under the Existing Credit Agreement as provided herein, but shall not act as a novation thereof, and (b) the Liens securing the “Obligations” under and as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement shall not be extinguished, but shall be carried forward and shall secure such Obligations as renewed, amended, restated, and modified hereby. From and after the Effective Date, all references to the “Credit Agreement” or otherwise to the Existing Credit Agreement contained in any Loan Document shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement.

FORM OF SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED GLOBAL INTERCOMPANY NOTE

New York, New York

[ ], 20[ ]

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, McDermott International, Inc., a Panamanian corporation (the “Borrower”), and each of the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries which is a party (each, a “Payor”) to this Second Amended and Restated Global Intercompany Note (this “Intercompany Note”), hereby unconditionally promises to pay on demand to the Borrower and each of its Affiliates which is a party to this Intercompany Note as a payee (each, a “Payee”) at such place as such Payee may direct in writing, the principal amount of this Intercompany Note, determined as described below, together with interest thereon at the rate per annum as shall be agreed upon from time to time by any Payor and any Payee.

This Intercompany Note is the Global Intercompany Note referred to in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated June 30, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrower, the Lenders, the Issuers and Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank as administrative agent for the Lenders and the Issuers (in such capacity, and together with its successors, the “Administrative Agent”) and collateral agent for the Secured Parties (in such capacity, and together with its successors, the “Collateral Agent”). Terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

Each Payee by accepting or executing this Intercompany Note agrees that the indebtedness evidenced by this Intercompany Note is subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of all Obligations and that such subordination is for the benefit of and enforceable by the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent under the Pledge and Security Agreement. Upon any payment or distribution of the assets of the Borrower to creditors upon a total or partial liquidation or a total or partial dissolution of the Borrower or in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Borrower or its property, (i) the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of the Obligations before any Payee shall be entitled to receive any payment hereunder, and (ii) until the Obligations are paid in full in cash, any payment or distribution to which any Payee would be entitled but for this paragraph shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, to holders of the Obligations as their interests may appear.

Each Payor may pay, and each Payee may receive payment of, the principal or interest evidenced by this Intercompany Note; provided, that (i) no Payor may pay the principal of or interest on this Intercompany Note at any time that an Event of Default under clauses (a), (b) or (f) of Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing unless the Payee is the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor, (ii) no Payor that is a Loan Party may pay the principal of or interest on this Intercompany Note at any time that an Event of Default has

G-1

occurred and is continuing unless the Payee is a Loan Party and (iii) no Payor that is the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may pay the principal of or interest on this Intercompany Note to any Affiliate of the Borrower (other than the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) in violation of Section 8.5(e) of the Credit Agreement. If any payment or distribution is made to any Payee that because of this paragraph should not have been made to it or which such Payee is otherwise not entitled to retain under the provisions of this paragraph, such Payee shall hold it in trust for holders of the Obligations and pay it over to the Collateral Agent on their behalf as their interests may appear.

The aggregate principal amount of this Intercompany Note at any time shall be equal to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all loans and extensions of credit to any Payor by any Payee, as adjusted on a regular basis to reflect any payments made by any Payor in respect of the principal of this Intercompany Note, any additional advances to any Payor from any Payee or any accrued interest which is added to the principal amount hereof in accordance with the terms hereof, in each case, as reflected on the books and records of the applicable Payee. Subject to the third and fourth paragraphs of this Intercompany Note (the “Subordination Provision”), loans hereunder may be prepaid at the option of the Payor. Principal not paid or prepaid pursuant to the terms hereof shall be payable on the date that is one year after the [Extended Maturity Date].

Subject to the Subordination Provision, payments of interest, if any, on this Intercompany Note shall be payable in the manner separately agreed by the Payor and the Payee.

Subject to the Subordination Provision, this Intercompany Note shall also be payable in full or in part pursuant to a written demand to a Payor (a “Demand”) from a Payee or, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent, at which time the Payor shall make all payments of the amounts so demanded to the account designated in the Demand on the date specified in the Demand. Following delivery of a Demand, all payments shall be made in accordance with instructions in the Demand. If payment hereunder is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for such payment shall be the immediately succeeding Business Day.

The obligations of each Payor under this Note shall be absolute and each Payor hereby irrevocably waives any right (whether arising by operation of law or otherwise) to any setoff, counterclaim or reduction of its obligations with respect to any amounts payable under this Intercompany Note based on any claims that such Payor has against each Payee, its affiliates or any other person.

Each Payor hereby waives presentment for payment, demands, notice of dishonor and protest of this Intercompany Note and further agrees that none of its terms or provisions may be waived, altered, modified or amended except as each Payee may consent in a writing duly signed for and on its behalf. No failure or delay on the part of any Payee in exercising any of its rights, powers or privileges hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

G-2

Each Payor also agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by each Payee or its successors and assigns in enforcing this Intercompany Note.

This Intercompany Note is binding upon each Payor and its successors and assigns and is for the benefit of each Payee and its successors and assigns, except that the Payor may not assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations under this Intercompany Note except in connection with a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement. Each Payor hereby acknowledges and consents to the assignment by each Payee that is a Grantor (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement) to the Collateral Agent of all of its right, title and interest in this Intercompany Note and all collateral security therefor in accordance with the Pledge and Security Agreement.

Each Payor and each Payee, by its acceptance hereof, agree for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent not to amend, modify or terminate the provisions of, or assign any of their respective rights or obligations under, this Intercompany Note without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent as long as any amounts are payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders or the Issuers under the Loan Documents.

EACH PAYOR AND EACH PAYEE HEREBY (A) AGREES THAT ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS INTERCOMPANY NOTE MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS INTERCOMPANY NOTE, EACH PAYOR AND EACH PAYEE HEREBY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND (B) IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, THAT ANY OF THEM MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH RESPECTIVE JURISDICTIONS. EACH PAYOR AND EACH PAYEE FURTHER WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INTERCOMPANY NOTE ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. EACH PAYOR AND EACH PAYEE IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING (BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID) OF COPIES OF SUCH PROCESS TO MCDERMOTT INTERNATIONAL, INC. (AT 757 NORTH ELDRIDGE PARKWAY, HOUSTON, TEXAS 77079). EACH PAYOR AND EACH PAYEE 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. NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT OR ANY

G-3

LENDER TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST ANY PAYOR OR ANY PAYEE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY PAYOR OR ANY PAYEE HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER FROM SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OF A JUDGMENT, EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE), SUCH PAYOR OR PAYEE (AS THE CASE MAY BE) HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

All payments made under this Intercompany Note to holders of the Obligations shall be made in Dollars, and, if for any reason any payment made hereunder is made in a currency other than Dollars (the “Other Currency”), then to the extent that the payment actually received by any Payee when converted into Dollars at the Rate of Exchange (as defined below) on the date of payment (or as soon thereafter as it is practicable for such Payee to purchase Dollars, or, in the case of the liquidation, insolvency, bankruptcy or analogous process of the applicable Payor, at the Rate of Exchange on the latest date permitted by applicable law for the determination of liabilities in such liquidation, insolvency, bankruptcy or analogous process) falls short of the amount due hereunder, such Payor shall, as a separate and independent obligation of such Payor, indemnify such Payee and hold such Payee harmless against the amount of such shortfall. As used in this Intercompany Note, the term “Rate of Exchange” means the rate at which the applicable Payee is able on the relevant date to purchase Dollars with the Other Currency and shall include any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, Dollars.

This Intercompany Note amends and restates (but does not novate or extinguish) that certain Amended and Restated Intercompany Note dated as of April 16, 2014, among certain of the Payees and Payors, as supplemented prior to the Effective Date.

THIS INTERCOMPANY NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HERETO SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAWS PROVISIONS.
