Section 2.1 Commitments.

(a) Commitment. Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make Advances to Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date; provided that the amount of any Lenders Advances outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the lesser of:

(i) such Lenders Commitment, and

(ii) such Lenders Applicable Percentage of an amount equal to the lesser of:

(A) the amount equal to the Borrowing Base as of such date less the sum of (1) the Letter of Credit Exposure at such time, plus (2) the principal amount of Swingline Advances outstanding at such time, and

(B) the amount equal to (1) the aggregate Commitments less (2) the sum of (x) the Letter of Credit Exposure at such time, plus (y) the principal amount of Swingline Advances outstanding at such time.

Each Borrowing shall (A) if comprised of Base Rate Advances be in an aggregate amount not less than $500,000 and in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, (B) if comprised of Eurocurrency Advances be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof, and (C) consist of Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments. Within the limits of each Lenders Commitment and subject to the further limits set forth above, Borrower may from time to time borrow, prepay pursuant to Section 2.7, and reborrow under this Section 2.1(a).

(b) Reduction of Commitments.

(i) Commitments. Borrower shall have the right, upon at least ten Business Days irrevocable written notice to Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused portion of the Commitments; provided that each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Any reduction or termination of the Commitments pursuant to this Section shall be permanent, with no obligation of the Lenders to reinstate

such Commitments, and the Unused Line Fees shall thereafter be computed on the basis of the Commitments, as so reduced.

(ii) Defaulting Lender. At any time when a Lender is then a Defaulting Lender, Borrower, at its election, may elect to terminate such Defaulting Lenders Commitment hereunder; provided that (A) such termination must be of all of the Defaulting Lenders Commitments, (B) Borrower shall pay all amounts owed by it to such Defaulting Lender in such Lenders capacity as a Lender under this Agreement and under the other Credit Documents (including principal of and interest on the Advances owed to such Defaulting Lender, accrued Unused Line Fees (subject to Section 2.18(a)(iii)), and letter of credit fees (subject to Section 2.18(a)(iii) but specifically excluding any amounts owing under Section 2.12 as result of such payment of such Advances) and shall deposit with Administrative Agent into the Cash Collateral Account cash collateral in the amount equal to such Defaulting Lenders ratable share of the Dollar Equivalent of the Letter of Credit Exposure (including any such portion thereof that has been reallocated pursuant to Section 2.18), (C) a Defaulting Lenders Commitments may be terminated by Borrower under this Section 2.1(b)(ii) if and only if at such time, Borrower has elected, or is then electing, to terminate the Commitments of all then existing Defaulting Lenders, and (D) no Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such election and termination. Upon written notice to the Defaulting Lender and Administrative Agent of Borrowers election to terminate a Defaulting Lenders Commitments pursuant to this clause (iv) and the payment and deposit of amounts required to be made by Borrower under clause (B) and (C) above, (1) such Defaulting Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder for all purposes except that such Lenders rights and obligations as a Lender under Section 2.11, 2.13, 2.15, 8.4 and 9.1 shall continue with respect to events and occurrences occurring before or concurrently with its ceasing to be a Lender hereunder, (2) such Defaulting Lenders Commitments shall be deemed terminated, and (3) such Defaulting Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder as a Lender except as to its obligations under Section 8.4 and 9.1 and any other obligations that expressly survive, which obligations shall continue with respect to events and occurrences occurring before or concurrently with its ceasing to be a Lender hereunder, provided that, any such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim by Borrower, Administrative Agent, Swingline Lenders, Issuing Lenders or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

(iii) All notices for a complete termination under clauses (i) through (ii) above delivered by Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or other events, in which case such notice may be revoked by Borrower (by notice to Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

(c) Reserves. Anything to the contrary in this Section 2.1 notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) at any time and upon at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice to Borrower in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion, to establish and increase or decrease Reserves against the Borrowing Base or the Commitments. The amount of any Reserve established by Administrative Agent shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition, other circumstance, or fact that is the basis for

such reserve and shall not be duplicative of any other reserve established and currently maintained or eligibility criteria; provided that circumstances, conditions, events or contingencies existing or arising prior to the Effective Date and, in each case, disclosed in writing in the field examination or appraisal conducted by Administrative Agent in connection herewith prior to the Effective Date, shall not be the basis for any establishment of any Reserves after the Effective Date, unless such circumstances, conditions, events or contingencies shall have changed in a material respect since the Effective Date (it being understood, however, that the forgoing shall not restrict or affect changes in Reserves by Administrative Agent solely by virtue of mathematical calculations of the amount of such Reserves). During such 3 Business Day period, (x) Administrative Agent shall, if requested, discuss any such Reserve or change with Borrower, (y) Borrower may take such action as may be required so that the event, condition or matter that is the basis for such Reserve or change no longer exists or exists in a manner that would result in the establishment of a lower Reserve or result in a lesser change, in each case, in a manner and to the extent reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and (z) Borrower shall not be permitted to borrow under this Agreement if such Borrowing would result in Deficiency after giving effect to the Reserve or change in question.

Section 2.2 Evidence of Indebtedness. The Advances made by each Lender, and the Swingline Advances made by each Swingline Lender, shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender or Swingline Lender and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Advances made by such Lenders and Swingline Lenders to Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the Register and corresponding accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender to Borrower made through Administrative Agent, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through Administrative Agent) the applicable Notes which shall evidence such Lenders Advances to Borrower in addition to such accounts or records. Upon the request of Swingline Lender to Borrower, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Swingline Lender a Swingline Note which shall evidence the Swingline Advances to Borrower in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender and Swingline Lender may attach schedules to such Notes and record thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, and maturity of its Advances and payments with respect thereto. In addition to the accounts and records referred to in the immediately preceding sentences, each Lender, each Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender (other than the respective Issuing Lenders) in respect of such matters, the Register and corresponding accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. In the event of any conflict among the accounts and records maintained by Administrative Agent, the accounts and records maintained by an Issuing Lender as to Letters of Credit issued by it, and the accounts and records of any other Lender in respect of such matters,

the Register and corresponding accounts and records of Issuing Lender shall control in the absence of manifest error.

Section 2.3 Letters of Credit.

(a) Commitment for Letters of Credit. Issuing Lender, the Lenders and Borrower agree that effective as of the Effective Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued and maintained under, and to be governed by the terms and conditions of, this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section, Issuing Lender agrees to, from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Business Day immediately preceding the Letter of Credit Termination Date, issue, increase or extend the expiration date of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars for the account of Borrower or a Guarantor. In any event, no Letter of Credit will be issued, increased, or extended:

(i) if such issuance, increase, or extension would cause (w) the Letter of Credit Exposure to exceed the Letter of Credit Maximum Amount, (x) the sum of the Outstandings to exceed the aggregate Commitments, (y) any Lenders Applicable Percentage of the Outstandings to exceed such Lenders Commitment, or (z) the Outstandings to exceed the Borrowing Base then in effect;

(ii) unless such Letter of Credit has an expiration date not later than the earlier of (A) one year after the issuance or extension and (B) the Letter of Credit Termination Date (unless cash collateralized); provided that, (1) if the Commitments are terminated in whole pursuant to Section 2.1(b), Borrower shall either (A) deposit into the applicable Cash Collateral Account cash in an amount equal to 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of the applicable Letter of Credit Exposure for the Letters of Credit which have an expiry date beyond such termination date or (B) provide a replacement letter of credit (or other security) reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender in an amount equal to 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of such Letter of Credit Exposure and (2) any such Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor (or shorter tenor) may expressly provide for an automatic extension of additional periods up to one additional year so long as such Letter of Credit expressly allows the Issuing Lender, at each such Persons sole discretion, to elect not to provide such extension; provided that, in any event, such automatic extension may not result in an expiration date that occurs after the Letter of Credit Termination Date (unless cash collateralized);

(iii) unless such Letter of Credit is (A) a standby letter of credit, or (B) with the consent of the Issuing Lender, a commercial letter of credit;

(iv) unless such Letter of Credit is in form and substance acceptable to Issuing Lender in each such Persons sole discretion;

(v) unless Borrower has delivered to Issuing Lender a completed and executed Letter of Credit Application; provided that, if the terms of any Letter of Credit

Application conflicts with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control;

(vi) unless such Letter of Credit is governed by (A) the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600, or (B) the ISP, in either case, including any subsequent revisions thereof approved by a Congress of the International Chamber of Commerce;

(vii) if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain Issuing Lender from issuing, increasing or extending such Letter of Credit, or any Legal Requirement applicable to Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance, increase or extension of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which Issuing Lender in good faith deems material to it;

(viii) if the issuance, increase or extension of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of Issuing Lender that are generally applicable to letters of credit;

(ix) if such Letter of Credit supports the obligations of any Person in respect of (A) a lease of real property to the extent that the face amount of such Letter of Credit exceeds the highest rent (including all rent-like charges) payable under such lease for a period of one year, or (B) an employment contract to the extent that the face amount of such Letter of Credit exceeds the highest compensation payable under such contract for a period of one year;

(x) any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless reallocation under Section 2.18 has occurred or Issuing Lender has entered into satisfactory arrangements with Borrower or such Lender to eliminate Issuing Lenders Fronting Exposure with respect to such Lender; or

(xi) during the period starting on the first Business Day after the receipt by Issuing Lender of notice from Administrative Agent or any Lender that any condition precedent contained in Section 3.2 is not satisfied and ending on the date all such conditions are satisfied or duly waived; provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, Issuing Lender may, but shall not be required to, determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied or waived in connection with any such issuance, increase or extension;

(b) Requesting Letters of Credit. Each Letter of Credit Extension shall be made pursuant to a Letter of Credit Application, or if applicable, amendments to such Letter of Credit Applications, given by Borrower to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Issuing Lender by telecopy or in writing not later than 12:00 noon (Atlanta, Georgia time) on the third Business Day before the proposed date of the Letter of Credit Extension. Each Letter of Credit Application, or if applicable, amendments to the Letter of Credit Applications, shall be fully completed and shall specify the information required therein. Each Letter of Credit Application, or if applicable, amendments to the Letter of Credit Applications, shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower.

(i) In accordance with the related Letter of Credit Application, Borrower with respect to a Letter of Credit, agrees to pay on demand to Administrative Agent on behalf of Issuing Lender an amount equal to any amount paid by Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit. Upon Issuing Lenders demand for payment under the terms of a Letter of Credit Application, Borrower may request that its obligations to Issuing Lender thereunder be satisfied with the proceeds of a Base Rate Advance under the Facility in the same amount with respect to any Letter of Credit, notwithstanding any minimum size or increment limitations on individual Advances. If Borrower does not make such request and does not otherwise make the payments demanded by Issuing Lender as required under this Agreement or the applicable Letter of Credit Application, then upon such notice by Issuing Lender to Administrative Agent (which notice is not required when Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent are the same Person), Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have requested such Advance in the same amount and in the same currency and the transfer of the proceeds thereof to satisfy Borrowers obligations to Issuing Lender. Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably authorizes, empowers, and directs the Lenders to make Base Rate Advances, to transfer the proceeds thereof to Issuing Lender in satisfaction of such obligations, and to record and otherwise treat such payments as a Base Rate Advance under the Facility to Borrower. Administrative Agent and each Applicable Lender may record and otherwise treat the making of such Borrowings as the making of a Borrowing to the Borrower under this Agreement as if requested by the Borrower. Nothing herein is intended to release any Borrowers obligations under any Letter of Credit Application, but only to provide an additional method of payment therefor. The making of any Borrowing under this Section 2.3(c) shall not constitute a cure or waiver of any Default or Event of Default, other than the payment Default or Event of Default which is satisfied by the application of the amounts deemed advanced hereunder, caused by Borrowers failure to comply with the provisions of this Agreement or the applicable Letter of Credit Application.

(ii) Each Lender (including each Lender acting as an Issuing Lender) shall, upon notice from Administrative Agent that Borrower has requested or is deemed to have requested an Advance pursuant to Section 2.6 and regardless of whether (A) the conditions in Section 3.2 have been met, (B) such notice complies with Section 2.6, or (C) a Default exists, make funds available in the applicable currency to Administrative Agent for the account of Issuing Lender in an amount equal to such Lenders Applicable Percentage of the amount of such Advance not later than 1:00 p.m. (Atlanta, Georgia,

time) on the Business Day specified in such notice by Administrative Agent, whereupon each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Advance under the Facility to Borrower in such amount. Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to Issuing Lender.

(iii) If any such Lender shall not have so made such Advance available to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.3, such Lender agrees to pay interest thereon for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid at the lesser of (A) the Federal Funds Rate for such day for the first three days and thereafter the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Advances and (B) the Maximum Rate. Whenever, at any time after Administrative Agent has received from any Lender such Lenders Advance, Administrative Agent receives any payment on account thereof, Administrative Agent will pay to such Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lenders Advance was outstanding and funded), which payment shall be subject to repayment by such Lender if such payment received by Administrative Agent is required to be returned. Each Lenders obligation to make the Advances pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (1) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or any other Person may have against Issuing Lender, Administrative Agent or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (2) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or the termination of the Commitments; (3) any breach of this Agreement by Borrower or any other Lender; or (4) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(iv) If at any time, the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated while any Letter of Credit Exposure is outstanding, then each Lender, at the sole option of Issuing Lender, shall fund its participation in such Letters of Credit in an amount equal to such Lenders Applicable Percentage of the unpaid amount of Borrowers payment obligations under drawn Letters of Credit. Issuing Lender shall notify Administrative Agent, and in turn, Administrative Agent shall notify each such applicable Lender of the amount of such participation, and such Lender will transfer to Administrative Agent for the account of Issuing Lender on the next Business Day following such notice, in Same Day Funds, the amount of such participation. At any time after Issuing Lender has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender funding of its participation in respect of such payment in accordance with this clause (iv), if Administrative Agent receives for the account of Issuing Lender any payment in respect of the related Letter of Credit Exposure or interest thereon (whether directly from Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of cash collateral applied thereto by Administrative Agent), Administrative Agent shall distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by Administrative Agent.

(v) If any payment received by Administrative Agent for the account of any Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.3(c) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 9.14 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Issuing Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to Administrative

Agent for the account of Issuing Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(d) Participations. Upon the date of the issuance or increase of a Letter of Credit or the deemed issuance of the Existing Letters of Credit under Section 2.3(a), Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold to each other Lender and each other Lender shall have been deemed to have purchased from Issuing Lender a participation in the related Letter of Credit Obligations equal to such Lenders Applicable Percentage at such date, such sale and purchase shall otherwise be in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Issuing Lender shall promptly notify each such participant Lender by telex, telephone, or telecopy of each Letter of Credit issued or increased and the actual dollar amount of such Lenders participation in such Letter of Credit.

(e) Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of Borrower under this Agreement in respect of each Letter of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, notwithstanding the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Documents;

(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Letter of Credit Documents;

(iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Restricted Entity may have at any time against any beneficiary or transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Lender, any Lender or any other person or entity, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or in any Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction;

(iv) any statement or any other document presented under such 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 to the extent the Issuing Lender would not be liable therefor pursuant to the following subsection (g);

(v) payment by any Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or (vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that nothing contained in this subsection (e) shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any remedies of Borrower in connection with the Letters of Credit.

(f) Prepayments of Letters of Credit. In the event that any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding or shall be drawn and not reimbursed after the Maturity Date, Borrower

shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Exposure allocable to such Letter of Credit to be held in the Cash Collateral Account and applied in accordance with subsection (h) below.

(g) Liability of Issuing Lender. Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither Issuing Lender nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (i) the use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (ii) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (iii) payment by Issuing Lender against presentation of documents which do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the relevant Letter of Credit; or (iv) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit (INCLUDING ISSUING LENDERS OWN NEGLIGENCE), except that Borrower shall have a claim against Issuing Lender, and Issuing Lender shall be liable to, and shall promptly pay to, Borrower, to the extent of any direct, as opposed to consequential, damages suffered by Borrower which a court in a final, non-appealable finding rules were caused by Issuing Lenders willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Issuing Lender 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.

(h) Cash Collateral - General.

(i) If Borrower is required to deposit funds in the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to the terms hereof, then Borrower and Administrative Agent shall establish the Cash Collateral Account and Borrower shall execute any documents and agreements, including Administrative Agents standard form assignment of deposit accounts, that Administrative Agent reasonably requests in connection therewith to establish the Cash Collateral Account and grant Administrative Agent a first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Liens described in Section 6.2(h)) in such account and the funds therein. Borrower hereby pledges to Administrative Agent and grants Administrative Agent a security interest in the Cash Collateral Account, whenever established, all funds held in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time, and all proceeds thereof as security for the payment of the Secured Obligations.

(ii) If a Defaulting Lender deposits funds in a deposit account with Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.3(h)(ii) and Section 2.3(i), then such Lender and Administrative Agent shall establish such Cash Collateral Account and such Lender shall execute any documents and agreements, including Administrative Agents standard form assignment of deposit accounts, that Administrative Agent requests in connection therewith to establish such account and grant Administrative Agent a first priority security interest in such account and the funds therein. Such Defaulting Lender hereby pledges to Administrative Agent and grants Administrative Agent a security interest in such collateral account, whenever established, all funds held

in such account from time to time, and all proceeds thereof as security for the payment of the Letter of Credit Obligations of Borrower to be applied as provided in Section 2.3(i) below.

(iii) Funds held in the Cash Collateral Accounts shall be held as cash collateral for obligations with respect to Letters of Credit in the case of the Cash Collateral Account. Such funds shall be promptly applied by Administrative Agent at the request of Issuing Lender to any reimbursement or other obligations under the applicable Letters of Credit that exist or occur. To the extent that any surplus funds are held in the Cash Collateral Account above the Letter of Credit Exposure, during the existence of an Event of Default Administrative Agent may (A) hold such surplus funds in the Cash Collateral Account as cash collateral for the Secured Obligations or (B) apply such surplus funds to any Secured Obligations in any manner directed by the Majority Lenders. If no Default exists and no Deficiency exists, Administrative Agent shall release to Borrower at Borrowers written request any funds held in the Cash Collateral Account above the amounts required by Section 2.3(i), subject to the requirements of Section 2.3(i) below and Section 2.18(a)(ii).

(iv) Funds held in the Cash Collateral Account shall be invested in Liquid Investments maintained with, and under the sole dominion and control of, Administrative Agent or in another investment if mutually agreed upon by Borrower and Administrative Agent, but Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to make any other investment of the funds therein. Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Cash Collateral Accounts and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which Administrative Agent accords its own property, it being understood that Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any such funds.

(i) Defaulting Lender Cash Collateral. If at any time, a Defaulting Lender exists hereunder, then, at the request of Issuing Lender, Borrower shall fully Cash Collateralize Issuing Lenders Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.3(i) or Section 2.18 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lenders obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Issuing Lenders Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.3(i) following (a) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (b) the determination by Administrative Agent and Issuing Lender that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, (1) the Person providing Cash Collateral and Issuing Lender may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations, (2) to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest

granted pursuant to the Credit Documents, and (3) to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by Borrower, during the existence of an Event of Default the application of such Cash Collateral shall be subject to Section 2.3(h)(iii) and (iv) above, the second sentence in this Section 2.3(i) and Section 2.18(a)(ii).

(j) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, any Restricted Subsidiary, Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse Issuing Lender hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit issued under the Facility by Issuing Lender. Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of its Restricted Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of Borrower, and that Borrowers business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Restricted Subsidiaries.

Section 2.4 Swingline Advances.

(a) Facility. On the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Swingline Lender agrees, from time-to-time on any Business Day during the period from the date of this Agreement until the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, to make Swingline Advances to Borrower which shall be due and payable on the Swingline Payment Date, bearing interest at the Adjusted Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances; provided (i) that after giving effect to such Swingline Advance, (A) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swingline Advances advanced by Swingline Lender shall not exceed the Swingline Sublimit Amount, (B) the Outstandings shall not exceed the aggregate Commitments, (C) no Lenders Applicable Percentage of the Outstandings shall exceed such Lenders Commitment, and (D) the Outstandings shall not exceed the Borrowing Base at such time; (ii) no Swingline Advance shall be made by Swingline Lender if the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 have not been met as of the date of such Swingline Advance, it being agreed by Borrower that the giving of the applicable Notice of Borrowing and the acceptance by Borrower of the proceeds of such Swingline Advance shall constitute a representation and warranty by Borrower that on the date of such Swingline Advance such conditions have been met; and (iii) each Swingline Advance shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $100,000.00 and in integral multiples of $50,000.00 in excess thereof. Each Lender shall have the obligation to purchase and fund risk participations in the Swingline Advances and to refinance Swingline Advances as provided below.

(b) Evidence of Indebtedness. The indebtedness of Borrower to the Swingline Lenders resulting from Swingline Advances shall be evidenced as set forth in Section 2.2.

(c) Prepayment. Within the limits expressed in this Agreement, amounts advanced pursuant to Section 2.4(a) may from time to time be borrowed, prepaid without penalty, and reborrowed. If the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Advances advanced by Swingline Lender ever exceeds the Swingline Sublimit Amount, Borrower shall, upon receipt of written notice of such condition from Swingline Lender and to the extent of such excess, prepay to Swingline Lender outstanding principal of the Swingline Advances such that such excess is eliminated.

(d) Refinancing of Swingline Advances.

(i) With respect to the Swingline Advances and the interest, fees, and other amounts owed by Borrower to Swingline Lender in connection with the Swingline Advances, Borrower agrees to pay to Swingline Lender such amounts when due and payable to Swingline Lender under the terms of this Agreement. If Borrower does not pay to Swingline Lender any such amounts when due and payable to Swingline Lender, Swingline Lender may upon notice to Administrative Agent request the satisfaction of such obligation by the making of a Borrowing in the amount of any such amounts not paid when due and payable. Upon such request and, in any event, regardless of whether a Swingline Payment Date has occurred, on a weekly basis as determined by Administrative Agent or on a more frequent basis if so determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, Borrower shall be deemed to have requested the making of a Borrowing in the amount of such obligation and the transfer of the proceeds thereof to Swingline Lender. Such Borrowing shall bear interest based upon the Adjusted Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances. Administrative Agent shall promptly forward notice of such Borrowing to Borrower and the Lenders, and each Lender shall, regardless of whether (A) the conditions in Section 3.2 have been met, (B) such notice complies with Section 2.6, or (C) a Default exists, make available such Lenders ratable share of such Borrowing to Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver the proceeds thereof to Swingline Lender for application to such amounts owed to Swingline Lender. Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably authorizes, empowers, and directs Swingline Lender to make such requests for Borrowings on behalf of Borrower in accordance with this Section, and the Lenders to make Advances to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Swingline Lender in satisfaction of such obligations. Administrative Agent and each Lender may record and otherwise treat the making of such Borrowings as the making of a Borrowing to Borrower under this Agreement as if requested by Borrower. Nothing herein is intended to release Borrowers obligations with respect to Swingline Advances, but only to provide an additional method of payment therefor. The making of any Borrowing under this Section 2.4(d) shall not constitute a cure or waiver of any Default or Event of Default, other than the payment Default or Event of Default which is satisfied by the application of the amounts deemed advanced hereunder, or caused by Borrowers failure to comply with the provisions of this Agreement.

(ii) If at any time, the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated while any Swingline Advance is outstanding, each Lender, at the sole option of Swingline Lender, shall either (A) notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the Commitments, make an Advance as a Base Rate Advance, or (B) be deemed, without further action by any Person, to have purchased from the Swingline Lender a participation in such Swingline Advance, in either case in an amount equal to the product of such Lenders Applicable Percentage times the outstanding aggregate principal balance of the Swingline Advances made by Swingline Lender. Swingline Lender shall notify Administrative Agent, and in turn, Administrative Agent shall notify each such Lender of the amount of such Advance or participation, and such Lender will transfer to Administrative Agent for the account of Swingline Lender on the next Business Day following such notice, in Same Day Funds, the amount of such Advance or participation.

(iii) If any such Lender shall not have so made its Advance or its percentage participation available to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.4, such Lender agrees to pay interest thereon for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid at the lesser of (A) the Federal Funds Rate for such day for the first three days and thereafter the interest rate applicable to the Advance and (B) the Maximum Rate. Whenever, at any time after Administrative Agent has received from any Lender such Lenders Advance or participating interest in a Swingline Advance, Administrative Agent receives any payment on account thereof, Administrative Agent will pay to such Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lenders Advance or participating interest was outstanding and funded), which payment shall be subject to repayment by such Lender if such payment received by Administrative Agent is required to be returned. Each Lenders obligation to make the Advance or purchase such participating interests pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (1) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or any other Person may have against Swingline Lender, Administrative Agent or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (2) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or the termination of the Commitments; (3) any breach of this Agreement by Borrower or any other Lender; or (4) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. Each Swingline Advance, once so participated by any Lender, shall cease to be a Swingline Advance with respect to that amount for purposes of this Agreement, but shall continue to be an Advance.

(e) Method of Borrowing. Except as provided in clause (c) above, each request for a Swingline Advance shall be made pursuant to telephone notice to Swingline Lender given no later than 1:00 p.m. (Atlanta, Georgia time) (or such later time as accepted by Swingline Lender) on the date of the proposed Swingline Advance, promptly confirmed by a completed and executed Notice of Borrowing telecopied or facsimiled to Administrative Agent and Swingline Lender. Swingline Lender will promptly make the Swingline Advance available to Borrower at Borrowers account with Administrative Agent or as otherwise directed by Borrower with written notice to Administrative Agent.

(f) Interest for Account of Swingline Lender. Swingline Lender shall be responsible for invoicing Borrower for interest on the Swingline Advances (provided that any failure of Swingline Lender to provide such invoice shall not release Borrower from its obligation to pay such interest). Until each Lender funds its Advance or risk participation pursuant to clause (d) above, interest in respect of each Lenders Applicable Percentage of the Swingline Advances shall be solely for the account of Swingline Lender.

(g) Payments Directly to Swingline Lender. Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swingline Advances directly to Swingline Lender.

(h) Adjustments to Swingline Sublimit Amounts. If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender hereunder, at Borrowers option and with at least one Business Days prior written notice to Administrative Agent and Swingline Lender, Borrower may decrease the

Swingline Sublimit Amount to such lesser amount notified to Administrative Agent and Swingline Lender. If such election is made, then in the event that Administrative Agent, Borrower and Swingline Lender agree that all existing Defaulting Lenders have adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lenders to be Defaulting Lenders, the Swingline Sublimit Amount shall automatically, without further notice or action to be taken by any party hereto, be increased back up to the Swingline Sublimit Amount that was in effect prior to Borrowers election made pursuant to this clause (h).

Section 2.5 [Reserved].

Section 2.6 Borrowings; Procedures and Limitations.

(a) Notice. Each Borrowing shall be made pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing (other than the Borrowings to be made on the Effective Date and Swingline Borrowings) and given by Borrower to Administrative Agent not later than (i) 12:00 noon (Atlanta, Georgia time) on the third Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Eurocurrency Advance; and (ii) 10:00 a.m. (Atlanta, Georgia time) on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Base Rate Advance. Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice on the day of receipt of a timely Notice of Borrowing by facsimile; provided however that Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders hereby waive the requirement in this Section 2.6(a) with respect to the initial Borrowings to be made on the Effective Date. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be by telephone or facsimile, and if by telephone, confirmed promptly in writing, specifying (i) the requested date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the requested Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing, and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Advances, the Interest Period for such Advances. In the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Advances, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the applicable interest rate under Section 2.10. Each Lender shall before 1:00 p.m. (Atlanta, Georgia time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing, make available for the account of its Lending Office to Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.10, or such other location as Administrative Agent may specify by notice to the applicable Lenders, in Same Day Funds, such Lenders Applicable Percentage of such Borrowing. Promptly upon Administrative Agents receipt of such funds (but in any event not later than 3:00 p.m. (Atlanta, Georgia time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing) and provided that the applicable conditions set forth in Article VIII have been satisfied, Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower at its account with Administrative Agent.

(b) Conversions and Continuations. In order to elect to Convert or continue Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing under this Section, the Applicable Borrower shall deliver an irrevocable Notice of Conversion or Continuation to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agents office no later than (A) 10:00 a.m. (Atlanta, Georgia time) on the Business Day of the proposed Conversion date in the case of a Conversion of such Advances to Base Rate Advances and (B) 12:00 noon (Atlanta, Georgia time) at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed Conversion or continuation date in the case of a Conversion to, or a continuation of, Eurocurrency Advances. Each such Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be in writing or by telephone or facsimile, and if by telephone, confirmed promptly in writing, specifying (A) the requested Conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day),

(B) the Borrowing amount and Type of the Advances to be Converted or continued, (C) whether a Conversion or continuation is requested, and if a Conversion, into what Type of Advances, and (D) in the case of a Conversion to, or a continuation of, Eurocurrency Advances, the requested Interest Period. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation under this paragraph, Administrative Agent shall provide each Lender with a copy thereof and, in the case of a Conversion to or a continuation of Eurocurrency Advances, notify each Lender of the applicable interest rate under Section 2.10. For purposes other than the conditions set forth in Section 3.2, the portion of Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing that are Converted to Advances of another Type shall constitute a new Borrowing.

(i) Each Borrowing shall (A) be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof in case of Eurocurrency Advances and in an aggregate amount not less than $500,000 and in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof in case of Base Rate Advances, (B) consist of Advances of the same Type made, Converted or continued on the same day by the Lenders according to their Applicable Percentage, and (C) denominated only in Dollars.

(ii) At no time shall there be more than six Interest Periods applicable to outstanding Eurocurrency Advances under the Facilities.

(iii) Borrower may not select Eurocurrency Advances for any Borrowing to be made, Converted or continued if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(iv) If any Lender shall, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of any Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Advances, notify Administrative Agent and the Applicable Borrower that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Legal Requirement makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Lending Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to make Eurocurrency Advances or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Advances, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or take deposits of, Dollars in the applicable interbank market, then (A) (1) such Lenders Applicable Percentage of the amount of such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Advance of such Lender, (2) such Base Rate Advance shall be considered part of the same Borrowing and interest on such Base Rate Advance shall be due and payable at the same time that interest on the Eurocurrency Advances comprising the remainder of such Borrowing shall be due and payable, and (3) any obligation of such Lender to make, continue, or Convert to, Eurocurrency Advances in the affected currency or currencies, including in connection with such requested Borrowing, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies Administrative Agent and the Applicable Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist; and (B) such Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office if the making of

such designation (1) would eliminate the restriction on such Lender described above, and (2) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.

(v) If Administrative Agent is unable to determine the Eurocurrency Rate for Eurocurrency Advances comprising any requested Borrowing, the right of the Borrower to select Eurocurrency Advances for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be made, Converted or continued as a Base Rate Advance.

(vi) If the Majority Lenders shall, at least one Business Day before the date of any requested Borrowing, notify Administrative Agent that the Eurocurrency Rate for Eurocurrency Advances comprising such Borrowing will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or funding their respective Eurocurrency Advances, as the case may be, for such Borrowing, then Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders and the right of the Borrower to select Eurocurrency Advances for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Advance.

(vii) If Borrower shall fail to select the continuation of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Advance in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of Interest Period in Section 1.1 and paragraph (a) above, Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the applicable Lenders and such affected Advances will be Converted into Base Rate Advances at the end of Interest Period then in effect. If Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Advance in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of Interest Period in Section 1.1 and paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month.

(viii) Swingline Advances may not be Converted or continued.

(d) Notices Irrevocable. Each Notice of Borrowing delivered by Borrower hereunder, including its deemed request for borrowing made under Section 2.3(c) or Section 2.4, shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower.

(e) Lender Obligations Several. The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing. No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

(f) Funding by Lenders; Administrative Agents Reliance. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any

Borrowing of Eurocurrency Advances, or prior to noon on the date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Advances, that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lenders share of such Borrowing, Administrative Agent may assume that a Lender has made its share available in accordance with and at the time required in Section 2.6 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of Borrowing available to Administrative Agent, then such Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrower, the Adjusted Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the lesser of (i) the Federal Funds Rate for such day and (ii) the Maximum Rate. If such Lender shall repay to Administrative Agent such corresponding amount and interest as provided above, such corresponding amount so repaid shall constitute such Lenders Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement even though not made on the same day as the other Advances comprising such Borrowing. Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Administrative Agent. A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (f) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(g) Protective Advances and Optional Overadvances.

(i) Any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document notwithstanding (but subject to Section 2.6(g)(iv)), at any time (A) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, or (B) that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 are not satisfied, Administrative Agent hereby is authorized by Borrower and the Lenders, from time to time, in Administrative Agents sole discretion, to make Advances to, or for the benefit of Borrower, on behalf of the applicable Lenders, that Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, deems necessary or desirable (1) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or (2) to enhance the likelihood of repayment of the Obligations (other than the Banking Services Obligations) (the Advances described in this Section 2.6(g)(i) shall be referred to as Protective Advances). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate amount of all Protective Advances outstanding at any one time shall not exceed 10% of the Commitments (unless Majority Lenders otherwise agree to a higher amount (it being understood that Borrowers agreement to such higher amount shall not be required)). Administrative Agents authorization to make Protective Advances may be revoked at any time by the Majority Lenders delivering written notice of such revocation to Administrative Agent. Any such revocation shall be effective prospectively upon Administrative Agents receipt thereof.

(ii) Any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document notwithstanding, the Lenders hereby authorize Administrative Agent or Swingline Lenders, as applicable, and Administrative Agent or Swingline Lenders, as applicable, may, but is not obligated to, knowingly and intentionally, continue to make Advances (including Swingline Advances) to Borrower (such Advances and Swingline

Advances, the Intentional Overadvances) notwithstanding that a Deficiency exists or would be created thereby, so long as with respect to any such Advances, after giving effect to any such Advances (including Swingline Advances), the Outstandings do not exceed the Borrowing Base by more than 10% of the Commitments (unless Majority Lenders otherwise agree to a higher amount) and do not exceed the Commitments (provided, that Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) make Intentional Overadvances in excess of the limitations set forth in this subsection (ii) if Administrative Agent believes that the failure to do so could result in imminent harm to the Collateral or its value). Administrative Agent shall provide notice of Intentional Overadvances to Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter. In any event, if any Intentional Overadvance permitted pursuant to this Section 2.6(g)(ii), remains outstanding for more than 30 days, unless otherwise agreed to by Majority Lenders, Borrower shall immediately repay Advances in an amount sufficient to eliminate all such Intentional Overadvances. The foregoing provisions are meant for the benefit of the Lenders and Administrative Agent and are not meant for the benefit of Borrower. Administrative Agents and Swingline Lenders authorization to make Intentional Overadvances may be revoked at any time by Majority Lenders delivering written notice of such revocation to Administrative Agent. Any such revocation shall become effective prospectively upon Administrative Agents receipt thereof.

(iii) Each Protective Advance and each Intentional Overadvance (each, an Extraordinary Advance) shall be deemed to be an Advance hereunder, except that no Extraordinary Advance shall be eligible to be a Eurocurrency Advance. Prior to settlement of any Extraordinary Advance, all payments with respect thereto, including interest thereon, shall be payable to Administrative Agent solely for its own account. Each Lender shall be obligated to settle with Administrative Agent for the amount of such Lenders Applicable Percentage of any Extraordinary Advance. The Extraordinary Advances shall be repayable on demand, secured by Administrative Agents Liens, constitute Obligations hereunder, and bear interest at the rate applicable from time to time to Advances that are Base Rate Advances. The provisions of this Section 2.6(g) are for the exclusive benefit of Administrative Agent, Swingline Lenders, and the Lenders and are not intended to benefit Borrower (or any other Credit Party) in any way.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Credit Document to the contrary, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.6(g)(ii), no Extraordinary Advance may be made by Administrative Agent if such Extraordinary Advance would cause the aggregate Outstandings to exceed the Commitments or any Lenders Applicable Percentage of the Outstandings to exceed such Lenders Commitment; provided that Administrative Agent may make Extraordinary Advances in excess of the foregoing limitations so long as such Extraordinary Advances that cause the aggregate Outstandings to exceed the Commitments or a Lenders Applicable Percentage of the Outstandings to exceed such Lenders Commitment are for Administrative Agents sole and separate account and not for the account of any Lender. No Lender shall have an obligation to settle with Administrative Agent for such Extraordinary Advances that cause the aggregate Outstandings to exceed the Commitments or a Lenders Applicable Percentage of the Outstandings to exceed such Lenders Commitment.

Section 2.7 Prepayments.

(a) Right to Prepay. Borrower shall not have any right to prepay any principal amount of any Advance except as provided in this Section 2.7. All notices given pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be irrevocable and binding upon Borrower; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.1(b), then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.1(b)(iii). Each payment of any Advance pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be made in a manner such that all Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing are paid in whole or ratably in part other than Advances owing to a Defaulting Lender as provided in Section 2.18.

If any such notice is given, Borrower shall prepay Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount specified in such notice, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.12 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date; provided that (A) each optional prepayment of Eurocurrency Advances shall be in a minimum amount not less than $1,000,000 and in multiple integrals of $500,000 in excess thereof, (B) each optional prepayment of Base Rate Advances shall be in a minimum amount not less than $500,000 and in multiple integrals of $100,000 in excess thereof and (C) each optional prepayment of Swingline Advances shall be in a minimum amount not less than $100,000 and in multiple integrals of $50,000 in excess thereof.

(c) Mandatory. On any date that a Deficiency exists as reflected in the Borrowing Base Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 5.2(d) or as notified to Borrower by Administrative Agent (with such calculation set forth in reasonable detail which shall be conclusive absent manifest error), Borrower shall, within three Business Days, to the extent of such deficiency, first prepay to Swingline Lender the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Advances, second prepay to the Lenders on a pro rata basis the outstanding principal amount of the Advances (other than Swingline Advances); and third make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide cash collateral in the amount of such excess for the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure (which deposits may be subsequently released to the extent provided in Section 2.3(h)).

(d) Interest; Costs. Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.12 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date.

(b) Swingline Advances. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to Swingline Lender (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swingline Advances on each Swingline Payment Date, and (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swingline Advances outstanding on the Maturity Date.

Section 2.9 Fees.

(a) Unused Line Fees. Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender an Unused Line Fee on the average daily amount by which such Lenders Commitment exceeds such Lenders outstanding Advances plus such Lenders Applicable Percentage of the Letter of Credit Exposure at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Unused Line Fee Percentage for such period. The Unused Line Fee is due monthly in arrears on the first day of each month commencing on December 1, 2017, and on the Maturity Date. For purposes of this Section 2.9(a) only, amounts advanced as Swingline Advances shall not reduce the amount of the unused Commitment.

(c) Fees for Letters of Credit. Borrower agrees to pay the following: (i) to Administrative Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders a per annum letter of credit fee for each Letter of Credit issued hereunder in an amount equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Advances on the face amount of such Letter of Credit for the period such Letter of Credit is outstanding, which fee shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month, and on the Maturity Date; (ii) to Issuing Lender, a fronting fee for each Letter of Credit equal to the greater of (A) 0.125% per annum on the face amount of such Letter of Credit and (B) $750.00, which fee shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month, and on the Maturity Date; (iii) to Issuing Lender, an additional fronting fee for each commercial Letter of Credit equal to an amount agreed to between Borrower and Issuing Lender in writing, which fee shall be due and payable in advance on the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and, in the case of an increase or extension only, on the date of such increase or such extension; and (iv) to Issuing Lender such other usual and customary fees associated with any transfers, amendments, drawings, negotiations or reissuances of any Letter of Credit, which fees shall be due and payable as requested by Issuing Lender in accordance with Issuing Lenders then current fee policy.

(d) Other Fees. Borrower agrees to pay the fees to Administrative Agent as set forth in the Fee Letter.

Section 2.10 Interest.

(a) Base Rate Advances. Each Base Rate Advance shall bear interest at the Adjusted Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances for such period. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender all accrued but unpaid interest on such Lenders Base Rate Advances on the first day of each month commencing December 1, 2017, and on the Maturity Date.

(b) Eurocurrency Advances. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest during its Interest Period equal to at all times the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Advances for such period. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of each Lender all accrued but unpaid interest on each of such Lenders Eurocurrency Advances on the last day of the Interest Period therefor (provided that for Eurocurrency Advances with six month Interest Periods, accrued but unpaid interest shall also be due on the day three months from the first day of such Interest Period), on the date any Eurocurrency Advance is repaid in full, and on the Maturity Date.

(c) Swingline Advances. Swingline Advances shall bear interest at the Adjusted Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances. Borrower shall pay to Swingline Lender for its own account subject to Section 2.4(f) all accrued but unpaid interest on each Swingline Advance on each Swingline Payment Date, on the date any Swingline Advance is repaid (or refinanced) in full, and on the Maturity Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 7.1(g), all Obligations shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at the Default Rate and (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 7.1(a) or 7.1(c) (as a result of a breach of Section 5.2(a), (b), (c) or (d) or Section 6.16), upon the request of Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders, all Obligations shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at the Default Rate. Interest accrued pursuant to this Section 2.10(d) and all interest accrued but unpaid on or after the Maturity Date shall be due and payable on demand, and if no express demand is made, then due and payable on such other dates as required herein.

Section 2.11 Illegality. If any Lender shall notify a Borrower that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Lending Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to make, maintain, or fund any Eurocurrency Advances of such Lender then outstanding hereunder, (a) the Borrower shall, no later than 11:00 a.m. (Atlanta, Georgia time) (i) if not prohibited by law, on the last day of the Interest Period for each outstanding Eurocurrency Advance, or (ii) if required by such notice, on the second Business Day following its receipt of such notice, prepay all of the Eurocurrency Advances of such Lender then outstanding, together with accrued interest on the principal amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.12 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date, (b) such Lender shall simultaneously make a Base Rate Advance to the Borrower on such date in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Advances prepaid to such Lender, and (c) the right of the Borrower to select Eurocurrency Advances from such Lender for any subsequent

Borrowing shall be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. Each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office if the making of such designation would avoid the effect of this paragraph and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

Section 2.12 Breakage Costs. Within 5 Business Days of demand made by any Lender to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) from time to time, Borrower shall compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment (including any deemed payment or repayment and any reallocated repayment to Non-Defaulting Lenders provided in Section 2.18) of any Advance other than a Base Rate Advance on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b) any failure by Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make an Advance) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Advance other than a Base Rate Advance on the date or in the amount notified by Borrower;

(c) any payment by Borrower of reimbursement drawings under any Letter of Credit in a currency other than such Letter of Credits original currency; or

including any loss of anticipated profits (excluding Applicable Margin), any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Advance, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract. Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 2.12, the requesting Lender shall be deemed to have funded such Advance at the Eurocurrency Rate by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for the applicable currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Advance was in fact so funded. Any notice delivered by Administrative Agent (including on behalf of any Lender providing such notice to Administrative Agent) setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be delivered to Applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

Section 2.13 Increased Costs.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurocurrency Rate) or any Issuing Lender;

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Tax (other than (x) Excluded Taxes, (y) Connection Income Taxes, and (z) Indemnified Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (in each case, other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Advances made by such Lender, or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Advance (or of maintaining its obligation to make or accept and purchase any such Advance), to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Lender 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 Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or Issuing Lender, Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Adequacy. If any Lender or Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or Issuing Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lenders or Issuing Lenders holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lenders or Issuing Lenders capital or on the capital of such Lenders or Issuing Lenders holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Advances made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lenders or Issuing Lenders holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lenders or Issuing Lenders policies and the policies of such Lenders or Issuing Lenders holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lenders or Issuing Lenders holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in

subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lenders or Issuing Lenders right to demand such compensation, provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lenders or Issuing Lenders intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 2.13 then such Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.13 in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Section 2.14 Payments and Computations.

(a) Payments. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments to be made by Borrower under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff; provided that, Borrower may setoff amounts owing to any Lender that is at such time a Defaulting Lender against Advances that such Defaulting Lender failed to the fund to Borrower under this Agreement (the Unfunded Advances) so long as (i) Borrower shall have delivered prior written notice of such setoff to Administrative Agent and such Defaulting Lender, (ii) the Advances made by the Lenders (other than such Defaulting Lender) as part of the original Borrowing to which the Unfunded Advances applied shall still be outstanding and was made under the same Facility, (iii) if such Defaulting Lender failed to fund Advances under more than one Borrowing, such setoff shall be applied in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Agent, and (iv) upon the application of such setoff, the Unfunded Advances shall be deemed to have been made by such Defaulting Lender on the effective date of such setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed in Dollars and in Same Day Funds. Subject to Section 2.6(c), each payment of any Advance pursuant to this Section or any other provision of this Agreement shall be made in a manner such that all Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing are paid in whole or ratably in part.

(b) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the Issuing Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the applicable Lenders or the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Lender, in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate (which interest shall not be borne by the Borrower). For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower shall continue to be obligated to pay the otherwise applicable interest on such amounts as and when due under this Agreement. A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Payment Procedures. Borrower shall make each payment of any amount due and payable under this Agreement and under any other Credit Document not later than 12:00 noon (Atlanta, Georgia time) on the day when due to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agents Office (or such other location as Administrative Agent shall designate in writing to Borrower) in Same Day Funds. Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter, and in any event prior to the close of business on the day any timely payment is made, cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable solely to any specific Lender Party pursuant to Section 2.4, 2.11, 2.12, 2.13, 2.15, 8.4 and 9.1 but after taking into account payments effected pursuant to Section 2.14(f)) in accordance with each Lenders Applicable Percentage to the Lenders for the account of their respective Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon receipt of other amounts due solely to a specific Lender Party, Administrative Agent shall distribute such amounts to the appropriate party to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Non-Business Day Payments. Whenever any payment shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on 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 that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(e) Computations. All computations of interest and fees shall be made by Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365/366 days for all Base Rate Advances based on the Adjusted Base Rate and a year of 360 days for all other interest and fees, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day, but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by Administrative Agent of an amount of interest or fees shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall not apply to any interest calculation

under this Agreement; all interest payments to be made hereunder shall be paid without allowance or deduction for deemed reinvestment or otherwise. The rates of interest specified in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates. Interest calculated hereunder shall be calculated using the nominal rate method and not the effective rate method of calculation.

(f) Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Advances or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Advances and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Advances and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Advances and other amounts owing them; provided that: (A) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and (B) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Advances or participations in Letter of Credit Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than to Borrower or any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Legal Requirement, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(g) Borrower hereby authorize Administrative Agent, from time to time without prior notice to Borrower, to charge to the Loan Account (A) on the first day of each month, all interest accrued during the prior month on the Advances, (B) on the first Business Day of each month, all fees or other amounts in respect of Letters of Credit accrued or chargeable hereunder during the prior month, (C) as and when incurred or accrued, all fees and costs provided for in Section 2.9(d) or 5.12(d), (D) on the first day of each month, the Unused Line Fee accrued during the prior month pursuant to Section 2.9(a), (E) as and when due and payable, all other fees payable hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents, (F) as and when incurred or accrued, all other amounts due under Section 9.1, and (G) as and when due and payable all other payment obligations payable under any Credit Document or any Banking Services Agreement (including any amounts due and payable to the Banking Services Providers in respect of Banking Services). All amounts (including interest, fees, costs, expenses, or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Credit Document or under any Banking Services Agreement) charged to the Loan Account shall thereupon constitute Advances hereunder, shall constitute Obligations hereunder, and shall initially accrue interest at the rate then applicable to

Advances that are Base Rate Loans (unless and until converted into Eurodollar Rate Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement).

(h) Administrative Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of Borrower (the Loan Account) on which Borrower will be charged with all Advances (including Extraordinary Advances and Swingline Advances) made by Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender, or the Lenders to Borrower or for Borrowers account, the Letters of Credit issued or arranged by Issuing Lender for Borrowers account, and with all other payment Obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, including, accrued interest, fees and expenses of Borrower with respect thereto.

Section 2.15 Taxes.

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.15, the term Lender includes any Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender and the term applicable Legal Requirement includes FATCA.

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

(c) Other Taxes. Credit Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements, or at the option of Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by Credit Parties. The Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, in each case, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, including reasonable attorneys and tax advisor fees and expenses (except such expenses resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Recipient, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Recipient (with a copy to Administrative

Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Failure or delay on the part of any Recipient to demand payment pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Persons right to demand such payment; provided that, no Recipient shall be indemnified for any Indemnified Taxes the demand for which is made to Borrower later than one year after the later of (i) the date on which the relevant Governmental Authority makes written demand upon the applicable Recipient for payment of such Indemnified Taxes, and (ii) the date on which such Recipient has made payment of such Indemnified Taxes; provided that if the Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted giving rise to such claims are retroactive, then the one-year period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Credit Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lenders failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.7(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Credit Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this subsection (e).

(f) Evidence of Tax Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.15, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of any available receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return (if any) reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

(g) Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or 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 Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or 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 (A), (B) and (D), below) shall not be required if in the Lenders 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,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and 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 Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: (i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Credit Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the interest article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Credit Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the business profits or other income article of such tax treaty; (ii) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a 10 percent shareholder of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a controlled foreign corporation described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or (iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by an applicable Legal Requirement 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 Legal Requirement to permit Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

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

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

(h) Status of Administrative Agent. On or before the date on which Wells Fargo (and any successor or replacement Administrative Agent) becomes Administrative Agent hereunder, it shall deliver to the Borrower two duly executed copies of either (i) IRS Form W-9, or (ii) IRS Form W-8ECI with respect to any payments to be received on its own behalf and IRS Form W-8IMY (certifying that it is either a qualified intermediary within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1441-1(e)(5) that has assumed primary withholding obligations under the Code, including Chapters 3 and 4 of the Code, or a U.S. branch within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) that is treated as a U.S. person for purposes of withholding obligations under the Code) for the amounts Administrative Agent receives for the account of others. Administrative Agent (or, upon assignment or replacement), any assignee or successor) 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 in writing of its inability to do so.

(i) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.15 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.15(i) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.15(i), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.15(i) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(j) Survival. Each partys obligations under this Section 2.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document.

(k) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13 requires Borrower to pay any additional amount to such Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15, then such Lender shall (at the request of Borrower) use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 or this Section 2.15, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Section 2.16 Replacement of Lenders. If (a) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13 or Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.15(k), (b) any Lender suspends its obligation to continue, or Convert Advances into, Eurocurrency Advances pursuant to Section 2.6(c)(iv) or (v) or Section 2.11, (c) any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, or (d) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender (any such Lender described in the preceding clauses (a) (d), a Subject Lender), then (i) in the case of a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent may, upon notice to the Subject Lender and Borrower,

require such Defaulting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.7), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.13 or Section 2.15) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents as a Lender to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) and (ii) in the case of any Subject Lender, Borrower may, upon notice to the Subject Lender and Administrative Agent and at Borrowers sole cost and expense, require such Subject Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.7), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.13 or Section 2.15) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a) as to assignments required by Borrower, Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 9.7;

(b) such Subject Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances and funded participations in outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations and funded participations in outstanding Swingline Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.12 other than in the case of a Defaulting Lender) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Legal Requirements; and

(e) in the event such Subject Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each assignee shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Subject Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Solely for purposes of effecting any assignment involving a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.16 and to the extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, each Lender hereby designates and appoints Administrative Agent as true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, for and on behalf of and in the name of such Lender to execute, acknowledge and deliver the Assignment and Acceptance required hereunder if such Lender is a Defaulting Lender and such Lender shall be bound thereby as fully and effectively as if such Lender had personally executed, acknowledged and delivered the same. In lieu of Borrower or Administrative Agent replacing a

Defaulting Lender as provided in this Section 2.16, Borrower may terminate such Defaulting Lenders applicable Commitments as provided in Section 2.1(b)(ii).

Section 2.17 [Reserved].

Section 2.18 Defaulting Lender Provisions.

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

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 2.18(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees.

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Line Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and no Borrower shall be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive letter of credit fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.3(i).

(C) With respect to any letter of credit fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (B) above, Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lenders participation in Letter of Credit Obligations that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Lender the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to Issuing Lenders Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lenders participation in the Letter of Credit Obligations and Swingline Advances, as the case may be, shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in such applicable Facility in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lenders applicable Commitments) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless Borrower shall have otherwise notified Administrative Agent at such time, Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the sum of (1) the aggregate amount of Advances owing to such Non-Defaulting Lender, plus (2) such Non-Defaulting Lenders participation in Swingline Advances and Letters of Credit to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lenders Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim

of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lenders increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Advances. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, within two Business Days, prepay Swingline Advances in an amount equal to the Swingline Lenders Fronting Exposure and (y) second, within three Business Days, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.3(i).

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower, Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and Issuing Lender agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Advances to be held pro rata by the applicable Lenders in accordance with the applicable Commitments under the applicable Facility (without giving effect to Section 2.18(a)(iv), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) New Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

Section 2.19 Incremental Facilities.

(a) At any time during the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the third anniversary of the Effective Date, at the option of Borrower (but subject to the conditions set forth in clause (b) below), the Commitments may be increased by an amount in the aggregate for all such increases of the Commitments not to exceed the Available Increase Amount (each such increase, an Increase). Administrative Agent shall invite each Lender to increase its Commitments (it being understood that no Lender shall be obligated to increase its Commitments) in connection with a proposed Increase at the interest margin proposed by Borrower, and if sufficient Lenders do not agree to increase their Commitments in connection with such proposed Increase, then Administrative Agent or Borrower may invite any prospective lender who is reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and Borrower to become a Lender in connection with a proposed Increase, in each case at the interest margin proposed by Borrower. Any Increase shall be in an amount of at least $25,000,000. In no event may the

Commitments be increased pursuant to this Section 2.19 on more than 4 occasions in the aggregate for all such Increases. Additionally, for the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that in no event shall the aggregate amount of the Increases to the Commitments exceed $150,000,000.

(b) Each of the following shall be conditions precedent to any Increase of the Commitments in connection therewith:

(i) Administrative Agent or Borrower have obtained the commitment of one or more Lenders (or other prospective lenders) reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and Borrower to provide the applicable Increase and any such Lenders (or prospective lenders), Borrower, and Administrative Agent have signed a joinder agreement to this Agreement (an Increase Joinder), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, to which such Lenders (or prospective lenders), Borrower, and Administrative Agent are party,

(ii) each of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 are satisfied,

(iii) in connection with any Increase, if any Credit Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries owns or will acquire any Margin Stock, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent an updated Form U-1 (with sufficient additional originals thereof for each Lender), duly executed and delivered by the Borrower, together with such other documentation as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, in order to enable Administrative Agent and the Lenders to comply with any of the requirements under Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board, and

(iv) Borrower shall have reached agreement with the Lenders (or prospective lenders) agreeing to the increased Commitments with respect to the interest margins applicable to Advances to be made pursuant to the increased Commitments (which interest margins may be higher than or equal to the interest margins applicable to Advances set forth in this Agreement immediately prior to the date of the increased Commitments (the date of the effectiveness of the increased Commitments, the Increase Date)) and shall have communicated the amount of such interest margins to Administrative Agent. Any Increase Joinder may, with the consent of Administrative Agent, Borrower and the Lenders or prospective lenders agreeing to the proposed Increase, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.19 (including any amendment necessary to effectuate the interest margins for the Advances to be made pursuant to the increased Commitments). Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, if the interest margins (including floors) that is to be applicable to the Advances to be made pursuant to the increased Commitments is higher than the interest margins (including floors) applicable to the Advances immediately prior to the applicable Increase Date (the amount by which such margin is higher, the Excess), then the interest margin applicable to the Advances immediately prior to the Increase Date shall be increased by the amount of the Excess, effective on the applicable Increase Date, and without the necessity of any action by any party hereto.

(c) Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references in this Agreement and any other Credit Document to Advances shall be deemed, unless the context otherwise requires, to include Advances made pursuant to the increased Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19.

(d) Each of the Lenders having a Commitment prior to the Increase Date (the Pre-Increase Revolver Lenders) shall assign to any Lender which is acquiring a new or additional Commitment on the Increase Date (the Post-Increase Revolver Lenders), and such Post-Increase Revolver Lenders shall purchase from each Pre-Increase Revolver Lender, at the principal amount thereof, such interests in the Advances and participation interests in Letters of Credit on such Increase Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Advances and participation interests in Letters of Credit will be held by Pre-Increase Revolver Lenders and Post-Increase Revolver Lenders ratably in accordance with their Applicable Percentage after giving effect to such increased Commitments.

(e) The Advances and Commitments established pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall constitute Advances and Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from any guarantees and the security interests created by the Credit Documents. Borrower shall take any actions reasonably required by Administrative Agent to ensure and demonstrate that the Liens and security interests granted by the Credit Documents continue to be perfected under the UCC or otherwise after giving effect to the establishment of any such new Commitments.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments and collections received by Administrative Agent from any Credit Party that is not a Qualified ECP Guarantor (and any proceeds received in respect of such Credit Partys Collateral (as defined in the Guaranty and Security Agreement)) shall not be applied to Excluded Swap Obligations with respect to any Credit Party, provided, however, that Administrative Agent shall make such adjustments as they determine are appropriate with respect to payments and collections received from the other Credit Parties (or proceeds received in respect of such other Credit Parties Collateral) to preserve, as nearly as possible, the allocation to Secured Obligations otherwise set forth above in this Section 7.6 (assuming that, solely for purposes of such adjustments, Secured Obligations includes Excluded Swap Obligations).

Subject to Section 2.3(i), amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fourth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur.

delivered financial statements, such cash proceeds may be received on or before the date that is 10 Business Days after the start of such Covenant Testing Period), (ii) the amount of such Equity Issuance Proceeds included as consolidated EBITDA for any such fiscal quarter shall not exceed the minimum amount necessary to cause the minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the cure provided herein, to be in compliance under Section 6.16 for the applicable period, and (iii) such Equity Issuance Proceeds or contribution must be applied first, as a prepayment of outstanding principal amount of any Swingline Advances on a pro rata basis, and second as a prepayment of the outstanding Advances on a pro rata basis.

Borrower shall not be permitted to request any Advance or Letter of Credit Extension, and such Events of Default shall be considered hereunder to have occurred and be continuing for all purposes (other than for purposes of Section 7.2 hereof) until such Equity Issuance Proceeds or cash capital contributions have been received by Borrower.

ARTICLE VIII
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND ISSUING LENDERS

Section 8.1 Appointment, Powers, and Immunities.

(a) Appointment and Authority. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender (and, by entering into a Banking Services Agreement each Banking Services Provider shall be deemed to) hereby (a) irrevocably appoints Wells Fargo to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, and (b) authorizes Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article VIII are solely for the benefit of the Lender Parties (and to the extent applicable, the Banking Services Providers), and neither Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions (except for Credit Parties consent rights provided in Section 8.6). It is understood and agreed that the use of the term agent herein or in any other Credit Documents (or any other similar

123

term) with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Legal Requirement. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

(b) Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as Administrative 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 Administrative Agent and the term Lender or Lenders shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Parent, Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. Wells Fargo (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from Parent, Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders.

(c) Exculpatory Provisions. Administrative Agent (which term as used in this Section 8.1(c) shall include its Related Parties) shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent:

(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Documents that Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Credit Documents), provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or Legal Requirement, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower, any Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

124

Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders, Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.1 and 9.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to Administrative Agent in writing by Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Lender. In the event that Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 9.2) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall reasonably be directed by the Majority Lenders, provided that, unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Secured Parties.

Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any recital, statement, warranty or representation (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the value, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, enforceability, sufficiency or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the inspection of, or to inspect, the Property (including the books and records) of any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof, (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to Administrative Agent, or (vii) any litigation or collection proceedings (or to initiate or conduct any such litigation or proceedings) under any Credit Document unless requested by the Majority Lenders in writing and it receives indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders.

Section 8.2 Reliance by Administrative Agent and Issuing Lender. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document, writing or other communication (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. 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 Credit Extension or any conversion or continuance of an Advance that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Credit Extension or conversion or continuance of an Advance. Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for

125

any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 8.3 Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub agents.

Each Lender Party (and, by entering into a Banking Services Agreement, each Banking Services Provider, shall be deemed to) acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party 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 Party (and, by entering into a Banking Services Agreement, each Banking Services Provider, shall be deemed to) also acknowledges and agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party 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 Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 8.6 Resignation of Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender.

(a) Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender may at any time give notice of its resignation to the other applicable Lender Parties and Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, (i) the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with the prior written consent of Borrower (which consent is not required if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, (ii) the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with the prior written consent of Borrower (which consent is not required if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to appoint a successor Issuing Lender, which shall be a Lender. If no such successor Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the applicable Majority Lenders) (the Resignation Effective Date), then the retiring Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, may on behalf of the Lenders and Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor agent or issuing lender meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation by Administrative Agent or an Issuing Lender shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Majority Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, by notice in writing to Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Majority Lenders) (the Removal Effective Date), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable), (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that (y) in the case of any collateral security held by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or an Issuing Lender under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and (z) the retiring Issuing Lender shall remain the Issuing Lender with respect to any Letters of Credit outstanding on the effective date of its resignation and the provisions affecting the Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit

128

shall inure to the benefit of the retiring Issuing Lender until the termination of all such Letters of Credit.), and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall instead be made by or to each applicable class of Lenders, until such time as the applicable Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successors appointment as Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents. The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agents or Issuing Lenders resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.1 and Section 2.3(g) shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Issuing Lender, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, was acting as Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender.

(d) Swingline Lender may resign at any time by giving 30 days prior notice to Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower. After the resignation of Swingline Lender hereunder, the retiring Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of Swingline Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with respect to Swingline Advances made by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to make any additional Swingline Advances. Upon such notice of resignation, Borrower shall have the right to designate any other Lender as Swingline Lender with the consent of such Lender so long as operational matters related to the funding of Advances under the Facility have been adequately addressed to the reasonable satisfaction of such new Swingline Lender and Administrative Agent (if such new Swingline Lender and Administrative Agent are not the same Person).

Section 8.7 Collateral Matters.

(a) Administrative Agent is authorized on behalf of the Secured Parties, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Secured Parties, from time to time, to take any actions with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain Acceptable Security Interests in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents, including but not limited to, the joinder documents required under Sections 5.6 and 5.7. Administrative Agent is further authorized (but not obligated) on behalf of the Secured Parties, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Secured Parties, from time to time, to take any action (other than enforcement actions requiring the consent of, or request by, the Majority Lenders as set forth in Section 7.2(c) or Section 7.3(c) above) in exigent circumstances as may be reasonably necessary to preserve any rights or privileges of the Lenders under the Credit Documents or applicable Legal Requirement.

129

(b) The Lenders hereby, and any other Secured Party by accepting the benefit of the Liens granted pursuant to the Security Documents, irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to (i) release any Lien granted to or held by Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (a) upon termination of this Agreement, termination of all Swap Obligations with such Persons (other than as to which agreements satisfactory to the applicable Swap Counterparty have been made), termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Issuing Lender have been made), and the payment in full of all outstanding Advances, Letter of Credit Obligations (other than with respect to Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Issuing Lender have been made) and all other Secured Obligations payable under this Agreement and under any other Credit Document; (b) constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; (c) constituting property in which no Credit Party owned an interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter (other than as a result of a Disposition not permitted under this Agreement); or (d) constituting property leased to any Credit Party under a lease which has expired or has been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement or is about to expire and which has not been, and is not intended by such Credit Party to be, renewed or extended; and (ii) release a Guarantor (and its property) from its obligations under the Guaranty and Security Document and any other applicable Credit Document if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under this Agreement.

(c) Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, the Secured Parties will confirm in writing Administrative Agents authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty and Security Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.7. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of Administrative Agents Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Credit Party in connection therewith, nor shall Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Secured Parties or any other Lender Party for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary, Credit Parties, Administrative Agent, and each Secured Party hereby agree that no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranties, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Guaranties and under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Credit Documents.

(e) By accepting the benefit of the Liens granted pursuant to the Security Documents, each Secured Party hereby agrees to the terms of this Section 8.7.

Section 8.8 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Joint Lead Arrangers or the Joint Book Runners listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Credit

130

Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Lender hereunder.

(b) Each Secured Party hereby agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Credit Documents or with the written consent of Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders, it will not take any enforcement action, accelerate obligations under any Credit Documents, or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Legal Requirements to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales or other similar Dispositions of Collateral; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, this subsection (b) shall not limit the rights of (i) any Swap Counterparty to terminate any Hedging Arrangement or net out any resulting termination values, or (ii) any Banking Service Provider to terminate any Banking Services or set off against any deposit accounts.

(i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lenders applicable Commitment and the Advances under such Commitment at the time owing to it (in each case with respect to any Facility) or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, the aggregate amount of the applicable Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Advances of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to 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 unless Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Class of Advances or the applicable Commitment assigned;

(iii) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender with a Commitment under the applicable Facility (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee);

(iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment, and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and

(v) copies of any Assignment and Acceptance received by Administrative Agent shall be promptly forwarded to Administrative Agent;

136

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, 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 Lenders 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 Section 2.12, 2.13, 2.15, 9.1 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lenders having been a Defaulting Lender. 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 subsection (c) of this Section.

(b) Register. Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.10 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the Register). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower and the Lender Parties shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(c) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person) (each, a Participant) in all or a portion of such Lenders rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the Advances owing to it); provided that (i) such Lenders 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) Borrower and the Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender Party in connection with such Lender Partys rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 8.4(a) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s). 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 described in clauses (a) through (f) of Section 9.2 (that adversely affects such Participant). Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.12, 2.13 and 2.15 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.15(g) (it being

137

understood that the documentation required under Section 2.15(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.16 as if it were an assignee under subsection (a) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13 and 2.15, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.

Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrowers request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.16 with respect to any Participant. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register in the United States on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participants interest in the obligations under the Credit Documents (the Participant Register) and no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose any information contained in any Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to the Participants interests in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and other applicable provisions of the Code. 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, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) 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; 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.

Section 9.8 Cashless Settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or a portion of its Advances in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by Borrower, Administrative Agent and such Lender.

Section 9.9 Confidentiality. Each Lender Party agrees to keep confidential any information furnished or made available to it by any Restricted Entity pursuant to this Agreement; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender Party from disclosing such information (a) to any other Lender Party or any Affiliate of any Lender Party, or any officer, director, employee, agent, or advisor of any Lender Party or Affiliate of any Lender Party for purposes of administering, negotiating, considering, processing, implementing, syndicating, assigning, or evaluating the credit facilities provided herein and the transactions contemplated

138

hereby, provided that such Persons are advised of the confidential nature of such information, (b) to any other Person if directly incidental to the administration of the credit facilities provided herein, provided, that such Persons are advised of the confidential nature of such information, (c) as required by any Legal Requirement, (d) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (e) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (f) that is or becomes available to the public or that is or becomes available to any Lender Party other than as a result of a disclosure by any other Lender Party prohibited by this Agreement, (g) in connection with any litigation relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document to which such Lender Party or any of its Affiliates may be a party, (h) to the extent necessary in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, and (i) to any actual or proposed participant or assignee, in each case, subject to provisions similar to those contained in this Section 9.9. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, nothing in this Agreement shall (a) restrict any Lender Party from providing information to any bank or other regulatory or Governmental Authorities, including the Federal Reserve Board and its supervisory staff; (b) require or permit any Lender Party to disclose to any Credit Party that any information will be or was provided to the Federal Reserve Board or any of its supervisory staff; or (c) require or permit any Lender Party to inform any Credit Party of a current or upcoming Federal Reserve Board examination or any nonpublic Federal Reserve Board supervisory initiative or action. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent may disclose information concerning the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to loan syndication and pricing reporting services or in its marketing or promotional materials, with such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications or marketing or promotional materials and may otherwise use the name, logos, and other insignia of Borrower or the other Credit Parties and the Commitments provided hereunder in any tombstone or other advertisements, on its website or in other marketing materials of Administrative Agent.

Section 9.10 Notices, Etc.

(a) Notices Generally.

(i) Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone or electronic communication in accordance with Section 9.10(a)(ii) (and except as provided in subsection (b) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by facsimile as follows: (i) if to Borrower or any other Credit Party, at the applicable address (or facsimile numbers) set forth on Schedule II; (ii) if to Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, at the applicable address (or facsimile numbers) set forth on Schedule II; and (iii) if to a Lender, to it at its address (or facsimile number) set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire.

(ii) Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or any Issuing Lender pursuant to Article II if such Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified Administrative Agent that is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. Administrative Agent and Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept such notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (A) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the senders receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the return receipt requested function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (B) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing sub-clause (A) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both sub-clauses (A) and (B) above, if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice, email or other communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.

(b) Electronic Communications.

(i) Borrower and the Lenders agree that Administrative Agent may make any material delivered by Borrower to Administrative Agent, as well as any amendments, waivers, consents, and other written information, documents, instruments and other materials relating to Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, or any other materials or matters relating to this Agreement, the Notes or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the Communications) available to the Lenders by posting such notices on an electronic delivery system (which may be provided by Administrative Agent, an Affiliate of Administrative Agent, or any Person that is not an Affiliate of Administrative Agent), such as IntraLinks, or a substantially similar electronic system (the Platform). Borrower acknowledges that (i) the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution, (ii) the Platform is provided as is and as available and (iii) neither Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates warrants the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, sufficiency, or sequencing of the Communications posted on the Platform. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates expressly disclaim with respect to the Platform any liability for errors in transmission, incorrect or incomplete downloading, delays in posting or delivery, or problems accessing the Communications posted on the Platform and any liability for any losses, costs, expenses or liabilities that may be suffered or incurred in connection with the Platform. No warranty of any kind,

140

express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with the Platform. In no event shall Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties have any liability to Borrower or the other Credit Parties, any Lender Party or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of Borrowers, any Credit Partys or any Lender Partys transmission of communications through the Platform.

(ii) Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) (a Notice) specifying that any Communication has been posted to the Platform shall for purposes of this Agreement constitute effective delivery to such Lender of such information, documents or other materials comprising such Communication. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify, on or before the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, Administrative Agent in writing of such Lenders e-mail address to which a Notice may be sent (and from time to time thereafter to ensure that Administrative Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such Lender) and (ii) that any Notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

(c) Change of Address, Etc. Any party hereto may change its address or facsimile number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.

Section 9.11 Usury Not Intended. It is the intent of each Credit Party and each Lender Party in the execution and performance of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury laws, including conflicts of law concepts, governing the Advances of each Lender including such applicable laws of the State of New York, if any, and the United States of America from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof, the Lender Parties and Credit Parties stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, as consideration for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest at a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate and that for purposes of this Agreement interest shall include the aggregate of all charges which constitute interest under such laws that are contracted for, charged or received under this Agreement; and in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, under any circumstances the aggregate amounts taken, reserved, charged, received or paid on the Advances, include amounts which by applicable Legal Requirement are deemed interest which would exceed the Maximum Rate, then such excess shall be deemed to be a mistake and each Lender receiving same shall credit the same on the principal of its Obligations (or if such Obligations shall have been paid in full, refund said excess to Borrower). In the event that the maturity of the Obligations are accelerated by reason of any election of the holder thereof resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest may never include more than the Maximum Rate, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the applicable Obligations (or, if the

141

applicable Obligations shall have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower of such interest). In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingencies exceeds the Maximum Rate, Credit Parties and the Lender Parties shall to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the Obligations all amounts considered to be interest under applicable law at any time contracted for, charged, received or reserved in connection with the Obligations. The provisions of this Section shall control over all other provisions of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents which may be in apparent conflict herewith.

Section 9.12 Usury Recapture. In the event the rate of interest chargeable under this Agreement at any time is greater than the Maximum Rate, the unpaid principal amount of the Advances shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest paid or accrued on the Advances equals the amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued on the Advances if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In the event, upon payment in full of the Advances, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement and the Advances is less than the total amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued if the rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had, at all times, been in effect, then Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, pay Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders an amount equal to the difference between (i) the lesser of (A) the amount of interest which would have been charged on its Advances if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect and (B) the amount of interest which would have accrued on its Advances if the rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect and (ii) the amount of interest actually paid under this Agreement on its Advances. In the event the Lenders ever receive, collect or apply as interest any sum in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess amount shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Advances, and if no such principal is then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to Borrower.

Section 9.13 Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the specified currency) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with usual and customary banking procedures Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at any of Administrative Agents offices in the United States of America on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligations of Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender Party hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender, Issuing Lender or Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender, Issuing Lender or Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender, Issuing Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender, Issuing Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the

142

specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender, Issuing Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 2.14, each Lender, Issuing Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to promptly remit such excess to Borrower.

Section 9.14 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of Borrower is made to any Lender Party, or any Lender Party exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by any Lender Party in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and each Issuing Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 9.15 Governing Law. This Agreement, the Notes and the other Credit Documents (other than such Credit Documents which expressly provide otherwise) shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York (including Section 5-1401 and Section 5- 1402 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York). Each Letter of Credit shall be governed by either (i) the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600, or (ii) the ISP, in either case, including any subsequent revisions thereof approved by a Congress of the International Chamber of Commerce and adhered to by Issuing Lender.

Section 9.16 Submission to Jurisdiction. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENT, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER

143

PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENT. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT ANY PARTY MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

Section 9.17 Waiver of Venue. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENT, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN SECTION 9.16. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES THAT SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 4-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL APPLY TO THIS AGREEMENT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENT, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

Section 9.18 Service of Process. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.10. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Legal Requirement.

Section 9.19 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or by e-mail PDF copy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 9.20 Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words execution, signed, signature, and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 9.21 Waiver of Jury. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR

144

OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 9.22 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of such Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Credit Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Section 9.23 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party to honor all of its obligations under this Agreement in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 9.23 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 9.23, or otherwise under this Agreement, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of all Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements satisfactory to Administrative Agent and Issuing Lender have been made). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 9.23 constitute, and this Section 9.23 shall be deemed to constitute, a keepwell, support, or other agreement for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 9.24 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Credit Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of 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;

145

(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 Credit Document; or

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

Section 9.25 Integration. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS, AS DEFINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTERS SET FORTH HEREIN AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.

Section 9.26 Banking Services Providers. Each Banking Services Provider in its capacity as such shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof and of the provisions of the other Credit Documents for purposes of any reference in a Credit Document to the parties for whom Administrative Agent is acting. Administrative Agent hereby agrees to act as agent for such Banking Services Providers and, by virtue of entering into a Banking Services Agreement, the applicable Banking Services Provider shall be automatically deemed to have appointed Administrative Agent as its agent and to have accepted the benefits of the Credit Documents. It is understood and agreed that the rights and benefits of each Banking Services Provider under the Credit Documents consist exclusively of such Banking Services Providers being a beneficiary of the Liens and security interests (and, if applicable, guarantees) granted to Administrative Agent and the right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral as more fully set forth herein. In addition, each Banking Services Provider, by virtue of entering into a Banking Services Agreement, shall be automatically deemed to have agreed that Administrative Agent shall have the right, but shall have no obligation, to establish, maintain, relax, or release reserves in respect of the Banking Services Obligations and that if reserves are established there is no obligation on the part of Administrative Agent to determine or insure whether the amount of any such reserve is appropriate or not. In connection with any such distribution of payments or proceeds of Collateral, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due or owing to any Banking Services Provider unless such Banking Services Provider has provided a written certification (setting forth a reasonably detailed calculation) to Administrative Agent as to the amounts that are due and owing to it and such written certification is received by Administrative Agent a reasonable period of time prior to the making of such distribution. Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount due and payable with respect to any Banking Services, but may rely upon the written certification of the amount due and payable from the applicable Banking Services Provider. In the absence of an updated certification, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that the amount due and payable to the applicable Banking Services Provider is the amount last certified to Administrative Agent by such Banking Services Provider as being due and payable (less any distributions made to such Banking Services Provider on account thereof). The Credit Parties and their Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries may obtain Banking Services from any Banking Services Provider, although Credit Parties and their Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries are not required to do so. No Banking Services Provider has committed to provide any Banking Services and the providing of Banking Services

146

by any Banking Services Provider is in the sole and absolute discretion of such Banking Services Provider. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, no provider or holder of any Banking Services shall have any voting or approval rights hereunder (or be deemed a Lender) solely by virtue of its status as the provider or holder of such agreements or products or the Secured Obligations owing thereunder, nor shall the consent of any such provider or holder be required (other than in their capacities as Lenders, to the extent applicable) for any matter hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents, including as to any matter relating to the Collateral or the release of Collateral or Guarantors.
