In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Parent Borrower to, or entered into by the Parent Borrower with, an Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. (ii) Any Letter of Credit issuable under this Agreement may be issued, if the Parent Borrower so requests and the relevant Issuing Lender so agrees, in the form of an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit; provided that any such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit must permit such Issuing Lender to prevent any such renewal at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof of such Issuing Lender’s option not to extend the Letter of Credit beyond the expiration date (a “Non-Renewal Notice”). Such Issuing Lender shall have the option to issue a Non-Renewal Notice during a specified period in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon by the Parent Borrower, such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent at the time such Letter of Credit is issued (the date of such notice shall be referred to herein as the “Non-Renewal Notice Date”). Once an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit has been issued, each Lender shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the relevant Issuing Lender to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than one year after its date of issuance or renewal; provided that such Issuing Lender shall not permit any such renewal if such Issuing Lender has reasonably determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms of this Agreement (by reason of the provisions of paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section or otherwise). (c) Limitations on Amounts. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the aggregate LC Exposure shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate LC Sublimits for all Issuing Lenders and (y) $200,000,000 and, subject to the last sentence of this subsection (c), no more than $100,000,000 of which may be in respect of Standby Letters of Credit (the “Standby Letters of Credit Sublimit”), (ii) the aggregate amount of the Letter of CreditLC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Lender shall not exceed the LC Sublimit of such Issuing Lender, (iii) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender shall not exceed the Commitment of such Lender, (iv) the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures plus the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Competitive Loans shall not exceed the total Commitments and (v) in the event the Commitment Termination Date shall have been extended as provided in Section 2.20, the sum of (x) the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit expiring after any Existing Commitment Termination Date, plus (y) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Competitive Loans maturing after such Existing Commitment Termination Date plus (z) the Swingline Exposure attributable to Swingline Loans maturing after such Existing Commitment Termination Date shall not exceed the total Commitments that shall have been extended to a date after the latest expiration date of such Letters of Credit and the latest maturity date of such Competitive Loans and such Swingline Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parent Borrower may adjust the amount of the Standby Letters of Credit Sublimit by providing three (3) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, so long as the total of such Standby Letters of Credit Sublimit plus any LC Exposure in respect of Commercial Letters of Credit outstanding does not exceed the aggregate sublimit for Letters of -28-

Credit set forth in Section 2.06(c)(i). The Administrative Agent shall promptly confirm to the Parent Borrower, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders the amount and the effective date of the revised sublimits. (d) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date twelve-months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, twelve months after the then-current expiration date of such Letter of Credit), subject to automatic renewal of any Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit as provided in Section 2.06(b)(ii), and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Commitment Termination Date. (e) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) by any Issuing Lender, and without any further action on the part of such Issuing Lender or the Lenders, such Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, or any force majeure or other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject (including Section 3.14 of ISP 98 or any successor publication of the International Chamber of Commerce) permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the expiration thereof or of the Commitments. Each Lender further acknowledges and agrees that, in issuing, amending, renewing or extending any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon the representation and warranty of the Borrowers deemed made pursuant to Section 5.02, unless, at least two Business Days prior to the time of issuance, or the time of any amendment, renewal or extension subject to Section 5.02, of any Letter of Credit by such Issuing Lender (or, in the case of an automatic renewal permitted pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 2.06(b), at least two Business Days prior to the time by which the election not to permit renewal must be made by the relevant Issuing Lender), the Required Lenders shall have notified the applicable Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in writing that, as a result of one or more events or circumstances described in such notice, one or more of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.02 would not be satisfied if such Letter of Credit were then issued or so amended, renewed or extended (it being understood and agreed that, in the event any Issuing Lender shall have received any such notice, no Issuing Lender shall issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit until and unless it shall be satisfied that the events and circumstances described in such notice shall have been cured or otherwise shall have ceased to exist). In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for account of the relevant Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by an Issuing Lender (i) in the event the Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due, as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section, promptly upon the receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in paragraph (f) of this Section and (ii) if any reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to the Borrowers for any reason, at any time thereafter, promptly upon the request of such Issuing Lender. Such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each such payment shall be made in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Syndicated Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the relevant Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from any Borrower pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the relevant Issuing Lender or, to the extent that the Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. (f) Disbursement and Reimbursement. If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, such Issuing Lender shall give prompt notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery, facsimile or e-mail), and the Borrowers shall reimburse such Issuing Lender in respect of such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to -29-

such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Parent Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Parent Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time; provided that if such LC Disbursement is not less than (x) $2,000,000 in the case of a Syndicated ABR Borrowing and (y) $1,000,000 in the case of a Swingline Borrowing, the Parent Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with a Syndicated ABR Borrowing or a Swingline Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Syndicated ABR Borrowing or Swingline Borrowing. If the Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. (g) Obligations Absolute. The Borrowers’ obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by an Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (iv) the failure to perfect any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders as security for any reimbursement obligations in respect of any LC Disbursement, (v) any force majeure or other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject (incl uding Section 3.14 of ISP 98 or any successor publication of the International Chamber of Commerce) permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the stated expiration date thereof or of the Commitments or (vi) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders, or any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit by any Issuing Lender or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the relevant Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Lender (with such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment), such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination, and that: (i) an Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (ii) an Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and -30-

(iii) this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by an Issuing Lender when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing). (h) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Lender for any Letter of Credit shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Lender shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery, facsimile or e-mail) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such Issuing Lender and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. (i) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Lender for any Letter of Credit shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to, but excluding the date that the Borrowers reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Syndicated ABR Loans; provided that, if the Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section, then Section 2.13(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of such Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand has been made, on the date on which the Borrowers reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement in full. (j) Additional Issuing Lenders; TerminationReplacement of Issuing Lenders. An Issuing Lender may be added, or an existing Issuing Lender may be terminatedreplaced, under this Agreement at any time by written agreement between the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such addition or terminationreplacement. At the time any such terminationreplacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the Issuing Lender being terminatedreplaced pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such addition, the new Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter. After the terminationreplacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the terminatedreplaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to any outstanding Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such terminationreplacement, but shall not be required to issue any new Letters of Credit or to amend, renew or extend any such outstanding Letters of Credit. (k) Resignation of Issuing Lender. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank, any Issuing Lender may resign as an Issuin g Lend er at an y ti me up o n thir t y d a ys’ p r i o r wr i tten no tice to the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Issuing Lender shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.06(j) above. (l) Issuing Lender Reports to the Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Lender issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the stated amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender makes any LC Disbursement, the date and amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrowers fail to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Lender on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such -31-

other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender. (m) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Parent Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated pursuant to Article VIII, Lenders with LC Exposure representing more than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrowers shall immediately deposit into an account established and maintained on the books and records of the Administrative Agent, which account may be a “securities account” (within the meaning of Section 8-501 of the UCC), in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in immediately available funds in Dollars equal to 103% of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Parent Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Article VIII. The Borrowers also shall deposit cash collateral in accordance with this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.21. Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the LC Exposure and other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement, and for this purpose the Borrowers hereby grant a security interest to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders in such collateral account and in any financial assets (as defined in the UCC) or other property held therein. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. All amounts on deposit pursuant to this paragraph (l) shall be invested by the Administrative Agent in interest bearing instruments or accounts, with the selection of which instruments or accounts to be determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion; provided that the Administrative Agent shall consult with the Parent Borrower as to the selection of such instruments or accounts; provided, further, that such investments shall be at the risk and expense of the Borrowers. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the relevant Issuing Lender for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but (i) subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing 100% of the total LC Exposure and (ii) in the case of any such application at a time when any Lender is a Defaulting Lender (but only if, after giving effect thereto, the remaining cash collateral shall be less than the aggregate LC Exposure of all the Defaulting Lenders), the consent of each Issuing Lender)), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the amount (including any interest and profits earned thereon as aforesaid) standing to the credit of such account (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.21, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers, as promptly as practicable, to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, no Issuing Lender shall have any exposure in respect of any outstanding Letter of Credit that is not fully covered by the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or the remaining cash collateral and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. SECTION 2.07. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Funding by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 2:00 p.m., New York City time (or, in the case of any Syndicated ABR Loan, 4:00 p.m., New York City time), to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrowers by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the applicable Borrower designated by the Parent Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that Syndicated ABR Borrowings made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(f) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the relevant Issuing Lender specified in the applicable Borrowing Request. -32-

(b) Presumption by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Syndicated ABR Loans. If the Borrowers and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrowers the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. SECTION 2.08. Interest Elections. (a) Elections by the Parent Borrower for Syndicated Borrowings. The Loans comprising each Syndicated Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request or as otherwise provided in Section 2.03(d) and, in the case of a Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have the Interest Period specified in such Borrowing Request or as otherwise provided in Section 2.03(d). Thereafter, the Parent Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as a Borrowing of the same Type and, in the case of a Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect the Interest Period therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Parent Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Competitive Borrowings or Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued. (b) Notice of Elections. To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Parent Borrower were requesting a Syndicated Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, facsimile or e-mail (in .pdf or .tif format) to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower. (c) Content of Interest Election Requests. Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and -33-

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period therefor after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” and permitted under Section 2.02(d). (d) Notice by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. (e) Failure to Elect; Events of Default. If the Parent Borrower fails to deliver a timely and complete Interest Election Request with respect to a Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of seven days’ duration. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Parent Borrower (provided that no such notice shall be required in the case of any Event of Default under clause (h) or (i) of Article VII with respect to the Parent Borrower), then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (A) no outstanding Syndicated Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing and (B) unless repaid, each Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be converted to a Syndicated ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period therefor. SECTION 2.09. Termination, Reduction and Increase of the Commitments. (a) Scheduled Termination. Unless previously terminated, each Commitment shall terminate on the Commitment Termination Date applicable to such Commitment. (b) Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The Parent Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each partial reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is $5,000,000 or a larger multiple thereof and (ii) the Parent Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures plus the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Competitive Loans would exceed the total Commitments. (c) Notice of Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Parent Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Parent Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Parent Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. (d) Effect of Termination or Reduction. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. (e) Increase of Commitments. (i) Requests for Increase. The Parent Borrower may, at any time following the Effective Date, effect an increase in the Commitments hereunder (each such increase being a “Commitment Increase”) by having one or more Additional Commitment Lenders provide new or additional Commitments hereunder, by notice to the Administrative Agent specifying the amount of the relevant Commitment Increase, the identity of the Additional Commitment Lender(s) and the date on which such increase is to be effective (the “Commitment Increase Date”), which shall be a Business Day at least three Business Days after delivery of such notice and 30 days prior to the Commitment -34-

Termination Date (or, if at such time, there shall exist different Commitment Termination Dates for the Lenders hereunder, the latest applicable Commitment Termination Date); provided that: (A) the minimum amount of each Commitment Increase shall be $25,000,000; (B) immediately after giving effect to any Commitment Increase, the aggregate Commitments hereunder shall not exceed $1,200,000,0001,000,000,000; (C) at the time of any such Commitment Increase, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom; and (D) the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Commitment Increase Date as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date). Each notice by the Parent Borrower under this paragraph shall be deemed to constitute a representation and warranty by the Parent Borrower as to the matters specified in clauses (B), (C) and (D) above as of the relevant Commitment Increase Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation hereunder to become an Additional Commitment Lender and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of each Lender. (ii) Effectiveness of Increase. Each Commitment Increase (and the new or additional Commitment of each Additional Commitment Lender resulting therefrom) shall become effective as of the relevant Commitment Increase Date upon receipt by the Administrative Agent, on or prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Commitment Increase Date, of: (A) a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower stating that the conditions with respect to such Commitment Increase under this paragraph (e) have been satisfied; (B) an agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which each such Additional Commitment Lender shall, effective as of such Commitment Increase Date, provide a new or additional Commitment hereunder in the amount specified therein and (if not then an existing Lender) become a Lender hereunder, in each case duly executed by each such Additional Commitment Lender and the Parent Borrower and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent; and (C) such evidence of authority of the Parent Borrower to effect such Commitment Increase as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request. Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a fully executed agreement from each Additional Commitment Lender referred to in clause (B) above, together with the certificates and/or other documents referred to in clauses (A) and (C) above, the Administrative Agent shall record the information contained in each such agreement in the Register and give prompt notice of the effectiveness of the relevant Commitment Increase to the Parent Borrower and the Lenders (including each Additional Commitment Lender). (iii) On each Commitment Increase Date, (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Syndicated Loans outstanding (the “Existing Syndicated Borrowings”) immediately prior to the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase shall be deemed to be repaid, (ii) each Additional Commitment Lender that shall have had a Commitment prior to the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the difference between (A) the product of (1) such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated after giving effect to the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the aggregate amount of the Resulting Syndicated Borrowings (as defined below) and (B) the product of (1) such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated without giving effect to the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the aggregate amount of the Existing Syndicated Borrowings, (iii) each Additional Commitment Lender that shall not have had a Commitment prior to the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase shall pay to -35-

Administrative Agent in Dollars, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the product of (1) such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated after giving effect to the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the aggregate amount of the Resulting Syndicated Borrowings, (iv) after the Administrative Agent receives the funds specified in clauses (ii) and (iii) above, the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender the portion of such funds that is equal to the difference between (A) the product of (1) such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated without giving effect to the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the aggregate amount of the Existing Syndicated Borrowings, and (B) the product of (1) such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated after giving effect to the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the aggregate amount of the Resulting Syndicated Borrowings, (v) after the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase, the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have made new Syndicated Borrowings (the “Resulting Syndicated Borrowings”) in an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Existing Syndicated Borrowings and of the Types and for the Interest Periods specified in a Borrowing Request delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.03 (and the Parent Borrower shall deliver such Borrowing Request), (vi) each Lender shall be deemed to hold its Applicable Percentage of each Resulting Syndicated Borrowing (calculated after giving effect to the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase) and (vii) the Borrowers shall pay each Lender any and all accrued but unpaid interest on its Loans comprising the Existing Syndicated Borrowings. The deemed payments of the Existing Syndicated Borrowings made pursuant to clause (i) above shall be subject to compensation by the Borrowers pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.16 if the date of the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase occurs other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto. Upon each Commitment Increase, the participation interests of the Lenders in the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall automatically be adjusted to reflect, and each Lender (including each Additional Commitment Lender) shall have a participation in each such Letter of Credit equal to, the Lenders’ respective Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under each such Letter of Credit, after giving effect to such Commitment Increase. SECTION 2.10. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) Repayment. The Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay the Loans as follows: (i) to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender the outstanding principal amount of the Syndicated Loans of such Lender on the Commitment Termination Date applicable to such Syndicated Loans, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Competitive Loan of such Lender on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, and (iii) to the applicable Swingline Lender or, to the extent required by Section 2.05(c), to the Administrative Agent for account of the Lenders, the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Commitment Termination Date applicable to such Swingline Loan and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least seven Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Syndicated Borrowing or Competitive Borrowing is made, the Borrowers shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding. (b) Maintenance of Records by Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice records evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. (c) Maintenance of Records by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall maintain records in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and, if applicable, each Interest Period therefor, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. (d) Effect of Entries. The entries made in the records maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any -36-

manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans or pay any other amounts hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. (e) Promissory Notes. Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in customary form reasonably satisfactory to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein or its registered assigns. SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. (a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to the requirements of this Section; provided that the Borrowers shall not have the right to prepay any Competitive Loan without the prior consent of the Lender thereof. (b) Notices, Etc. The Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Borrowing, each Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery, facsimile or e-mail (in .pdf or .tif format)) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing or of a Competitive Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of a Syndicated ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Syndicated Borrowing or Competitive Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Class and Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13 and any payments pursuant to Section 2.16, if applicable. If the Parent Borrower provides a notice of prepayment but fails to make a timely selection of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid, such prepayment shall be applied, first, to pay any outstanding Swingline Borrowing, second, to any outstanding Syndicated ABR Borrowings and, third, to the outstanding Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowings in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid first). SECTION 2.12. Fees. (a) Commitment Fees. The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the date hereofEffective Date to but excluding the date such Commitment terminates; provided that Swingline Loans shall be excluded for the purposes of this calculation. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on each Quarterly Date and on the date the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereofEffective Date; provided that any commitment fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). (b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers agree to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate applicable to interest on Syndicated Eurocurrency Loans (or, the case of Commercial Letters of Credit, 50% of such Applicable Rate) on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC -37-

Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure and (ii) to each Issuing Lender a fronting fee, if any, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately agreed upon between the Parent Borrower and such Issuing Lender on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any such LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Lender’s standard fees with respect to the administration, issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees, if any, accrued through and including each Quarterly Date shall be payable on the third Business Day following such Quarterly Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees, if any, shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). (c) Administrative Agent Fees. The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. (d) Payment of Fees. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in Dollars and immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the relevant Issuing Lender, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. SECTION 2.13. Interest. (a) ABR Loans. The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. (b) Eurocurrency Loans. The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of a Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate, or (ii) in the case of a Competitive Eurocurrency Borrowing, the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period for such Borrowing plus (or minus, as applicable) the Margin applicable to such Borrowing. (c) Fixed Rate Loans. Each Fixed Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Fixed Rate applicable to such Loan. (d) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by a Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided above or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. (e) Payment of Interest. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Syndicated Loans and Swingline Loans, upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand; (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of a Syndicated ABR Loan prior to the Commitment Termination Date applicable to such Loan), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment; and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Borrowing shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. -38-

(f) Computation. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of the Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing: (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate (in the case of a Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing) or the LIBO Rate (in the case of a Competitive Eurocurrency Borrowing) for such Interest Period; or (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders (or, in the case of a Competitive Eurocurrency Borrowing, any Lender that is required to make a Loan included in such Borrowing) that the Adjusted LIBO Rate (in the case of a Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing) or the LIBO Rate (in the case of a Competitive Eurocurrency Borrowing) for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their respective Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Parent Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, facsimile or e-mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Parent Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Syndicated Borrowing to, or the continuation of any Syndicated Borrowing as, a Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Syndicated Borrowing (unless prepaid) shall be continued as, or converted to, a Syndicated ABR Borrowing, (ii) any Borrowing Request for a Syndicated Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be treated as a request for a Syndicated ABR Borrowing and (iii) in the case of any such Competitive Eurocurrency Borrowing, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the applicable Lender or Lenders shall have no obligation to make, and the Borrowers shall have no right or obligation to borrow, the Loan of such Lender or the Loans of such Lenders, in each case, included in such Borrowing. SECTION 2.15. 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 Adjusted LIBO Rate) or any Issuing Lender; (ii) subject any Lender or any Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent to any Tax (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Other Taxes, and (C) Excluded Taxes) of any kind whatsoever with respect to 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 any Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement, Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such 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 -39-

by such Lender or such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, for such additional costs or expense incurred or reduction suffered. (b) Capital and Liquidity Requirements. If any Lender or any Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has had or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment (or the Swingline Commitment) of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts in Dollars (and including a reasonable statement as to the calculation of such amount or amounts) necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Parent Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such 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 any Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Parent Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). (e) Competitive Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, a Lender shall not be entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section in respect of any Competitive Loan if the Change in Law (other than any Change in Law referred to in the proviso of the definition of such term) that would otherwise entitle it to such compensation shall have been publicly announced prior to submission of the Competitive Bid pursuant to which such Loan was made. SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Syndicated Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Syndicated Loan on the d ate specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under Section 2.11(b) and is revoked in accordance herewith), (d) the failure to borrow any Competitive Loan after accepting the Competitive Bid to make such Loan, or (e) the assignment as a result of a request by the Parent Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19(b) of any Syndicated Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that such Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount of such Loan for the period from the date of such -40-

payment, conversion, failure or assignment to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate (in the case of a Syndicated Eurocurrency Loan) or the LIBO Rate (in the case of a Competitive Eurocurrency Loan) for such Interest Period, over (ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an affiliate of such Lender) for deposits denominated in Dollars from other banks in the London interbank market at the commencement of such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Parent Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. SECTION 2.17. Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of an Obligor hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes (including Other Taxes); provided that if an Obligor or any other applicable withholding agent shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the applicable Obligor or other applicable withholding agent shall make or cause to be made such deductions and (iii) the applicable Obligor or other applicable withholding agent shall timely pay or cause to be paid the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the Obligor shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. (c) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Lender, within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Other Taxes, and Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts paid or payable under this Section, but excluding Excluded Taxes under all circumstances) paid or payable by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes (including Other Taxes) were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability, prepared in good faith and delivered to the Parent Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes (including Other Taxes) by the applicable Obligor to a Governmental Authority, the applicable Obligor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. (e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Obligors have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Obligors to do so) that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this paragraph (e) shall be paid within 10 da ys after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. (f) Lender Tax Certifications. -41-

(i)Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(f)(ii)(A) through (B) or (g) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s 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. Upon the reasonable request of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this paragraph (f) or paragraph (g). If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so. (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (A) each Foreign Lender shall (x) furnish on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement either (1) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form), (2) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or successor form), and/or (3) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Service Form W-8IMY (together with the forms described in clauses (1) and (2), as required) certifying, in each case, to such Foreign Lender’s legal entitlement to a complete exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax with respect to all interest payments hereunder, and (y) provide a new Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form) or Form W-8ECI (or successor form) and/or Form W-8IMY (or successor form) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form to reconfirm complete exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax with respect to any interest payment hereunder to the extent (in case of this clause (y)) such Foreign Lender is legally able to do so; provided that any Foreign Lender that is relying on the so-called “portfolio interest exemption” and is not (x) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (y) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Parent Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code and (z) a controlled foreign corporation described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, shall also furnish a “Non-Bank Certificate” in the form of Exhibit C together with a Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the legal inability of a Foreign Lender to provide any documentation pursuant to this Section 2.17(f)(ii)(A) shall not cause any Tax resulting from such inability to be an Excluded Tax in circumstances where such inability arises solely due to a Change in Law subsequent to the date the Foreign Lender becomes a party to this Agreement. Subject to Section 2.17(a), if any Foreign Lender fails to provide the certifications described in this paragraph, each such Foreign Lender acknowledges that the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold any Taxes imposed by the United States or any taxing authority thereof or therein, to the extent required by law. (B) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and -42-

withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(f)(ii)(B), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this AgreementEffective Date. (g) U.S. Lender Tax Certifications. Any Lender that is a United States person, as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code and is not an exempt recipient within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6049-4(c), shall deliver to the Parent Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Service Form W-9, or any successor form that such person is entitled to provide, establishing that the Lender is not subject to U.S. Federal backup withholding Tax. (h) Cooperation in Contesting Indemnified Taxes. If the Parent Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Indemnified Taxes (including Other Taxes) for which additional amounts have been paid under this Section 2.17, the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, shall cooperate with the Parent Borrower in challenging such Indemnified Taxes (including Other Taxes) at the Borrowers’ expense, if so requested by the Parent Borrower in writing; provided that, in the sole discretion, exercised in good faith, of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, doing so would not materially prejudice the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, and the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender would not be required to disclose any information it considers proprietary or make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Parent Borrower or any other Person. (i) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes (including Other Taxes) as to which it has been indemnified by an Obligor or with respect to which an Obligor has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the applicable Obligor an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the applicable Obligor under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes (including Other Taxes) giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the applicable Obligor, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, shall repay the amount paid over to the applicable Obligor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or an Issuing Lender to disclose any information it considers proprietary or make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Obligor or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (i), in no event will the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender be required to pay any amount to an Obligor pursuant to this clause (i) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender 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. (j) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Documents. SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs. (a) Payments by the Obligors. Each Obligor shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise), or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein), prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest -43-

thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Loan Document and except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Lender or a Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03, which shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in Dollars. (b) Application of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay all fees then due, and all costs and expenses then due or reimbursable, to the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such, under any Loan Document, (ii) second, to pay all principal and interest then due hereunder in respect of the Swingline Loans, ratably between the Swingline Lenders in accordance with the amounts of such principal and interest then due to the Swingline Lenders, (iii) third, to reimburse all unreimbursed LC Disbursements and to pay all letter of credit fronting fees, if any, then due hereunder, ratably between the Issuing Lenders entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts thereof then due to the Issuing Lenders, (iv) fourth, to pay all other interest and other fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such interest and fees then due to such parties, and (v) fifth, to pay all other principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such principal then due to such parties. (c) Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein (for the avoidance of doubt, as this Agreement is in effect from time to time), including Sections 2.20(d) and 2.21: (i) each payment of commitment fees under Section 2.12(a) and letter of credit fees under Section 2.12(b) shall be made for account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments under Section 2.09 shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments (or, in the case of any such payment of commitment fees at a time when the Commitments shall have terminated or expired, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Credit Exposure); (ii) each Syndicated Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments (in the case of the making of Syndicated Loans) or their respective Loans that are to be included in such Borrowing (in the case of conversions and continuations of Loans); (iii) each payment or prepayment of any Syndicated Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid or prepaid Syndicated Borrowing; (iv) each Swingline Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata between the Swingline Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Swingline Commitments; and (v) each payment or prepayment of any Swingline Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Swingline Loans included in the repaid or prepaid Swingline Borrowing. (d) Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If (i) 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 Loans (other than a Competitive Loan) or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans (other than Competitive Loans) and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (A) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and (B) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans (other than Competitive Loans) and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of 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 amounts of principal of and accrued interest on their Loans (other than Competitive Loans) and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans or (ii) any Swingline 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 Swingline Loans resulting in such Swingline Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by the other Swingline Lender, then the Swingline Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (A) notify the Administrative Agent and the other Swingline Lender of such fact and (B) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Swingline Loans of the other Swingline Lender to the extent necessary so that the amount of all such payments shall be shared by the Swingline Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amounts of principal of and accrued interest on their Swingline Loans, provided that: -44-

(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by any Obligor pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, as this Agreement is in effect from time to time), including Sections 2.09(e)(iii) and 2.20(d), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any Eligible Assignee. Each Obligor consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Obligor rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Obligor in the amount of such participation. (e) Payments by the Borrowers; Presumptions by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Parent Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or an Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. (f) Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder to or for the account of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Swingline Lender, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations in respect of such payment until all such unsatisfied obligations have been discharged or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to Sections 2.05(c), 2.06(e), 2.06(f), 2.07(b), 2.18(e) and 10.03(c)), in each case in such order as shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion. SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or requires the Borrowers to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation. (b) Replacement of Lenders. If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, (ii) the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, (iii) any Lender has become a Defaulting Lender, (iv) any Lender has become a Non-Extending Lender or (v) any Lender does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of such Lender or each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders affected thereby (so long as the consent of the Required Lenders -45-

has been obtained), then the Parent Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.04), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payment pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents (other than any outstanding Competitive Loans held by it) to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that: (A) the Parent Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure is being assigned, each Issuing Lender and each Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld; (B) Section 10.04; the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in (C) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans (other than Competitive Loans) and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans that have been funded by such Lender, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts (except Competitive Loans) payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.16) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts); (D) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment and delegation will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; (E) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from any Lender becoming a Non-Extending Lender, the assignee shall be an Additional Commitment Lender and, upon the effectiveness of any such assignment and delegation, such assignee shall be deemed to have consented to the extension of the Commitment Termination Date requested in the relevant Extension Request (and, if such assignment and delegation shall become effective after the relevant Extension Effective Date, the Commitment Termination Date with respect to such Additional Commitment Lender (insofar as relating to the interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents so assigned and delegated) shall automatically extend to the date specified in the relevant Extension Request); and (F) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law. 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 the Parent Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment and delegation required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment and delegation need not be a party thereto. SECTION 2.20. Extension of Commitment Termination Date. (a) The Parent Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders) not more than 90 days and not less than 30 days prior to each anniversary of the date hereofAmendment No. 1 Effective Date (or if such anniversary date is not a Business Day, the Business Day next succeeding such anniversary), request (each, an “Extension Request”) that the Lenders extend the Commitment Termination Date then in effect (or, if at such time there shall exist different Commitment Termination Dates for the Lenders hereunder, the latest applicable Commitment Termination Date then in effect) (the “Existing Commitment Termination Date”) for an additional one year (the date on which any such extension shall become effective is referred to herein as an “Extension Effective Date”); provided that only two Extension Requests may be requested hereunder. Each Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by notice to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent given not later than the 20th day (or such later day as shall be acceptable to the Parent Borrower) following the date of the Parent Borrower’s notice, -46-

advise the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension; provided that any Lender that does not so advise the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have rejected such Extension Request (any such Lender which shall have rejected or is deemed to have rejected such extension being a “Non-Extending Lender”). The election of any Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation hereunder to extend its Commitment. (b) The Parent Borrower shall have the right, at any time on or prior to, or at any time following, the relevant Extension Effective Date, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to replace any Non-Extending Lender with one or more Additional Commitment Lenders in accordance with Section 2.19(b). If requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, each such Additional Commitment Lender shall enter into an agreement with the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lender shall reconfirm its Commitment hereunder so assumed from the relevant Non-Extending Lender and, in the case of any such replacement becoming effective after the relevant Extension Effective Date, reconfirm the extension of the Commitment Termination Date applicable thereto as contemplated by clause (E) of Section 2.19(b). (c) If (and only if) the total of the Commitments of the Lenders that have agreed in connection with any Extension Request to extend the Existing Commitment Termination Date and (if applicable) the Commitments of the Additional Commitment Lender(s) that shall have replaced any Non-Extending Lender as contemplated by paragraph (b) above shall, in the aggregate, be at least 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Extension Effective Date, then, effective as of the Extension Effective Date, the Commitment Termination Date, but only with respect to each Lender that has agreed to so extend its Commitment and (if applicable) each Additional Commitment Lender that has replaced a Non-Extending Lender (and to Commitments and Loans of each such Lender and Additional Commitment Lender), shall be extended to the date that is one year after the then Existing Commitment Termination Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day); provided that the extension of the Existing Commitment Termination Date, and the occurrence of the Extension Effective Date, shall not be effective with respect to any Lender unless as of the Extension Effective Date: (i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (ii) the representations and warranties of the Obligors set forth in Article IV and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects, on and as of the Extension Effective Date as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date); (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower, dated as of the Extension Effective Date, stating that the conditions with respect to such extension have been satisfied; and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall have received such evidence and other related documents as it may reasonably request with respect to the authorization of the Parent Borrower of such extension and its obligations hereunder as so extended. Upon the effectiveness of such extension, the Administrative Agent shall record the relevant information in the Register and give prompt notice of such extension to the Parent Borrower and the Lenders. (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) with respect to any Non-Extending Lender, the Commitment Termination Date for such Lender shall remain unchanged (and the Commitment of such Lender shall terminate, the Loans made by such Lender to the Borrowers hereunder shall mature and be payable by the Borrowers, and all other amounts owing to such Non-Extending Lender hereunder shall be payable, on such date), and on such date the Borrowers shall also make such other prepayments of Loans as shall be required in order that, after giving effect to the termination of the Commitments of, and all payments to, the Non-Extended Lenders pursuant to this sentence, the sum of (x) the outstanding aggregate principal amount of all Loans and (y) the LC Exposure will not exceed the Commitments and (ii) the “Availability Period” and the “Commitment Termination Date” (without taking into consideration any extension pursuant to this Section 2.20), as such terms are used in reference to any Issuing Lender or any Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender or any Swingline Lender or any Swingline Loan made by such Swingline Lender, may not be extended without the prior written consent of such Issuing Lender and such Swingline Lender, as applicable (it being understood and agreed that, in the event any Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender shall not have consented to any such extension, (i) such Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, as applicable, shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender or a Swingline Lender, as applicable, hereunder through the Existing Commitment Termination Date (or the Availability Period determined on the basis thereof, as applicable), and thereafter shall have no obligation to make any Swingline Loans or to issue, amend, extend -47-

or renew any Letter of Credit (but shall, in each case, continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.05, 2.06, 2.13, 2.15, 10.03 and 10.09, as applicable as to Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans issued or made prior to such time), and (ii) the Borrowers shall cause the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender and the Swingline Exposure attributable to Swingline Loans made by such Swingline Lender to be zero no later than the day on which such LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure, as applicable, would have been required to have been reduced to zero in accordance with the terms hereof without giving effect to any effectiveness of the extension of the applicable Existing Commitment Termination Date pursuant to this Section (and, in any event, no later than such Existing Commitment Termination Date)). SECTION 2.21. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: (a) no Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee payable under Section 2.12(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender); (b) the Commitment, the Revolving Credit Exposure and the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Competitive Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or any other requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.02); provided that any amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 10.02, require the consent of such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms hereof; (c) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: (i) the Swingline Exposure (other than any portion thereof with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Section 2.05(c) and, in the case of any Defaulting Lender that is a Swingline Lender, other than the portion of such Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the definition of such term) and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender (other than any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Sections 2.06(e) and 2.06(f)) shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent that (A) the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure (in each case, excluding the portion thereof referred to above) does not exceed the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments and (B) after giving effect thereto, the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender shall not exceed the Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender; (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (A) first, prepay the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure that has not been reallocated as set forth in such clause and (B) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure that has not been reallocated as set forth in such clause in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.06(lm) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; (iii) if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay participation fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure for so long as such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized; -48-

(iv) if any portion of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the participation fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(b) shall be adjusted to give effect to such reallocation; (v) [reserved]; and (vi) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure that is subject to reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder, and all participation fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such portion of its LC Exposure, shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders (and allocated among them ratably based on the amount of such portion of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Lender) until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and (d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swingline Lender shall be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, unless in each case it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure, as applicable, will be fully covered by the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral provided by the Borrowers in accordance with clause (c) above, and participating interests in any such funded Swingline Loan or in any such issued, amended, renewed or extended Letter of Credit will be allocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with clause (c)(i) above (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein). In the event that a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Lender Parent of any Lender shall have occurred following the date hereofAmendment No. 1 Effective Date and for so long as such Bankruptcy Event shall continue, no Swingline Lender shall be required to fund any Swingline Loan, and no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, unless such Swingline Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements (including arrangements referred to in clause (c) above, treating such Lender as if it were a Defaulting Lender (with each Lender hereby agreeing to such arrangements)) with the Borrowers or the applicable Lender satisfactory to such Swingline Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder. In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower, each Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender each agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par (plus pay any break funding amounts, determined in accordance with Section 2.16, to the extent such purchase occurs on a date other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to thereto) such of the Syndicated Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. ARTICLE III Guarantee SECTION 3.01. The Guarantee. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, guarantee to each Lender, each other holder of a Guaranteed Obligation (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest on the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and all fees, indemnification payments and other amounts whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, now or hereafter from time to time owing to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent by a Borrower under this Agreement and by any Obligor (other than, with respect to any Subsidiary Guarantor, any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor) under any of the other Loan Documents, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof and including all interest, fees and expenses -49-

accrued or incurred subsequent to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings with respect to a Borrower, whether or not such interest, fees or expenses are allowed as a claim in such proceeding (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby further jointly and severally agree that if a Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Subsidiary Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. SECTION 3.02. Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under Section 3.01 are absolute and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section that the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, joint and several, under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above: (i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Subsidiary Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; (ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be done or omitted; (iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or (iv) any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and hereby expressly waives any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Borrower under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. SECTION 3.03. Reinstatement. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Article shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of a Borrower in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and the Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree that they will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. -50-

SECTION 3.04. Subrogation. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that until the payment and satisfaction in full of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement they shall not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by them of their guarantee in Section 3.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against any Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. SECTION 3.05. Remedies. The Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VIII (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article VIII) for purposes of Section 3.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by a Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for purposes of Section 3.01. SECTION 3.06. Instrument for the Payment of Money. To the fullest extent permitted by N.Y. Civ. Prac. L&R § 3213 and other applicable law, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or the Administrative Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Subsidiary Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring motion action under N.Y.

The payment obligation of a Subsidiary Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of this Article and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.

SECTION 3.09. General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 3.01 would otherwise, taking into account the provisions of Section 3.08, be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law on account of the amount of its liability under Section 3.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding.

SECTION 6.04. Payment of Obligations.

The Parent Borrower will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws (including ERISA and Environmental Laws) and all rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. -58-

SECTION 6.08. New Specified Subsidiaries to Become Subsidiary Guarantors. With respect to each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) that becomes a Specified Subsidiary after the Effective Date, the Parent Borrower will (a) within 30 Business Days after such Subsidiary becomes a Specified Subsidiary, cause such Subsidiary to duly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Guarantee Assumption Agreement properly completed for such Subsidiary and in such number of counterparts as may reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent and (b) deliver to the Administrative Agent within a reasonable time (not exceeding 30 days) after its request therefor, such proof of corporate action, incumbency of officers, opinions of counsel and other documents consistent with those delivered by the Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to Section 5.01 on the Effective Date as may reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent. Subject to Section 3.11, nothing in this Agreement shall obligate the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to release or terminate the Guarantee under Article III of this Agreement or any Guarantee Assumption Agreement of any Subsidiary Guarantor which ceases to be a Specified Subsidiary. SECTION 6.09. Designation of Subsidiaries. The Parent Borrower may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default or Event of Default (and so long as no Default or Event of Default is then continuing); provided that the Parent Borrower may not designate a Subsidiary as Unrestricted if it owns any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of, or owns or holds a Lien on, any assets of the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Subsidiary to be so designated) and after giving pro forma effect to such designation, the Parent Borrower would have been in compliance with Section 7.06 as of the last day of the Measurement Period most recently then ended. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Agreement and any Indebtedness, Liens or Investments of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower as of such date and, if such Indebtedness, Liens or Investments is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under the terms of this Agreement, the Parent Borrower will be in default of such covenant. The Parent Borrower may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness, Liens and Investments by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (x) such Indebtedness, Liens and Investments are permitted under the terms of this Agreement, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable Measurement Period and (y) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation. ARTICLE VII Negative Covenants Until the Commitments have expired or terminated and the principal of and interest on each Loan and all fees payable hereunder have been paid in full, and all Letters of Credit have expired or terminated (or have been cash collateralized or backstopped on terms reasonably satisfactory to each applicable Issuing Lender) and all LC Disbursements shall have been reimbursed, each Obligor (as applicable) covenants and agrees with the Lenders that: SECTION 7.01.

ARTICLE IX Agency SECTION 9.01. Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement and its successors to serve as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for -65-

the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, and neither the Parent Borrower nor any other Obligor shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of such provisions. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender, an Issuing Lender or a Swingline Lender as any other Lender, Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or the Swingline Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties thereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any other similar term) in this Agreement or any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that 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) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or be contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (with such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment). The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Parent Borrower, a Lender, an Issuing Lender or a Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (a) any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (c) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (d) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (e) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from any confirmation of the Revolving Credit Exposure or the component amounts thereof. -66-

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (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 (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the signatory, sender or authenticator thereof). The Administrative Agent also may rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being maker thereof), and may act upon any such statement prior to receipt of written confirmation thereof. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or amendment of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Lender sufficiently prior to the making of such Loan o r the issuance, extension, renewal or amendment of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for an Obligor), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all 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 the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The 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 the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub -agents. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Parent Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Parent Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, or required if an Event of Default under clauses (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VIII has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States of America, or an Affiliate of any such bank. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above, provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Parent Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Sections 2.17(e) and 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. Each Lender, each Issuing Lender and each Swingline Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender, any Issuing Lender, any Swingline Lender or any -67-

Arranger 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, each Issuing Lender and each Swingline Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender, any Issuing Lender, any Swingline Lender or any Arranger or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Each Lender, each Issuing Lender and each Swingline Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or an agreement to provide a new Commitment pursuant to Section 2.09(e)(ii)(B) pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, this Agreement and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date. SECTION 9.02. Bookrunners, Etc.Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents and the Documentation AgentAgents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender, an Issuing Lender or a Swingline Lender hereunder, but shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.

Notices delivered through electronic communications shall be effective as provided in said paragraph (b). (b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications (including e-mail and Internet and intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices under Article II to any Lender or Issuing Lender if such Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Parent Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and -68-

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. Notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return email or other written acknowledgement), and notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website to the extent provided in this paragraph shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its email address as described above, of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor, provided that, in each case, if such e-mail is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient. (c) Change of Address, Etc. Any party hereto may change its address, fax number or email address for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto (or, in the case of any such change by a Lender, by notice to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent). (d) Platform. The Parent Borrower and the other Obligors agree that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communication by posting such Communication on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak, ClearPar or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”). The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties warrants, or shall be deemed to warrant, the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including 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, or shall be deemed to be made, by the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties have any liability to the Obligors, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any other Person 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 any Obligor’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through the Platform. SECTION 10.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No Deemed Waivers; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Obligor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. (b) Amendments. Except as provided for in Sections 2.09 and 2.20, neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Parent Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall: (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement outstanding to any Lender or reduce the rate of interest thereon (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default -69-

increase in interest rates pursuant to Section 2.13(d)), or reduce any fees payable to any Lender hereunder, without the written consent of such Lender, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement outstanding to any Lender, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable to any Lender hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment of any Lender, without the written consent of such Lender, (iv) change Section 2.18(b), 2.18(c) or 2.18(d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the percentage in the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, or (vi) release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their guarantee obligations under Article III without the written consent of each Lender, and provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Swingline Lender, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing (but subject to the immediately preceding proviso), (A) any amendment of the definition of the term “Applicable Rate” pursuant to the last sentence of such definition shall require only the writte n consent of the Parent Borrower and the Required Lenders, (B) no consent with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement shall be required of any Defaulting Lender, except with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the first proviso of this paragraph and then only in the event such Defaulting Lender shall be directly affected by such amendment, waiver or other modification, (C) the Administrative Agent may enter into one or more security agreements (including mortgages and pledge agreements) in connection with any grant of a security interest securing Indebtedness under this Agreement as contemplated by Sections 7.02(h) and 7.04 without the consent of any Lender and (D) this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower (x) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parent Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders may (i) reallocate the LC Sublimits among the Issuing Lenders without any further action or consent of any other par ty to any Loan Document and (ii) the Parent Borrower, Administrative Agent and any Issuing Lender may agree to increase or decrease the LC Sublimit of such Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall promptly confirm to the Parent Borrower, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders the amount and the effective date of the revised sublimits. (c) Administrative Agent Execution. The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the written concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, waivers or other modifications on behalf of such Lender. Any amendment, waiver or other modification effected in accordance with this Section 10.02 shall be binding upon each Person that is at the time thereof a Lender and each Person that subsequently becomes a Lender. SECTION 10.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Documentation AgentAgents, the Syndication Agents and each of their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one firm of counsel for the -70-

foregoing), in connection with the syndication of the credit facility provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one firm of counsel (and one firm of local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders and of any separate counsel (including local counsel) that may be required in light of any conflicting interests among the foregoing parties) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. (b) Indemnification by the Obligors. The Obligors shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), the Arrangers, the Documentation AgentAgents, the Syndication Agents, each Lender and each Issuing Lender, and each Affiliate of any of the foregoing Persons and their respective officers, directors, employees, advisors and agents (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”), against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable and reasonably documented fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Indemnitees and of any separate counsel that may be required in light of any conflicting interests among Indemnitees), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Parent Borrower or any other Obligor arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) as relates to any of the foregoing, any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Parent Borrower or any other Obligor, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct or material breach of any obligation under any Loan Document of such Indemnitee or any of its Controlled Affiliates, Persons under common Control or Controlling Persons, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or advisors or (y) do not result from an act or omission of the Parent Borrower or any of its Affiliates and have been brought by such Indemnitee against any other Indemnitee (other than any claims against such Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an Arranger, Agent, Issuing Lender, Swingline Lender or any similar role hereunder). (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Obligors for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), an Issuing Lender, a Swingline Lender or an Arranger, or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Lender or such Swingline Lender, or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Lender or such Swingline Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Lender or such Swingline Lender in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph are several obligations. -71-

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof, provided that nothing in this sentence shall diminish the obligations of any Obligor under paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section or any other expense reimbursement or indemnity obligations of any Obligor set forth herein. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by any recipient of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems, except to the extent they are determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee or any of its Controlled Affiliates, Persons under common Control or Controlling Persons, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or advisors, or for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. (e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor. SECTION 10.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) Assignments Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) other than as expressly provided in Section 7.03(a)(i), the Parent Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Parent Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section), the Arrangers, the Documentation AgentAgents, the Syndication Agents and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the sub-agents of the Administrative Agent and the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. (b) Assignments by Lenders. (i) Assignments Generally. Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of: (A) the Parent Borrower; provided that (x) no consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender or if an Event of Default described in any of clauses (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VIII has occurred and is continuing and (y) the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice (which may be by e-mail) to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after delivery of a written request for its consent to such assignment (which delivery shall be by a nationally recognized overnight courier or, if delivered to each of the General Counsel and the Treasurer of the Parent Borrower, by .pdf file or similar electronic transmission); (B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of the Commitments or Syndicated Loans to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; (C) each Issuing Lender; and -72-

(D) each Swingline Lender. (ii) conditions: Certain Conditions to Assignments.

(iii) Effectiveness of Assignments. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section. (iv) Maintenance of Register. The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, any Issuing Lender and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. (v) Acceptance of Assignments by Administrative Agent. Upon its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to a Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants), the assignee’s completed -73-

Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(c), 2.06(e), 2.06(f), 2.07(b), 2.18(d) or 10.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. Each assigning Lender and the assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the Administrative Agent that all written consents required by this Section with respect thereto (other than the consent of the Administrative Agent) have been obtained and that such Assignment and Assumption is otherwise duly completed and in proper form (it being acknowledged that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation (and shall incur no liability) with respect to obtaining (or confirming the receipt) of any such written consent or with respect to the form of (or any defect in) such Assignment and Assumption, any such duty and obligation being solely with the assigning Lender and the assignee), and each assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the assigning Lender and the Administrative Agent that such assignee is an Eligible Assignee. (c) Participations. (i) Participations Generally. Any Lender may, without the consent of any Obligor, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more Eligible Assignees (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Obligors, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 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 the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that directly and adversely affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Obligors agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Sections 2.17(f) and 2.17(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Sections 2.17(f) and 2.17(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 paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(d) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender selling participations shall keep a register (the “Participant Register”) in which it shall record the name and address of each Participant to which such Lender sells participations and the amount and terms of such participations, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary of the Borrowers; provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. (ii) Limitations on Rights of Participants. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant except to the extent that such entitlement to a greater payment results from a Change in Law after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. -74-

(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 without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. SECTION 10.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Obligors herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, any Lender or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any Loan Document is executed and delivered or any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any LC Exposure is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17, 2.18(f), 3.03 and 10.03 and Article IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. SECTION 10.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. (a) Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

Obligations were treated as a guarantee for purposes of the definition of “Excluded Swap Obligation”), regardless of the manner or amount in which proceeds of Loans are used, allocated, shared or disbursed by or among the Borrowers themselves, or the manner in which an Agent and/or any Lender accounts for such Loans or other extensions of credit on its books and records. Each Borrower shall be liable for all amounts due to an Agent and/or any Lender from the Borrowers under this Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives Loans or other extensions of credit hereunder or the amount of such Loans and extensions of credit received or the manner in which such Agent and/or such Lender accounts for such Loans or other extensions of credit on its books and records. Each Borrower’s obligations with respect to Loans and other extensions of credit made to it, and such Borrower’s obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower hereunder with respect to Loans made to the other Borrowers hereunder shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such obligations shall be primary obligations of such Borrower. The Borrowers acknowledge and expressly agree with the Agents and each Lender that the joint and several liability of each Borrower is required solely as a condition to, and is given solely as inducement for and in consideration of, credit or accommodations extended or to be extended under the CreditLoan Documents to any or all of the other Borrowers and is not required or given as a condition of extensions of credit to such Borrower. Each Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unconditional irrespective of (i) the validity or enforceability, avoidance, or subordination of the obligations of any other Borrower or of any promissory note or other document evidencing all or any part of the obligations of any other Borrower, (ii) the absence of any attempt to collect the obligations from any other Borrower, or any other security therefor, or the absence of any other action to enforce the same, (iii) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance, or granting of any indulgence by an Agent and/or any Lender with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the obligations of any other Borrower, or any part thereof, or any other agreement now or hereafter executed by any other Borrower and delivered to an Agent and/or any Lender, (iv) the failure by an Agent and/or any Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the obligations of any other Borrower, (v) an Agent’s and/or any Lender’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (vi) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any other Borrower, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (vii) the disallowance of all or any portion of an Agent’s and/or any Lender’s claim(s) for the repayment of the obligations of any other Borrower under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (viii) any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or of any other Borrower. With respect to any Borrower’s obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder with respect to Revolving Credit Loans or other extensions of credit made to any of the other Borrowers hereunder, such Borrower waives, until the obligations shall have been paid in full and this Agreement shall have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which an Agent and/or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against any other Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to an Agent and/or any Lender to secure payment of the obligations or any other liability of any Borrower to an Agent and/or any Lender. Upon any Event of Default, the Agents may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the obligations, without first proceeding against any other Borrower or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the obligations. Each Borrower consents and agrees that the Agents shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the obligations. SECTION 10.18. Contribution and Indemnification Between the Borrowers. Each Borrower is obligated to repay the obligations as a joint and several obligor under this Agreement. To the extent that any Borrower shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the obligations constituting Loans made to another Borrower hereunder or other obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower (an “Accommodation Payment”), then the Borrower making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Borrowers in an amount, for each of such other Borrowers, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Borrower’s Allocable Amount (as defined below) and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrowers. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Borrower hereunder without (a) rendering such Borrower “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (b) leaving such Borrower with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c) leaving such -79-

Borrower unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA. All rights and claims of contribution, indemnification, and reimbursement under this Section 10.18 shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations. The provisions of this Section 10.18 shall, to the extent expressly inconsistent with any provision in any CreditLoan Document, supersede such inconsistent provision. SECTION 10.19. Agency of the Parent Borrower for Each Other Borrower. Each other Borrower irrevocably appoints the Parent Borrower as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement, including the giving and receipt of notices and execution and delivery of all documents, instruments, and certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto. Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification, or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by all or any of the Borrowers or acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by the Parent Borrower, whether or not any other Borrower join therein, and the Agents and the Lenders shall have no duty or obligation to make further inquiry with respect to the authority of the Parent Borrower under this Section 10.19; provided that nothing in this Section 10.19 shall limit the effectiveness of, or the right of the Agents and the Lenders to rely upon, any notice, document, instrument, certificate, acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action delivered by any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement. SECTION 10.20. Dillar d ’s I ns ur ance Co mp an y Li mited . For the avoidance of doubt, the assets of Dillard's Insurance Company Limited, a company registered and existing under the laws of Bermuda (“DICL”), is not and shall not be required to be pledged as collateral under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and DICL is not and shall not be deemed to be an Obligor or Subsidiary Guarantor. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that at all times, including, without limitation, (a) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (b) if the Lenders become judgment creditors and seek to attach or levy upon any assets of the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to enforce any such judgment, DICL will continue to be operated in compliance with the regulatory guidelines required by the Bermuda Monetary Authority and the Arkansas Insurance Department. SECTION 10.21. Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender that is an EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write -Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto to any Lender that is an EEA Financial Institution; and (b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority. -80-
