Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

As previously reported, on October 9, 2019, USA Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Debt Commitment Letter with Antara Capital Master Fund LP (“Antara”), pursuant to which Antara committed to extend to the Company a $30 million senior secured term loan facility, subject to various closing conditions, including the signing of definitive loan documentation on or before October 31, 2019. As also previously reported, on October 9, 2019, the Company sold to Antara 3,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $5.25 per share for a total of $19,950,000 pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement between the Company and Antara.

On October 31, 2019, the Company entered into a Financing Agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) by and among the Company, as the borrower, its subsidiaries, as guarantors, Antara, as the lender, and Cortland Capital Market Services LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the lender (the “Agent”). Pursuant to the Financing Agreement, the Company borrowed $15 million on November 1, 2019, and subject to the terms of the Financing Agreement, may borrow the remaining $15 million in one draw at any time during the period commencing on July 31, 2020 and terminating on April 30, 2021. The outstanding principal amount of the loan will bear interest at 9.75% per annum, payable monthly in arrears. The proceeds of the initial $15 million draw were used by the Company to repay the outstanding balance of the revolving line of credit loan due to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”) in the amount of $10 million and to pay transaction expenses, and the Company intends to utilize the balance for working capital and general corporate purposes. The outstanding principal amount of the loan must be paid in full by no later than the maturity date of October 31, 2024.

The Company’s obligations under the Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Financing Agreement, the “Loan Documents”) are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries.  In addition, all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ obligations under the Financing Agreement and other Loan Documents are secured by liens and security interests in and to substantially all of the assets, including intellectual property, of the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of October 31, 2019, by and among the Company, the subsidiaries of the Company, and the Agent, and certain other collateral documents.

In addition to containing customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, the Financing Agreement requires the Company to maintain a minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Financing Agreement) and a minimum Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Financing Agreement). The Company is required to pay prepayment premiums under certain circumstances as set forth in the Financing Agreement ranging from 0% to 5% depending on the time of the principal prepayment. The Company is also required to pay a commitment termination fee equal to 3% of the second tranche under certain circumstances, including in the event that the Company does not draw down the second tranche during the availability window. The Company is required to make mandatory principal prepayments of the loan under certain circumstances, including certain percentages of any Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Financing Agreement) for each fiscal year of the Company.

The Financing Agreement also contains customary events of default, including, among other things, payment defaults, breaches of covenants, and bankruptcy and insolvency events, subject to grace periods in certain instances. Upon an event of default, Antara may declare all of the outstanding principal and unpaid interest due under the loan and all other outstanding obligations of the Company under the Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable, and exercise any other rights provided for under the Loan Documents, including foreclosing on the collateral securing the obligations under the Loan Documents.

The description of the Financing Agreement in this Current Report on Form 8-K does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Financing Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference.


Item 1.02.
Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 1, 2019, and as referred to in Item 1.01 above, the Company paid all amounts due in respect of principal, interest, and fees, and satisfied all of its obligations under the Credit Agreement dated as of November 9, 2017, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”),  by and among the Company, its subsidiaries as guarantors, and JPMorgan, as lender. Pursuant to such payment, the Credit Agreement, and all commitments of JPMorgan thereunder, were terminated.

(b)          Register.  Administrative Agent shall maintain at its Principal Office a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders and the principal amount of the Term Loans (and stated interest therein) of each Lender from time to time (the "Register").  The Register shall be available for inspection by Company or Agents at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the Term Loans, any assignment or transfer of Loans and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Term Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers and each Lender, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Borrower's Obligations in respect of any Loan.  Each Borrower hereby designates the entity serving as Administrative Agent to serve as such Borrower's non-fiduciary agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.5, and each Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent such entity serves in such capacity, the entity serving as Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates shall constitute "Indemnitees."
 
(c)          Notes.  If so requested by any Lender by written notice to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, or at any time thereafter, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 10.6) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Closing Date, promptly after Company's receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes.
 
Section 2.6.          Interest.
 
(a)          Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Term Loan shall bear interest at the Fixed Rate on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through the date of repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof.
 
(b)          Interest payable pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues.  In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan shall be excluded; provided, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day's interest shall be paid on that Loan.
 
- 34 -

(c)          Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Loan shall be payable in Cash and in arrears (i) on and to each Interest Payment Date applicable to that Loan, (ii) upon any prepayment of that Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid, (iii) at maturity, including final maturity and (iv) upon the occurrence and during the continuance or an Event of Default, including the failure to repay Obligations on the Term Loan Maturity Date, upon demand.
 
Section 2.7.         Default Interest.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Term Loans or any fees or other amounts owed hereunder (including any Prepayment Premium), shall thereafter bear interest (including post petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable on demand at a rate that is two percentage points per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in the case of any such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is two percentage points per annum in excess of the Fixed Rate).  Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.7 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of any Agent or any Lender.
 
Section 2.8.          Voluntary Prepayments.
 
(a)          Prepayment Mechanics.
 
(i)          Subject to clause (b) below, Borrowers may prepay Term Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part, in an aggregate minimum amount of $100,000 (each such payment, a “Voluntary Prepayment”).
 
(ii)        All such prepayments shall be made, together with the Prepayment Premium, and all interest then due on the principal amount being so prepaid, upon not less than one Business Day's irrevocable prior written notice given to Administrative Agent by 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date required (and Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of each such prepayment notice).  Upon the giving of any such notice, the principal amount of the Term Loans specified in such notice shall become irrevocably due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein.  Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 2.10.
 
(b)         Call Protection.
 
(i)          Each Voluntary Prepayment, each mandatory prepayment that becomes due pursuant to Section 2.9(a), (b), (c) or (d) and each payment that becomes due as a result of acceleration of the Term Loan Maturity Date pursuant to Section 8.1 or otherwise (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, as a result of Section 8.1(f) or (g) or as a result of applicable law) (each, an “Early Prepayment”) shall be accompanied by the Prepayment Premium in respect of such Early Prepayment and, if applicable, the Commitment Termination Fee.
 
(ii)        Borrowers hereby agree to pay the Prepayment Premium and any Commitment Termination Fee to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, as and when required in this Agreement, with respect to each Early Prepayment of Term Loans made under Section 2.8, Section 2.9 and/or the termination of the Subsequent Draw Commitment pursuant to Section 2.9(h) and Section 2.13, respectively, or any other acceleration of the Term Loans or any other Obligations or the termination of the Subsequent Draw Commitment in each case pursuant to Section 8.1 or otherwise (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, as a result of Section 8.1(f) or (g) or as a result of applicable law), in each case, with respect to the amount of the Early Prepayment of Term Loans repaid, prepaid, terminated, reduced, paid, redeemed, satisfied, distributed, discharged or accelerated (whether or not paid), concurrently with such repayment, prepayment, redemption, satisfaction, discharge or acceleration (whether or not paid) or the termination of the Subsequent Draw Commitment, as applicable.
 
- 35 -

(iii)        Any Prepayment Premium payable pursuant to this Section 2.8(b) and any Commitment Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 2.13 shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Lender as the result of the early repayment, prepayment, distribution, termination, reduction, payment, redemption, satisfaction, discharge or acceleration (whether or not paid) of its Term Loan and/or termination of the Subsequent Draw Commitment, as applicable, and Borrowers agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Lender’s lost profits as a result thereof.  Any prepayment, repayment, payment, satisfaction (whether in whole or in part), distribution, termination, reduction or discharge of the Term Loans (including, without limitation, by foreclosure (whether by power of sale or judicial proceeding) or by any other means) and/or termination of the Subsequent Draw Commitment, irrespective of whether such prepayment, repayment, payment, satisfaction, distribution, discharge, termination or reduction and/or termination of the Subsequent Draw Commitment occurs following any earlier maturity of the Term Loans, including, without limitation, pursuant to any voluntary or involuntary acceleration of the Term Loans or the termination of the Subsequent Draw Commitment in each case pursuant to Section 8.1 or otherwise (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, as a result of Section 8.1(f) or (g) or as a result of applicable law), or the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding or other proceeding pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws, or pursuant to a plan of reorganization, and including, without limitation, any prepayment, repayment, payment, termination, reduction, satisfaction, distribution or discharge of the Term Loans or the termination of the Subsequent Draw Commitment (a) pursuant to this Section 2.8 or Section 2.9, (b) after acceleration or termination thereof, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 8.1 (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, as a result of Section 8.1(f) or (g) or as a result of applicable law) or such amount otherwise becoming or being declared immediately due and payable or such commitment termination pursuant to the terms hereof and (c) whether before or after any acceleration of the Term Loans or termination of the Subsequent Draw Commitment pursuant to Section 8.1 (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, as a result of Section 8.1(f) or (g) or as a result of applicable law) shall, in each case be accompanied by, and there shall become due and payable automatically on the date of any of the foregoing, the Prepayment Premium and any Commitment Termination Fee, payable in Cash on the principal amount so prepaid or on the principal amount that has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable or the amount of the Subsequent Draw Commitment so terminated in each case pursuant to Section 8.1 or otherwise (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, as a result of Section 8.1(f) or (g) or as a result of applicable law), or in respect of which such claim in any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, judicial management or similar proceeding has arisen, or otherwise constituting the principal amount of the Term Loans prepaid, repaid, paid, satisfied, distributed, discharged, terminated, reduced or accelerated, or the Subsequent Draw Commitment so terminated, as applicable.
 
(iv)        Each Borrower acknowledges that Lender would not have extended the Term Loans without the inducement of the payment of the Prepayment Premium and the Commitment Termination Fee.  BORROWERS EXPRESSLY WAIVE (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM or THE COMMITMENT TERMINATION FEE.  Each Borrower expressly agrees (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Prepayment Premium and the Commitment Termination Fee is the product of a transaction on Arm’s Length Terms between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Prepayment Premium and the Commitment Termination Fee shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between Lenders and Borrowers giving specific consideration in the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents for such agreement to pay the Prepayment Premium and the Commitment Termination Fee; and (D) the Borrowers shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to herein, including in this Section 2.8(b).
 
- 36 -

(v)        If the Obligations are accelerated or the Subsequent Draw Commitment is terminated for any reason, including, without limitation, because of default, sale, transfer or encumbrance (including that by operation of law or otherwise (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, as a result of Section 8.1(f) or (g) or as a result of applicable law), the Prepayment Premium and the Commitment Termination Fee will also automatically and concurrently with such acceleration or termination become due and payable as though said indebtedness was voluntarily prepaid and the Subsequent Draw Commitments voluntarily cancelled and shall constitute part of the Obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Lender's lost profits as a result thereof.  The Prepayment Premium and the Commitment Termination Fee, as applicable, shall also be payable in the event the Obligations (and/or this Agreement or the Notes (if any) evidencing the Obligations) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means and the Subsequent Draw Commitments terminated.  THE BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW WHICH PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREPAYMENT PREMIUM AND THE COMMITMENT TERMINATION FEE ON THE TERM LOANS AND THE SUBSEQUENT DRAW COMMITMENT IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION OR TERMINATION.
 
Section 2.9.          Mandatory Prepayments.
 
(a)          Asset Sales.  No later than the first Business Day following the date of receipt by any Loan Party of any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales arising under Sections 6.9(e) in an aggregate amount in excess of $500,000, Borrowers shall prepay the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(a) in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Proceeds.  Each mandatory prepayment due hereunder shall be accompanied by the applicable Prepayment Premium pursuant to Section 2.8(b).

(h)        Termination of Subsequent Draw Commitment.   In the event that the Term Loans are prepaid in an aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 or more or otherwise come due for any reason prior to the making of a borrowing by the Borrowers under the Subsequent Draw Commitment, the Subsequent Draw Commitment will automatically terminate and be of no further force or effect on the date of such prepayment or coming due of all then outstanding Term Loans and Section 2.13 shall apply to such Subsequent Draw Commitment termination.

(i)          In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of clause (g) above and other provisions contained in any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that both such priority provisions in such documents shall be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other.  In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of clause (g) above shall control and govern.
 
Section 2.12.        Ratable Sharing.  Lenders hereby agree among themselves that, except as otherwise provided in the Collateral Documents with respect to amounts realized from the exercise of rights with respect to Liens on the Collateral, if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set off or banker's lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the "Aggregate Amounts Due" to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of a Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  Each Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker's lien, set off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by such Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.
 
- 41 -

Section 2.13.       Fees.  The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a commitment termination fee (a “Commitment Termination Fee”) equal to three percent (3.0%) of the Subsequent Draw Commitment if (a) the Borrowers elect in writing to terminate such commitment on or prior to the Subsequent Draw Termination Date, (b) such commitment otherwise is voluntarily or involuntarily terminated pursuant to this Agreement on or prior to the Subsequent Draw Termination Date, (c) the Borrowers voluntarily prepay the Term Loans made under the Term Loan Commitment on the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 or more (which, for the avoidance of doubt pursuant to Section 2.9(h), shall result in the automatic termination of the Subsequent Draw Commitment without any further action on the part of the Borrowers) or (d) the Borrowers fail to make the Subsequent Draw prior to the Subsequent Draw Termination Date; provided that the failure of the Borrowers to make any such Subsequent Draw shall not be attributable to the non-satisfaction of either Section 3.2(a)(v) or Section 3.2(a)(vi), and provided further that the Required Lenders shall not have waived any such non-satisfaction pursuant to Section 10.5.  The Commitment Termination Fee shall be immediately due and payable on the date of termination of the Subsequent Draw Commitment (and fully earned and nonrefundable as of such date) other than in connection with a borrowing of the Subsequent Draw pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.  In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Agents agency fees as agreed in the Fee Letter.
 
Section 2.14.        Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.
 
(a)         Compensation for Increased Costs and Taxes.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.15 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law):  (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other than Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender; or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder.  Such Lender shall deliver to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this clause (a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.
 
- 42 -

(c)         Tax Indemnification.  The Loan Parties hereby jointly and severally indemnify and agree to hold each Agent and Lender harmless from and against all Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes imposed on any amounts payable under this Section 2.15) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto paid by such Person, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.  Such indemnification shall be paid within ten days from the date on which any Agent or Lender makes written demand therefor specifying in reasonable detail the nature and amount of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes.
 
(d)          Evidence of Exemption from U.S. Withholding Tax.
 
(i)          Each Lender that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for United States federal income tax purposes (a "Non-US Lender") shall deliver to Administrative Agent (for transmission to Company), on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or on or prior to the date such Person becomes a Lender hereunder, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Administrative Agent (in its reasonable exercise of its discretion), (i) two executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments), W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, or W-8ECI (or any successor forms), as applicable, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender and, to the extent such Lender is eligible, such form shall note that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding, or is subject to a reduced deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents, and (ii) if such Lender is claiming exemption from United States federal income tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, a Certificate Regarding Non-Bank Status, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender.  Each Lender required to deliver any forms or certificates with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to this clause (d) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms or certificates, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms or certificates obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall deliver to Administrative Agent (for transmission to Company) two updated executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments thereto), W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, or W-8ECI, as applicable, and, if applicable, a Certificate Regarding Non-Bank Status (or any successor forms), as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, or notify Administrative Agent and Company of its inability to deliver any such forms or certificates.
 
(ii)        If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States 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 Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Company and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Requirements of Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrowers and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this subclause (ii), FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
 
- 44 -

(iii)        Each Lender that is a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for United States federal income tax purposes shall deliver to Administrative Agent (for transmission to Company), on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each such Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or on or prior to the date such Person becomes a Lender hereunder, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Administrative Agent (in its reasonable exercise of its discretion), two executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms) properly completed and duly executed by such Lender to establish that such Lender is not subject to United States backup withholding taxes with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents.
 
(e)         Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.15 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (e) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (e), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (e) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
 
(f)         Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6(h) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (f).
 
- 45 -

(g)        Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
 
Section 2.16.       Obligation to Mitigate.  Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Term Loans becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.14 or 2.15, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions through another office of such Lender, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.15 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Loans through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Term Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.16 unless Borrowers agree to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described above.  A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.16 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Each of the Lenders and the Loan Parties hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.
 
THE PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE PLATFORM AND 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 BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE PLATFORM.  “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section 5.1, including through the Platform.
 
- 62 -

Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.
 
The Administrative Agent shall store the Communications on the Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.
 
Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.
 
Section 5.2.        Existence.  Except as otherwise permitted under Section 6.9, each Loan Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence and all rights and Governmental Authorizations, qualifications, franchises, licenses and permits material to its business and to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted; provided that no Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to preserve any such existence, right or Governmental Authorizations, qualifications, franchise, licenses and permits if such Person's Board of Directors (or similar governing body) shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of such Person, and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to such Person or to Lenders.
 
Section 5.3.         Payment of Taxes and Claims.  Except as set forth on Schedule 4.11, each Loan Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, file all federal tax returns and other material tax returns required to be filed by such Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries and pay all Taxes imposed upon it or any of its properties or assets or in respect of any of its income, businesses or franchises before any penalty or fine accrues thereon, and all claims (including claims for labor, services, materials and supplies) for sums that have become due and payable and that by law have or may become a Lien upon any of its properties or assets, prior to the time when any penalty or fine shall be incurred with respect thereto; provided no such Tax or claim need be paid if it is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently conducted, so long as (a) adequate reserve or other appropriate provision, as shall be required in conformity with GAAP, shall have been made therefor, and (b) in the case of a Tax or claim which has or may become a Lien against any of the Collateral, such contest proceedings conclusively operate to stay imposition of any penalty, fine or Lien resulting from the non-payment thereof.  No Loan Party will, nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, file or consent to the filing of any consolidated income tax return with any Person (other than Company or any of its Subsidiaries).  No election or other action (including merger, conversion or otherwise) will be made to change the tax characterization of Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b)         Each of the insurance policies required to be maintained under this Section 5.5 shall provide for at least thirty (30) days' (or ten (10) days’ in the case of nonpayment of premiums) prior written notice to Agents of the cancellation or substantial modification thereof.  Receipt of such notice shall entitle Agents (but Agents shall not be obligated) to renew any such policies, cause the coverages and amounts thereof to be maintained at levels required pursuant to this Section 5.5 or otherwise to obtain similar insurance in place of such policies, in each case at the expense of the Loan Parties.
 
(c)          In the event that the Lenders once in any six month period reasonably determine that insurance coverage maintained by Company and its Subsidiaries on or after the Closing Date does not satisfy the requirements of clause (a) above in any material respect, then within 60 days following the receipt by Company of written notice from the Agents of the insurance coverage deficiencies identified by the Lenders, Company shall deliver to the Agents satisfactory evidence of insurance in force that fully rectifies such deficiencies.

ARTICLE VII
 
GUARANTY
 
Section 7.1.         Guaranty of the Obligations.  Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2, Guarantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty for the ratable benefit of the Beneficiaries the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)) (collectively, the "Guaranteed Obligations").
 
Section 7.2.         Contribution by Guarantors.  All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty.  Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of such date, such Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Guarantor's Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date.  "Fair Share" means, with respect to any Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Guarantor, to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Guarantors multiplied by, (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.  "Fair Share Contribution Amount" means, with respect to any Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law; provided solely for purposes of calculating the "Fair Share Contribution Amount" with respect to any Guarantor for purposes of this Section 7.2, any assets or liabilities of such Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Guarantor.  "Aggregate Payments" means, with respect to any Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (A) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including, without limitation, in respect of this Section 7.2), minus (B) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Guarantor from the other Guarantors as contributions under this Section 7.2.  The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Guarantor.  The allocation among Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 7.2 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Guarantor hereunder.  Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 7.2.
 
- 73 -

Section 7.3.         Payment by Guarantors.  Subject to Section 7.2, Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of Borrowers to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), Guarantors will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash, to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for Borrowers becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Borrowers for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to Beneficiaries as aforesaid.
 
Section 7.4.         Liability of Guarantors Absolute.  Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows:
 
(a)          this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectability.  This Guaranty is a primary obligation of each Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety;
 
(b)          any Agent may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between a Borrower and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

- 74 -

(c)        the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Borrowers and the obligations of any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the obligations of Borrowers, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against any Borrower or any of such other guarantors and whether or not a Borrower is joined in any such action or actions;
 
(d)          payment by any Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Guarantor's liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Agent is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce any Guarantor's covenant to pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Guarantor's liability hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations;
 
(e)          any Beneficiary, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor's liability hereunder, from time to time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations, (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations, (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Beneficiary in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Beneficiary may have against any such security, in each case as such Beneficiary in its discretion may determine consistent herewith and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or non-judicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against a Borrower or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations and (vi) exercise any other rights available to it under the Loan Documents; and
 
(f)         this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them:  (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Loan Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Loan Document or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Loan Documents or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any Beneficiary's consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Company or any of its Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set offs or counterclaims which a Borrower may allege or assert against any Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.
 
- 75 -

Section 7.5.         Waivers by Guarantors.  Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Beneficiaries:  (a) any right to require any Beneficiary, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against any Borrower, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of a Borrower or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of any Borrower or any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of any Borrower or any other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Beneficiary's errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor's obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor's liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to any Borrower and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 7.4 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof.
 
Section 7.6.        Guarantors' Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, etc.    Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary.  In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations, including, without limitation, any such right of contribution as contemplated by Section 7.2.  Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against any Borrower or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Beneficiary may have against any Borrower, to all right, title and interest any Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor.  If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been finally and indefeasibly paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.
 
- 76 -

Section 7.7.          Subordination of Other Obligations.  Any Indebtedness of any Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any Guarantor is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such indebtedness collected or received by such Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under any other provision hereof.
 
Section 7.8.         Continuing Guaranty.  This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full.  Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.
 
Section 7.9.          Authority of Guarantors or Borrowers.  It is not necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or any Borrower or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.
 
Section 7.10.        Financial Condition of Borrowers.  Any Credit Extension may be made to any Borrower or continued from time to time without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of any Borrower at the time of any such grant or continuation is entered into, as the case may be.  No Beneficiary shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Guarantor its assessment, or any Guarantor's assessment, of the financial condition of any Borrower.  Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Borrowers on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of each Borrower and its ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of each Borrower and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of non-payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of each Borrower now known or hereafter known by any Beneficiary.
 
- 77 -

Section 7.11.        Bankruptcy, etc.
 
(a)        So long as any Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, no Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of Agents acting pursuant to the instructions of Required Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding of or against any Borrower or any other Guarantor.  The obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of any Borrower or any other Guarantor or by any defense which any Borrower or any other Guarantor may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding.
 
(b)          Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantors and Beneficiaries that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by Guarantors pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve any Borrower of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations.  Guarantors will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar person to pay Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of Administrative Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced.
 
(c)         In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by Borrowers, the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any Beneficiary as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder.
 
Section 7.12.        Discharge of Guaranty upon Sale of Guarantor.  If all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, the Guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Beneficiary or any other Person effective as of the time of such Asset Sale.
 
Section 7.13.        Limitation.  It is the intent of each Guarantor and the Agents that the maximum Guaranteed Obligations hereunder shall be, but not in excess of:
 
(a)         in a case or proceeding commenced by or against any Guarantor under the provisions of Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, on or within one year from the date on which any of the Guaranteed Obligations are incurred, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor owed to the Beneficiaries) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor under (i) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or (ii) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in any such case or proceeding by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code; or
 
- 78 -

(b)          in a case or proceeding commenced by or against any Guarantor under the Bankruptcy Code subsequent to one year from the date on which any of the Guaranteed Obligations are incurred, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Beneficiaries) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor under any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in any such case or proceeding by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code; or
 
(c)         in a case or proceeding commenced by or against any Guarantor under any law, statute or regulation other than the Bankruptcy Code (including, without limitation, any other bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, readjustment of debt, dissolution, liquidation or similar debtor relief laws), the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Beneficiaries) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor under such law, statute or regulation, including, without limitation, any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in any such case or proceeding.
 
(d)         The substantive laws under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Beneficiaries) as may be determined in any case or proceeding shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Avoidance Provisions”.  To the extent set forth in Section 7.13(a), (b) and (c) but only to the extent that the Guaranteed Obligations would otherwise be subject to avoidance or found unenforceable under the Avoidance Provisions, if any Guarantor is not deemed to have received valuable consideration, fair value or reasonably equivalent value for the Guaranteed Obligations, or if the Guaranteed Obligations would render such Guarantor insolvent, or leave such Guarantor with an unreasonably small capital to conduct its business, or cause such Guarantor to have incurred debts (or to have intended to have incurred debts) beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature, in each case as of the time any of the Guaranteed Obligations are deemed to have been incurred under the Avoidance Provisions and after giving effect to the contribution by such Guarantor, the maximum Guaranteed Obligations for which such Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which, after giving effect thereto, would not cause the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Beneficiaries), as so reduced, to be subject to avoidance or unenforceability under the Avoidance Provisions.
 
(e)          This Section 7.13 is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Beneficiaries hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor to be subject to avoidance or unenforceability under the Avoidance Provisions, and neither the Guarantors nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section 7.13 as against the Beneficiaries that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.

ARTICLE IX

AGENTS
 
Section 9.1.          Appointment.
 
(a)          Each of the Lenders hereby (i) irrevocably appoints Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent under the Loan Documents and Collateral Agent to serve as collateral agent under the Loan Documents, and authorizes such Agents to execute, deliver and administer the Loan Documents and to take such actions and to exercise such powers as are delegated to each such Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  In addition, to the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States of America, each of the Lenders hereby grants to the Agents any required powers of attorney to execute any Collateral Document governed by the laws of such jurisdiction on such Lender's behalf.  Neither the Borrowers nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any such provisions.
 
(b)          Each Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an 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 Company, the Borrowers, any Guarantor, or any other Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
 
Section 9.2.          Nature of Duties; Delegation.
 
(a)         The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and their duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Agents shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term "agent" herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to an Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Requirement of 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), (ii) the Agents shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or to exercise any discretionary power, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Agents are 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 either Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents); provided that neither Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion, could expose either Agent to liability or be contrary to any Loan Document or any Requirement of Law, and (iii) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Company, any Borrower, any Guarantor, any other Subsidiary or any other Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as an Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.  Neither Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it 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 Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment); provided that no action taken or not taken at the direction of the Required Lenders shall be considered gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The Agents shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (conspicuously stating that it is a "notice of default" and providing sufficient detail of such Default or Event of Default) is given to the Administrative Agent by Company, any Borrower or a Lender, and the Agents shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (A) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection 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 or Event of Default, (D) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (E) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in this Agreement or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to an Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the applicable Agent.  The Agents shall be entitled to rely, 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 Agents also shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made 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), 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 that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan.  The Agents may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Lender), 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.
 
- 83 -

(b)          Each Agent may perform any of and all 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 such Agent.  Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of and all their duties and exercise their rights and powers through their respective controlled Affiliates.  The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the controlled Affiliates of each of either Agent or 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 of the Agents.  The Agents 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 applicable Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
 
Section 9.3.          Successor Agent.
 
(a)         Subject to the terms of this Section 9.3, either Agent may resign at any time from its capacity as such or the Required Lenders can elect to remove any Agent at any time.  In connection with such resignation, such Agent shall give notice of its intent to resign to the Lenders and the Borrowers.  In connection with such removal, the Required Lenders shall give notice of their intent to remove such Agent to the Agents, the Lenders and the Borrowers.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation or the giving of such notice of removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with (but without need for consent of) the Borrower, to appoint a successor.  If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after such Agent gives notice of its intent to resign or the Required Lenders give notice of their intent to replace such Agent, as the case may be, then such Agent may, on with the consent of the Required Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be (i) a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank, (ii) a Lender or (iii) any other Person with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no consent of the Borrowers shall be required.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Agent so retiring or removed, and such Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.  The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed by the Borrowers and such successor.
 
- 84 -

(b)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event no successor Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its intent to resign or the Required Lenders give notice of their intent to replace the Agent being removed, in the case of a retirement, such Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrowers, or, in the case of a removal, the Required Lenders may give notice of the effectiveness of the removal to the Agents, the Lenders and the Borrowers, in each case, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation or removal stated in such notice, (i) the Agent so retiring or removed shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to an Agent under any Collateral Document for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the Agent so retiring or removed shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of such Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Agent is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this paragraph (it being understood and agreed that no Agent so retiring or removed shall have any duty or obligation to take any further action under any Collateral Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and (ii) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Agent so retiring or removed; provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall also directly be given or made to each Lender.
 
(c)         Following the effectiveness of either Agent's resignation or removal from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article IX, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retired or removed 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 it was acting as an Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (b)(i) above.
 
Section 9.4.          Non-Reliance on Agents; Lender Consent.
 
(a)         Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon either Agent or any other Lender, or any of the controlled Affiliates of any of the foregoing, 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 also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon either Agent or any other Lender, or any of the controlled Affiliates of any of the foregoing, 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.
 
- 85 -

(b)         Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and funding its Term Loans on the Closing Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption in the form of Exhibit C or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Closing Date.
 
Section 9.5.          Collateral Matters.
 
(a)          Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights of any Lender in accordance with this Agreement or with respect to a Lender's right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Party (other than an Agent in its capacity as such) shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by an Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof.  In the event of a foreclosure by an Agent or sub-agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Agent, any sub-agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition, and either Agent or any sub-agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Loan Document Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties at such sale or other disposition.
 
(b)         In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no hedging agreement the obligations under which constitute Secured Obligations will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Secured Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Loan Party under any Loan Document.  By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that is a party to any such hedging agreement shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.
 
(c)          The Secured Parties irrevocably authorize each of the Agents, at its option and in its discretion, to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by an Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is a Permitted Lien and to release any Loan Party or Lien in the event there is a disposition of Collateral permitted under this Agreement or approved by the requisite amount of Lenders.  The Agents shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Agent's Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Agents be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.
 
Section 9.6.         Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
 
- 86 -

(a)         to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Term Loans and all other Secured Obligations including any Prepayment Premium, and indemnified or reimbursable amounts that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Agents allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
 
(b)          to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders or the other Secured Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under this Article IX).
 
Section 9.7.         No Third Party Beneficiaries.  The provisions of this Article IX are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, and, none of Company, any other Borrower or any Guarantor or Subsidiary shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions.  Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement) provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article IX.

(g)         Effect of Assignment.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.6, as of the later (i) of the "Effective Date" specified in the applicable Assignment Agreement or (ii) the date such assignment is recorded in the Register:  (A) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a "Lender" hereunder to the extent such rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a "Lender" for all purposes hereof; (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned thereby pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination hereof under Section 10.8) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder); (C) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect the Commitment of such assignee and any Commitment of such assigning Lender, if any; and (D) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon Borrowers shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Commitments and/or outstanding Term Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.
 
(h)          Participations.
 
(i)          Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates) in all or any part of its Commitments, Term Loans or in any other Obligation.  The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant's participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Term Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant's participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Loan Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents or any Guarantor from the Guaranty (in each case, except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents) supporting the Term Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating.  Borrowers agree that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 and 2.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.6(c); provided a participant that would be a Non-US Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless, at the time such participant is claiming such benefits, Company is notified of the participation sold to such participant and such participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.15 as though it were a Lender.  To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.4 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender.
 
- 93 -

(ii)         In the event that any Lender sells participations in its Commitments, Term Loans or in any other Obligation hereunder, such Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name of all participants in the Commitments, Term Loans or Obligations held by it and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of such Commitments, Term Loans or Obligations which are the subject of the participation (the "Participant Register").  A Commitment, Term Loan or Obligation hereunder may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide).  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.
 
(i)          Certain Other Assignments.  In addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Section 10.6, any Lender or Agent may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its Term Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender or Agent or any of its Affiliates to any Person providing any loan, letter of credit or other extension of credit or financial arrangement to or for the account of such Lender or Agent or any of its Affiliates and any agent, trustee or representative of such Person (without the consent of, or notice to, or any other action by, any other party hereto), including, without limitation, any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided no Lender or Agent, as between Borrowers and such Lender or Agent, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge; provided further in no event shall such Person, agent, trustee or representative of such Person or the applicable Federal Reserve Bank be considered to be a "Lender" or "Agent" or be entitled to require the assigning Lender or Agent to take or omit to take any action hereunder.
 
Section 10.7.       Independence of Covenants.  All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.
 
- 94 -

Section 10.8.        Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements.  All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit Extension.  Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of each Loan Party set forth in Sections 2.13, 2.14, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, and 10.10 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Section 2.12 and Article IX shall survive the payment of the Term Loans and the termination hereof.
 
Section 10.9.        No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege.  The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Loan Documents.  Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.
 
Section 10.10.     Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.  Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.  To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
 
Section 10.11.     Severability.  In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or any Note or other Loan Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
 
Section 10.12.     Obligations Several.  The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity.  The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, provided that the Lenders shall not have the right to individually exercise any rights or remedies under any of the Collateral Documents, all of which shall be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (or any duly appointed sub-agent) upon instruction of Required Lenders for the ratable benefit of all Lenders.
 
Section 10.13.      Headings.  Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

Section 10.17.    Confidentiality.  Each Agent and Lender shall hold all non-public information regarding Company and its Subsidiaries and their businesses identified as such by Company and obtained by such Lender from Company or its Subsidiaries pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Lender's customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by each Loan Party that, in any event, any Agent or Lender may make (i) disclosures of such information to Affiliates of such Agent or Lender and to their agents, advisors, directors and shareholders (and to other persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.17), (ii) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation by any such Lender of any Loans or any participations therein; provided that such bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant shall be subject to a customary confidentiality agreement, (iii) disclosure to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from any of the Agents or any Lender, (iv) disclosure to any Lender's financing sources, provided that prior to any disclosure, such financing source is informed of the confidential nature of the information, (v) disclosures of such information to any investors and partners of any Lender, provided that prior to any disclosure, such investor or partner is informed of the confidential nature of the information, and (vi) disclosure required or requested in connection with any public filings, whether pursuant to any securities laws or regulations or rules promulgated therefor (including the Investment Company Act of 1940 or otherwise) or representative thereof or by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (and any successor thereto) or pursuant to legal or judicial process; provided, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Agent and Lender shall make reasonable efforts to notify Company of any request by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such Governmental Authority) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, each party (and each of their respective employees, representatives or other agents) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitations of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions and other tax analyses) that are provided to any such party relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.  However, any information relating to the tax treatment or tax structure shall remain subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply) to the extent reasonably necessary to enable the parties hereto, their respective Affiliates, and their and their respective Affiliates' directors and employees to comply with applicable securities laws.  For this purpose, "tax structure" means any facts relevant to the federal income tax treatment of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement but does not include information relating to the identity of any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Affiliates.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or after the Closing Date, any Agent may, at its own expense issue news releases and publish "tombstone" advertisements and other announcements relating to this transaction in newspapers, trade journals and other appropriate media (which may include use of logos of one or more of the Loan Parties) (collectively, "Trade Announcements").  No Loan Party shall issue any Trade Announcement or disclose the name of any Agent or any Lender except (A) disclosures required by applicable law, regulation, legal process or the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission or (B) with the prior approval of such Agent and such Lender.

Section 10.18.     Usury Savings Clause.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged or agreed to be paid with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.  If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Term Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect.  In addition, if when the Term Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Borrowers to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws.  Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender's option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Term Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Borrowers.  In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest, throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
 
Section 10.19.     Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.  Delivery of an executed signature page to this agreement by electronic transmittal shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
 
Section 10.20.      Effectiveness.  This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by Company and each Agent of written or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof.
 
Section 10.21.     PATRIOT Act Notice.  Each Lender and Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it may be required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of the Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender or Agent, as applicable, to identify the Loan Parties in accordance with the PATRIOT Act, including the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

Section 10.22.     Company.  Each Borrower hereby designates the Company to act as its representative and agent on its behalf, for the purposes of issuing Funding Notices and notices of conversion or continuation, giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the Term Loans, selecting interest rate options, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions on behalf of each Borrower under the Loan Documents.  The Administrative Agent and each Lender may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document from the Company in its capacity as Company as a notice or communication from each Borrower.  Each warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on behalf of each Borrower by the Company in its capacity as Company for the Borrowers shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by each Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against each Borrower to the same extent as it if the same had been made directly by each of the Borrowers.  Such appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until each Agent shall have received written notice signed by each Borrower terminating such appointment.  The Borrowers shall have the right, to appoint another Borrower as agent under this Section 10.22 with the prior written consent of each Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  It is understood that the handling of the loan account and Collateral of the Borrowers in a combined fashion, as more fully set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to the Borrowers in order to utilize the collective borrowing powers of the Borrowers in the most efficient and economical manner and at their request, and that neither the Agents nor the Lenders shall incur liability to the Borrowers as a result hereof.  Each of the Borrowers expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the handling of the loan account and the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent on the continued successful performance of the integrated group.  To induce the Agents and the Lenders to do so, and in consideration thereof, each of the Borrowers hereby jointly and severally agrees to indemnify the Indemnitees and hold the Indemnitees harmless against any and all liability, expense, loss or claim of damage or injury, made against such Indemnitee by any of the Borrowers or by any third party whosoever, arising from or incurred by reason of (a) the handling of the loan account and Collateral of the Borrowers as herein provided, (b) the Agents and the Lenders relying on any instructions of the Company, or (c) any other action taken by any Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.
 
Section 10.23.      Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers.
 
(a)          Each Borrower is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Beneficiaries under the Loan Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations.
 
(b)        Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including any Obligations arising under this Section 10.23), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among them.
 
(c)          If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation until such time as all of the Obligations are paid in full.
 
- 99 -

(d)          The Obligations of each Borrower under the provisions of this Section 10.23 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each Borrower enforceable against each Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement (other than this clause (d)) or any other circumstances whatsoever.
 
(e)         Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any Term Loans, notice of the occurrence of any Default, Event of Default, or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by Agents or Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement).  Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by Agents or Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by Agents or Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Borrower.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of any Agent or Lender with respect to the failure by any Borrower to comply with any of its respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 10.23 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 10.23, it being the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 10.23 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance.  The Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 10.23 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any other Borrower or any Agent or Lender.
 
(f)          Each Borrower represents and warrants to Agents and Lenders that such Borrower is currently informed of the financial condition of Borrowers and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations.  Each Borrower further represents and warrants to Agents and Lenders that such Borrower has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents.  Each Borrower hereby covenants that such Borrower will continue to keep informed of Borrowers' financial condition and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations.
 
(g)         The provisions of this Section 10.23 are made for the benefit of each Beneficiary, and its successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against any or all Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of each Beneficiary, or any of its successors or assigns first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy.  The provisions of this Section 10.23 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied.  If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 10.23 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.
 
- 100 -

(h)          Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against any other Borrower with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to Agents or Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time as all of the Obligations have been paid in full in Cash.  Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to any Beneficiary hereunder are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in Cash of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full in Cash before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in Cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any other Borrower therefor.
 
(i)          Each Borrower hereby agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, such Borrower will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of any other Borrower owing to such Borrower until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in Cash.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such Borrower shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Borrower as trustee for Agents, and such Borrower shall deliver any such amounts to Administrative Agent for application to the Obligations in accordance with this Agreement.
 
Section 10.24.     Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document 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 the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and
 
(b)         the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability, (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent entity, 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.
