(h) The obligation of Borrower to pay to the Issuing Lender the amount of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable, subject only to performance by the Issuing Lender of its obligations to Borrower under Uniform Commercial Code Section 5109. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower’s obligations shall not be affected by any of the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability prior to its stated expiration date of the Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto, with the

(iv) any demand, statement, or any other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid, or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever so long as any such document appeared substantially to comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit;

(v) payment by the Issuing Lender in good faith under the Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or any accompanying document which does not strictly comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit, unless the acceptance of such draft or other accompanying document constituted gross negligence;

(vi) the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any Property purported to be represented by documents presented in connection with any Letter of Credit or any difference between any such Property and the character, quality, quantity, condition, or value of such Property as described in such documents;

(vii) the time, place, manner, order or contents of shipments or deliveries of Property as described in documents presented in connection with any Letter of Credit or the existence, nature and extent of any insurance relative thereto;

(viii) the solvency or financial responsibility of any party issuing any documents in connection with a Letter of Credit;

(xii) any consequence arising from acts of God, war, insurrection, civil unrest, disturbances, labor disputes, emergency conditions or other causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender;

(xiii) so long as the Issuing Lender in good faith determines that the contract or document appears substantially to comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit, the form, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any contract or document referred to in any document submitted to the Issuing Lender in connection with a Letter of Credit unless the Issuing Lender’s actions constituted gross negligence; and

(xiv) where the Issuing Lender has acted in good faith and observed general

43

banking usage, any other circumstances whatsoever unless the Issuing Lender’s actions constituted gross negligence.

(i) The Issuing Lender shall be entitled to the protection accorded to the Agent pursuant to Section 10.6 , with all necessary changes.

(j) The Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as published in its most current version by the International Chamber of Commerce, shall be deemed a part of this Section and shall apply to all Letters of Credit to the extent not inconsistent with applicable Law.

(k) Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however , that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Request for Letter of Credit or other agreement entered into by Borrower and the Issuing Lender related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time; provided further , that if the amount of a Letter of Credit is revalued at a loss to the Issuing Lender upon drawing, Borrower shall indemnify the Issuing Lender for such loss.

(l) If the Maturity Date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit (such maturity date, the “ Earlier Revolving Commitment Maturity Date ”), then (i) on such Earlier Revolving Commitment Maturity Date, if one or more other tranches of Revolving Commitments in respect of which the Maturity Date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.4(c) ) under (and ratably participated in by Revolving Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i), Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit. Except to the extent of reallocations of participations pursuant to clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the occurrence of a Maturity Date with respect to a given tranche of Revolving Commitments shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Revolving Lenders in any Letter of Credit issued before such Maturity Date.

(m) The Issuing Lender shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if any Revolving Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to the Issuing Lender (in its sole discretion) with Borrower or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.11(a)(iv) ) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which the Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion.

(n) Borrower may request that any Letter of Credit permitted to be issued under this Section 2.4 shall be denominated in a Permitted Foreign Currency; provided that (i) the aggregate maximum amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, including the Dollar Equivalent of the

44

aggregate maximum amount of such Foreign Currency Letter of Credit and all other outstanding Foreign Currency Letters of Credit, shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit and (ii) the Issuing Lender of such Letter of Credit shall have consented to such Permitted Foreign Currency. With respect to any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit requested hereunder, in addition to the information required elsewhere in this Section 2.4 , Borrower shall set forth in the Request for Letter of Credit therefor (i) the Permitted Foreign Currency to be applicable to such Letter of Credit and (ii) its calculation of the usage as of such date of the Letter of Credit Sublimit (broken down by Letter of Credit, including each Foreign Currency Letter of Credit, and otherwise in form and detail acceptable to the Agent and the Issuing Lender).

With respect to each Foreign Currency Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender thereof shall determine, and provide written notice to the Agent and Borrower of, the Spot Rate for such Letter of Credit as of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating Dollar Equivalent amounts of Letters of Credit denominated in Permitted Foreign Currencies. Such Spot Rates shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by Borrower hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any Permitted Foreign Currency for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by the Issuing Lender of such Letter of Credit (written notice of which shall be given by the Issuing Lender to Borrower and the Agent, which notice shall include the calculation thereof) on the applicable date of determination on the basis of the Spot Rate for the purchase of Dollars with such Permitted Foreign Currency.

For the avoidance of doubt, (i) at any time when any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit shall be outstanding, any calculation under the Loan Documents of “L/C Obligations,” “Outstanding Amount,” or any similar calculation involving the amount of Letters of Credit, shall mean the Dollar Equivalent of such amount, (ii) all L/C Borrowings shall be denominated in Dollars and (iii) all repayments of drawing on Letters of Credit, including pursuant to Section 2.4(d) shall be made by Borrower in Dollars.

2.5 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitment .

(a) Optional . Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, without penalty or charge, upon at least five (5) Banking Days’ prior written notice by a Responsible Official of Borrower to the Agent, voluntarily to reduce, permanently and irrevocably, in aggregate principal amounts in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 but not less than $10,000,000, or to terminate, all or a portion of the then undisbursed portion of the Revolving Commitment; provided Borrower shall not terminate or reduce (A) the Revolving Commitment if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the total Revolving Loans outstanding would exceed the Revolving Commitment, or (B) Letter of Credit Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of Letters of Credit outstanding that is not fully Cash Collateralized hereunder would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit; provided further that (i) Borrower may terminate or reduce separately (I) any portion of the Revolving Credit Facility not constituting an Extended Revolving Credit Facility and (II) any Extended Revolving Credit Facility as specified in the notice and (ii) no Extended Revolving Credit Facility may be terminated or reduced pursuant to this Section 2.5(a) prior to the termination of each portion of the Revolving Credit Facility with an earlier Revolving Loan Maturity Date without the prior written consent of each Revolving Lender under each such portion of the Revolving Credit Facility. The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitment under this Section.

45

(b) Mandatory . (i) Upon the occurrence of the Revolving Loan Maturity Date applicable to any portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolving Commitments applicable to such portion shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero on such date.

(ii) If after giving effect to any reduction or termination of Revolving Commitments under this Section 2.05 , the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the Revolving Commitment at such time, the Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.

(c) Application of Commitment Reductions . The Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any termination or reduction of the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Revolving Commitment under this Section 2.5 . Upon any reduction of the Revolving Commitments, unless otherwise permitted under this Section 2.5 , the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender shall be reduced by such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such reduction amount. All fees in respect of the Revolving Commitment accrued until the effective date of any termination of such Revolving Commitment shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. In connection with the termination or reduction of any portion of the Revolving Credit Facility pursuant to this Section 2.5 , Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Loans and L/C Advances of the Revolving Lenders whose Revolving Commitments have been so terminated or reduced to the extent necessary such that the Revolving Loans and L/C Advances of each Revolving Lender shall not exceed its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans and L/C Advances after giving effect to such termination or reduction.

2.6 Agent’s Right to Assume Funds Available for Advances . Unless the Agent shall have been notified by any Lender no later than 10:00 a.m. on the Banking Day of the proposed funding by the Agent of any Loan that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Agent such Lender’s portion of the total amount of such Loan, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Agent on the date of the Loan and the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. If the Agent has made funds available to Borrower based on such assumption and such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Agent by such Lender, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Agent’s demand therefor, the Agent promptly shall notify Borrower and Borrower shall pay such corresponding amount to the Agent. The Agent also shall be entitled to recover from such Lender interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Agent to Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the daily Federal Funds Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its share of the Commitments or to prejudice any rights which the Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

2.7 Collateral . To the extent required in the Security Agreements, the Secured Obligations shall be secured by a first priority (subject to Liens permitted by Section 6.9 ) perfected Lien on the Collateral pursuant to the Security Agreements.

2.8 Increase of Commitment .

(a) Request for Increase . If no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower may at any time prior to the applicable Maturity Date request (i) increases of the Revolving Commitment (any such increase, the “ New Revolving Commitments ”) and/or (ii) the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “ New Term Loan Commitments ” and, together with the New Revolving Commitments, the “ New Commitments ”)

46

by notice to the Agent in writing of the amount of such proposed increase (such notice, a “ Commitment Increase Notice ”) (which shall promptly notify the Lenders being requested); provided , however , that any such request pursuant to a Commitment Increase Notice (x) shall be in the minimum amount of $10,000,000 and the aggregate amount of New Commitments on and after the Closing Date shall not exceed $200,000,000 and (y) may only be exercised three (3) times by Borrower during the term of this Agreement. Each such notice shall specify (A) the date (each, an “ Increased Amount Date ”) on which Borrower proposes that the New Revolving Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Banking Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Agent (or such lesser period of time as may be agreed to by the Agent) and (B) the identity of each Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, a “ New Revolving Loan Lender ” or “ New Term Loan Lender ”, as applicable) to whom Borrower proposes any portion of such New Revolving Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, be allocated and the amounts of such allocations (but no Lender is obligated to accept such allocation); provided that Borrower may, in its sole discretion, offer to any existing Lender the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of any such New Commitments and any such Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the New Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Commitment.

(b) New Revolving Commitments . Each requested existing Revolving Lender shall notify the Agent in writing whether or not it agrees to increase its Revolving Commitment and, if it so agrees, provide the Agent prior to the Increased Amount Date with a copy of an increased commitment letter executed by such Lender and Borrower, substantially in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto. Each New Revolving Loan Lender that is not an existing Revolving Lender shall become a Lender pursuant to a joinder agreement substantially in the form attached as Exhibit I hereto or otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent; provided that the commitment of each such New Revolving Loan Lender shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000. The terms and provisions of the loans made pursuant to such New Revolving Commitments shall be identical to the existing Revolving Loans. The Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and the Revolving Lenders, including each New Revolving Loan Lender, as applicable, in writing of the final allocation of such increase and the Increased Amount Date and shall provide to such parties a revised Schedule 1.1 reflecting the final allocation of such increase.

(c) New Term Loan Commitment . The New Term Loan Commitments shall be effected pursuant to a New Term Facility Supplement executed and delivered by Borrower, the New Term Loan Lenders and Agent, each of which shall be recorded in the Register, and upon the effectiveness of such New Term Facility Supplement each such New Term Loan Lender shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement. The terms and provisions of each New Term Facility shall be set forth in the New Term Facility Supplement; provided that (i) the applicable maturity date of each Series shall be no shorter than the latest Revolving Loan Maturity Date and (ii) the Weighted Average Yield applicable to the New Term Loans of each Series shall be determined by Borrower and the applicable New Term Loan Lenders and shall be set forth in each applicable New Term Facility Supplement; provided , however , that, with respect to any Series of New Term Loans established on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Weighted Average Yield applicable to the New Term Loans shall not be greater than the applicable Weighted Average Yield payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement with respect to Revolving Loans plus 0.50% per annum unless the interest rate with respect to the Revolving Loans is increased so as to cause the then applicable Weighted Average Yield under this Agreement on the Revolving Loans to equal the Weighted Average Yield then applicable to such Series of New Term Loans less 0.50% per annum. Each New Term Facility Supplement

47

may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary, in the opinion of the Agent to effect the provision of this Section 2.8 and the Lenders hereto further agree that the New Term Lenders party to any New Term Facility Supplement may, from time to time, make amendments to such New Term Facility Supplement without the consent of any other Lenders so long as such New Term Facility Supplement, as amended, complies with the terms set forth in this Section 2.8 . Any New Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated a separate series (a “ Series ”) of New Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement. On any Increased Amount Date on which any New Term Loan Commitments of any Series are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.8(c) and Section 2.8(d) , (i) each New Term Loan Lender of any Series shall make a loan to Borrower (a “ New Term Loan ”) in an amount equal to its New Term Loan Commitment of such Series, and (ii) each New Term Loan Lender of any Series shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the New Term Loan Commitment of such Series and the New Term Loans of such Series made pursuant thereto.

(d) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase . Such New Commitments shall become effective, as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that (1) both before and after giving effect to the making of any Series of New Term Loans or Revolving Loans with respect to the New Revolving Commitments, each of the conditions set forth in Section 8.2 shall be satisfied and the Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates reasonably requested by the Agent and consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 8.1 and such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree and (2) if, on the Increased Amount Date with respect to any New Revolving Commitments, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on effectiveness of such New Revolving Commitments be prepaid from the proceeds of additional Revolving Loans made hereunder (reflecting such increase in Revolving Commitments), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 3.6(e) . On any date on which New Revolving Commitments are increased, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each of the Revolving Lenders (including the New Revolving Loan Lenders, if any) shall make such assignments of Revolving Loans outstanding on such date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments, such Revolving Loans will be held by the Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to such New Revolving Commitments hereunder, (ii) each New Revolving Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a “Revolving Commitment” and each loan made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, a “Revolving Loan”, (iii) each New Revolving Loan Lender shall become a “Lender” with respect to the New Revolving Commitment and all matters relating thereto and (iv) and Borrower shall compensate each existing Lender who shall have assigned any portion of any Eurodollar Rate Loans previously held by such Lender compensation in the amount that would have been payable to such Lender under Section 3.6(e) hereof had Borrower made a prepayment of such Eurodollar Rate Loans by an amount equal to such assigned portion thereof. Upon any increase in the Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.8 , Schedule 1.1 shall be deemed amended to reflect such new Revolving Commitment and Pro Rata Share of each Lender (including any New Revolving Loan Lender), as thereby increased or decreased, as appropriate.

2.9 Swing Line Advances .

(a) Commitment . Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (including without limitation the provisions of this Section 2.9 ), Swing Line Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.9 , agrees to make one or more Advances (each such advance being a “ Swing Line Advance ”) to Borrower from time to time on

48

any Banking Day during the period from the Closing Date until (but excluding) the Revolving Loan Maturity Date applicable to the Swing Line Lender in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any one time outstanding the Swing Line Maximum Amount. Subject to the terms set forth herein, advances, repayments and readvances may be made under the Swing Line. Swing Line Advances requested by Borrower not later than 10:00 a.m. on a Banking Day shall be made by Swing Line Lender on such day. Swing Line Advances requested by Borrower after 10:00 a.m. on a Banking Day shall be made by Swing Line Lender as soon as possible, but no later than the following Banking Day.

(b) Accrual of Interest and Maturity; Evidence of Indebtedness .

(i) Swing Line Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of Borrower to Swing Line Lender resulting from each Swing Line Advance from time to time, including the amount and date of each Swing Line Advance, its Applicable Interest Rate, and the amount and date of any repayment made on any Swing Line Advance from time to time. The entries made in such account or accounts of Swing Line Lender shall be prima facie evidence, absent manifest error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations of Borrower therein recorded; provided , however , that the failure of Swing Line Lender to maintain such account, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of Borrower to repay the Swing Line Advances (and all other amounts owing with respect thereto) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Solely for the purposes of this Section 2.9 with respect to Swing Line Advances, “ Applicable Interest Rate ” means, as of any date of determination, the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(ii) Borrower agrees that, upon the written request of Swing Line Lender, Borrower will execute and deliver to Swing Line Lender a Swing Line Note.

(iii) Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to the Swing Line Lender the then unpaid principal amount of such Swing Line Advance (plus all accrued and unpaid interest) on the Revolving Loan Maturity Date applicable to the Swing Line Lender and on such other dates and in such other amounts as may be required from time to time pursuant to this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Swing Line Advance shall, from time to time after the date of such Advance (until paid), bear interest at its Applicable Interest Rate.

(c) Refunding of or Participation Interest in Swing Line Advances .

(i) The Agent, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, may, in each case on behalf of Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Agent to act on their behalf) request each of the Revolving Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as a Lender) to make an Advance of the Revolving Loan to Borrower, in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment of the aggregate principal amount of the Swing Line Advances outstanding on the date such notice is given (the “ Refunded Swing Line Advances ”). The applicable Revolving Loan Advances used to refund any Swing Line Advances shall be Alternate Base Rate Advances. In connection with the making of any such Refunded Swing Line Advances or the purchase of a participation interest in Swing Line Advances under Section 2.9(c)(ii) , the Swing Line Lender shall retain its claim against Borrower for any unpaid interest or fees in respect thereof accrued to the date of such refunding. Unless any of the

49

events described in Section 9.1(j) shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of Section 2.9(c)(ii) shall apply) and regardless of whether the conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement to the making of a Revolving Loan Advance are then satisfied (but subject to Section 2.9(c)(iii) ), each Revolving Lender shall make the proceeds of its Revolving Loan Advance available to the Agent for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender at the office of the Agent specified in Section 2.1(c) prior to 12:00 p.m. on the Banking Day next succeeding the date such notice is given (which must be a Banking Day), in immediately available funds. The proceeds of such Revolving Loan Advances shall be immediately applied to repay the Refunded Swing Line Advances.

(ii) If, prior to the making of an Advance of the Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.9(c)(i) , one of the events described in Section 9.1(j) shall have occurred, each Revolving Lender will, on the date such Advance of the Revolving Loan was to have been made, purchase from the Swing Line Lender an undivided participating interest in each Swing Line Advance that was to have been refunded in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment of such Swing Line Advance. Each Revolving Lender within the time periods specified in Section 2.9(c)(i) , as applicable, shall immediately transfer to the Agent, for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment of the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Advances outstanding as of such date. Upon receipt thereof, the Agent will deliver to such Lender documentation evidencing such participation.

(iii) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loan Advances to refund Swing Line Advances, and to purchase participation interests, in accordance with Sections 2.9(c)(i) and (ii) , respectively, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against Swing Line Lender, Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default; (C) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower or any other Person; (D) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by Borrower or any other Person; (E) any inability of Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement on the date upon which such Revolving Loan Advance is to be made or such participating interest is to be purchased; (F) the termination of the Revolving Commitment hereunder; or (G) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If any Revolving Lender does not make available to the Agent the amount required pursuant to Section 2.9(c)(i) or (ii) , as the case may be, the Agent on behalf of the Swing Line Lender, shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date of non-payment until such amount is paid in full (x) for the first two (2) Banking Days such amount remains unpaid, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (y) thereafter, at the rate of interest then applicable to such Swing Line Advances. The obligation of any Revolving Lender to make available its pro rata portion of the amounts required pursuant to Section 2.9(c)(i) or (ii)  shall not be affected by the failure of any other Lender to make such amounts available, and no Lender shall have any liability to Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Agent, the Swing Line Lender, or any other Lender or any other party for another Lender’s failure to make available the amounts required under Section 2.9(c)(i) or (ii) .

50

(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Revolving Lender shall be required to make any Revolving Loan Advance to refund a Swing Line Advance or to purchase a participation in a Swing Line Advance if at least two (2) Banking Days prior to the making of such Swing Line Advance by the Swing Line Lender, the officers of the Swing Line Lender immediately responsible for matters concerning this Agreement shall have received written notice from the Agent or any Revolving Lender that Swing Line Advances should be suspended based on the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”; provided, however , that the obligation of the Revolving Lenders to make such Revolving Loan Advances (or purchase such participations) shall be reinstated upon the date on which such Default or Event of Default has been waived by the requisite Lenders. In the event that the Swing Line Lender receives any such notice, the Swing Line Lender shall have no obligation to fund any Swing Line Advances until such notice is withdrawn by the Agent or such Lender or until the requisite Lenders have waived such Default or Event of Default in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.9 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Swing Line Lender may terminate the Swing Line at any time in its sole discretion.

(d) Extensions . If a Revolving Loan Maturity Date (the “ Earlier Maturity Date ”) shall have occurred at a time when another tranche or tranches of Revolving Commitments is or are in effect with a longer Maturity Date, then, on the Earlier Maturity Date, all then outstanding Swing Line Advances shall be repaid in full (and there shall be no adjustment to the participations in such Swing Line Advances as a result of the occurrence of the Earlier Maturity Date); provided, however , that if on the occurrence of the Earlier Maturity Date (after giving effect to any repayments of Revolving Loans and any reallocation of Letter of Credit participations as contemplated in Section 2.4(l) ), there shall exist sufficient undrawn amounts under the Extended Revolving Credit Facilities in effect after the occurrence of the Earlier Maturity Date so that the respective outstanding Swing Line Advances could be incurred pursuant to such Extended Revolving Credit Facilities, then (1) there shall be an automatic adjustment on the Earlier Maturity Date of the risk participations of the Revolving Lenders under such Extended Revolving Credit Facilities pro rata according to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the then applicable Commitments under such Extended Revolving Credit Facilities and such outstanding Swing Line Advances shall be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to the such Commitments and (2) such Swing Line Advances shall not be required to be repaid in full on the Earlier Maturity Date.

2.10 Defaulting Lenders

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

(1) Waivers and Amendments . Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Requisite Lenders and Section 11.2 .

If at any time the Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Agent or the Issuing Lender as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Agent, pay or provide to the Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

3.6 Eurodollar Costs and Related Matters .

(a) In the event that any Governmental Agency imposes on any Lender any reserve or comparable requirement ( including any emergency, supplemental or other reserve) with respect to the Eurodollar Obligations of that Lender, Borrower shall pay that Lender within five (5) Banking Days after demand all amounts necessary to compensate such Lender (determined as though such Lender’s Eurodollar Lending Office had funded 100% of its Eurodollar Rate Advance in the Designated Eurodollar Market) in respect of the imposition of such reserve requirements ( provided that Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any such amount unless such Lender is charging similar amounts to similarly situated Borrowers and provided further that

59

Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any such amount which arose prior to the date which is ninety (90) days preceding the date of such demand or is attributable to periods prior to the date which is ninety (90) days preceding the date of such demand (except to the extent of any retroactive application of the law, rule, regulation or guideline (or similar) giving rise to such demand)). The Lender’s determination of such amount shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(b) If any Change in Law:

(1) shall subject any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to any tax, duty or other charge or cost with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advance, any Eurodollar Rate Loans or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender attributable to the principal of or interest on any Eurodollar Rate Advance or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of any Eurodollar Rate Advance, any Eurodollar Rate Loans or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances, excluding , in each case, (i) any Indemnified Taxes (as to which Section 3.11 shall govern exclusively), and (ii) any Taxes described in clause (a), (c) or (d) of the definition of “ Excluded Taxes ”;

(2) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve not applicable or deemed applicable on the date hereof ( including any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge, capital or similar requirements against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office); or

(3) shall impose on any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office or the Designated Eurodollar Market any other condition affecting any Eurodollar Rate Advance, any Eurodollar Rate Loans, its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or this Agreement, or shall otherwise affect any of the same;

and the result of any of the foregoing, as determined in good faith by such Lender, increases the cost to such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Advance or in respect of any Eurodollar Rate Advance, any Eurodollar Rate Loans or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or reduces the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advance, any Eurodollar Rate Loans or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances (assuming such Lender’s Eurodollar Lending Office had funded 100% of its Eurodollar Rate Advance in the Designated Eurodollar Market), then, within five (5) Banking Days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction (determined as though such Lender’s Eurodollar Lending Office had funded 100% of its Eurodollar Rate Advance in the Designated Eurodollar Market); provided that Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any such amount unless such Lender is charging similar amounts to similarly situated Borrowers and provided further that Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any such amount which arose prior to the date which is ninety (90) days preceding the date of such demand or is attributable to periods prior to the date which is ninety (90) days preceding the date of such demand (except to the extent of any retroactive application of the law, rule, regulation or guideline (or similar) giving rise to such demand). A statement of any Lender claiming compensation under this subsection shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If a Lender requests compensation pursuant to this Section 3.6(b) , Borrower may replace such Lender or such Issuing Lender in accordance with Section 11.26 .

60

(c) If, after the date hereof, any Lender shall, in its good faith opinion, determine that any Law has made it unlawful or impossible (or that any Governmental Agency has asserted that it is unlawful) for such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to make, maintain or fund its portion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Law or Governmental Agency has materially restricted the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the Designated Eurodollar Market, and such Lender shall so notify the Agent, then (A) such Lender’s obligation to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended and (B) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Alternate Base Rate Advances the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, the interest rate on which Alternate Base Rate Advances of such Lender, shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, in each case for the duration of such illegality or impossibility, and the Agent forthwith shall give notice thereof to the other Lenders and Borrower. Upon receipt of such notice, (I) the outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Advances, together with accrued interest thereon, automatically shall be converted to Alternate Base Rate Advances (the interest rate on which Alternate Base Rate Advances of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate) on either (1) the last day of the Eurodollar Period(s) applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Advances if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Eurodollar Rate Advances to such day(s) or (2) immediately if such Lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain such Eurodollar Rate Advances to such day(s), provided that in such event the conversion shall not be subject to payment of a prepayment fee under Section 3.6(e) and (II) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, the Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component thereof until the Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate. Each Lender agrees to endeavor promptly to notify Borrower of any event of which it has actual knowledge, occurring after the Closing Date, which will cause that Lender to notify the Agent under this Section, and agrees to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. In the event that any Lender is unable, for the reasons set forth above, to make, maintain or fund its portion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan, such Lender shall fund such amount as an Alternate Base Rate Advance for the same period of time, and such amount shall be treated in all respects as an Alternate Base Rate Advance. If a Lender provides a notice pursuant to this Section 3.6(c) , Borrower may replace such Lender or such Issuing Lender in accordance with Section 11.26 . Any Lender whose obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances has been suspended under this Section shall thereafter promptly notify the Agent and Borrower of any cessation of the Special Eurodollar Circumstance which gave rise to such suspension.

(d) If, with respect to any proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof:

(1) the Agent reasonably determines that, by reason of circumstances affecting the Designated Eurodollar Market generally that are beyond the reasonable control of the Lenders, (A) deposits in Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to any Lender in the Designated Eurodollar Market for the applicable Eurodollar Period or (B) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Eurodollar Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate

61

Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Alternate Base Rate Loan (in each case with respect to clause (A), “ Impacted Loans ”); or

(2) the Requisite Lenders advise the Agent that the Eurodollar Rate as determined by the Agent (i) does not represent the effective pricing to such Lenders for deposits in Dollars in the Designated Eurodollar Market in the relevant amount for the applicable Eurodollar Period, or (ii) will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making the applicable Eurodollar Rate Advances;

then the Agent forthwith shall give notice thereof to Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon until the Agent notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make any future Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Eurodollar Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the Alternate Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Agent (upon the instruction of the Requisite Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Eurodollar Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a borrowing of Alternate Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Agent has made the determination described in clause (d)(1) of this Section, the Agent, in consultation with Borrower and the affected Lenders, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (i) the Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under this Section, (ii) the Requisite Lenders notify Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (iii) any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Agency has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Agency has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Agent and Borrower written notice thereof.

(e) Upon conversion, payment or prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Advance ( other than as the result of a conversion required under Section 3.6(c) ) on a day other than the last day in the applicable Eurodollar Period (whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise), or upon the failure of Borrower (for a reason other than the breach by a Lender of its obligation pursuant to Section 2.1(a) to make an Advance) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert on the date or in the amount specified for a Eurodollar Rate Loan in any Request for Loan after such Request for Loan has become irrevocable, Borrower shall pay to the appropriate Lender within five (5) Banking Days after demand a prepayment fee or failure to borrow fee, as the case may be (determined as though 100% of the Eurodollar Rate Advance had been funded in the Designated Eurodollar Market) equal to the sum of:

(1) $250; plus

(2) the amount, if any, by which (i) the additional interest would have accrued on the amount prepaid or not borrowed at the Eurodollar Rate plus the

62

Applicable Margin if that amount had remained or been outstanding through the last day of the applicable Eurodollar Period exceeds (ii) the interest that the Lender could recover by placing such amount on deposit in the Designated Eurodollar Market for a period beginning on the date of the prepayment or failure to borrow and ending on the last day of the applicable Eurodollar Period (or, if no deposit rate quotation is available for such period, for the most comparable period for which a deposit rate quotation may be obtained); plus

(3) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lender reasonably attributable to such payment, prepayment or failure to borrow.

Each Lender’s determination of the amount of any prepayment fee payable under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(f) Each Lender agrees to endeavor promptly to notify Borrower of any event of which it has actual knowledge, occurring after the Closing Date, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to clause (a) or clause (b) of this Section. If any Lender requests compensation pursuant to clause (a) or clause (b) of this Section, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to clause (c) of this Section , such Lender agrees to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for or reduce the amount of such compensation or would eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to clause (c) of this Section, as applicable, and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Any request for compensation by a Lender under this Section shall set forth the basis upon which it has been determined that such an amount is due from Borrower, a calculation of the amount due, and a certification that the corresponding costs have been incurred by the Lender. Borrower may replace such Lender by notifying such Lender, within five (5) Banking Days after demand of such Lender, of Borrower’s intention to replace such Lender and Borrower shall then replace such Lender by causing such Lender to assign its Commitments to one or more other then-existing Lenders or to another Eligible Assignee reasonably satisfactory to the Agent within forty-five (45) days after demand of such Lender.in accordance with Section 11.26 .

3.7 Late Payments . If any installment of principal or interest or any fee or cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document to the Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender is not paid when due, it shall thereafter bear interest at the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including, without limitation, interest on past due interest) shall be compounded monthly, on the last day of each calendar month, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

3.8 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate .

(a) Computation of Interest and Fees . All computations of interest for Alternate Base Rate Loans (including Alternate Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made; interest shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid. Any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable Laws shall not accrue or be

63

payable hereunder or under the Notes, and any amount paid as interest hereunder or under the Notes which would otherwise be in excess of such maximum permitted amount shall instead be treated as a payment of principal.

(b) Financial Statement Adjustments or Restatements . If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of Borrower and its Subsidiaries or for any other reason, Borrower, or the Lenders determine that (i) the Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, under any other provision of this Agreement to payment of any Secured Obligations hereunder at the Default Rate. Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Secured Obligations hereunder.

3.9 Non-Banking Days . If any payment to be made by Borrower or any other Loan Party under any Loan Document shall come due on a day other than a Banking Day, payment shall instead be considered due on the next succeeding Banking Day and the extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest and fees.

3.10 Manner and Treatment of Payments .

(a) All payments to be made by Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Each payment hereunder (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) or on the Notes or under any other Loan Document shall be made to the Agent at the Agent’s Office in Dollars for the account of each of the Lenders or the Agent, as the case may be, in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. on the day of payment (which must be a Banking Day). All payments received after such time, on any Banking Day, shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Banking Day. The amount of all payments received by the Agent for the account of each Lender shall be promptly paid by the Agent to the applicable Lender in immediately available funds and, if such payment was received by the Agent by 11:00 a.m. on a Banking Day and not so made available to the account of a Lender on that Banking Day, the Agent shall reimburse that Lender for the cost to such Lender of funding the amount of such payment at the Federal Funds Rate. All payments shall be made in lawful money of the United States.

(b) Except to the extent provided in Sections 3.5 and  3.6(f) , each payment or prepayment on account of any Loan shall be applied pro rata according to the outstanding Advances made by each Lender comprising such Loan.

(c) Each Lender shall use its best efforts to keep a record (in writing or by an electronic data entry system) of Advances made by it and payments received by it with respect to each of its Notes. Subject to Section 11.8(c) , such record shall, as against Borrower, be presumptive evidence of the amounts owing. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the failure by any Lender to keep such a record shall not affect Borrower’s obligation to pay the Obligations.

64

3.11 Taxes .

(a) Issuing Lender . For purposes of this Section 3.11 , the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender.

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

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower . Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Agency in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by Borrower . Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Agency. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders . Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.8 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 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 Agency. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the 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 Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this subsection (e) .

(f) Evidence of Payments . As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Agency pursuant to this Section 3.11 , Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Agency

65

evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(g) Status of Lenders . (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or the Agent as will enable Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.11(g)(ii)(A) , (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 (or successor form) certifying that such Lender is not subject to U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

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

(i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN (or successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(ii) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form);

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit N-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section

66

881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “ U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate ”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or successor form);

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

(v) in all other cases, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or successor form).

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

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

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

The Agent shall be subject to this Section 3.11(g) , and shall deliver to Borrower any required forms described above, as if it were a Lender.

(h) 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

67

indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.11 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.11 ), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Agency 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 paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Agency) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Agency. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) 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.

(i) Survival . Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.11 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the 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.

(j) Mitigation . If any Lender requires Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender, the Issuing Lender, or any Governmental Agency for the account of any Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 3.11 , such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as applicable, agrees (at the request of Borrower) to use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office if such designation (1) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.11 , in the future and (2) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. If Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.11 , Borrower may replace such Lender or such Issuing Lender in accordance with Section 11.26 .

3.12 Funding Sources . Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan or Advance in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan or Advance in any particular place or manner.

3.13 Failure to Charge Not Subsequent Waiver . Any decision by the Agent or any Lender not to require payment of any interest (including interest arising under Section 3.7 ) fee, cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document, or to calculate any amount payable by a particular method, on any occasion shall in no way limit or be deemed a waiver of the Agent’s or such Lender’s right to require full payment of any interest (including interest arising under Section 3.7 ), fee, cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document, or to calculate an amount payable by another method that is not inconsistent with this Agreement, on any other or subsequent occasion.

3.14 Agent’s Right to Assume Payments Will be Made . Unless the Agent shall have been notified by Borrower prior to the date on which any payment to be made by Borrower hereunder is due that Borrower does not intend to remit such payment, the Agent may, in its discretion, assume that

68

Borrower has remitted such payment when so due and the Agent may, in its discretion and in reliance upon such assumption, make available to each Lender on such payment date an amount equal to such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s share of such assumed payment. If Borrower has not in fact remitted such payment to the Agent, each Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, shall forthwith on demand repay to the Agent the amount of such assumed payment made available to such Lender or Issuing Lender, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent at the Federal Funds Rate.

3.15 Fee Determination Detail . The Agent, and any Lender, shall provide reasonable detail to Borrower regarding the manner in which the amount of any payment to the Agent and the Lenders, or that Lender, under Article 3 has been determined, concurrently with demand for such payment.

3.16 Survivability . All of Borrower’s obligations under Sections 3.5 and 3.6 shall survive for the ninety (90) day period following the date on which the Commitments are terminated and all Loans hereunder are fully paid, and Borrower shall remain obligated thereunder for all claims under such Sections made by any Lender to Borrower prior to the expiration of such period to the extent provided in such Sections.

No application of payments will cure any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default caused by a failure to pay), or prevent acceleration, or continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the Loan Documents, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of the Lenders hereunder or thereunder or at Law or in equity.

The Agent each agrees that (a) voting rights in the Equity Interests of each Subsidiary Guarantor, but solely to the extent any such Subsidiary Guarantor is the holder of any Communications License, will remain with the holders of such voting rights upon and following the occurrence of an Event of Default until any required prior approvals of the FCC or other Governmental Agency, as applicable, shall have been obtained; (b) to the extent required by law, upon and following the occurrence of any Event of Default and foreclosure upon the Equity Interests of any Subsidiary of Borrower holding any Communications License by the Agent, there will be either an arm’s length private or public sale of such Equity Interests; and (c) prior to the exercise of stockholder rights by the purchaser at any such sale, the prior consent of the FCC pursuant to Section 310(d) of the Communications Act, and of any other Governmental Agency pursuant to applicable Communications Laws, will be obtained.

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Union Bank, N.A. to act on its behalf as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Other than Borrower’s consent rights set forth in Section 10.6 , the provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, and neither Borrower nor any other Subsidiary shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 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 the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

(b) The Agent . The Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Hedge Bank or potential Bank Product Lender) and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and the Issuing Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantors to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Agent pursuant to Section 10.5 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Agreements, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article 10 , as

The Person serving as the 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 the Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. 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, Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

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

(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b) The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Requisite Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 11.2 and 9.2 , or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Agent in writing by Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Lender.

(c) The Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or

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

10.5 Delegation of Duties . The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent.

The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Facilities as well as activities as Agent. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

10.6 Resignation of the Agent .

(a) The Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right, with the consent (if no Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(a) , (b)  or (j)  then exists and not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Requisite Lenders) (the “ Resignation Effective Date ”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above with the consent (if no Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(a) , (b)  or (j)  then exists and not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of Borrower. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) If the Person serving as the Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Requisite Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by

100

notice in writing to Borrower and such Person remove such Person as the Agent and, with the consent (if no Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(a) , (b)  or (j)  then exists and not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of Borrower, appoint a successor.

The execution of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party hereto or thereto will not become effective until counterparts hereof or thereof, as the case may be, have been executed by all the parties hereto or thereto.

11.8 Binding Effect; Assignment .

(a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower, the Agent, each of the Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns, except that Borrower may not assign its rights hereunder or thereunder or any interest herein or therein without the prior written consent of all the Lenders. Each Lender represents that it is not acquiring its Advances and other Obligations hereunder with a view to the distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (subject to any requirement that disposition of such Note must be within the control of such Lender). Any Lender may at any time pledge its Note or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank, but no such pledge shall release that Lender from its obligations hereunder or grant to such Federal Reserve Bank the rights of a Lender hereunder absent foreclosure of such pledge.

(b) From time to time following the Closing Date, each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of its respective Commitments and the Loans; provided that (i) such Eligible Assignee, if not then a Lender or an Affiliate of the assigning Lender, shall be approved by the Agent and the Issuing Lender and (if no Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(a) , (b)  or (j)  then exists) Borrower (neither of which approvals shall be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to

107

any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within 10 Banking Days after having received notice thereof, (ii) no such assignment shall be made to (A) Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), (iii) such assignment shall be evidenced by an Assignment and Acceptance, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Agent as hereinbelow provided, (iv)  except in the case of an assignment to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender, to another Lender or of the entire remaining Commitments and/or Loans of the assigning Lender, the assignment shall not assign any portion of any Commitment and/or Loans that is equivalent to less than $5,000,000 and (v) the effective date of any such assignment shall be as specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, but not earlier than the date which is five (5) Banking Days after the date the Agent has received the Assignment and Acceptance. Upon the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee named therein shall be a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, with the Pro Rata Share of the Commitments and/or Loans therein set forth and, to the extent of such Pro Rata Share, the assigning Lender shall be released from its further obligations under this Agreement; provided , that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Borrower agrees that, to the extent requested by any such Lender, it shall execute and deliver (against delivery by the assigning Lender to Borrower of its Notes) to such assignee Lender, Notes evidencing that assignee Lender’s respective Commitments and/or Loans, and to the assigning Lender, Notes evidencing the remaining balance of its respective Commitments and/or Loans. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent, the Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee thereunder acknowledges and agrees that: (i) other than the representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the Commitments and/or Loans being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, the assigning Lender has made no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (ii) the assigning Lender has made no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of Borrower or the performance by Borrower of the Obligations; (iii) it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 7.1 and such other documents and information as it has deemed

108

appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) it appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by this Agreement; (vi) it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender; and (vii) it is not a Disqualified Institution.

(d) The Agent shall maintain at the Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register (the “ Register ”) of the names and address of each of the Lenders and the Pro Rata Share of the Commitments and/or the principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans held by each Lender, giving effect to each Assignment and Acceptance. The Register shall be available during normal business hours for inspection by Borrower or any Lender upon reasonable prior notice to the Agent. After receipt of a completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by any Lender and an Eligible Assignee, and receipt of an assignment fee of $3,500 from such Lender or Eligible Assignee, the Agent shall, promptly following the effective date thereof, provide to Borrower and the Lenders a revised Schedule 1.1 giving effect thereto. Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the Commitments and/or Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitments and/or Loans shall be effective, in each case unless and until an Assignment and Acceptance effecting the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been accepted by the Agent and recorded in the Register as provided above. Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed with respect to the Commitments and/or Loans shall be owed to the Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments and/or Loans. All parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Agent shall have no obligation or duty to monitor or track whether any Disqualified Institution shall have become an assignee or Lender hereunder.

(e) Each Lender may from time to time grant participations to one or more banks or other financial institutions (other than a Disqualified Institution, a Defaulting Lender or Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) in a portion of the Commitments and/or Loans; provided , however , that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating banks or other financial institutions shall not be a Lender hereunder for any purpose except , if the participation agreement so provides, for the purposes of Sections 3.6 , 3.7 , 3.11 , 11.11 and 11.22 but only to the extent that the cost of such benefits to Borrower does not exceed the cost which Borrower would have incurred in respect of such Lender absent the participation, (iv) Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (v) the participation interest shall be expressed as a percentage of the granting Lender’s Commitments and/or Loans as it then exists and shall not restrict an increase in the Commitments and/or Loans, or in the granting Lender’s Commitments and/or Loans, so long as the amount of the participation interest is not affected thereby, (vi) the holder of the participation interest shall abide by the confidentiality provisions set forth herein and (vii) the consent of the holder of such participation interest shall not be required for amendments or waivers of provisions of the Loan Documents other than those which (a) extend the applicable Maturity Date or any other date upon which any payment of money is due to the Lenders, (b) reduce the rate of interest on the Loan, any fee or any other monetary amount payable to the

109

Lenders, (c) reduce the amount of any installment of principal due with respect to the Loan, (d) release any Subsidiary Guaranty, or (e) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Lien of the Collateral Documents, except if such release of Collateral occurs in connection with a Disposition permitted under Section 6.2 or grant of a purchase-money Lien of the type permitted by Section 6.9(g) (unless the holder of such Lien does not prohibit a subordinate Lien on the acquired property or assets, in which case the Agent shall subordinate its Lien on such acquired property or assets in a manner acceptable to the holder of the purchase-money Lien without the need for the consent of any Lender), in which case such release shall not require the consent of any of the Lenders or of any holder of a participation interest in the Commitments and/or Loans. In the event that a participation has been granted pursuant to this Section 11.8(e) to a financial institution that is not a U.S. Person, then, upon request made by Borrower or the Agent to the Lender which granted such participation, such Lender shall cause such participant financial institution to deliver the same documents and information to Borrower and the Agent as would be required under Section 3.11(g) if such financial institution were a Lender. Each Lender that grants a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loan or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “ Participant Register ”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent 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.

(f) Any assignment or participation made to any Disqualified Institution in violation of this Section 11.8(b) shall be void ab initio . In the event of such an assignment or participation in violation of Section 11.8(b) , Borrower shall be entitled to pursue any remedy available to it (whether at law or in equity, including specific performance to unwind such assignment or participation) against the assignor Lender and such Disqualified Institution. Borrower shall indemnify the Agent as a result of any such unwinding.

11.9 Right of Setoff . If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Agent, the Issuing Lender, the Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender (but in each case only with the consent of the Requisite Lenders) may exercise its rights under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable Laws and, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, apply any funds in any deposit account maintained with it by Borrower and/or any Property of Borrower in its possession against the Obligations; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.10 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent, the Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, the Issuing Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Issuing Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender agrees to notify Borrower and the Agent promptly after any such setoff and

110

application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

11.10 Sharing of Setoffs . Each Lender severally agrees that if it, through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim against Borrower, or otherwise receives payment of the Obligations held by it that is ratably more than any other Lender, through any means, receives in payment of the Obligations held by that Lender (in each case, other than (x) payment made by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.11 or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant (other than an assignment to Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof, as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply), then, subject to applicable Laws: (a) the Lender exercising the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or otherwise receiving such payment shall purchase, and shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased, from each of the other Lenders a participation in the Obligations held by the other Lenders and shall pay to the other Lenders a purchase price in an amount so that the share of the Obligations held by each Lender after the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment shall be in the same proportion that existed prior to the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment; and (b) such other adjustments and purchases of participations shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that all of the Lenders share any payment obtained in respect of the Obligations ratably in accordance with each Lender’s share of the Obligations immediately prior to, and without taking into account, the payment; provided that, if all or any portion of a disproportionate payment obtained as a result of the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or otherwise is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender by Borrower or any Person claiming through or succeeding to the rights of Borrower, the purchase of a participation shall be rescinded and the purchase price thereof shall be restored to the extent of the recovery, but without interest. Each Lender that purchases a participation in the Obligations pursuant to this Section 11.10 shall from and after the purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in an Obligation so purchased pursuant to this Section 11.10 may exercise any and all rights of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim with respect to the participation as fully as if the Lender were the original owner of the Obligation purchased.

11.11 Indemnity by Borrower . Borrower agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless the Agent, the Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender, the Arrangers and each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees (collectively the “ Indemnitees ”) from and against: (a) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action if the claim, demand, action or cause of action arises out of or relates to any act or omission (or alleged act or omission) of Borrower, its Affiliates or any of its officers, directors or stockholders relating to the Commitment, the use or contemplated use of proceeds of any Loan, or the relationship of Borrower and the Lenders under this Agreement; (b) any administrative or investigative proceeding by any Governmental Agency arising out of or related to a claim, demand, action or cause of action described in clause (a) above; and (c) any and all liabilities, losses, reasonable costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and the reasonably allocated costs of attorneys employed by any Indemnitee and disbursements of such attorneys and other professional services) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action or cause of action; provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any loss caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (determined to be so by a final determination of a court of competent jurisdiction) or for any loss asserted against it by

111

another Indemnitee. If any claim, demand, action or cause of action is asserted against any Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify Borrower, but the failure to so promptly notify Borrower shall not affect Borrower’s obligations under this Section unless such failure materially prejudices Borrower’s right to participate in the contest of such claim, demand, action or cause of action, as hereinafter provided. Such Indemnitee may (and shall, if requested by Borrower in writing) contest the validity, applicability and amount of such claim, demand, action or cause of action and shall permit Borrower to participate in such contest. Such Indemnitee shall act reasonably and in good faith in dealing with such claim, demand, action or cause of action, including in electing whether to offer or accept any settlement or compromise of such claim, demand, action or cause of action. Borrower shall have the burden of establishing the lack of good faith or reasonableness of such Indemnitee. Any Indemnitee that proposes to settle or compromise any claim or proceeding for which Borrower may be liable for payment of indemnity hereunder shall give Borrower written notice of the terms of such proposed settlement or compromise reasonably in advance of settling or compromising such claim or proceeding and shall obtain Borrower’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In connection with any claim, demand, action or cause of action covered by this Section 11.11 against more than one Indemnitee, all such Indemnitees shall be represented by the same legal counsel (which may be a law firm engaged by the Indemnitees or attorneys employed by an Indemnitee or a combination of the foregoing) selected by the Indemnitees and reasonably acceptable to Borrower; provided , that if such legal counsel determines in good faith that representing all such Indemnitees would or could result in a conflict of interest under Laws or ethical principles applicable to such legal counsel, then to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid such a conflict of interest or to permit unqualified assertion of such a defense or counterclaim, each affected Indemnitee shall be entitled to separate representation by legal counsel selected by that Indemnitee and reasonably acceptable to Borrower, with all such legal counsel using reasonable efforts to avoid unnecessary duplication of effort by counsel for all Indemnitees; and further provided that the Agent (as an Indemnitee) shall at all times be entitled to representation by separate legal counsel (which may be a law firm or attorneys employed by the Agent or a combination of the foregoing). Any obligation or liability of Borrower to any Indemnitee under this Section 11.11 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement and the repayment of all Loans and the payment and performance of all other Secured Obligations owed to the Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Borrower shall not be liable under this Section 11.11 for any amounts in respect of Indemnified Taxes, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 3.11 , or any amounts in respect of Excluded Taxes.

11.12 Nonliability of the Lenders . Borrower acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) Any inspections of any Property of Borrower made by or through the Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Lenders are for purposes of administration of the Loan only and Borrower is not entitled to rely upon the same (whether or not such inspections are at the expense of Borrower);

(b) By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed, fulfilled or given to the Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Lenders pursuant to the Loan Documents, neither the Agent, the Issuing Lender nor the Lenders shall be deemed to have warranted or represented the sufficiency, legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the same, or of any term, provision or condition thereof, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not constitute a warranty or representation to anyone with respect thereto by the Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Lenders;

(c) The relationship between Borrower and the Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders is, and shall at all times remain, solely that of borrowers and lenders; neither the Agent, the Issuing Lender nor the Lenders shall under any circumstance be construed to be partners or joint venturers of Borrower or its Affiliates; neither the Agent, the Issuing Lender nor the Lenders shall under any circumstance be deemed to be in a relationship of confidence or trust or a

112

fiduciary relationship with Borrower or its Affiliates, or to owe any fiduciary duty to Borrower or its Affiliates; neither the Agent, the Issuing Lender nor the Lenders undertake or assume any responsibility or duty to Borrower or its Affiliates to select, review, inspect, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform Borrower or its Affiliates of any matter in connection with their Property or the operations of Borrower or its Affiliates; Borrower and its Affiliates shall rely entirely upon their own judgment with respect to such matters; and any review, inspection, supervision, exercise of judgment or supply of information undertaken or assumed by the Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Lenders in connection with such matters is solely for the protection of the Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders and neither Borrower nor any other Person is entitled to rely thereon; and

(d) The Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall not be responsible or liable to any Person for any loss, damage, liability or claim of any kind relating to injury or death to Persons or damage to Property caused by the actions, inaction or negligence of Borrower and/or its Affiliates and Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds the Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders harmless on the terms set forth in Section 11.11 from any such loss, damage, liability or claim.

11.13 No Third Parties Benefited . This Agreement is made for the purpose of defining and setting forth certain obligations, rights and duties of Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders in connection with the Loans, and is made for the sole benefit of Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders, and the Agent’s and the Lenders’ successors and assigns. Except as provided in Sections 11.8 and  11.11 , no other Person shall have any rights of any nature hereunder or by reason hereof.

11.14 Confidentiality . Each Lender agrees to hold any confidential information that it may receive from Borrower in connection with this Agreement in confidence, except for disclosure: (a) to other Lenders or Affiliates of a Lender; (b) to legal counsel and accountants for Borrower or any Lender; (c) to other professional advisors to Borrower or any Lender, provided that the recipient has accepted such information subject to a confidentiality agreement substantially similar to this Section 11.14 ; (d) to regulatory officials having jurisdiction over that Lender (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (e) as required by Law or legal process, provided that each Lender agrees to notify Borrower of any such disclosures unless prohibited by applicable Laws, or in connection with any legal proceeding to which that Lender and Borrower are adverse parties; (f) to another financial institution in connection with a disposition or proposed disposition to that financial institution of all or part of that Lender’s interests hereunder or a participation interest in its Loan, or to a prospective Lender pursuant to Section 2.8(c) , provided that the recipient has accepted such information subject to a confidentiality agreement substantially similar to this Section 11.14 , (g) in connection with the exercise of remedies under any of the Loan Documents, (h) on a confidential basis to any rating agency in connection with rating Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder and (i) on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder. For purposes of the foregoing, “confidential information” shall mean any information respecting Borrower or its Subsidiaries reasonably considered by Borrower to be confidential, other than (i) information previously filed with any Governmental Agency and available to the public, (ii) information previously published in any public medium from a source other than, directly or indirectly, that Lender, and (iii) information previously disclosed by Borrower to any Person not associated with Borrower which does not owe a professional duty of confidentiality to Borrower or which has not executed an appropriate confidentiality agreement with Borrower. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to create or give rise to any fiduciary duty on the part of the Agent or the Lenders to Borrower.

113

11.15 Further Assurances . Borrower shall, at its expense and without expense to the Lenders or the Agent, do, execute and deliver such further acts and documents as the Requisite Lenders, the Agent from time to time reasonably requires for the assuring and confirming unto the Lenders or the Agent, of the rights hereby created or intended now or hereafter so to be, or for carrying out the intention or facilitating the performance of the terms of any Loan Document

11.16 Integration . This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and govern; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

11.17 GOVERNING LAW; VENUE

EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES THEREOF REGARDING CONFLICTS OF LAWS, AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES. BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN BORROWER AND ANY SECURED PARTY PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; PROVIDED , THAT EACH SECURED PARTY AND BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF SAN DIEGO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA; AND FURTHER PROVIDED , THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE ANY SECURED PARTY FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO COLLECT THE OBLIGATIONS, TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF THE AGENT FOR THE BENEFIT OF ITSELF AND THE OTHER SECURED PARTIES.

Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

115

JURY. IN THE EVENT THAT THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL SET FORTH IN THE PREVIOUS SENTENCE IS NOT ENFORCEABLE UNDER THE LAW APPLICABLE TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM, INCLUDING ANY QUESTION OF LAW OR FACT RELATING THERETO, SHALL, AT THE WRITTEN REQUEST OF ANY PARTY, BE DETERMINED BY JUDICIAL REFERENCE PURSUANT TO THE STATE LAW APPLICABLE TO THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES SHALL SELECT A SINGLE NEUTRAL REFEREE, WHO SHALL BE A RETIRED STATE OR FEDERAL JUDGE. IN THE EVENT THAT THE PARTIES CANNOT AGREE UPON A REFEREE, THE COURT SHALL APPOINT THE REFEREE. THE REFEREE SHALL REPORT A STATEMENT OF DECISION TO THE COURT. NOTHING IN THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY AT ANY TIME TO EXERCISE SELF-HELP REMEDIES, FORECLOSE AGAINST COLLATERAL OR OBTAIN PROVISIONAL REMEDIES. THE PARTIES SHALL BEAR THE FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE REFEREE EQUALLY, UNLESS THE REFEREE ORDERS OTHERWISE. THE REFEREE SHALL ALSO DETERMINE ALL ISSUES RELATING TO THE APPLICABILITY, INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PARAGRAPH. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IF A REFEREE IS SELECTED TO DETERMINE THE CLAIMS, THEN THE CLAIMS WILL NOT BE DECIDED BY A JURY.

11.23 Purported Oral Amendments . BORROWER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY ONLY BE AMENDED OR MODIFIED, OR THE PROVISIONS HEREOF OR THEREOF WAIVED OR SUPPLEMENTED, BY AN INSTRUMENT IN WRITING THAT COMPLIES WITH SECTION 11.2 .

11.24 Patriot Act . Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrower in accordance with the Act. Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.

11.25 [Reserved] .

11.26 Replacement of Lenders . If Borrower is entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.5 , 3.6 or 3.11 , if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or if any Lender (a “ Non-Consenting Lender ”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment or waiver which pursuant to the terms of Section 11.2 requires the consent of all of the Lenders or all of the affected Lenders and with respect to which the Requisite Lenders shall have granted their consent, then in each such case Borrower shall have the right, upon three (3) Banking Days’ prior notice (or such lesser period of notice as such Lender and the Agent may agree to) to such Lender and the Agent, to replace such Lender by requiring such Lender to assign, in accordance with Section 11.8 , all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.5 , 3.6 and 3.11 ) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that :

116

(a) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower (in the case of all other amounts),

(b) the replacement Lender shall pay the assignment fee referred to in Section 11.8(b) ,

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.5 or 3.6 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.11 , such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter,

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws;

(e) in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the replacement Lender shall grant its consent with respect to the applicable proposed amendment or waiver.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

11.27 Judgment Currency . If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency, Borrower agrees that (i) the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase Dollars with such other currency at 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the Banking Day preceding that on which judgment is given and (ii) it agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless the Agent, the Issuing Lender(s) and each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees from and against any and all losses, claims and demands resulting from such conversion.

11.28 Keepwell .

At such time as Borrower is a Qualified ECP Guarantor at the time the Subsidiary Guaranty by any Subsidiary Guarantor that is not then an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act (a “ Specified Loan Party ”) or the grant of a security interest under the Loan Documents by any such Specified Loan Party, in either case, becomes effective with respect to any Swap Obligation, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support to each Specified Loan Party with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Loan Party from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering Borrower’s obligations and undertakings under this Section 11.28 voidable under applicable Debtor Relief Laws, and not for any greater amount). The obligations and undertakings of Borrower under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full. Borrower intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each Specified Loan Party for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.
