SECTION 1.02.    Terms Generally. The definitions set forth or referred to in Section 1.01 shall apply equally to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined.

The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The word “or” shall not be exclusive. All references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be deemed references to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement unless the context shall otherwise require. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any reference in this Agreement to any Loan Document or any other agreement or contract shall mean such document, agreement or contract as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance herewith (to the extent applicable). Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided, that, if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the Closing Date in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith. Notwithstanding any changes in GAAP after December 31, 2018, any lease of the Borrower or the Subsidiaries, or of a special purpose or other entity not consolidated with the Borrower and its Subsidiaries at the time of its incurrence of such lease, that would be characterized as an operating lease under GAAP in effect on December 31, 2018 (whether such lease is entered into before or after the Closing Date) shall not constitute Indebtedness or a Capital Lease Obligation of the Borrower or any Subsidiary under this Agreement or any other Loan Document as a result of such changes in GAAP. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for all purposes of this Agreement, (a) no Master Lease or Gaming Lease (or Guarantee of the foregoing) shall constitute Liens, Indebtedness or a Capital Lease Obligation regardless of how such Master Lease or Gaming Lease may be treated under GAAP or for financial reporting purposes, (b) any interest portion of payments in connection with such Master Lease or Gaming Lease shall not constitute Interest Expense (or terms of similar effect) and (c) EBITDA and Consolidated Net Income (and terms of similar effect) shall be calculated by deducting, without duplication of amounts otherwise deducted, rent, insurance, property taxes and other amounts and

87

expenses actually paid in cash under any Master Lease or any Gaming Lease in the applicable Test Period and no deductions in calculating EBITDA or Consolidated Net Income (and terms of similar effect) shall occur as a result of imputed interest, amounts under any Master Lease or any Gaming Lease not paid in cash during the relevant Test Period or other non-cash amounts incurred in respect of any Master Lease or any Gaming Lease; provided that any “true-up” of rent paid in cash pursuant to any Master Lease or any Gaming Lease shall be accounted for in the fiscal quarter to which such payment relates as if such payment were originally made in such fiscal quarter.

SECTION 1.03.    Effectuation of Transactions. Each of the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in this Agreement and of the Loan Parties in each of the other Loan Documents (and all corresponding definitions) are made after giving effect to the Transactions as shall have taken place on or prior to the date of determination, unless the context otherwise requires.

SECTION 1.04.    Exchange Rates; Currency Equivalents.

(a)    The Administrative Agent shall determine the Spot Rate as of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating Dollar Equivalent amounts of Alternate Currency Letters of Credit and Alternate Currency Loans. Such Spot Rate shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rate employed in converting any amounts between Dollars and each Alternate Currency until the next Revaluation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by Loan Parties hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any currency (other than Dollars) for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement. No Default or Event of Default shall arise as a result of any limitation or threshold set forth in Dollars in Article VI or paragraph (f) or (j) of Section 7.01 being exceeded solely as a result of changes in currency exchange rates from those rates applicable on the first day of the fiscal quarter in which such determination occurs or in respect of which such determination is being made.

(b)    Wherever in this Agreement in connection with a Borrowing, conversion, continuation or prepayment of a Eurocurrency Loan or the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit, an amount, such as a required minimum or multiple amount, is expressed in Dollars, but such Borrowing, Eurocurrency Loan or Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternate Currency, such amount shall be the Alternate Currency Equivalent of such Dollar amount (rounded to the nearest unit of such Alternate Currency, with 0.5 of a unit being rounded upward), as determined by the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer, as applicable.

SECTION 1.05.    Times of Day. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall be references to Local Time.

SECTION 1.06.    Timing of Payment or Performance. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, when the payment of any obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty or obligation is stated to be due or performance required on a day which is not a Business Day, the date of such payment or performance shall extend to the immediately succeeding Business Day.

SECTION 1.07.    Limited Condition Transactions. For purposes of (i) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the calculation of the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, the Total Secured Leverage Ratio, the Total Leverage Ratio, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or the Borrower’s Liquidity, (ii) determining compliance with representations, warranties, Defaults or Events of Default or the Covenant Relief Period Conditions or (iii) testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of EBITDA or total assets), in each case, in connection with (a) a Permitted Business Acquisition

88

or other Investment permitted hereunder (including Permitted Business Acquisitions and other Investments subject to a letter of intent or purchase agreement) by the Borrower and/or any Subsidiaries, or (b) any unconditional repayment or redemption of, or offer to purchase, any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any subsidiary (any such transaction referred to in clauses (a) and (b), and any action to be taken in connection therewith (including the incurrence, issuance or repayment of any Indebtedness, the granting of any Liens, the making of any Restricted Payment or Investment, the consummation of any acquisition or disposition, and any designation or revocation of a designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary), a “Limited Condition Transaction”), at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”) (and regardless of whether or not the applicable provision makes express reference to this Section 1.07, a Limited Condition Transaction, an LCT Election or an LCT Test Date), the date of determination of whether any such Limited Condition Transaction or action to be taken in connection therewith is permitted under this Agreement (including for purposes of determining the Dollar equivalent amount of any Limited Condition Transaction denominated in currencies other than Dollars) shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction (or commitments with respect to Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith) are entered into (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith on a Pro Forma Basis as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent Test Period ending prior to the LCT Test Date, the Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such representation, warranty, absence of Default or Event of Default, Covenant Relief Period Conditions, liquidity requirement, ratio or basket, such representation, warranty, absence of Default or Event of Default, ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket (including due to fluctuations of the target of any Limited Condition Transaction) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or (ii) the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) had been consummated.

SECTION 1.08.    Additional Alternate Currencies for Loans and Letters of Credit.

(a)    The Borrower may from time to time request that Eurocurrency Revolving Loans and/or Letters of Credit be made in a currency other than Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros, Pound Sterling or Japanese Yen; provided that such requested currency is a lawful currency (other than Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros, Pound Sterling or Japanese Yen) that is readily available and freely transferable and convertible into Dollars. Such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent.

(b)    Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time 20 Business Days prior to the date of the desired Credit Event (or such other time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion).

(c)    In the case of a request for a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan of a Class in such other currency, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Facility Lender of the applicable Class thereof. Each Revolving Facility Lender of the applicable Class shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time 10 Business Days after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of Eurocurrency Revolving Loans in such requested currency.

89

(d)    Any failure by a Revolving Facility Lender of the applicable Class to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Revolving Facility Lender to permit Eurocurrency Revolving Loans of the applicable Class to be made in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and all Revolving Facility Lenders of the applicable Class consent to making Eurocurrency Revolving Loans in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternate Currency hereunder for purposes of any Borrowings of Eurocurrency Revolving Loans of the applicable Class. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this Section 1.08, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower.

(e)     In the case of a request for a Letter of Credit in such other currency, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable L/C Issuer thereof. Such L/C Issuer shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time 10 Business Days after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of Letters of Credit in such requested currency.

(f)    Any failure by an L/C Issuer to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such L/C Issuer to issue Letters of Credit in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer consent to making Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternate Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this Section 1.08, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower.

SECTION 1.09.    Change of Currency.

(a)    Each obligation of the Borrower to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption (in accordance with the EMU Legislation). If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if any Borrowing in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Borrowing, at the end of the then current Interest Period.

(b)    Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro.

(c)    Each provision of this Agreement also shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect a change in currency of any other country and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the change in currency.

90

SECTION 1.10.    Letter of Credit Amounts. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the 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 Issuer Document 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 (including, without limitation, for purposes of calculating any fees related thereto), whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.

SECTION 1.11. Basket and Ratio Calculations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary (i) unless the Borrower elects otherwise, if the Borrower or its Subsidiaries in connection with the consummation of any transaction or series of related transactions (A) incurs Indebtedness, creates Liens, makes asset sales or other dispositions, makes Investments, makes Restricted Payments, designates any subsidiary as restricted or unrestricted or repays any Indebtedness or takes any other action under or as permitted by a ratio-based basket and (B) incurs Indebtedness, creates Liens, makes asset sales or other dispositions, makes Investments, makes Restricted Payments, designates any subsidiary as restricted or unrestricted or repays any Indebtedness or takes any other action under a non-ratio-based basket (which shall occur on the same Business Day as the events in clause (A) above) under the same covenant, then the applicable ratio will be calculated with respect to any such action under the applicable ratio-based basket under the same covenant without regard to any such action under such non-ratio-based basket made in connection with such transaction or series of related transactions and (ii) if the Borrower or its Subsidiaries enters into any revolving, delayed draw or other committed debt facility, the Borrower may elect to determine compliance of such debt facility (including the incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens from time to time in connection therewith) with this Agreement and each other Loan Document on the date definitive loan documents with respect thereto are executed by all parties thereto, assuming the full amount of such facility is incurred (and any applicable Liens are granted) on such date, in lieu of determining such compliance on any subsequent date (including any date on which Indebtedness is incurred pursuant to such facility).

SECTION 1.12.    Divisions. Any reference in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to a merger, transfer, consolidation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to a division of or by a limited liability company, limited partnership or trust, or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited liability company, limited partnership or trust (or the unwinding of such a division or allocation), as if it were a merger, transfer, consolidation, assignment, sale or transfer, or similar term, as applicable, to, of or with a separate Person. Any division of a limited liability company, limited partnership or trust shall constitute a separate Person under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and each division of any limited liability company, limited partnership or trust that is a Subsidiary, joint venture or any other like term shall also constitute such a Person or entity).

(a)    each Lender with a Revolving Facility Commitment of a Class agrees to make Revolving Facility Loans of such Class to the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period for such Class of Revolving Facility in Dollars and each Alternate Currency in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (i) such Lender’s Revolving Facility Credit Exposure of such Class exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment of such Class and (ii) the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure of such Class exceeding the total Revolving Facility Commitments under such Class of Revolving Facility; provided the amount of Revolving Facility Loans borrowed on the Closing Date shall not exceed $600.0 million.

(c)    At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount not less than the Borrowing Minimum and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Facility Borrowing, that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple.

Borrowings of more than one Type and under more than one Facility may be outstanding at the same time; provided, that there shall not at any time be more than a total of (i) eight Eurocurrency Borrowings outstanding under the Term Facilities and (ii) eight Eurocurrency Borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Facility.

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

(A)    subject to Section 2.05(b)(iii), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit and the Borrower have approved such expiry date (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); or

(B)    the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date for such Revolving Facility, unless all the Revolving Facility Lenders under such Revolving Facility have approved such expiry date (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or the Borrower has agreed to Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date for such Revolving Facility.

(iii)    The L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit under any Revolving Facility if:

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

94

(B)    the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the L/C Issuer applicable to letters of credit generally;

(C)    except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $100,000, in the case of a commercial Letter of Credit, or $100,000, in the case of a standby Letter of Credit;

(D)    such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder;

(E)    a default of any Revolving Facility Lender under such Revolving Facility to fund its obligations under Section 2.05(c) exists or any Revolving Facility Lender under such Revolving Facility is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Revolving Facility Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Revolving Facility Lender; or

(F)    the stated amount of such Letter of Credit would cause the aggregate stated amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer to exceed the aggregate amount of such L/C Issuer’s Letter of Credit Commitment (unless such L/C Issuer has consented thereto).

(iv)    The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if the L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof.

(v)    The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

(vi)    The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Revolving Facility Lenders under the applicable Revolving Facility with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article VIII with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article VIII included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer.

(b)    Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.

(i)    Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than (x) with respect to Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, 12:00 p.m. Local Time at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be, and (y) with respect to Alternate Currency Letters of Credit, 9:00 a.m. Local Time at least five Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit,

95

such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount and currency thereof (which may be Dollars or any Alternate Currency); (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and the Revolving Facility under which such Letter of Credit is being issued; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably request. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably request. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

(ii)    Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Revolving Facility Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 4.01 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower (or its subsidiaries or other Persons requested by the Borrower) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit under any Revolving Facility, each Revolving Facility Lender under such Revolving Facility shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage under such Revolving Facility times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

(iii)    If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit under any Revolving Facility that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit under any Revolving Facility has been issued, the Revolving Facility Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date under such Revolving Facility (or any later date if the Borrower has agreed to Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date for such Revolving Facility); provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.05(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Majority Lenders under the applicable Revolving Facility have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Facility Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.01 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.

96

(iv)    If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit under any Revolving Facility that permits the automatic reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof after any drawing thereunder (each, an “Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit”). Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer to permit such reinstatement. Once an Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit has been issued under any Revolving Facility, except as provided in the following sentence, the Revolving Facility Lenders under such Revolving Facility shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to reinstate all or a portion of the stated amount thereof in accordance with the provisions of such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit permits the L/C Issuer to decline to reinstate all or any portion of the stated amount thereof after a drawing thereunder by giving notice of such non-reinstatement within a specified number of days after such drawing (the “Non-Reinstatement Deadline”), the L/C Issuer shall not permit such reinstatement if it has received a notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Reinstatement Deadline (A) from the Administrative Agent that the Majority Lenders under the applicable Revolving Facility have elected not to permit such reinstatement or (B) from the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Facility Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.01 is not then satisfied (treating such reinstatement as an L/C Credit Extension for purposes of this clause) and, in each case, directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such reinstatement.

(v)    Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(c)    Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

(i)    Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than (1) 1:00 p.m., Local Time, on the first Business Day after the date that the L/C Issuer provides notice to the Borrower of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit or (2) 11:00 a.m., Local Time, on the second succeeding Business Day (if such notice is provided after 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on the date such notice is given) (each such applicable date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer (and the L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any failure by the Borrower to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time) in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and either in Dollars (in the case of an Alternate Currency Letter of Credit, in the Dollar Equivalent amount) or, if agreed by the Borrower and applicable L/C Issuer, in the applicable currency. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Facility Lender under the Revolving Facility pursuant to which such Letter of Credit was issued of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing in Dollars (calculated, in the case of any Alternate Currency Letter of Credit, based on the Dollar Equivalent thereof) (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage thereof. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans under the Revolving Facility under which such Letter of Credit was issued to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum Borrowing Minimums or Borrowing Multiples, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Facility Commitments under such Revolving Facility and the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 (other than the delivery of a Borrowing Request). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.05(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

97

(ii)    Each Revolving Facility Lender under the Revolving Facility under which such Letter of Credit was issued shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer, in Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s Office for Dollar-denominated payments in an amount equal to its Revolving Facility Percentage under such Revolving Facility of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.05(c)(iii), each Revolving Facility Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made an ABR Revolving Loan under the applicable Revolving Facility to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer in Dollars.

(iii)    With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Borrowing Request) cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing under the applicable Revolving Facility in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) in Dollars and shall bear interest at the rate specified in Section 2.13(c). In such event, each Revolving Facility Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance under the applicable Revolving Facility from such Revolving Facility Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.05.

(iv)    Until each Revolving Facility Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility funds its ABR Revolving Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.

(v)    Each Revolving Facility Lender’s obligation to make ABR Revolving Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit under a Revolving Facility under which such Lender has a Revolving Facility Commitment, as contemplated by this Section 2.05(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Facility Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make ABR Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Borrowing Request). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi)    If any Revolving Facility Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.05(c) by the time specified in Section 2.05(c)(ii), the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such

98

Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s ABR Revolving Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Facility Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)    Repayment of Participations.

(i)    At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Facility Lender such Revolving Facility Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.05(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Revolving Facility Lender its Revolving Facility Percentage thereof under the applicable Revolving Facility in Dollars and in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii)    If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(i) in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit under any Revolving Facility is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 8.10 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Revolving Facility Lender under such Revolving Facility shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Revolving Facility Percentage under such Revolving Facility thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Revolving Facility Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Revolving Facility Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e)    Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i)    any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

(ii)    the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii)    any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit that appears on its face to be valid proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv)    any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment

99

made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or

(v)    any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any Subsidiary.

The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will promptly notify the L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f)    Role of L/C Issuer. Each Revolving Facility Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Revolving Facility Lenders or the Majority Lenders under the Revolving Facility under which such Letter of Credit was issued, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.05(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

(g)    Cash Collateral.

(i)    Upon the request of the Administrative Agent if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall promptly Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations.

100

(ii)    Sections 2.11(e), 2.22 and 7.01 set forth certain additional requirements to deliver Cash Collateral hereunder. For purposes of Sections 2.05, 2.11(e), 2.22 and 7.01, “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Revolving Facility Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances, in each case, pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby consented to by the Lenders) or to otherwise backstop (with a letter of credit on customary terms or otherwise) such L/C Obligations to the applicable L/C Issuer’s and the Administrative Agent’s reasonable satisfaction. Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Revolving Facility Lenders under any Revolving Facility under which a Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Except as otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent, Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at JPMorgan.

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

(i)    Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

(j)    Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries or other Persons at the Request of the Borrower. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a subsidiary or any other Person requested by the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under any such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of subsidiaries and such other Persons inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such subsidiaries and other Persons.

(k)    Additional L/C Issuers. From time to time, the Borrower may by notice to the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the applicable Revolving Facility Lender designate such Revolving Facility Lender to act as an L/C Issuer hereunder. In the event that there shall be more than one L/C Issuer hereunder, each reference to “the L/C Issuer” hereunder with respect to any Letter of Credit shall refer to the person that issued such Letter of Credit and each such additional L/C Issuer shall be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement as an L/C Issuer to the same extent as if it had been originally named as an L/C Issuer hereunder. Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit (including any Existing Letter of Credit) to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, each L/C Issuer (other than JPMorgan) will also deliver to the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. On the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December (and on such other dates as the Administrative Agent may request), each L/C Issuer shall provide the Administrative Agent a list of all Letters of Credit (including any Existing Letter of Credit) issued by it that are outstanding at such time together with such other information as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

(l)    Resignation of an L/C Issuer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any L/C Issuer may, upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Borrower and the Revolving Facility Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer; provided that on or prior to the expiration of such 30-day period with respect to such resignation as L/C Issuer, the applicable L/C Issuer shall have identified a successor L/C Issuer

101

reasonably acceptable to the Borrower willing to accept its appointment as successor L/C Issuer with a Letter of Credit Commitment equal to the Letter of Credit Commitment of the resigning L/C Issuer (unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower). If an L/C Issuer resigns, it shall retain all the rights and obligations of the L/C Issuer with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it that are outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make ABR Revolving Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.05(c)).

SECTION 2.06.    Funding of Borrowings.

(a)    Each Lender shall make each Term Loan or Revolving Facility Loan to be made by it hereunder available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the applicable currency not later than (i) 12:00 p.m., Local Time, in the case of any ABR Loan denominated in Dollars, (ii) 10:00 a.m., Local Time, in the case of any Eurocurrency Loan denominated in Dollars or (iii) 5:00 a.m., Local Time, in the case of any Eurocurrency Loans denominated in any Alternate Currency, in each case, on the Business Day specified in the applicable Borrowing Request. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower as specified in the Borrowing Request; provided, however, that if, on the date the Borrowing Request with respect to a Revolving Facility Borrowing denominated in Dollars is given by the Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding under the applicable Revolving Facility, then the proceeds of such Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, and, second, shall be made available to the Borrower as provided above.

(b)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of ABR Loans, prior to 9:00 a.m., Local Time, on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.06(a) (or, in the case of a Borrowing of ABR Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.06(a)) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans under the applicable Facility. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 2.07.    Interest Elections.

(a)    Each Borrowing of Revolving Facility Loans or Term Loans initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect

102

to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.07; provided, that except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrency Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Loan. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Revolving Facility Borrowing or Term Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b)    To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.07, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or electronic means to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in the form of Exhibit C and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.

(c)    Each written Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i)    the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii)    the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii)    whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and

(iv)    if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period.”

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d)    Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender to which such Interest Election Request relates of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e)    If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing and Alternate Currency Borrowings shall be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the written request (including a request through electronic means) of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing denominated in Dollars may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the

103

Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) each Eurocurrency Revolving Facility Borrowing shall, unless repaid, be continued as a Eurocurrency Revolving Facility Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

SECTION 2.08.    Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a)    Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Facility Commitments of any Class shall terminate on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to such Class.

(b)    The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Facility Commitments of any Class; provided, that (i) each such reduction of the Revolving Facility Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1.0 million and not less than $5.0 million (or, if less, the remaining amount of such Class of Revolving Facility Commitments) and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Facility Commitments of any Class if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Facility Loans in accordance with Section 2.11 under such Revolving Facility, the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure of such Class (excluding any Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit) would exceed the total Revolving Facility Commitments of such Class.

(c)    The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Facility Commitments of any Class under clause (b) of this Section 2.08 at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction (or such shorter period acceptable to the Administrative Agent), specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be irrevocable; provided, that a notice of termination or reduction of the Revolving Facility Commitments of any Class delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, indentures or similar agreements or other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of a Class shall be made ratably among the applicable Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

SECTION 2.09.    Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a)    The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Facility Lender under each Revolving Facility the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Facility Loan under such Revolving Facility on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to such Revolving Facility and (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.10.

(b)    Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c)    The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount and currency of each Loan made hereunder, the Facility and Type thereof and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) any amount received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

104

(d)    Subject to the amounts recorded in the Register, which shall be controlling, the entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 2.09 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e)    Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note (a “Note”). In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Thereafter, unless otherwise agreed to by the applicable Lender, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if requested by such payee, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.10.    Repayment of Term Loans and Revolving Facility Loans.

(a)    Subject to the other paragraphs of this Section 2.10:

(i)    in the event that any Incremental Term Loans are made on an Increased Amount Date, the Borrower shall repay such Incremental Term Loans on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the related Incremental Assumption Agreement (each such date being referred to as an “Incremental Term Loan Installment Date”); and

(ii)    to the extent not previously paid, outstanding Term Loans shall be due and payable on the applicable Term Facility Maturity Date.

(b)    To the extent not previously paid, outstanding Revolving Facility Loans of any Class shall be due and payable on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to such Class.

(c)    Prepayment of the Term Loans from:

(i)    all Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 2.11(b), Excess Cash Flow pursuant to Section 2.11(c) and prepayments of Term Loans required by Section 2.11(d) shall be applied to the Term Loans pro rata among each Term Facility, with the application thereof being applied to the remaining installments thereof in direct order of maturity; provided that, subject to the pro rata application to Loans outstanding within any Class of Term Loans, the Borrower may allocate such prepayment in its sole discretion among the Class or Classes of Term Loans as the Borrower may specify (so long as such mandatory prepayments are not directed to any Class of Term Loans with a later Term Facility Maturity Date without at least a pro rata repayment of each Class of Term Loans with an earlier Term Facility Maturity Date);

(ii)    any optional prepayments of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a) shall be applied to the remaining installments of the Term Loans as the Borrower may direct under the applicable Class or Classes as the Borrower may direct; and

105

(iii)    any prepayment of Term Loans of a particular Class pursuant to Section 2.11(h) or 9.04(i) shall be applied to the remaining installments of such Class of Term Loans on a pro rata basis.

(d)     Prior to any prepayment of any Loan under any Facility hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings under the applicable Facility to be prepaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by electronic means) of such selection not later than 12:00 p.m., Local Time, (i) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, at least one Business Day before the scheduled date of such prepayment and (ii) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, at least three Business Days before the scheduled date of such prepayment (or, in each case such shorter period acceptable to the Administrative Agent); provided, that a notice of prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, indentures or similar agreements or other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. All repayments of Loans shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid to the extent required by Section 2.13(d).

SECTION 2.11.    Prepayment of Loans.

(a)    (i) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Loan in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (except as provided by Section 2.16), in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum or, if less, the amount outstanding, upon prior notice in accordance with Section 2.10(d). Each such notice shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Class(es) and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurocurrency Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of such prepayment.

(ii)    [Reserved].

(iii)    In addition to the foregoing, and provided that immediately before and after giving effect thereto no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and after giving effect thereto the Borrower is in Pro Forma Compliance (calculated without excluding Development Expenses), the Borrower shall have the right to elect to offer to prepay the Term Loans at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof on a pro rata basis and apply any amounts rejected for such prepayment to repurchase, prepay, redeem, retire, acquire, defease or cancel Indebtedness or make Restricted Payments notwithstanding any then applicable limitations set forth in Section 6.09(b)(i) or Section 6.06, respectively. If the Borrower makes such an election, it shall provide notice thereof to Administrative Agent, who shall promptly, and in any event within one Business Day of receipt, provide such notice to the holders of the Term Loans. Any such notice shall specify the aggregate amount offered to prepay the Term Loans. Each holder of a Term Loan may elect, in its sole discretion, to reject its pro rata share of such prepayment offer. Any rejection of such offer must be evidenced by written notice delivered to Administrative Agent within five Business Days of receipt of the offer for prepayment, specifying an amount of such prepayment offer rejected by such holder, if any. Failure to give such notice will constitute an election to accept such offer. Any portion of such prepayment offer so accepted will be used to prepay the Term Loans held by the applicable holders within ten Business Days of the date of receipt of the offer to prepay. Any portion of such prepayment rejected may be used by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries to repurchase, prepay, redeem, retire, acquire, defease or cancel Indebtedness or make Restricted Payments notwithstanding any then applicable limitations set forth in Section 6.09(b)(i) or Section 6.06, respectively.

106

(b)    Subject to Section 2.11(f) and (g), the Borrower shall apply all Net Proceeds promptly upon receipt thereof to prepay Term Loans in accordance with clauses (c) and (d) of Section 2.10; provided that, at any time, the Borrower may use a portion of such Net Proceeds to prepay or repurchase any Indebtedness that is secured by pari passu Liens on the Collateral permitted by Section 6.02 (including, without limitation, Indebtedness incurred under Section 6.01(ii)(ii) and any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of any of the foregoing that is secured by pari passu Liens on the Collateral), in each case in an amount not to exceed the product of (x) the amount of such Net Proceeds multiplied by (y) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of such Indebtedness with a pari passu lien on the Collateral and (B) the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of such Indebtedness and the outstanding principal amount of all Classes of Term Loans. The Borrower shall cause (a) any Convention Center Unrestricted Subsidiary that receives Convention Center Unrestricted Subsidiary Sale Proceeds to promptly distribute the Net Proceeds thereof to the Borrower or a Subsidiary for application in accordance with this Section 2.11(b) and (b) any Interactive Entertainment Unrestricted Subsidiary that receives Interactive Entertainment Unrestricted Subsidiary Sale Proceeds to promptly distribute the Net Proceeds thereof to the Borrower or a Subsidiary for application in accordance with Section 2.11(b), in each case, except to the extent applied to repay Indebtedness of an Unrestricted Subsidiary or such a distribution is otherwise prohibited by applicable law or the terms of any agreement binding on an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(c)    Subject to Section 2.11(f) and (g), within five (5) Business Days after financial statements are delivered under Section 5.04(a) with respect to each Excess Cash Flow Period, the Borrower shall calculate Excess Cash Flow for such Excess Cash Flow Period and shall apply an amount equal to (i) the amount by which the Required Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow exceeds $15.0 million, minus to the extent not financed using the proceeds of the incurrence of funded long term Indebtedness (other than revolving loans) (ii) the sum of (A) the amount of any voluntary prepayments during such Excess Cash Flow Period (plus, at the Borrower’s option, without duplication of any amounts previously deducted under this clause (A), the amount of any voluntary prepayments after the end of such Excess Cash Flow Period but before the date of prepayment under this clause (c)) of (x) Term Loans (it being understood that the amount of any such payment constituting a below-par Permitted Loan Purchase shall be calculated to equal the amount of cash used and not the principal amount deemed prepaid therewith), (y) Revolving Facility Loans that were borrowed on the Closing Date to fund any original issue discount or upfront fees required to be funded on the Closing Date pursuant to the “market flex” provisions in the Fee Letter and (z) Other Pari Passu Indebtedness (provided that in the case of the prepayment of any revolving Indebtedness, there was a corresponding reduction in commitments), (B) the amount of any mandatory prepayment of any Indebtedness originally incurred pursuant to Section 6.01(jj) (or any Refinancing thereof) pursuant to an “excess cash flow sweep” (including, without limitation, Section 2.11(c) of the CRC Credit Agreement) (or equivalent provision) under the documents governing such Indebtedness made during such Excess Cash Flow Period (or, at the Borrower’s option, without duplication, made or to be made after the end of such Excess Cash Flow Period for the fiscal year corresponding to such Excess Cash Flow Period) and (C) the amount of any permanent voluntary reductions during such Excess Cash Flow Period (plus, at the Borrower’s option, without duplication of any amounts previously deducted under this clause (C), the amount of any permanent voluntary reductions after the end of such Excess Cash Flow Period but before the date of prepayment under this clause (c)) of Revolving Facility Commitments to the extent that an equal amount of Revolving Facility Loans was simultaneously repaid, (I) to prepay Term Loans in accordance with clauses (c) and (d) of Section 2.10 or (II) to prepay Term Loans in accordance with clauses (c) and (d) of Section 2.10 and to prepay any other Indebtedness that is secured by pari passu Liens on the Collateral permitted by Section 6.02 in accordance with the agreement(s) governing such other Indebtedness so long as the prepayments under this clause (II) are applied in a manner such that the Term Loans are prepaid on at least a ratable basis with such other Indebtedness (determined based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans and the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such other Indebtedness being prepaid under this clause (II) on the date of such prepayment). Not later than the date on which the payment is required to be

107

made pursuant to the foregoing sentence for each applicable Excess Cash Flow Period, the Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower setting forth the amount, if any, of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year, the amount of any required prepayment in respect thereof and the calculation thereof in reasonable detail.

(d)    [Reserved].

(e)    If the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower at any time that the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure for any Revolving Facility at such time exceeds an amount equal to 105% of the Revolving Facility Commitments then in effect under such Revolving Facility, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall (at its option) prepay Revolving Facility Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations, in each case, under such Revolving Facility in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure under such Revolving Facility as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Revolving Facility Commitments then in effect under such Revolving Facility. The Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to time after any such initial deposit of such Cash Collateral, request that additional Cash Collateral be provided in order to protect against the results of further exchange rate fluctuations.

(f)    Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event the Borrower is required to make any mandatory prepayment (a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Term Loans, not less than three Business Days prior to the date (the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which the Borrower elects (or is otherwise required) to make such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Term Loan of the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and such Lender’s option to refuse such amount. Each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent of its election to do so on or before the second Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender which does not notify the Administrative Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the first Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option). On the Required Prepayment Date, (i) the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent the amount of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment less the amount of Declined Proceeds, which amount shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to prepay the Term Loans of those Lenders that have elected to accept such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment (each, an “Accepting Lender”) (which prepayment shall be applied to the scheduled installments of principal of the Term Loans in the applicable Class(es) of Term Loans in accordance with paragraphs (c) and (d) of Section 2.10), and (ii) the Borrower may retain a portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment otherwise payable to those Lenders that have elected to exercise such option and decline such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”). Such Declined Proceeds shall be retained by the Borrower and may be used for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement.

(g)    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.11 to the contrary, (i) to the extent that any Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, Sale and Lease-Back Transaction, Interim Trust Asset Disposition or casualty insurance settlement or condemnation award of a Foreign Subsidiary or Excess Cash Flow attributable to a Foreign Subsidiary is prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable local law or material documents (including constituent and organizational documents) from being repatriated to the United States, an amount equal to the portion of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans or other Indebtedness that is secured by Liens on the Collateral permitted by Section 6.02 at the times provided in Section 2.11(b) or Section 2.11(c) so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law or material documents will not permit repatriation to the United States, and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted

108

under the applicable local law or material documents, an amount equal to such repatriated Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans or other Indebtedness that is secured by Liens on the Collateral permitted by Section 6.02 pursuant to Section 2.11(b) or Section 2.11(c), to the extent provided herein, (ii) to the extent that the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any or all of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow could reasonably be expected to have an adverse tax cost consequence that is not de minimis with respect to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, an amount equal to the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans or other Indebtedness that is secured by Liens on the Collateral permitted by Section 6.02 at the times provided in Section 2.11(b) or 2.11(c) (the Borrower hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts (which shall not be required to extend beyond twelve (12) months after the applicable prepayment date) to eliminate such tax effects in its reasonable control in order to make such prepayments), (iii) to the extent that any Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is required to be applied to prepay Indebtedness originally incurred under Section 6.01(jj) (or any Refinancing thereof) by the terms of the documents governing such Indebtedness, or to be reinvested by CRC or its subsidiaries by the terms of the documents governing any Indebtedness originally incurred under Section 6.01(jj) (or any Refinancing thereof), or cannot be distributed by CRC to the Borrower in accordance with the terms of the documents governing any Indebtedness originally incurred under Section 6.01(jj) (or any Refinancing thereof), the portion of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans or other Indebtedness that is secured by Liens on the Collateral permitted by Section 6.02 at the times provided in Section 2.11(b) or Section 2.11(c) but may be retained by CRC and its subsidiaries and (iv) to the extent that any Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow cannot be distributed by CEC in accordance with the MLSAs, the portion of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans or other Indebtedness that is secured by Liens on the Collateral permitted by Section 6.02 at the times provided in Section 2.11(b) or Section 2.11(c) but may be retained by CEC and its subsidiaries. For the avoidance of doubt, the non-application of any amounts required to be applied pursuant to Section 2.11(b) or Section 2.11(c) as a consequence of the foregoing provisions does not constitute a Default or an Event of Default, and such amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries so long as not required to be prepaid in accordance with the foregoing provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayments required after application of the above provision shall be net of any costs, expenses or taxes incurred by the Borrower or any of its affiliates and arising as a result of compliance with this Section 2.11.

(h)    (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.11(a) or 2.18(c) (which provisions shall not be applicable to this Section 2.11(h)), the Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay Term Loans and/or repay Revolving Facility Loans of any Class (with, in the case of Revolving Facility Loans under any Revolving Facility, a corresponding permanent reduction in the Revolving Facility Commitment of each Lender who receives a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment), to the Lenders at a discount to the par value of such Loans and on a non pro rata basis (each, a “Discounted Voluntary Prepayment”) pursuant to the procedures described in this Section 2.11(h); provided that (A) any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be offered to all Lenders with Term Loans of any Class and/or Revolving Facility Loans of any Class on a pro rata basis with all Lenders of such Class, and after giving effect to any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, there shall be sufficient aggregate Revolving Facility Commitments among the Revolving Facility Lenders to apply to the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations as of such date, unless the Borrower shall concurrently with the payment of the purchase price by the Borrower for such Revolving Facility Loans, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(g) in the amount of any such excess Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations, (B) no Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be made from the proceeds of any extensions of credit under the Revolving Facility and (C) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Financial Officer of the Borrower stating (1) that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment (after giving effect to any related waivers or amendments obtained in connection with such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment), (2)

109

that each of the conditions to such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment contained in this Section 2.11(h) has been satisfied and (3) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans and/or Revolving Facility Loans so prepaid pursuant to such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment.

(i)    To the extent the Borrower seeks to make a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, the Borrower will provide written notice to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit F (each, a “Discounted Prepayment Option Notice”) that the Borrower desires to prepay Term Loans and/or repay Revolving Facility Loans of an applicable Class (with a corresponding permanent reduction in Revolving Facility Commitments of such Class) in each case in an aggregate principal amount specified therein by the Borrower (each, a “Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount”), in each case at a discount to the par value of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Facility Loans as specified below. The Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount of Term Loans or Revolving Facility Loans shall not be less than $5.0 million. The Discounted Prepayment Option Notice shall further specify with respect to the proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment: (A) the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount for Term Loans and/or Revolving Facility Loans of the applicable Class, (B) a discount range (which may be a single percentage) selected by the Borrower with respect to such proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment equal to a percentage of par of the principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Facility Loans of such Class (the “Discount Range”) and (C) the date by which Lenders are required to indicate their election to participate in such proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment which shall be at least five Business Days following the date of the Discounted Prepayment Option Notice (the “Acceptance Date”). Upon receipt of a Discounted Prepayment Option Notice with respect to Revolving Facility Loans, the Administrative Agent shall notify the L/C Issuer thereof and Discounted Voluntary Prepayments in respect thereof shall be subject to the consent of the L/C Issuer, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(ii)    Upon receipt of a Discounted Prepayment Option Notice and receipt by the Administrative Agent of any required consent from the L/C Issuer in accordance with Section 2.11(h)(ii), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. On or prior to the Acceptance Date, each such Lender may specify by written notice substantially in the form of Exhibit G (each, a “Lender Participation Notice”) to the Administrative Agent (A) a maximum discount to par (the “Acceptable Discount”) within the Discount Range (for example, a Lender specifying a discount to par of 20% would accept a purchase price of 80% of the par value of the Loans to be prepaid) and (B) a maximum principal amount (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Administrative Agent) of Term Loans and/or Revolving Facility Loans held by such Lender with respect to which such Lender is willing to permit a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment at the Acceptable Discount (“Offered Loans”). Based on the Acceptable Discounts and principal amounts of Term Loans and/or Revolving Facility Loans of the applicable Class(es) specified by the Lenders in the applicable Lender Participation Notice, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, shall determine the applicable discount for Term Loans and/or Revolving Facility Loans of the applicable Class(es) (the “Applicable Discount”), which Applicable Discount shall be (A) the percentage specified by the Borrower if the Borrower has selected a single percentage pursuant to Section 2.11(h)(ii) for the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment or (B) otherwise, the highest Acceptable Discount at which the Borrower can pay the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount in full (determined by adding the principal amounts of Offered Loans commencing with the Offered Loans with the highest Acceptable Discount); provided, however, that in the event that such Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount cannot be repaid in full at any Acceptable Discount, the Applicable Discount shall be the lowest Acceptable Discount specified by the Lenders that is within the Discount Range. The Applicable Discount shall be applicable for all Lenders who have offered to participate in the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment and have Qualifying Loans (as defined below). Any Lender with outstanding Loans whose Lender Participation Notice is not received by the Administrative Agent by the Acceptance Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment of any of its Loans at any discount to their par value within the Applicable Discount.

110

(iii)    The Borrower shall make a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment by prepaying those Term Loans and/or Revolving Facility Loans (or the respective portions thereof) (with, in the case of Revolving Facility Loans, a corresponding permanent reduction in Revolving Facility Commitments) of the applicable Class(es) offered by the Lenders (“Qualifying Lenders”) that specify an Acceptable Discount that is equal to or greater than the Applicable Discount (“Qualifying Loans”) at the Applicable Discount; provided that if the aggregate proceeds required to prepay all Qualifying Loans (disregarding any interest payable at such time) would exceed the amount of aggregate proceeds required to prepay the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount, such amounts in each case calculated by applying the Applicable Discount, the Borrower shall prepay such Qualifying Loans ratably among the Qualifying Lenders based on their respective principal amounts of such Qualifying Loans (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Administrative Agent). If the aggregate proceeds required to prepay all Qualifying Loans (disregarding any interest payable at such time) would be less than the amount of aggregate proceeds required to prepay the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount, such amounts in each case calculated by applying the Applicable Discount, the Borrower shall prepay all Qualifying Loans.

(iv)    Each Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be made within five Business Days of the Acceptance Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree, given the time required to calculate the Applicable Discount and determine the amount and holders of Qualifying Loans), without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 2.16), upon irrevocable notice substantially in the form of Exhibit H (each a “Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice”), delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 P.M. Local time, three Business Days prior to the date of such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, which notice shall specify the date and amount of the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment and the Applicable Discount determined by the Administrative Agent. Upon receipt of any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable to the applicable Lenders, subject to the Applicable Discount on the applicable Loans, on the date specified therein together with accrued interest (on the par principal amount) to but not including such date on the amount prepaid.

(v)    To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to reasonable procedures (including as to timing, rounding, minimum amounts, Type and Interest Periods and calculation of Applicable Discount in accordance with Section 2.11(h)(iii) above) established by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower.

111

(b)    The Borrower from time to time agrees to pay (i) to each Revolving Facility Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender; provided that at any time that an L/C Issuer has Fronting Exposure to a Defaulting Lender, until such Fronting Exposure has been reduced to zero, the L/C Participation Fee attributable to such Fronting Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer shall be payable to such L/C Issuer) under any Revolving Facility, through the Administrative Agent, three Business Days after the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and three Business Days after the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments of all the Lenders under such Revolving Facility shall be terminated as provided herein, a fee (an “L/C Participation Fee”) on such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the daily aggregate Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations (excluding the portion thereof attributable to Unreimbursed Amounts) of such Class, during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Closing Date or ending with the Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to such Revolving Facility or the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments of such Class shall be terminated) at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Revolving Facility Borrowings of such Class made by such Lender effective for each day in such period and (ii) to each L/C Issuer, for its own account (x) three Business Days after the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments of all the Lenders under such Class shall be terminated as provided herein, a fronting fee in Dollars in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the termination of such Letter of Credit, computed at a rate equal to 0.125% per annum of the Dollar Equivalent of the daily stated amount of such Letter of Credit, plus (y) in connection with the issuance, amendment or transfer of any such Letter of Credit or any drawing thereunder, such L/C Issuer’s customary documentary and processing fees and charges (collectively, “L/C Issuer Fees”). All L/C Participation Fees and L/C Issuer Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

(c)    The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Administrative Agent, the agency fees set forth in the Fee Letter, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, at the times specified therein (the “Administrative Agent Fees”).

(d)    [Reserved].

(e)    All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that L/C Issuer Fees shall be paid directly to the applicable L/C Issuers. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.13.    Interest.

(a)    The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the ABR plus the Applicable Margin.

(b)    The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any Fees or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment,

112

at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.13 or (ii) in the case of any other overdue amount, 2.00% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.13; provided, that this paragraph (c) shall not apply to any Event of Default that has been waived by the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.08.

(d)    Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears (i) on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan, (ii) in the case of Revolving Facility Loans under any Revolving Facility, upon termination of the Revolving Facility Commitments with respect to such Revolving Facility and (iii) in the case of the Term Loans, on the applicable Term Facility Maturity Date; provided, that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.13 shall be payable on written demand, and (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment.

(e)    All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the ABR shall be computed at all times on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year); provided that interest computed on Sterling denominated Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable ABR, Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate or Eurocurrency Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.14.    Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a)    If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:

(i)    the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as applicable (including because the Eurocurrency Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period; provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time; or

(ii)    the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders or the Majority Lenders under the applicable Revolving Facility that the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or electronic means as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in the applicable currency shall be ineffective and in the case of any Borrowing denominated in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as an ABR Borrowing and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the Eurocurrency Rate with

113

a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower, so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such proposed amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders; provided that, with respect to any proposed amendment containing any SOFR-Based Rate, the Lenders shall be entitled to object only to the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment contained therein. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of Eurocurrency Rate with a Benchmark Replacement will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(c)    In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(d)    The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.14, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, with the consent of the Borrower and the Required Lenders as required pursuant to this Section 2.14.

(e)    Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

SECTION 2.15.    Increased Costs.

(a)    If any Change in Law shall:

(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate) or L/C Issuer;

(ii)    subject any Lender or L/C Issuer to any Tax with respect to any Loan Document or any Eurocurrency Loan made by it or any Letter of Credit or participation therein (other than Indemnified Taxes or Excluded Taxes); or

(iii)    impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

114

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

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

(c)    A certificate of a Lender or an L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d)    Promptly after any Lender or any L/C Issuer has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15, such Lender or L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.16.    Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (c) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to be the amount determined by such Lender (it being understood that the deemed amount shall not exceed the actual amount) to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue a Eurocurrency Loan, for the period that would have been the

115

Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in dollars of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurocurrency market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.17.    Taxes.

(a)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for any Taxes except as required by law; provided, that if any applicable Withholding Agent shall be required to withhold or deduct any Taxes in respect of any such payments, then (i) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all required withholding or deductions have been made (including withholding or deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the applicable Lender (or, in the case of a payment to the Administrative Agent for its own account, the Administrative Agent), receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deductions been made, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such withholding or deductions and (iii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b)    In addition, the Loan Parties shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c)    Each Loan Party shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, paid or payable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17), and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to such Loan Party by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf, on behalf of another Agent or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e)    Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent 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 the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two original copies of whichever of the following is applicable: (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto), claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party, (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto), (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate in a form reasonably satisfactory to the

116

Administrative Agent (a “Non-Bank Certificate”), and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto), (iv) to the extent the Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (e.g., where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or participating Lender), duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, together with appropriate forms and certificates described in Sections 2.17(e)(i) through (iii) and any additional Form W-8IMYs, withholding statements and other information as may be required by law (provided that, where a Foreign Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more of its direct or indirect partners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the Foreign Lender may provide the Non-Bank Certificate on behalf of such direct or indirect partners) or (v) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(f)    Each U.S. Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto) certifying that such U.S. Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding on or before the date such U.S. Lender becomes a party to this Agreement.

(g)    If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment.

(h)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.17, a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 2.17 that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(i)    Each Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any documentation previously provided pursuant to Sections 2.17(e), (f) or (g) obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so.

(j)    If the Borrower determines that a reasonable basis exists for contesting an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax for which a Loan Party has paid additional amounts or indemnification payments, each affected Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower as the Borrower may reasonably request in contesting such Tax; provided that nothing in this Section 2.17(j) shall obligate any Lender or the Administrative Agent to take any action that such person, in its sole judgment, determines may result in a material detriment to such person. The Borrower shall indemnify and hold each Lender and the Administrative Agent harmless against any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such person in connection with any request made by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.17(j). Any refund received from a successful contest shall be governed by Section 2.17(k).

117

(k)    If the Administrative Agent or a Lender has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which such Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined by the Administrative Agent or Lender in good faith, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that such Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, shall repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. In such event, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall, at the applicable Loan Party’s request, provide such Loan Party with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant Governmental Authority (provided that such Lender or the Administrative Agent may delete any information therein that it deems confidential). A Lender or the Administrative Agent shall claim any refund that it determines is available to it, unless it concludes in its sole discretion that it would be adversely affected by making such a claim. This Section 2.17(k) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems in good faith to be confidential) to the Loan Parties or any other person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will any Lender be required to pay any amount to a Loan Party the payment of which would place such Lender in a less favorable net after tax position than such Lender would have been in if the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid.

(l)    If any Administrative Agent is a “United States person” (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), it shall provide the Borrower, on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement, with two duly completed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Administrative Agent is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding. If any Administrative Agent is not a “United States person” (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement, it shall provide (1) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor form) with respect to payments to be received by it as a beneficial owner and (2) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor form), together with required accompanying documentation, with respect to payments to be received by it on behalf of the Lenders. Each Administrative Agent shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any documentation previously provided pursuant to this Section 2.17(l) obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower) or promptly notify the Borrower in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this Section 2.17(l) shall require any Administrative Agent to provide any documentation that it is not legally eligible to provide as a result of any Change in Law after the date hereof.

(m)    For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 2.17, include any L/C Issuer.
