On or after the Closing Date, Loans may be allocated between the Parent Borrower and the Co- Borrower by the Parent Borrower in its sole discretion.

53

(b) Each Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for the Obligations, regardless of which Borrower actually receives or is allocated the Loans hereunder or the amount of the Obligations received or the manner in which the Administrative Agent or any Lender accounts for the Obligations on its books and records. Each Borrower’s obligations with respect to Loans made or allocated to it, and each Borrower’s obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower hereunder, with respect to Loans made to and other Obligations owing by the Borrowers hereunder, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such obligations shall be primary obligations of each Borrower.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of, the Obligations, without first proceeding against the other Borrower or any other person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower waives all suretyship defenses and consents and agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.

(d) The Parent Borrower shall act under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as the agent, attorney-in-fact and legal representative of the Co-Borrower for all purposes, including receiving account statements, giving and receiving all notices and consents hereunder or under any other Loan Documents, taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants and certificates) and communications to such Co-Borrower from the Administrative Agent or any Lender. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, on any certificate, report, information or any notice or communication made or given by the Parent Borrower, whether in its own name or on behalf of the Co-Borrower, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to make any inquiry or request any confirmation from or on behalf of the Co-Borrower as to the binding effect on it of any such notice or request.

Section 1.06 Currency Equivalents. For purposes of determining compliance as of any date with Section 6.01 or 6.02 (other than for purposes of calculating financial ratios), amounts denominated in any currency other than Dollars shall be calculated as permitted by the second to last paragraph of Section 6.01. For purposes of determining compliance as of any date with any other Section in Article VI (other than for purposes of calculating financial ratios), amounts incurred, invested, loaned, advanced, acquired, Disposed of, sold, declared, paid, distributed or otherwise made or outstanding in any currency other than Dollars shall be calculated based on customary exchange rates in effect on the date of incurrence, Investment, loan, advance, acquisition, Disposition, sale, declaration, payment, distribution or other similar action was taken (or committed, at the option of the Borrowers) as determined in good faith by the Parent Borrower. If any limitation, threshold, ratio or basket is exceeded solely as a result of changes in currency exchange rates after the last time it was utilized, such limitation, threshold, ratio or basket will not be deemed to have been exceeded solely as a result of such fluctuations in currency exchange rates. No Default or Event of Default shall arise as a result of any limitation, threshold, ratio or basket set forth in Dollars in Article VI or clause (f) or (j) of Section 7.01 being exceeded solely as a result of changes in currency exchange rates. No Default or Event of Default shall arise as a result of the threshold set forth in Dollars in the definition of Material Indebtedness being exceed solely as a result of changes in currency exchange rates.

54

Section 1.08 Timing of Covenant Calculations. Where a calculation must be made in connection with an acquisition, disposition, investment, dividend or other action or event (each, a “Relevant Event”) in order to determine compliance with the covenants and other provisions of this Agreement, such calculation may be made, at the election of the Parent Borrower, either (i) at the time such Relevant Event is consummated or (ii) at the time the definitive agreements with respect to such Relevant Event are entered into.

Section 1.09 Permitted Liens. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, including any provision providing for or reference to the first priority or first ranking nature of the Liens of the Collateral Agent on the Collateral securing the Obligations being subject to any Liens or Permitted Liens, nothing herein shall be construed as or deemed to constitute an agreement by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to subordinate any such Liens or security held by the Collateral Agent on the Collateral to any Permitted Lien or an admission by the Collateral Agent or any such Secured Party that such Liens and any security held by the Collateral Agent on the Collateral are subordinated to any Permitted Lien.

ARTICLE II

The Credits

Section 2.01 Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein:

(a) each Initial Term Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Initial Term Loans in Dollars to the Borrowers on the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to its Initial Term Loan Commitment as of the Closing Date;

(b) each Lender having an Incremental Term Loan Commitment agrees, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement, to make Incremental Term Loans to the Borrowers, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed its Incremental Term Loan Commitment; and

(c) amounts of Loans borrowed under Section 2.01(a) or Section 2.01(b) that are repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.

Section 2.02 Loans and Borrowings.

(a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans under the same Facility and of the same Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments under the applicable Facility. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

(b) Subject to Section 2.12, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the Borrowers may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any ABR Loan or Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such Lender shall not be entitled to any amounts payable under Section 2.13 or 2.15 solely in respect of increased costs resulting from such exercise and existing at the time of such exercise.

55

(c) Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that no more than five (5) Eurocurrency Borrowings shall be outstanding under all Facilities at any time. Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrowers shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing of any Class if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Term Facility Maturity Date for such Class.

Section 2.03 Requests for Borrowings(a) . To request a Borrowing of Loans, the Borrowers shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request in writing in the form of a Borrowing Request signed by the applicable Borrower by hand delivery or electronic means (a) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., Local Time at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed Borrowing Date or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m. Local Time one (1) Business Day in advance of the proposed Borrowing Date (or, in each case, such shorter period as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may agree); provided that, (i) to request a Eurocurrency Borrowing or ABR Borrowing on the Closing Date, the Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request in writing (which may be by electronic means) not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, one Business Day prior to the Closing Date (or such later time as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may agree) and (ii) any such notice of an Incremental Term Borrowing may be given at such time as provided in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement. Each such written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) whether such Borrowing is to be a Borrowing of Initial Term Loans or Other Term Loans, as applicable;

(ii) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;

(iii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day (the “Borrowing Date”);

(iv) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing;

(v) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and

(vi) the location and number of the Parent Borrower’s or the Co-Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

56

Section 2.04 Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, Local Time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower, as the case may be, by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account or accounts designated by the applicable Borrower as specified in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with clause (a) of this Section 2.04 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of (A) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (B) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans at such time. If the Borrowers and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrowers the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.05 Interest Elections.

(a) Each Borrowing 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 Parent Borrower may elect 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 2.05. The Parent Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.05, the Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election in writing by hand delivery or electronic means an Interest Election Request signed by the Parent Borrower, by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Parent Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.

57

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

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

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

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

(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 Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. If less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing shall be in an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum and satisfy the limitations specified in Section 2.02(c) regarding the maximum number of Borrowings of the relevant Type.

(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 Parent 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 shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. 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 Parent Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.06 Termination of Commitments. On the Closing Date (after giving effect to the funding of the Initial Term Loans to be made on such date), the Initial Term Loan Commitments of each Lender as of the Closing Date will terminate.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of this Section 2.07 shall be prima facie evidence (absent manifest error) 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 Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided further, that if such accounts are inconsistent with the Register, the Register shall prevail.

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

(b) Prepayment of the Loans from:

(i) all Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 2.09(b) shall be allocated to the Class or Classes of Loans determined pursuant to Section 2.08(c), with the application thereof to reduce amounts due on the applicable Term Facility Maturity Date; provided that any Lender, at its option, may elect to decline any such prepayment of any Loan held by it if it shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent thereof by 5:00 p.m. Local Time at least three Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment (any such Lender, a “Declining Lender”) and on the date of any such prepayment, any amounts that would otherwise have been applied to prepay Loans owing to Declining Lenders (such amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) shall instead be retained by the Borrowers for application for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement, and

59

(ii) any optional prepayments of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.09(a) shall be applied as specified by or on behalf of the Parent Borrower in the applicable notice of prepayment; provided that any optional prepayment pursuant to 2.09(a) must be applied pro rata to all Loans of the same Class (but may be applied to any Class of Loans as specified by the Parent Borrower); provided, further, that in the event the Parent Borrower fails to specify the Loans (including, the Class) to which any such prepayment shall be applied, such prepayment shall be applied to prepay the Loans on a pro rata basis.

(c) Except as expressly provided in Section 2.19(b)(vi), any mandatory prepayment of Loans pursuant to Section 2.09(b) shall be applied so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated among the Initial Term Loans and the Other Term Loans, if any, pro rata based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Initial Term Loans and Other Term Loans, if any. Prior to any prepayment of any Loan under any Facility hereunder, the Parent Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings under the applicable Facility to be prepaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which may be by electronic means) of such selection not later than 2:00 p.m., Local Time, (i) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, at least five (5) Business Day before the scheduled date of such prepayment and (ii) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, at least five (5) Business Days before the scheduled date of such prepayment (or, in each case, such shorter period acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders); 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 Parent Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Each repayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing. All prepayments and repayments of Loans shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid to the extent required by Section 2.11(d) and shall be subject to Section 2.09(c).

(a) The Parent Borrower and the Co-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 (but subject to Section 2.09(c) and 2.14), 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, subject to prior notice in accordance with Section 2.08(c).

(b) The Borrowers shall apply all Net Proceeds, promptly upon receipt thereof (but in no event later than five Business Days after receipt thereof) to prepay Loans in accordance with clause (c) of Section 2.08. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers may use a portion of such Net Proceeds to prepay or repurchase any Other First Lien Debt to the extent such prepayment or repurchase is required by the agreement(s) governing such Other First Lien Debt, in each case in an amount not to exceed the product of (1) the amount of such Net Proceeds and (2) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of such Other First Lien Debt and (B) the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of such Other First Lien Debt and the outstanding principal amount of all Classes of Loans.

60

(c) In the event that all or any portion of the Initial Term Loans are repaid or prepaid as a result of any mandatory prepayments made with Net Proceeds of the type specified in clause (b) of the definition thereof (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not with Net Proceeds of the type specified in clause (a) of the definition thereof), or any voluntary prepayments or payments made following acceleration of the Loans (but excluding payments of the purchase price in connection with an assignment of the Loans made pursuant to Section 2.17(c)) such repayments or prepayments will include a premium equal to (A) the Applicable Make-Whole Amount, if such repayment or prepayment occurs prior to the First Call Date, (B) 5.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans so repaid or prepaid, if such repayment or prepayment occurs on or after the First Call Date but prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date, (C) 2.50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans so repaid or prepaid, if such repayment or prepayment occurs on or after the third anniversary of the Closing Date but prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date and (D) 0.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans repaid or prepaid, if such repayment or prepayment occurs on or after the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date (the foregoing premiums, the “Prepayment Premium”).

(d) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.09 to the contrary, (x) to the extent that any or all of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale by a non-Specified Subsidiary would otherwise be required to be applied pursuant to Section 2.09(b) but is prohibited, restricted or materially delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to fund such prepayments (as determined in good faith by the Borrowers and disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent), the portion of such Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to repay the Loans at the times provided in Section 2.09(b) (provided that the Parent Borrower causes such Subsidiary to use its commercially reasonable efforts to permit the transfer of the applicable funds), but only so long as the applicable local law prohibits, restricts or materially delays repatriation of such funds, and once such repatriation is permitted under applicable local law, such Net Proceeds will be promptly applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof other than any such taxes already taken into account by the definition of Net Proceeds) to the repayment of the Term Loans or Other First Lien Debt pursuant to Section 2.09(b), and (ii) to the extent that the Borrowers have determined in good faith that repatriation of any or all of such Net Proceeds that would otherwise be required to be applied pursuant to Section 2.09(b) would reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse tax consequence to the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or with respect to such Net Proceeds and disclosed in writing as such by the Parent Borrower to the Administrative Agent, the Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Loans at the times provided in Section 2.09(b) and (y) subject to the preceding clause (x), to the extent that any or all of the Net Proceeds of an Asset Sale by a Subsidiary other than a Wholly Owned Subsidiary would otherwise be required to be applied pursuant to Section 2.09(b) but such Subsidiary is restricted by the terms of its articles of incorporation or other constitutive or governing documents (including any partnership, limited liability company, operating or shareholders’ agreements) or by-laws (as in effect on the Closing Date or in the case of any newly acquired or formed Subsidiary, the date of such acquisition or formation, as the same may be amended from time to time for bona fide purposes and not to evade the requirements of this Section 2.09(d)) from distributing the proceeds to the Parent Borrower or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary thereof, the portion of such Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to repay the Loans at the times provided in Section 2.09(b), but only so long as the articles of incorporation or other constitutive or governing documents (including any partnership, limited liability company, operating or shareholders’ agreements) or by-laws of such Subsidiary restricts such Subsidiary from distributing the proceeds to the Parent Borrower or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary, and once such distribution is permitted, such Net Proceeds will be promptly applied (net of taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof other than any such taxes already taken into account by the definition of Net Proceeds) to the repayment of the Loans or Other First Lien Debt pursuant to Section 2.09(b).

61

Section 2.10 Fees.

(a) The Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower agree to pay to the Agents such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing (including pursuant to the Agent Fee Letter) in the amounts and at the times so specified (the “Agent Fees”). The Agent Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the applicable Agent. Once paid, none of such Agent Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances (except as expressly agreed between the Borrowers and the applicable Agent).

(b) The Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower agree to pay to the Initial Term Lenders such fees (including in the form of original issue discount) as shall have been separately agreed upon pursuant to the Initial Term Lender Fee Letter (the “Initial Term Lender Fees”). The Initial Term Lender Fees shall be paid on the Closing Date, in immediately available funds, to the Initial Term Lenders. Once paid, none of such Initial Term Lender Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances (except as expressly agreed between the Borrowers and the applicable Initial Term Lender).

Section 2.11 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 LIBO 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 Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding clauses of this Section 2.11 or (ii) in the case of any other overdue amount, 2.00% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in clause (a) of this Section 2.11; provided that this clause (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 and (ii) on the applicable Term Facility Maturity Date; provided that (A) interest accrued pursuant to clause (c) of this Section 2.11 shall be payable on demand, (B) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (C) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

62

(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 at times when the ABR is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable ABR, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.12 Alternate Rate of Interest.

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

(i) (x) the Required Lenders determine (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period and (y) the circumstances in Section 2.12(b)(i) do not apply; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate 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 (upon receipt of written notice from the Required Lenders) shall give notice thereof to the Parent Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or electronic means as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent (upon receipt of written notice from the Required Lenders) notifies the Parent Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued as on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto an ABR Borrowing, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing;

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Parent Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Parent Borrower) that the Parent Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(ii) the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Rate or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans, provided that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Required Lenders, that will continue to provide the LIBO Rate after such specific date (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or

63

(iii) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section 2.12, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace the LIBO Rate,

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) and the Parent Borrower may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing the LIBO Rate in accordance with this Section 2.12 with (x) one or more SOFR-Based Rates or (y) another alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated (the “Adjustment” and any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Parent Borrower. Such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Required Lenders.

If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Parent Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) the Eurocurrency Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the ABR. Upon receipt of such notice, the Parent Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein.

Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than 1.00% for purposes of this Agreement.

In connection with the implementation of a LIBOR Successor Rate, the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) will have the right to make LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such LIBOR Successor Conforming Changes to the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

Section 2.13 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

64

(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 LIBO Rate); or

(ii) subject any Lender or any other recipient of any payment to be made by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Taxes with respect to any Loan Document (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or (B) Excluded Taxes); or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender;

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 reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender 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 capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 2.13 shall be delivered to the Parent Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that any such certificate claiming amounts described in clause (x) or (y) of the definition of “Change in Law” shall, in addition, state the basis upon which such amount has been calculated and certify that such Lender’s demand for payment of such costs hereunder, and such method of allocation is not inconsistent with its treatment of other borrowers which, as a credit matter, are similarly situated to the Borrowers and which are subject to similar provisions. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Promptly after any Lender has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 2.13, such Lender shall notify the Parent Borrower thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.13 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Parent Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’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.

65

Section 2.14 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 conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow (other than due to the default of the relevant Lender), convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (d) 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 Parent Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, 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 that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the LIBO 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 Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest that 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 2.14 shall be delivered to the Parent Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

Section 2.15 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments made by or on behalf of a Loan Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes except as required by a Requirement of Law. If a Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any other applicable withholding agent shall be required by applicable Requirement of Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from such payments, then (i) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions or withholdings as are reasonably determined by the applicable withholding agent to be required by any applicable Requirement of Law, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority within the time allowed and in accordance with applicable Requirement of Law, and (iii) to the extent withholding or deduction is required to be made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions and withholdings have been made (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. Whenever any Indemnified Taxes are payable by a Loan Party, as promptly as possible thereafter, such Loan Party shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of a Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an official receipt (or other evidence acceptable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, acting reasonably) received by the Loan Party showing payment thereof. Without duplication, after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 2.15, the Parent Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Parent Borrower, as the case may be, a copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by applicable Requirement of Law to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be.

66

(b) The Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) The Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 15 Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.15), and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Parent Borrower by a Lender or by the Administrative Agent (as applicable) on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Each Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Taxes with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at such time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine (A) whether or not any payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to withholding of Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, any such withholding of Taxes in respect of any payments to be made to such Lender by any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.15(e)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender, and no Lender will be required to provide any information about its direct or indirect investors to the extent it is unable to do so (whether under a Requirement of Law, pursuant to any contract, or otherwise).

(e) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.15(d), such Lender or such Agent shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.15(e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

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

67

Each person that shall become a Participant pursuant to Section 9.04 or a Lender pursuant to Section 9.04 shall be required to provide all the forms and statements required pursuant to this Section 2.15(e) at such time that any such forms or statements are reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent; provided that a Participant shall furnish all such required forms and statements to the person from which the related participation shall have been purchased.

(f) If any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of an Indemnified Tax for which a payment has been made by a Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, which refund in the good faith judgment of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is attributable to such payment made by such Loan Party, then the Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall reimburse the Loan Party for such amount (net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and without interest other than any interest received thereon from the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund) as the Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, determines in its sole discretion to be the proportion of the refund as will leave it, after such reimbursement, in no better or worse position (taking into account expenses or any Taxes imposed on the refund) than it would have been in if the Indemnified Tax giving rise to such refund had not been imposed in the first instance; provided that the Loan Party, upon the request of the Lender or the Administrative Agent agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Lender or the Administrative Agent in the event the Lender or the Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. No Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be obliged to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan Party in connection with this clause (f) or any other provision of this Section 2.15.

(g) The agreements in this Section 2.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable under any Loan Document.

For purposes of this Section 2.15, the terms “applicable law” and “applicable Requirement of Law” include FATCA.

Section 2.16 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a) Unless otherwise specified, each of the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, premiums, or of amounts payable under Sections 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any defense, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated to the Parent Borrower by the Administrative Agent except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.10, 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.05 shall be made directly to the persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business

68

Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments made under the Loan Documents shall be made in Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Administrative Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Administrative Agent to make such payment.

(b) Subject to Section 7.02, if at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent from the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest, fees and premium (including the Prepayment Premium) then due from the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest, fees and premium (including the Prepayment Premium) then due from the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due from the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of, or interest on, any of its Loans of a given Class resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans of such Class and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase participations in the Loans of such Class of such other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by all such Lenders entitled thereto ratably in accordance with the principal amount of each such Lender’s respective Loans of such Class and accrued interest thereon; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this clause (c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant. The Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Parent Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

69

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.04 or 2.16(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

Section 2.17 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 or any event that gives rise to the operation of Section 2.18, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.15 or mitigate the applicability of Section 2.18, as applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13 or gives notice under Section 2.18, (ii) the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with Section 2.17(a) or (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Parent Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require any such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.13 or Section 2.15) and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Parent Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, to the extent consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, which consent, in each case, shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13, payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15 or a notice given under Section 2.18, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. Nothing in this Section 2.17 shall be deemed to prejudice any rights that the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower may have against any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender. No action by or consent of the removed Lender shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment the Borrowers, Administrative Agent, such removed Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.04; provided that if such removed Lender does not comply with Section 9.04 within one Business Day after the Parent Borrower’s request, compliance with Section 9.04 shall not be required to effect such assignment.

70

(c) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 9.08 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then the Borrowers shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) at its sole expense (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)(ii)(B)) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender to (and any such Non-Consenting Lender agrees that it shall, upon the Parent Borrower’s request) assign its Loans and its Commitments (or, at the Parent Borrower’s option, the Loans and Commitments under each Facility that is the subject of the proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination) hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (unless such assignee is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund); provided that: (a) all Obligations of the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, (b) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and (c) the replacement Lender shall grant its consent with respect to the applicable proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination. No action by or consent of the Non-Consenting Lender shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment the Borrowers, Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.04; provided that if such Non-Consenting Lender does not comply with Section 9.04 within one Business Day after the Parent Borrower’s request, compliance with Section 9.04 shall not be required to effect such assignment.

Section 2.18 Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted after the Closing Date that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make or maintain any Eurocurrency Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Parent Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligations of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Loans or to convert ABR Borrowings to Eurocurrency Borrowings shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Parent Borrower shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), convert all Eurocurrency Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted.

Section 2.19 Incremental Term Loan Commitments.

(a) The Parent Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, establish Incremental Term Loan Commitments in an amount not to exceed the Incremental Amount available at the time such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are established; provided that any existing Lender approached to provide any Incremental Term Loan Commitment may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Term Loan Commitment. Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments being established (which shall be in minimum increments of $5,000,000 and a

71

minimum amount of $10,000,000, or equal to the remaining Incremental Amount or, in each case, such lesser amount approved by the Administrative Agent), (ii) the date on which such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are requested to become effective and (iii) whether such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are to be (x) commitments to make term loans with terms identical to Initial Term Loans or (y) commitments to make term loans with pricing, maturity, amortization, participation in mandatory prepayments and/or other terms different from the Initial Term Loans (subject to clause (b) below) (“Other Term Loans”).

(b) The Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower and each Incremental Term Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of such Incremental Term Lender. Each Incremental Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of the applicable Incremental Term Loans; provided that:

(i) any commitments to make additional Initial Term Loans shall have the same terms as the Initial Term Loans;

(ii) the Other Term Loans incurred pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 2.19 shall rank pari passu or, at the option of the Parent Borrower, junior in right of security with the Liens on the Collateral securing the Initial Term Loans or be unsecured (provided that if such Other Term Loans rank junior in right of security with the Liens on the Collateral securing the Initial Term Loans, such Other Term Loans shall be subject to a Permitted Junior Intercreditor Agreement and, for the avoidance of doubt, if such Other Term Loans rank junior in right of security with the Liens on the Collateral securing the Initial Term Loans or are unsecured, such Other Term Loans shall not be subject to clause (v) below);

(iii) the final maturity date of any such Other Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Initial Term Facility Maturity Date;

(iv) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any such Other Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Initial Term Loans;

(v) with respect to any Other Term Loan incurred within twenty-four (24) months after the Closing Date that is a term loan and secured by Liens on the Collateral that rank pari passu in right of security with the Liens on the Collateral securing the Initial Term Loans, the All-in Yield of such Other Term Loans shall not exceed the All-in Yield applicable to the Initial Term Loans on the Closing Date, except that the All-in Yield in respect of any such Other Term Loans may exceed the All-in Yield in respect of such Initial Term Loans on the Closing Date by no more than 0.50%, or if it does so exceed such All-in Yield by more than 0.50% (such difference, the “Term Yield Differential”), then the Applicable Margin (or the “LIBOR floor” as provided in the following proviso) applicable to such Initial Term Loans shall be increased such that after giving effect to such increase, the Term Yield Differential shall not exceed 0.50% (the “MFN Protection”); provided that, to the extent any portion of the Term Yield Differential is attributable to a higher “LIBOR floor” being applicable to such Other Term Loans, the “LIBOR floor” applicable to the outstanding Applicable Term Loans shall be increased to an amount not to exceed the “LIBOR floor” applicable to such Other Term Loans prior to any increase in the Applicable Margin applicable to such Applicable Term Loans then outstanding; provided, further, that

72

to the extent any such Term Yield Differential consists of original issue discount or upfront fees, in lieu of any adjustment of the Applicable Margin, the Borrowers may satisfy their obligations, in whole or in part, under this clause (v) by paying the Initial Term Lenders a fee at the time of the closing of the Incremental Term Loan Facility in the amount necessary such that the All-in-Yield for the Initial Term Loans is 0.50% less than the All-in-Yield for such Other Term Loans;

(vi) such Other Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not a greater than pro rata basis) than the Initial Term Loans in any mandatory prepayment hereunder;

(vii) except as to pricing, amortization, maturity, participation in mandatory prepayments and ranking as to security (which, in each case, shall be subject to the other clauses of this proviso), be determined by the Parent Borrower and the Incremental Term Lenders in their sole discretion), shall have (x) substantially similar terms (and not more burdensome, taken as a whole) as the Initial Term Loans or (y) such other terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (acting on the instructions of the Required Lenders); provided that to the extent any Other Term Loans contain a financial maintenance covenant that is different or more restrictive than the Financial Covenant, then the Credit Agreement shall be amended to include such financial maintenance covenant for the benefit of the Term Lenders; and

(viii) (A) there shall be no obligor in respect of any Incremental Term Loan Commitments that is not a Loan Party and (B) no Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall be secured by any assets that do not constitute Collateral.

Each party hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments evidenced thereby as provided for in Section 9.08(e). Any amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document that is necessary to effect the provisions of this Section 2.19 and any such collateral and other documentation shall be deemed “Loan Documents” hereunder and may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower and furnished to the other parties hereto.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.19 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness the conditions set forth in clauses (j) and (k) of Section 4.01 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower; (ii) the Borrowers shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent such customary legal opinions, board resolutions, secretary’s certificates, officer’s certificates and other customary closing certificates and documentation as required by the relevant Incremental Assumption Agreement and, to the extent required by the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loan Commitment, consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date and such additional customary documents and filings (including amendments or supplements to the Security Documents) as the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) may reasonably request to assure that the Incremental Term Loans are secured by the Collateral ratably with (or, to the extent set forth in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement, junior to) the Initial Term Loans, and (iii) any fees and expenses owing in respect of such Incremental Term Loan Commitments and Incremental Term Loans to the Administrative Agent and the Incremental Term Lenders hereunder or under the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement shall have been paid; provided that, if the proceeds of any Incremental Term Facility are to be used to finance

73

a Permitted Business Acquisition or Investment in a Third Party pursuant to a definitive acquisition agreement, (A) at the option of the Parent Borrower, the determination of whether clause (i) of this Section 2.19(c) is satisfied shall be made solely at the time of the execution of the definitive acquisition agreement related to such Permitted Business Acquisition or Investment, and (B) the availability of Incremental Term Loan Commitments may be subject to customary “SunGard” provisions, as agreed by the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loan Commitments.

(d) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all Incremental Term Loans (other than Other Term Loans of a different Class), when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of the outstanding applicable Class of Loans on a pro rata basis. The Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower agree that Section 2.14 shall apply to any conversion of Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to effect the foregoing.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, including Section 2.16(c) (which provisions shall not be applicable to clauses (e) through (i) of this Section 2.19), pursuant to one or more offers made from time to time by the Borrowers to all Lenders of any Class of Loans, on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding Loans of such Class) and on the same terms (“Pro Rata Extension Offers”), the Borrowers are hereby permitted to consummate transactions with individual Lenders from time to time to extend the maturity date of such Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments of such Class and to otherwise modify the terms of such Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments of such Class pursuant to the terms of the relevant Pro Rata Extension Offer (including, without limitation, increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments and/or modifying the amortization schedule in respect of such Lender’s Loans). For the avoidance of doubt, the reference to “on the same terms” in the preceding sentence shall mean, in the case of an offer to the Lenders under any Class of Loans, that all of the Loans of such Class are offered to be extended for the same amount of time and that the interest rate changes and fees payable with respect to such extension are the same. Any such extension (an “Extension”) agreed to between the Borrowers and any such Lender (an “Extending Lender”) will be established under this Agreement by implementing an Incremental Term Loan for such Lender if such Lender is extending an existing Loan (such extended Loan, an “Extended Term Loan”). Each Pro Rata Extension Offer shall specify the date on which the Borrowers proposes that the Extended Term Loan shall be made, which shall be a date not earlier than five Business Days after the date on which notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period agreed to by the Administrative Agent(at the direction of the Required Lenders)).

(f) The Borrowers and each Extending Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Extended Term Loans of such Extending Lender. Each Incremental Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of the applicable Extended Term Loans; provided that (i) except as to interest rates, fees and any other pricing terms (which interest rates, fees and other pricing terms shall not be subject to the provisions set forth in Section 2.19(b)(vii)), and amortization, final maturity date and participation in prepayments and commitment reductions (which shall, subject to clauses (ii) and (iii) of this proviso, be determined by the Borrowers and set forth in the Pro Rata Extension Offer), the Extended Term Loans shall have (x) the same terms as an existing Class of Loans or (y) such other terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), (ii) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier

74

than the latest Term Facility Maturity Date in effect on the date of incurrence, (iii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Class of Loans to which such offer relates and (iv) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not a greater than pro rata basis) than the Initial Term Loans in any mandatory prepayment hereunder. Upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Term Loans evidenced thereby as provided for in Section 9.08(e). Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent with the Borrowers’ consent and furnished to the other parties hereto.

(g) Upon the effectiveness of any such Extension, the applicable Extending Lender’s Loan will be automatically designated an Extended Term Loan. For purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, if such Extending Lender is extending a Loan, such Extending Lender will be deemed to have an Incremental Term Loan having the terms of such Extended Term Loan.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, this Section 2.19), (i) the aggregate amount of Extended Term Loans will not be included in the calculation of the Incremental Amount, (ii) no Extended Term Loan is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment, (iii) any Extending Lender may extend all or any portion of its Loans pursuant to one or more Pro Rata Extension Offers (subject to applicable proration in the case of over participation) (including the extension of any Extended Term Loan), (iv) there shall be no condition to any Extension of any Loan or Commitment at any time or from time to time other than written notice to the Administrative Agent of such Extension and the terms of the Extended Term Loan implemented thereby, (v) all Extended Term Loans and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations of the relevant Loan Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by Liens on the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other Obligations relating to an existing Class of Loans of the relevant Loan Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (vi) there shall be no obligor in respect of any such Extended Term Loans that is not a Loan Party.

(i) Each Extension shall be consummated pursuant to procedures set forth in the associated Pro Rata Extension Offer; provided that the Borrowers shall cooperate with the Administrative Agent prior to making any Pro Rata Extension Offer to establish reasonable procedures with respect to mechanical provisions relating to such Extension, including, without limitation, timing, rounding and other adjustments.

(j) Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, (i) for the purpose of determining the number of outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowings upon the incurrence of any Incremental Term Loans, to the extent the last date of Interest Periods for multiple Eurocurrency Borrowings under any Facility fall on the same day, such Eurocurrency Borrowings shall be considered a single Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) the initial Interest Period with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing of Incremental Term Loans may, at the Parent Borrower’s option, be of a duration of a number of Business Days that is less than one month, and the Adjusted LIBO Rate with respect to such initial Interest Period shall be the same as the Adjusted LIBO Rate applicable to any then-outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowing as the Parent Borrower may direct, so long as the last day of such initial Interest Period is the same as the last day of the Interest Period with respect to such outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowing.

75

Section 2.20 Defaulting Lender.

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

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

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees, premiums or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, following an Event of Default or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.06 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder, second, as the Parent Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent, third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement, fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that, no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Parent Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

76

ARTICLE V

Affirmative Covenants

Each of the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower covenants and agrees with each Lender that, until the Termination Date, unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise consent in writing, it will, and will cause each of its respective Subsidiaries to:

Section 5.01 Existence; Conduct of Business; Business and Properties.

(a) Do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence, except, in the case of a Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower (other than the Co-Borrower), where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have

89

a Material Adverse Effect, and except as otherwise permitted under Section 6.05, and except for the liquidation or dissolution of Subsidiaries if the assets of such Subsidiaries to the extent they exceed estimated liabilities are acquired by either Borrower or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of either Borrower in such liquidation or dissolution; provided that Subsidiary Loan Parties may not be liquidated into Subsidiaries that are not Loan Parties (except as permitted under Section 6.05).

(b) Except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, cause to be done all things necessary to (i) lawfully obtain, preserve, renew, extend, maintain and keep in full force and effect all Permits, Intellectual Property, licenses and rights with respect thereto necessary to the normal conduct of its business, and (ii) at all times maintain, protect and preserve all property necessary to the normal conduct of its business and keep such property in good repair, working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted), from time to time make, or cause to be made, all needful and proper repairs, renewals, additions, improvements and replacements thereto necessary in order that the business carried on in connection therewith, if any, may be properly conducted at all times (in each case except as permitted by this Agreement).

Section 5.02 Insurance.

(a) Maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance (subject to customary deductibles and retentions) in such amounts and against such risks as are customarily maintained by similarly situated companies engaged in the same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations, cause the Collateral Agent to be listed as a co-loss payee on property and casualty policies with respect to Real Property located in any Specified Jurisdiction and as an additional insured on liability policies maintained by Loan Parties in Specified Jurisdictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiaries may self-insure with respect to such risks with respect to which companies of established reputation usually self-insure.

(b) Except as the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) may agree in its reasonable discretion, cause all such property and casualty insurance policies with respect to the Mortgaged Property to be endorsed or otherwise amended to include a “standard” or “New York” lender’s loss payable endorsement.

(c) If any portion of any Mortgaged Property located in the United States of America is at any time located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any successor agency) as a special flood hazard area (each a “Special Flood Hazard Area”) with respect to which flood insurance has been made available under the Flood Insurance Laws, (i) maintain, or cause to be maintained, with a financially sound and reputable insurer, flood insurance in an amount and otherwise sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to the Flood Insurance Laws and (ii) deliver to the Collateral Agent evidence of such compliance in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), including a copy of the flood insurance policy and a declaration page relating thereto.

(d) In connection with the covenants set forth in this Section 5.02, it is understood and agreed that:

90

(i) the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and their respective agents or employees shall not be liable for any loss or damage insured by the insurance policies required to be maintained under this Section 5.02, it being understood that the Loan Parties shall look solely to their insurance companies or any other parties other than the aforesaid parties for the recovery of such loss or damage. If, however, the insurance policies, as a matter of the internal policy of such insurer, do not provide waiver of subrogation rights against such parties, as required above, then the Parent Borrower, on behalf of itself and behalf of each of its Subsidiaries, hereby agrees, to the extent permitted by law, to waive, and further agrees to cause each of their Subsidiaries to waive, its right of recovery, if any, against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and their agents and employees;

(ii) the designation of any form, type or amount of insurance coverage by the Collateral Agent (including acting in the capacity as the Collateral Agent) (at the direction of the Required Lenders) under this Section 5.02 shall in no event be deemed a representation, warranty or advice by the Collateral Agent or the Lenders that such insurance is adequate for the purposes of the business of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries or the protection of their properties; and

(iii) the amount and type of insurance that the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries has in effect as of the Closing Date satisfies for all purposes the requirements of this Section 5.02.

Section 5.03 Taxes. Pay its obligations in respect of all Tax liabilities, assessments and governmental charges, before the same shall become delinquent or in default, except where (i) the amount or validity thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the Parent Borrower or a Subsidiary thereof has set aside on its books adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP or (ii) the failure to make payment could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.04 Financial Statements, Reports, etc. Furnish to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly furnish such information to the Lenders):

In addition, with respect to any Indebtedness that was permitted to be incurred hereunder on the date of such incurrence, any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness shall also be permitted hereunder after the date of such incurrence.

129

(m) the Cannabis Act is repealed and is not immediately replaced with substantially similar legislation;

(n) the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary is in default under any material Cannabis Authorization (after the expiry of any grace or cure periods relating thereto), or agrees to the surrender or termination of any material Cannabis Authorization prior to the expiry date expressly set out therein, or any material Cannabis Authorization is suspended, terminated or revoked, in each case unless such Cannabis Authorization is immediately replaced by a substantially similar Cannabis Authorization and, in each case, such event or condition, together with all other such events or conditions, if any, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

(o) any Health Canada Licence shall (i) expire or be revoked, terminated or cancelled, and in any such case not immediately replaced, renewed or reinstated on comparable terms or (ii) be modified in any materially adverse fashion and, in each case, such event or condition, together with all other such events or conditions, if any, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or

(p) the common Equity Interests of the Parent Borrower (or any Parent Entity) fail to remain listed on at least one of the Toronto Stock Exchange, NASDAQ or the New York Stock Exchange;

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) above), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, shall, by notice to the Parent Borrower, take any or all of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate forthwith the Commitments and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees, premiums (including the applicable Prepayment Premium as of such date (if any)) and all other liabilities of the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding; and in any event with respect to the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees, premiums (including the applicable Prepayment Premium (if any)) and all other liabilities of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event the Loans are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to the applicable Term Facility Maturity Date, in each case, in respect of any Event of Default (including, but not limited to, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default arising under Section 7.01(h) or (i) (including the acceleration of claims by operation of law)), the applicable Prepayment Premium as of the date such Loans are accelerated or become due (if any) will also be due and payable as though the Loans were voluntarily prepaid and shall constitute part of the Obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Lender’s lost profits as a result thereof. Any Prepayment Premium payable above shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Lender as the result of the early repayment and the Borrowers agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The applicable

130

Prepayment Premium (if any) shall also be payable in the event the Loans (and/or the Loan Documents) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure, strict foreclosure, in connection with any restructure, reorganization or compromise of the Obligations by the confirmation of a plan of reorganization or any other plan of compromise, restructure or arrangement in any insolvency proceeding, or by any other means. THE BORROWERS EXPRESSLY WAIVE (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THEY MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Borrowers expressly agree (to the fullest extent they may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Prepayment Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Prepayment Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between Lenders and the Borrowers giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Prepayment Premium; and (D) the Borrowers shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Borrowers expressly acknowledge that their agreement to pay the Prepayment Premium to Lenders as herein described is a material inducement to the Lenders to make the Loans. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to limit, restrict, or condition any of the Borrowers’ obligations or any of the Administrative Agent or Lender’s rights or remedies hereunder.

Section 7.02 Treatment of Certain Payments.

(a) Subject to the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, any amount received by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent from any Loan Party (or from proceeds of any Collateral) following any acceleration of the Obligations under this Agreement or any Event of Default with respect to the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower under Section 7.01(h) or (i), in each case that is continuing, shall be applied:

(i) first, ratably, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent from the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower,

(ii) second, towards payment of interest, fees and premiums (including the Prepayment Premium) then due from the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties,

(iii) third, towards payment of other Obligations then due from the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Obligations then due to such parties, and

(iv) last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower or as otherwise required by Requirements of Law.

(b) In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.04, any payments on account of the Obligations or proceeds of Collateral shall be received by any Lender in violation of the priorities set forth herein, such payments or proceeds of Collateral shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over to or delivered to the Administrative Agent for application in accordance with the terms hereof.

131

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any non-cash proceeds of Collateral (or non-cash amounts or assets distributed on account of a Lien in the Collateral or the proceeds thereon), such non-cash proceeds, amounts or assets shall be held by the Administrative Agent or any applicable Subagent as if they are Collateral and, at such time as such non-cash proceeds, amount or assets are monetized (at the direction of the Required Lenders) shall be applied in the order of application set forth in Section 7.02(a) above. The Administrative Agent or any applicable Subagent shall hold and take any action with respect to such noncash proceeds, amounts or assets as if they were Collateral and shall be subject to the terms set forth herein, in the Loan Documents and the Requirements of Law with respect thereto.

ARTICLE VIII

The Agents

Section 8.01 Appointment.

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Collateral Agent as the agent for such Lender and the other Secured Parties under the Security Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, in such capacities, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Lender hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver the letter delivered by the Parent Borrower to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date in respect of the Exempted Subsidiaries on its behalf and agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of such letter. In addition, to the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States of America, each of the Lenders hereby grants to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent any required powers of attorney to execute any Security Document governed by the laws of such jurisdiction on such Lender’s behalf. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Agents shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Agents.

Without limiting the aforesaid powers of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, for the purposes of holding any hypothec granted to the Attorney (as defined below) pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure the prompt payment and performance of any and all Obligations by any Loan Party, each of the Secured Parties hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent and, to the extent necessary, ratifies the appointment and authorization of the Collateral Agent, to act as the hypothecary representative of the creditors as contemplated under Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec (in such capacity, the “Attorney”), and to enter into, to take and to hold on their behalf, and for their benefit, any hypothec, and to exercise such powers and duties that are conferred upon the Attorney under any such hypothec. In such capacity, the Attorney shall: (a) have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise, except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof, all rights and remedies given to the Attorney pursuant to any such hypothec and applicable law, and (b) benefit from and be subject to all provisions hereof with respect to the Collateral Agent mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability or responsibility to and indemnification by the Secured

132

Parties and the Loan Parties. Any person who becomes a Secured Party shall be deemed to have consented to and confirmed the Attorney as the hypothecary representative of the Secured Parties and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Secured Party, all actions taken by the Attorney in such capacity. The substitution of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Article VIII also shall constitute the substitution of the Attorney.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Collateral Agent (and any Subagents appointed by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights or remedies thereunder at the direction of the Collateral Agent) shall be entitled to the benefits of this Article VIII (including, without limitation, Section 8.07) and Article IX (including, without limitation, Section 9.05) as though the Collateral Agent (and any such Subagents) were an “Agent” under the Loan Documents, as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

Section 8.02 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may execute any of their respective duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof)) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. Each Agent may also from time to time, when it deems it to be necessary or desirable, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents, collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Subagent”) with respect to all or any part of the Collateral; provided that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. Should any instrument in writing from the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower or any other Loan Party be required by any Subagent so appointed by an Agent to more fully or certainly vest in and confirm to such Subagent such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Parent Borrower shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by such Agent. If any Subagent, or successor thereto, shall become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Subagent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent until the appointment of a new Subagent. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent, attorney-in-fact or Subagent that it selects with reasonable care.

Section 8.03 Exculpatory Provisions. None of the Agents or their respective Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained

133

in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except those expressly set forth herein or therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (b) no Agent shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent herein. The Agents shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Parent Borrower or a Lender. No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law. No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. The permissive rights of the Agents to do things enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty and, with respect to such permissive rights, no Agent shall be answerable for other than its gross negligence or willful misconduct. Nothing in this Agreement shall require any Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder. No Agent shall incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of such Agent (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God or war, civil unrest, local or national disturbance or disaster, earthquakes, fires, floods, riots, epidemics, pandemics, any act of terrorism, interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, labor disputes, computer (hardware or software) or communications service, accidents, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or facsimile or other wire or communication facility). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be liable for the preparation, filing, recording, registration, re-filing, re-recording or maintenance of any financing statements or continuation statements, amendments, charges, mortgages or any other such instruments, agreements or other documents or be responsible for maintaining the security interests purported to be created as described herein (except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document) and such responsibility shall be solely that of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties.

134

Section 8.04 Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, resolution, direction, statement, instrument, opinion, report, order, judgment, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or conversation believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to any Borrowing, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless such Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to such Borrowing. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. Each Agent may deem and treat the Lender specified in the Register with respect to any amount owing hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with such Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

Section 8.05 Notice of Default. Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless such Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Parent Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

Section 8.06 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of, the Loan Parties and their subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness

135

of the Loan Parties and their subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

Section 8.07 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower to do so), in the amount of its pro rata share (based on outstanding Loans and unused Commitments (if any) hereunder determined at the time such indemnity is sought), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The failure of any Lender to reimburse any Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lenders to such Agent as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to reimburse such Agent for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse such Agent for such other Lender’s ratable share of such amount. The agreements in this Section 8.07 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 8.08 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

Section 8.09 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Parent Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Borrowers shall have the right (so long as no Event of Default under Section 7.01(b), (c), (h) or (i) shall have occurred and be continuing, in which case the Required Lenders shall have the sole right), subject to the reasonable consent of the Required Lenders, to appoint a successor which shall have an office in the United States of America, or an Affiliate of any such successor with an office in the United States of America, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective (except in the case of the Collateral Agent holding collateral security on behalf of such Secured Parties, the

136

retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as nominee until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed), and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Borrowers or the Required Lenders (as provided above) appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 8.09 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any entity into which the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust or agency business of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, shall be the successor of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder.

Section 8.10 Security Documents and Collateral Agent.

(a) The Lenders and the other Secured Parties authorize the Collateral Agent to release any Collateral or Guarantors in accordance with Section 9.18 or if approved, authorized or ratified in accordance with Section 9.08.

(b) The Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize and instruct the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to, without any further consent of any Lender or any other Secured Party, enter into (or acknowledge and consent to) any Permitted Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, any Permitted Junior Intercreditor Agreement or, with the consent of the Required Lenders, any other intercreditor agreement with the collateral agent or other representatives of the holders of Indebtedness that is to be secured by a Lien on the Collateral that is not prohibited (including with respect to priority) under this Agreement and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations to the provisions thereof (any of the foregoing, an “Intercreditor Agreement”). The Lenders and the other Secured Parties irrevocably agree that (x) the Collateral Agent may rely exclusively on a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower as to whether any such other Liens are not prohibited and (y) any Intercreditor Agreement entered into by the Collateral Agent shall be binding on the Secured Parties, and each Lender and the other Secured Parties hereby agrees that it will take no actions contrary to the provisions of, if entered into and if applicable, any Intercreditor Agreement. Furthermore, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (i) to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by clauses (a), (c), (i), (j), (p), (u), (aa), (cc), (ff) or (mm) of Section 6.02 (if the Liens thereunder are of a type that is contemplated by any of the foregoing clauses) in each case to the extent the contract or agreement pursuant to which such Lien is granted prohibits any other Liens on such property or (ii) that is or becomes Excluded Property; and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall do so upon request of the Borrowers; provided that prior to any such request, the Parent Borrower shall have in each case delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower certifying (x) that such Lien is permitted under this Agreement, (y) in the case of a request pursuant to clause (i) of this sentence, that the contract or agreement pursuant to which such Lien is granted prohibits any other Lien on such property and (z) in the case of a request pursuant to clause (ii) of this sentence, that (A) such property is or has become Excluded Property and (B) if such property has become Excluded Property as a result of a contractual restriction, such restriction does not violate Section 6.09(c).

Section 8.11 Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guarantees.

(a) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, (i) the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Parent Borrower or the Co-Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (A) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of any or all of the Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and any Subagents allowed in such judicial proceeding, and (B) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and (ii) any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

(b) Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (a) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guarantee, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent, and (b) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, either of the Agents or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other Disposition. In connection with any such bid (i) each Agent (and their respective designees) shall be authorized to (x) form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a bid and (y) adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by any Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or Equity Interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote of the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 9.08 of this Agreement) and (ii) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of debt credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Lenders pro rata and the Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of the Obligations that had been assigned to the acquisition vehicle shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action.

138

Section 8.12 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable Requirement of Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States of America or any other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by any applicable Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any applicable Loan Party to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including penalties, fines, additions to Tax and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.12.

(D) the Assignee shall not be the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries except in accordance with Section 9.04(g).

For the purposes of this Section 9.04, (“Approved Fund”) shall mean any person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an

142

Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

The list of Disqualified Lenders will remain on file with the Administrative Agent and will not be subject to further disclosure by the Administrative Agent without the Parent Borrower’s prior written consent; provided that the Administrative Agent may provide the list of Disqualified Lenders to any Lender upon request by such Lender.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to subclause (v) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.05 (subject to the limitations and requirements of those Sections)).

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of (and interest amounts on) the Loans owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower and the Lenders, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice; provided that no Lender shall, in such capacity, have access to, or be otherwise permitted to review, any information in the Register other than information with respect to such Lender.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and all documentation and other information with respect to the Assignee that is required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in clause (b) of this Section 9.04, if applicable, and any written consent to such assignment required by clause (b) of this Section 9.04 and any applicable

143

tax forms, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and promptly record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment, whether or not evidenced by a promissory note, shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless and until it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this subclause (v).

(c)

(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations in Loans and Commitments to one or more banks or other entities other than (I) any Disqualified Lender, (II) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing persons described in this clause (II) or (III) a natural person or any investment vehicles established primarily for the benefit of, or operated by, one or more natural persons (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (x) such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that both (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (vi) of the first proviso to Section 9.08(b) and (2) directly adversely affects such Participant (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not any waiver of any Default or Event of Default) and (y) no other agreement with respect to amendment, modification or waiver may exist between such Lender and such Participant. Subject to clause (c)(iii) of this Section 9.04, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 (subject to the limitations and requirements of those Sections and Section 2.17) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 9.04. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant shall be subject to Section 2.16(c) as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Loan Party and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Participant or prospective Participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any participation made, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender.

(ii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of (and interest amounts on) each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be

144

conclusive absent manifest error, and each party hereto shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Without limitation of the requirements of Section 9.04(c), no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of a Participant Register to any person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or other Obligations under any Loan Document), except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other Obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or is otherwise required by applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(iii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Parent Borrower’s prior written consent, which consent shall state that it is being given pursuant to this Section 9.04(c)(iii); provided that each potential Participant shall provide such information as is reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower in order for the Parent Borrower to determine whether to provide its consent.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank and in the case of any Lender that is an Approved Fund, any pledge or assignment to any holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Lender, including to any trustee for, or any other representative of, such holders, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e) The Parent Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in clause (d) above.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Each of the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto and each Loan Party for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance.

145

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, including Section 2.16(c) (which provisions shall not be applicable to clauses (g) or (h) of this Section 9.04), any of the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries may purchase by way of assignment and become an Assignee with respect to Loans at any time and from time to time from Lenders in accordance with Section 9.04(b) hereof through “Dutch Auctions” open to all Lenders of the applicable Class on a pro rata basis in accordance with procedures of the type set forth on Exhibit K (each, a “Permitted Loan Purchase”); provided that, in respect of any Permitted Loan Purchase, (A) upon consummation of any such Permitted Loan Purchase, the Loans purchased pursuant thereto shall be deemed to be automatically and immediately cancelled and extinguished in accordance with Section 9.04(h), (B) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from such Permitted Loan Purchase, (C) in connection with any such Permitted Loan Purchase, any of the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries and such Lender that is the assignor (an “Assignor”) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Permitted Loan Purchase Assignment and Acceptance (and for the avoidance of doubt, (x) shall make the representations and warranties set forth in the Permitted Loan Purchase Assignment and Acceptance and (y) shall not be required to execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Section 9.04(b)(ii)(B)) and shall otherwise comply with the conditions to assignments under this Section 9.04.

(h) Each Permitted Loan Purchase shall, for purposes of this Agreement be deemed to be an automatic and immediate cancellation and extinguishment of such Loans (including all accrued and unpaid interest on such Loans) and/or Term Loan Commitments and the Parent Borrower shall, upon consummation of any Permitted Loan Purchase, notify the Administrative Agent that the Register be updated to record such event as if it were a prepayment of such Loans.

(i) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(j) If any assignment is made to any Disqualified Lender without the Parent Borrower’s prior consent in violation of Section 9.04(b) above the Parent Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Lender and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate any Term Loan Commitment of such Disqualified Lender, (B) prepay any Loan of such Disqualified Lender by paying the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Lender paid to acquire such Loans plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and/or (C) require such Disqualified Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 9.04), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement and related Loan Documents to an Assignee that shall assume such obligations at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and

146

(y) the amount that such Disqualified Lender paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder and other the other Loan Documents; provided that (i) the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in this Section 9.04, and (ii) such assignment does not conflict with applicable laws.

Section 9.05 Expenses; Indemnity.

(a) Each Borrower agrees to pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including Other Taxes) incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement and any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof, including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one primary counsel for the Agents and, if necessary, the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one regulatory counsel and one local counsel to the Agents in each appropriate jurisdiction, and one primary counsel for the Lenders, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one regulatory counsel and one local counsel to the Lenders, taken as a whole, in each appropriate jurisdiction, and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including Other Taxes) incurred by the Agents or any Lender in connection with the enforcement of their rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including the fees, charges and disbursements of a single primary counsel for the Agents, and, if necessary, a single regulatory and local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for the Agents, and a single primary counsel for the Lenders, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, a single regulatory and local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for the Lenders, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where such person affected by such conflict informs the Parent Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected person).

(b) Each Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Lender, each of their respective Affiliates, successors and assignors, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and members (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements (excluding the allocated costs of in house counsel and limited to not more than one counsel for all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, a single regulatory counsel and a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs the Parent Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected Indemnitee)), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto and thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans, (iii) any violation of or liability under Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits to the extent relating in any way to the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary, (iv) any actual or alleged presence, Release or threatened Release of or exposure to Hazardous Materials at, under, on, from or to any property currently or formerly owned, leased or operated by the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or

147

(v) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Parent Borrower or any of their subsidiaries or Affiliates; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties, (y) other than with respect to the Agents, arose from a material breach of such Indemnitee’s or any of its Related Parties’ obligations under any Loan Document (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment) or (z) arose from any claim, actions, suits, inquiries, litigation, investigation or proceeding that does not involve an act or omission of the Parent Borrower or any of its Affiliates and is brought by an Indemnitee against another Indemnitee (other than any claim, actions, suits, inquiries, litigation, investigation or proceeding against any Agent in its capacity as such). None of the Indemnitees (or any of their respective affiliates) shall be responsible or liable to the Parent Borrower or any of its subsidiaries, Affiliates or shareholders or any other person or entity for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, which may be alleged as a result of the Facilities or the Transactions. The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable within 30 days after written demand therefor accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or other amount requested.

(c) Except as expressly provided in Section 9.05(a) with respect to Other Taxes, which shall not be duplicative with any amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.15, this Section 9.05 shall not apply to any Taxes (other than Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses resulting from a non-Tax claim), which shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.15 and, to the extent set forth therein, Section 2.13.

(d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that the foregoing shall not affect each Borrower’s indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 9.05(b). No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(e) The agreements in this Section 9.05 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

148

Section 9.06 Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary against any of and all the obligations of the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although the obligations may be unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.20 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender may have.

Section 9.07 Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSES OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT (OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY PRINCIPLE OF CONFLICTS OF LAW THAT COULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF ANY OTHER LAW.

Section 9.08 Waivers; Amendment.

(a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by clause (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower or any other Loan Party in any case shall entitle such person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (x) as provided in Section 1.02(a), Section 2.12, Section 2.19, Section 5.09(g) or 6.10, (y) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders and (z) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each Loan Party thereto (or that has signed an acknowledgment thereto) and the Administrative Agent and consented to by the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall:

(i) decrease or forgive the principal amount of, or extend the final maturity of, or decrease the rate of interest on, any Loan without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, such consent of such Lender directly adversely affected thereby shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modification),

149

(ii) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, such consent of such Lender shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modification); provided that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default, mandatory prepayments or of a mandatory reduction in the aggregate Commitments shall not constitute an increase or extension of the Commitments of any Lender for purposes of this clause (ii),

(iii) extend any date on which payment of interest on any Loan or any Fees is due, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, such consent of such Lender directly adversely affected thereby shall be the only consent required hereunder to make sure modification),

(iv) amend the provisions of Section 7.02 or Section 2.16(c) with respect to the pro rata application of payments required thereby (or add or change any other provision of this Agreement that has the effect of making any such alteration to such provisions) in a manner that by its terms modifies the application of such payments required thereby to be on a less than pro rata basis, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, such consent of such Lender directly adversely affected thereby shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modification),

(v) amend or modify the provisions of this Section 9.08 or the definition of the terms “Required Lenders,” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby, in each case except, for the avoidance of doubt, as otherwise provided in Section 9.08(d) and (e) (it being understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Loans and Commitments are included on the Closing Date),

(vi) except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Loan Parties from their respective Guarantees under the Guarantee Agreement (in each case, other than in connection with any release of the relevant Guarantees or Collateral expressly permitted by the Loan Documents), without the prior written consent of each Lender other than a Defaulting Lender, or

(vii) effect any waiver, amendment or modification that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments or collateral of Lenders participating in any Facility differently from those of Lenders participating in another Facility, without the consent of the Required Lenders participating in the adversely affected Facility except, for the avoidance of doubt, as otherwise provided in Section 9.08(d) and (e) (it being agreed that the Required Lenders may waive, in whole or in part, any prepayment or Commitment reduction required by Section 2.09 so long as the application of any prepayment or Commitment reduction still required to be made is not changed),

150

provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights, duties, benefits, privileges, protections, indemnities or immunities of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent acting as such at the effective date of such agreement, as applicable. Each Lender shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section 9.08 and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section 9.08 shall bind any Assignee of such Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have the right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be affected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

(c) Without the consent of any Lender, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may (in their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to include holders of Other First Liens in the benefit of the Security Documents in connection with the incurrence of any Other First Lien Debt, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law or this Agreement or in each case to otherwise enhance the rights or benefits of any Lender under any Loan Document.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (a) to permit additional extensions of credit to be outstanding hereunder from time to time and the accrued interest and fees and other obligations in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Loans and the accrued interest and fees and other obligations in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the holders of such extensions of credit in any determination of the requisite lenders required hereunder, including Required Lenders.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, technical and conforming modifications to the Loan Documents may be made with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (but without the consent of any Lender) to the extent necessary (A) to integrate any Incremental Term Loan Commitments in a manner consistent with Section 2.19, including, with respect to Other Term Loans, as may be necessary to establish such Incremental Term Loan Commitments as a separate Class or tranche from the existing Initial Term Loan Commitments, (B) to effect an alternate interest rate in a manner consistent with Section 2.12, (C) to integrate any Other First Lien Debt or (D) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency.

(f) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may take any and all action as may be necessary to ensure that all Loans established pursuant to Section 2.19 after the Closing Date that will be included in an existing Class of Loans outstanding on such date (an “Applicable Date”), when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Loans of such Class (the “Existing Class Loans”), on a pro rata basis, and/or to ensure

151

that, immediately after giving effect to such new Loans (the “New Class Loans” and, together with the Existing Class Loans, the “Class Loans”), each Lender holding Class Loans will be deemed to hold its Pro Rata Share of each Class Loan on the Applicable Date (but without changing the amount of any such Lender’s Loans), and each such Lender shall be deemed to have effectuated such assignments as shall be required to ensure the foregoing. The “Pro Rata Share” of any Lender on the Applicable Date is the ratio of (1) the sum of such Lender’s Existing Class Loans immediately prior to the Applicable Date plus the amount of New Class Loans made by such Lender on the Applicable Date over (2) the aggregate principal amount of all Class Loans on the Applicable Date.

Section 9.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the applicable interest rate, together with all fees and charges that are treated as interest under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), as provided for herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, or otherwise contracted for, charged, received, taken or reserved by any Lender, shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by such Lender in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable hereunder, together with all Charges payable to such Lender, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate; provided that such excess amount shall be paid to such Lender on subsequent payment dates to the extent not exceeding the legal limitation. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Loan Documents would obligate a Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party organized under the laws of Canada or a province or territory thereof to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by applicable law or would result in receipt by such Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provisions, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by applicable law or so result in a receipt by such Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows: firstly by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to such Lender and thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to such Lender which would constitute “interest” for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

Section 9.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the agreements regarding certain Fees referred to herein constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among or representations from the parties or their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent Fee Letter and the Initial Term Lender Fee Letter shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and remain in full force and effect. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto and thereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

Section 9.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

152

Section 9.12 Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

Section 9.13 Counterparts.

(a) This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 9.03. Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile transmission (or other electronic transmission pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed original.

(b) The words “execution,” “execute”, “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation Assignment and Acceptances, amendments, Borrowing Requests, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are under no obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party hereto agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent each retain the right to bring proceedings against any Loan Party in the courts of any other jurisdiction solely in connection with the exercise of any rights under any Security Document or as otherwise provided in the Guarantee Agreement.

(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (i) all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (ii) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as solely containing information that is either (A) publicly available information or (B) not material (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided that such Borrower Materials shall be treated as set forth in Section 9.16, to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute information subject to the terms thereof), (iii) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor;” and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.” ANY PLATFORM PROVIDED IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS.

(a) The Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably agree that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral shall be automatically released: (i) in full upon the occurrence of the Termination Date as set forth in Section 9.18(d) below; (ii) upon the Disposition of such Collateral by any Loan Party to a person that is not (and is not required to become) a Loan Party in a transaction not prohibited by this Agreement (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any disposal consisting of an operating lease or license, the underlying property retained by such Loan Party will not be so released, (iii) to the extent that such Collateral comprises property leased to a Loan Party, upon termination or expiration of such lease (and the Collateral Agent may rely

155

conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iv) if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other percentage of the Lenders whose consent may be required in accordance with Section 9.08), (v) to the extent that the property constituting such Collateral is owned by any Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee in accordance with the Guarantee Agreement or clause (b) below (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (vi) as provided in Section 8.10 (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), and (vii) as required by the Collateral Agent to effect any Disposition of Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents. Any such release (other than pursuant to clause (i) above) shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those being released) upon (or obligations (other than those being released) of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any Disposition, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral except to the extent otherwise released in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents.

(b) In addition, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably agree that a Subsidiary Loan Party shall be automatically released from its Guarantee under the Guarantee Agreement upon consummation of any transaction not prohibited hereunder resulting in such Subsidiary ceasing to constitute a Subsidiary Loan Party or otherwise becoming an Excluded Subsidiary (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry); provided that in no event shall any Guarantor cease to constitute a Guarantor solely as a result of (i) such Guarantor ceasing to constitute a Wholly Owned Subsidiary after the Closing Date (unless either (I) pursuant to a disposition permitted hereunder for a bona fide business purpose to an unaffiliated Person; provided that a bona fide business purpose shall be conclusively established if 10% or more of the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary are transferred to an unaffiliated Person, or (y) for a bona fide business purpose on terms that are not less favorable to the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries than arms’-length terms (each, as determined in good faith by the Parent Borrower) in connection with which such Person ceases to constitute a “Subsidiary” or (II) such Person otherwise constitutes an Excluded Subsidiary (other than solely on account of constituting a non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary) or (ii) such Guarantor ceasing to be organized in a Specified Jurisdiction except pursuant to a transaction permitted under Section 6.05(b).

(c) The Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to execute and deliver any instruments, documents, and agreements necessary or desirable to evidence and confirm the release of any Guarantor or Collateral pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.18 and to return to the Borrowers all possessory collateral (including share certificates (if any)) held by it in respect of any Collateral so released, all without the further consent or joinder of any Lender or any other Secured Party. Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan Document relating to any such Collateral or Guarantor shall no longer be deemed to be made. In connection with any release hereunder, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall promptly (and the Secured Parties hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably requested by either Borrower and at the Borrowers’ expense in connection with the release of any Liens created by any Loan Document in respect of such Subsidiary, property or asset; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower containing such certifications as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.

156

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, on the Termination Date, all Liens granted to the Collateral Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral under the Loan Documents and all obligations of the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiary Loan Parties under any Loan Documents (other than such obligations that expressly survive the Termination Date pursuant to the terms hereof) shall, in each case, be automatically released and, upon request of the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Secured Party) take such actions as shall be required to evidence the release of its security interest in all Collateral granted to it pursuant to the Loan Documents (including returning to the Borrowers all possessory collateral (including share certificates (if any)) held by it pursuant to the Loan Documents in respect of any Collateral so released), and to evidence the release of all obligations under any Loan Document (other than such obligations that expressly survive the Termination Date pursuant to the terms hereof), whether or not on the date of such release there may be any contingent indemnification obligations or expense reimbursement claims not then due; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower containing such certifications as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. Any such release of obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Each Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (and their respective representatives) in connection with taking such actions to release security interests in all Collateral and all obligations under the Loan Documents as contemplated by this Section 9.18(d).

Section 9.19 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Parent Borrower and the Co-Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers in the Agreement Currency, each Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Parent Borrower (or to any other person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

Section 9.20 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

157

Section 9.21 Affiliate Lenders.

(a) Each Affiliate Lender (it being understood that Debt Fund Affiliate Lenders and Affiliate Lenders may be Lenders hereunder in accordance with Section 9.04, subject in the case of Affiliate Lenders, to this Section 9.21), in connection with any (i) consent (or decision not to consent) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document, (ii) other action on any matter related to any Loan Document, (iii) direction to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document or (iv) any plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, agrees that, except with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action (1) described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the first proviso of Section 9.08(b) or (2) that adversely affects such Affiliate Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) in a disproportionately adverse manner as compared to other Lenders, such Affiliate Lender shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in such proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Affiliate Lenders. Each Affiliate Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Affiliate Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Affiliate Lender and in the name of such Affiliate Lender, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this clause (a).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Affiliate Lender shall have any right to (1) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Borrowers are not then present, (2) receive any information or material prepared by Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to the Borrowers or their representatives, (3) make or bring (or participate in, other than as a passive participant in or recipient of its pro rata benefits of) any claim, in its capacity as a Lender, against Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender with respect to any duties or obligations or alleged duties or obligations of such Agent or any other such Lender under the Loan Documents or (4) purchase any Loan and/or Term Loan Commitments if, immediately after giving effect to such purchase, Affiliate Lenders in the aggregate would own Loans and/or Term Loan Commitments with an aggregate principal amount in excess of 25% of the aggregate principal amount of all Loans and Term Loan Commitments then outstanding. It shall be a condition precedent to each assignment to an Affiliate Lender that such Affiliate Lender shall have represented to the assigning Lender in the applicable Assignment and Acceptance, and notified the Administrative Agent, that it is (or will be, following the consummation of such assignment) an Affiliate Lender and that the aggregate amount of Loans held by it giving effect to such assignments shall not exceed the amount permitted by clause (4) of the preceding sentence.

(c) The portion of any Loans and/or Term Loan Commitments held by Debt Fund Affiliate Lenders in the aggregate in excess of 49.9% of the outstanding Loans and/or Term Loan Commitments shall be disregarded in determining Required Lenders at any time.

158

Section 9.22 Agency of the Parent Borrower for the Loan Parties. Each of the Subsidiary Loan Parties hereby appoints the Parent Borrower as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the giving and receipt of notices and the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein and therein and all modifications hereto and thereto.

Section 9.23 Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

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

Section 9.24 Interest Act (Canada). For purposes of disclosure pursuant to the Interest Act (Canada), the annual rates of interest or fees to which the rates of interest or fees provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (and stated herein or therein, as applicable, to be computed on the basis of a 360 day year or any other period of time less than a calendar year) are equivalent are the rates so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the applicable calendar year and divided by 360 or the actual number of days in such other period of time, respectively.

Each other Authorized Representatives agrees to deliver reasonably promptly to the Applicable Authorized Representative any Common Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral in its possession, and pending such delivery to the Applicable Authorized Representative, each other Authorized Representative agrees to hold any Common Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral, from time to time in its possession, as gratuitous bailee and/or gratuitous agent for the benefit of each other First-Priority Secured Party and any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First-Priority Collateral Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.09.

Whenever the Applicable Authorized Representative or any Authorized Representative shall be required, in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder, to determine the existence or amount of any First-Priority Obligations of any Series, or the Common Collateral subject to any Lien securing the First-Priority Obligations of any Series, it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by each other Authorized Representative and shall be entitled to make such determination on the basis of the information so furnished; provided that, if an Authorized Representative shall fail or refuse reasonably promptly to provide the requested information, the requesting Applicable Authorized Representative or Authorized Representative shall be entitled to make any such determination or not make any determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by reliance upon a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower.

16

The Applicable Authorized Representative and each other Authorized Representative may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction) and shall have no liability to any Grantor, any First-Priority Secured Party or any other person as a result of such determination.

ARTICLE IV

The Collateral Agent

SECTION 4.01 Appointment and Authority.

(a) Each of the First-Priority Secured Parties hereby irrevocably appoints Wilmington Trust, National Association, to act on its behalf as Applicable Authorized Representative hereunder and under each of the other First-Priority Collateral Documents and authorizes the Applicable Authorized Representative to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, including for purposes of enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any Grantor to secure any of the First-Priority Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In connection therewith, the Applicable Authorized Representative and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 4.05 for purposes of enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under any of the First-Priority Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IV and Section 8.07 and Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement (or, in each case, the Equivalent Provision thereof) and the equivalent provision of any Other First-Priority Agreement (as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “Collateral Agent” under the First-Priority Collateral Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

(b) Each Non-Controlling Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the Applicable Authorized Representative shall be entitled, for the benefit of the First-Priority Secured Parties, to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or deal with any Common Collateral as provided herein and in the First-Priority Collateral Documents, without regard to any rights to which Non-Controlling Secured Parties would otherwise be entitled as a result of holding any First-Priority Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, each Non-Controlling Secured Party agrees that none of the Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or any other First-Priority Secured Party shall have any duty or obligation first to marshal or realize upon any type of Common Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any of the First-Priority Obligations), or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of such Common Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any First-Priority Obligations), in any manner that would maximize the return to the Non-Controlling Secured Parties, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by the Non-Controlling Secured Parties from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. Each of the First-Priority Secured Parties waives any claim it may now or hereafter have against the Applicable Authorized Representative or the Authorized Representative of any other Series of First-Priority Obligations or any other First-Priority Secured Party of any other Series arising out of (i) any actions which the Collateral Agent, any Authorized Representative or

17

any First-Priority Secured Party takes or omits to take (including, actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the First-Priority Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in accordance with the First-Priority Collateral Documents or any other agreement related thereto or to the collection of the First-Priority Obligations or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for the First-Priority Obligations, (ii) any election by any Applicable Authorized Representative or any holders of First-Priority Obligations, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision of any other applicable Bankruptcy Law) or (iii) subject to Section 2.05 of this Agreement, any borrowing or grant of a security interest or administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision of any other applicable Bankruptcy Law) by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, as debtor-in-possession. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Applicable Authorized Representative shall not accept any Common Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of any First-Priority Obligations pursuant to Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, without the consent of each Authorized Representative representing holders of First-Priority Obligations for whom such Collateral constitutes Common Collateral.

SECTION 4.02 Rights as a First-Priority Secured Party. The Person serving as the Applicable Authorized Representative hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a First-Priority Secured Party under any Series of First-Priority Obligations that it holds as any other First-Priority Secured Party of such Series and may exercise the same as though it were not the Applicable Authorized Representative and the term “First-Priority Secured Party” or “First-Priority Secured Parties” or (as applicable) “Credit Agreement Secured Party”, “Credit Agreement Secured Parties”, “Initial Other First-Priority Secured Party”, “Initial Other First-Priority Secured Parties”, “Other First-Priority Secured Party” or “Other First-Priority Secured Parties” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Applicable Authorized Representative hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Collateral Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to any other First-Priority Secured Party. SECTION 4.03 Exculpatory Provisions.

(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other First-Priority Collateral Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Applicable Authorized Representative or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;

(iv) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Applicable Authorized Representative or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or (iii) in reliance on a certificate of an authorized officer of the Parent Borrower stating that such action is not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(v) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other First-Priority Collateral Document or Secured Credit Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other First-Priority Collateral Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the First-Priority Collateral Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral for any Series of First-Priority Obligations, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in any First-Priority Collateral Document (to the extent applicable) or Secured Credit Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Applicable Authorized Representative;

(vi) shall not have any fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of any kind or nature under any Other First-Priority Agreement (but shall be entitled to all protections provided to the Applicable Authorized Representative therein);

(vii) with respect to the Credit Agreement, any Other First-Priority Agreement or any First-Priority Collateral Document, may conclusively assume that the Grantors have complied with all of their obligations thereunder unless advised in writing by the Authorized Representative thereunder to the contrary specifically setting forth the alleged violation; and

19

(viii) may conclusively rely on any certificate of an officer of the Parent Borrower provided pursuant to Section 2.04(d) hereof.

(b) Each First-Priority Secured Party acknowledges that, in addition to acting as the initial Applicable Authorized Representative, Wilmington Trust, National Association also serves as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under the Credit Agreement and each First-Priority Secured Party hereby agrees not to assert any claim (including as a result of any conflict of interest) against Wilmington Trust, National Association, or any successor, arising from the role of Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under the Credit Agreement so long as Wilmington Trust, National Association, or any such successor is either acting in accordance with the express terms of such documents or otherwise has not engaged in gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) The Initial Other Authorized Representative and the Initial Other First-Priority Secured Parties hereby waive any claim they may now or hereafter have against the Applicable Authorized Representative or any other First-Priority Secured Parties arising out of (i) any actions which the Applicable Authorized Representative (or any of its representatives) takes or omits to take (including actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, disposition, release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in accordance with any relevant First-Priority Collateral Documents, or any other agreement related thereto, or to the collection of the Obligations or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for the Obligations, (ii) any election by the Applicable Authorized Representative (or any of its agents), in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision of any other applicable Bankruptcy Law), or (iii) subject to Section 2.05, any borrowing by, or grant of a security interest or administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision of any other applicable Bankruptcy Law) by, the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, as debtor-in-possession.

SECTION 4.04 Reliance by Applicable Authorized Representative. The Applicable Authorized Representative shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Applicable Authorized Representative also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Applicable Authorized Representative may consult with legal counsel (who may include, but shall not be limited to counsel for the Parent Borrower or counsel for the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The exculpatory provisions of this ARTICLE IV shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of the Applicable Authorized Representative and any such sub-agent.

SECTION 4.06 Non-Reliance on Applicable Authorized Representative and Other First-Priority Secured Parties. Each First-Priority Secured Party, other than the Initial Other Authorized Representative, acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Applicable Authorized Representative, any Authorized Representative or any other First-Priority Secured Party or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Secured Credit Documents. Each First-Priority Secured Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent, any Authorized Representative or any other First-Priority Secured Party or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Secured Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(a) No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.02(b) to the contrary, this Agreement may be amended from time to time at the request of the Parent Borrower, at the Parent Borrower’s expense, and without the consent of any Authorized Representative or any First-Priority Secured Party to add other parties holding Other First-Priority Obligations (or any agent or trustee therefor) or any obligations in respect of Refinancing indebtedness, in each case to the extent such obligations are not prohibited by any Secured Credit Document.

The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 5.07 Governing Law.

23

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right of any other party hereto (or any First-Priority Secured Party) to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law; and

None of the Parent Borrower, any other Grantor or any other creditor thereof shall have any rights or obligations hereunder, except as expressly provided in this Agreement (provided that nothing in this Agreement (other than Section 2.04, 2.05, 2.08, 2.09 or Article V) is intended to or will amend, waive or otherwise modify the provisions of the Credit Agreement or any Other First-Priority Agreements), and none of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor may rely on the terms hereof (other than Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.08, 2.09 and Article V). Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair the obligations of any Grantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the First-Priority Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms.

SECTION 5.13 Authorized Representatives. Each of the Authorized Representative under the Credit Agreement and the Initial Other Authorized Representative is executing and delivering this Agreement solely in its capacity as such and pursuant to directions set forth in the Credit Agreement or the Initial Other First-Priority Agreement, as applicable; and in so doing, neither the Authorized Representative under the Credit Agreement nor the Initial Other Authorized Representative shall be responsible for the terms or sufficiency of this Agreement for any purpose.

24

Authorized Representative shall not have duties or obligations under or pursuant to this Agreement other than such duties expressly set forth in this Agreement as duties on its part to be performed or observed.

SECTION 5.15 Other First-Priority Obligations. So long as not prohibited by the Credit Agreement or any other Secured Credit Document then in effect, the Parent Borrower may from time to time designate obligations in respect of Indebtedness to be secured (except with respect to any applicable Specified Excluded Collateral) on a pari passu basis with the then-outstanding First-Priority Secured Obligations as Other First-Priority Obligations hereunder by delivering to each Authorized Representative (a) a certificate of the Parent Borrower (i) identifying the obligations so designated and the initial aggregate principal amount or face amount thereof, (ii) stating that such obligations are designated as Other First-Priority Obligations for purposes hereof, (iii) representing that such designation of such obligations as Other First-Priority Obligations is not prohibited by the Credit Agreement or any other Secured Credit Document then in effect, and (iv) specifying the name and address of the Authorized Representative for such obligations, and (b) an Other First-Priority Secured Party Consent executed by the Authorized Representative for such obligations and the Parent Borrower. Upon the satisfaction of all conditions set forth in the preceding sentence, (x) the Applicable Authorized Representative shall execute and deliver the acknowledgement at the end of the Other First-Priority Secured Party Consent, and (y) such Other First-Priority Obligations shall automatically be deemed to be “Other First Lien Obligations” (or analogous term).
