Section 2.02. Termination of Series A Incremental Term Loan Commitments. Unless previously terminated, the Series A Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall terminate after the borrowing of the Series A Incremental Term Loans on the Series A Incremental Term Loan Effective Date.

The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Series A Incremental Term Lender the principal amount of the Series A Incremental Term Loans held by such Series A Incremental Term Lender in 8 consecutive quarterly installments payable on the Tranche 2 Term Loan Principal Payment Dates, the aggregate principal amount to be paid on each such date in respect of all Series A Incremental Term Loans held by the Series A Incremental Term Lenders to be in an amount equal to the percentage specified below of the aggregate original principal amount of the Series A Incremental Term Loans outstanding as of Series A Incremental Term Loan Effective Date (with the final such installment on the Tranche 2 Term Loan Maturity Date being in the aggregate principal amount of Series A Incremental Term Loans then outstanding):

Section 2.04. Interest Rate. The interest rate payable on the Series A Incremental Term Loan pursuant to the Credit Agreement (and the “Applicable Rate” with respect thereto) shall be the same as the interest rate payable on the Tranche 2 Term Loans.

Section 2.05. Status of Agreement. The Series A Incremental Term Loan Commitments constitute Incremental Term Loan Commitments, the Series A Incremental Term Loans constitute Incremental Term Loans and each Series A Incremental Term Lender constitutes an Incremental Term Lender, in each case, under and for all purposes of the Credit Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the agreement with respect to the Series A Incremental Term Loan Commitments and the Series A Incremental Term Loans under Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement and a “Loan Document” for purposes of the Credit Agreement.

Section 2.06. Notice of Series A Incremental Term Loan Commitments; Consent of Administrative Agent.

Section 2.07. Treatment of Series A Incremental Term Loans as Tranche 2 Term Loans. Pursuant to clause (vi) of Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement, the Series A Incremental Term Loans shall be treated as Tranche 2 Term Loans, and not as a separate tranche of Term Loans, for purposes of the Credit Agreement. As such, upon the making of the Series A Incremental Term Loans as of the Series A Incremental Term Loan Effective Date, as provided by the penultimate paragraph of Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement, such Series A Incremental Term Loan shall consist proportionately of the same Type of Term Loans as the then outstanding Tranche 2 Term Loans and, in the case of Eurocurrency Term Loans, having an Interest Period or Interest Periods ending on the last day(s) of the Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Tranche 2 Term Loans.
