“Acquisition Lease Financing” means any sale or transfer by the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary of any property, real or personal, that is acquired pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $75,000,000 at any time after the Effective Date, which property is rented or leased by the Parent Borrower or such Subsidiary from the purchaser or transferee of such property, so long as the proceeds from such transaction consist solely of cash.

“Adjusted LIBO Rate” means, with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/16 of 1%) equal to (a) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by (b) the Statutory Reserve Rate; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Tranche B Term Loans, the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall at no time be less than 1.25% per annum.

“Administrative Agent” means JPMCB, in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder.

By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Class A Revolving Lender, and each Class A Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Class A Revolving Lender’s Class A Revolving Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Class A Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Class A Revolving Lender’s Class A Revolving Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment in respect of an LC Disbursement required to be refunded to the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, for any reason. Each Class A Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of its Class A Revolving Commitment or all Class A Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the

Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time or London time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time or London time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, receives such notice; provided that (i) the Parent Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Parent Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Loans or Swingline Loan and (ii) such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Eurocurrency Revolving Loans. If the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, in respect thereof and such Lender’s Class A Revolving Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Class A Revolving Applicable Percentage of the unreimbursed LC Disbursement in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Class A Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Class A Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Class A Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then distribute such payment to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Class A Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Parent Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein, (ii) any

draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the obligations of the Parent Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, or any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Parent Borrower or any applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Parent Borrower or any applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Parent Borrower or any applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower or any applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not (i) relieve the Parent Borrower or any applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement (other than with respect to the timing of such reimbursement obligation set forth in Section 2.05(e)) or (ii) relieve any Lender’s obligations to acquire participations as required pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section 2.05.

(h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Parent Borrower or any applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Parent Borrower or any applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Parent Borrower or any applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank; Additional Issuing Banks. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers), the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. One or more Lenders may be appointed as additional Issuing Banks by written agreement among the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers), the Administrative Agent (whose consent will not be unreasonably withheld) and the Lender that is to be so appointed. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank or any such additional Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement or addition, as applicable, (i) the successor or additional Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or such addition or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor or such addition and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. If at any time there is more than one Issuing Bank hereunder, the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) may, in its discretion, select which Issuing Bank is to issue any particular Letter of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Parent Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Class A Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Parent Borrower and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, as the case may be, shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Parent Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Article VII. Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Parent Borrower and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the risk and expense of the Parent Borrower and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Parent Borrower and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Class A Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Parent Borrower and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers under this Agreement. If the Parent Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount plus any accrued interest or realized profits of such amounts (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Parent Borrower or such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Parent Borrower is required to provide an amount of such collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(b), such amount plus any accrued interest or realized profits on account of such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Parent Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the Parent Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.11(b) and no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

SECTION 2.06. 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, New York City time to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Parent Borrower or such Foreign

Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City, and designated by the Parent Borrower or such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank.

(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 paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Parent Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of (x) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (y) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, the applicable rate shall be determined as specified in clause (y) above, or (ii) in the case of the Parent Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.07. 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 or as otherwise provided in Section 2.03. Thereafter, the Parent Borrower, the applicable Subsidiary Term Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of 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. The Parent Borrower, the applicable Subsidiary Term Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, 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. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Parent Borrower, the applicable Subsidiary Term Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Parent Borrower, the applicable Subsidiary Term Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, were requesting a Revolving Borrowing, or Term Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Parent Borrower, the applicable Subsidiary Term Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be.

(c) Each telephonic and 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, the applicable Subsidiary Term Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

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

(e) If an Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing is not timely delivered 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 request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers), 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 2.08. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the Tranche B Term Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Effective Date and (ii) the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date.

(b) The Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Revolving Commitments of any Class shall not be terminated or reduced if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans of such Class in accordance with Section 2.11, the sum of the Revolving Exposures of such Class would exceed the total Revolving Commitments of such Class. For purposes of this paragraph (b), the Class A Revolving Commitments and Class B Revolving Commitments shall be deemed to be a single Class and (other than for purposes of clause (ii) above), any reduction in the Revolving Commitments shall be made ratably in accordance with each Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment, without regard to whether such Commitment is a Class A Revolving Commitment or a Class B Revolving Commitment.

(c) The Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments of any Class under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the occurrence of another transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders of such Class, as applicable, in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments of such Class; provided that for purposes of this paragraph (c), the Class A Revolving Commitments and Class B Revolving Commitments shall be deemed to constitute a single Class. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.08(c) shall specify the aggregate amount of the Commitments of each Class (without giving effect to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence) being so reduced.

SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Parent Borrower, each Subsidiary Term Borrower (with respect to Term Loans made to such Subsidiary Term Borrower) and each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender on the Revolving Maturity Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.10 and (iii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Parent Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans that were outstanding on the date such Borrowing was requested.

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

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

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

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Parent Borrower, the applicable Subsidiary Term Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.10. Amortization of Term Loans. (a) Subject to adjustment pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, the Term Borrowers shall repay Tranche B Term Loans on the last day of each March, June, September and December, beginning with September 30, 2011, and ending with the last such day to occur prior to the Tranche B Term Maturity Date, in an aggregate principal amount for each such date equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B Term Borrowings outstanding on the Effective Date. The Borrower shall repay Incremental Term Loans of any Series in such amounts and on such date or dates as shall be specified therefor in the Incremental Facility Agreement establishing the Incremental Term Commitments of such Series (as such amounts may be adjusted pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section or pursuant to such Incremental Facility Agreement).

(b) [Reserved].

(c) To the extent not previously paid, (i) all Tranche B Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Tranche B Term Maturity Date and (ii) all Incremental Term Loans of any Series shall be due and payable on the Incremental Term Maturity Date applicable thereto.

(d) Any prepayment of a Term Borrowing of any Class shall be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of the Term Borrowings of such Class to be made pursuant to this Section ratably; provided that any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) shall be applied, first, to reduce the next two scheduled repayments of the Term Loans of such Class due to be made within the next twelve months pursuant to this Section unless and until such next scheduled repayment has been eliminated as a result of reductions hereunder (provided, further, that the amount of such prepayment that may be allocated as provided in this proviso may not exceed the greater of 50% of such prepayment and the amount of such two scheduled repayments). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayment of Eurocurrency Term Borrowings of any Class made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) on a date that is (i) the last day of an Interest Period and (ii) no more than five days prior to a scheduled amortization payment pursuant to this Section shall be applied, first, to reduce such scheduled payment, and any excess shall be applied as required by the first sentence of this Section 2.10(d).

(e) Prior to any repayment of any Term Borrowings of any Class hereunder, the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the applicable Subsidiary Term Borrower) shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings of the applicable Class to be repaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such selection not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. Each repayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing. Repayments of Term Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid.

SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, as the case may be, shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this Section.

(b) In the event and on each occasion that (i) the sum of the Class A Revolving Exposures exceeds the total Class A Revolving Commitments or (ii) the sum of the Class B Revolving Exposures exceeds the total Class B Revolving Commitments, the Parent Borrower and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, as the case may be, shall prepay Loans (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(j)) in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

(c) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and, in the case of Term Loans, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers) shall, within three Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, prepay Term Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Proceeds; provided that, in the case of any event described in clause (a) of the definition of the term Prepayment Event (other than sales, transfers or other dispositions pursuant to Section 6.05(j) in excess of $50,000,000), if Holdings or the Parent Borrower shall deliver, within such three Business Days, to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer to the effect that Holdings, the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiaries, intend to apply the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate), within 365 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds, to acquire real property, equipment or other tangible assets to be used in the business of the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiaries, and certifying that no Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Proceeds in respect of such event (or the portion of such Net Proceeds specified in such certificate, if applicable) except to the extent of any such Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so applied by the end of such 365-day period, at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to such Net Proceeds that have not been so applied.

(d) Following the end of each fiscal year of the Parent Borrower, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011, the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and, in the case of Term Loans, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers) shall prepay Term Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year (each such prepayment of Excess Cash Flow to be applied as set forth in clause (i) below); provided that such percentage shall be reduced from 50% to (i) 25% with respect to the prepayment under this paragraph (e) if the Leverage Ratio as of the last fiscal quarter preceding the applicable prepayment date is less than 3.00 to 1.00 but greater than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00 and (ii) 0% with respect to the prepayment under this paragraph (e) if the Leverage Ratio as of the last fiscal quarter preceding the applicable prepayment date is less than 2.50 to 1.00. Each prepayment pursuant to this paragraph shall be made on or before the date on which financial statements are delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 with respect to the fiscal year for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated (and in any event within 95 days after the end of such fiscal year).

(e) Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings hereunder, the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (g) of this Section.

(f) The Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) shall notify the Administrative Agent and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender, by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment and (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that, if a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of any Class of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08; provided further that in the case of any prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing, the Parent Borrower shall provide separate notice of prepayment with respect to that portion of such Borrowing comprised of Class A Revolving Loans and that comprised of Class B Revolving Loans. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13.

(g) If, on or prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Date, (i) all or any of the Tranche B Term Loans are prepaid substantially concurrently with the proceeds of, or all or any of the Tranche B Term Loans are converted into, any new or replacement tranche of term loan Indebtedness (including any Incremental Term Loans incurred pursuant to Section 2.21) that has a Weighted Average Yield that is less than the Weighted Average Yield of the Tranche B Term Loans being prepaid or converted, or (ii) a Non-Consenting Lender must assign its Tranche B Term Loans pursuant to Section 10.02(c) or otherwise as a result of its failure to consent to an amendment that is passed and reduces the Weighted Average Yield then in effect with respect to the Tranche B Term Loans, then in each case the aggregate principal amount so prepaid, converted, assigned or repaid will be subject to a fee payable by the Parent Borrower equal to 1% of the principal amount thereof.

(h) In the event of any optional or mandatory prepayment of Term Borrowings made at a time when Term Borrowings of more than one Class remain outstanding, the Parent Borrower shall select Term Borrowings to be prepaid so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated among each Class of the Term Borrowings pro rata based on the aggregate principal amounts of outstanding Borrowings of each such Class; provided that the amounts so allocable to Incremental Term Loans of any Series may be applied to other Term Borrowings if so provided in the applicable Incremental Facility Agreement.

SECTION 2.12. Fees. (a) The Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates. Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing Commitment Fees with respect to Revolving Commitments, a Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose).

(b) (i) The Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) agrees to pay (A) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Class A Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate as interest on Eurocurrency Class A Revolving Loans made by such Lender on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which (x) such Lender’s Class A Revolving Commitment terminates and (y) such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (B) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.25% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which (x) all Class A Revolving Commitments terminate and (y) the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, administration, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees in respect of Letters of Credit shall be payable on the date on which the Class A

Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Class A Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c) The Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of Commitment Fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.13. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(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 Rate.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers or the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, as the case may be, 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% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans.

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

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate 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 Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing of any Class:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (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; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by a majority in interest of the Lenders of the applicable Class 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 shall give notice thereof to the Parent Borrower (on behalf of the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) and the Lenders of the applicable Class by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) and such Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, 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 any Eurocurrency Borrowing that is requested to be continued, shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes on its loans, loan principal, Letters of Credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Excluded Taxes and (B) Other Connection Taxes on gross or net income, profits or revenue (including value-added or similar Taxes));

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

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

(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Parent Borrower, the applicable Subsidiary Term Borrowers or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, as the case may be, shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that none of the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or

the Issuing Bank’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 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan or Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(g) and is revoked in accordance therewith), 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, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Parent Borrower, the applicable Subsidiary Term Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, 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 include an amount determined by such Lender 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 Adjusted 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, 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 the applicable currency 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 shall be delivered to the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Parent Borrower, the applicable Subsidiary Term Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.17. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes; provided that if the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower (the “Applicable Borrower”) or the Administrative Agent shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or the Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such

deductions been made, (ii) the Applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the Applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

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

(c) The Applicable Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within 10 Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Applicable Borrower, hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) 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 as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Applicable Borrower by a Lender or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Applicable Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Applicable Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Applicable Borrower to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

(f) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed

documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so.

(i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to any Loan made to the Parent Borrower, a Subsidiary Term Borrower or a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower that is or deemed a U.S. Person (the “Applicable U.S. Borrower”), any Lender shall, to the extent it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Applicable U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by the Applicable U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto, duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

(B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (1) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(C) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender for whom payments under this Agreement constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;

(D) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN and (2) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K (a “U.S. Tax Certificate”) to the effect that such Lender is not (a) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Applicable U.S. Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code (c) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (d) conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected;

(E) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made under this Agreement (including a partnership or a participating Lender) (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) and (F) of this paragraph (g)(ii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; provided, however, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Certificate on behalf of such partners; or

(F) any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable the Applicable U.S. Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld.

(ii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Applicable U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Applicable U.S. Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Applicable U.S. Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Applicable U.S. Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(f)(ii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(g) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, agrees to repay to such indemnified party the amount paid to such indemnified party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Nothing contained in this Section 2.17(g) shall require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) For purposes of Section 2.17, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank.

SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) on or before the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without 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 at its offices at 383 Madison Avenue, New York, New York, except that payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein shall be so made and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. 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. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business 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. Subject to Section 9.01, (i) all payments under each Loan Document of principal or interest in respect of any Loan or LC Disbursement shall be made in dollars and (iii) all other payments hereunder and under each other Loan Document shall be made in dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due 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 and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements 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 Revolving Loans, Term Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; 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 paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary 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 or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Parent Borrower, each Subsidiary Term Borrower and each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, 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, such Subsidiary Term Borrower or such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Parent Borrower, such Subsidiary Term Borrower or such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Parent Borrower, such Subsidiary Term Borrower or such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank 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.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.18(d) or 10.03(c), 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 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall 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 judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, 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 (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder (or, in the case of a Revolving Lender, becomes a Defaulting Lender), then the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee selected by the Parent Borrower that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Class A Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline 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, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or

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

SECTION 2.20. Designation of Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. The Parent Borrower may at any time and from time to time designate any Foreign Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrowing Agreement executed by such Foreign Subsidiary and the Parent Borrower, and upon such delivery such Foreign Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower until the Parent Borrower shall terminate such designation pursuant to a termination agreement satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, whereupon such Foreign Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and a party to this Agreement and any other applicable Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, but subject to Section 10.04(a), no such termination will become effective as to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is outstanding. As soon as practicable upon receipt of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrowing Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall send a copy thereof to each Lender.

SECTION 2.21. Incremental Facilities. (a) The Parent Borrower may on one or more occasions, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, request (i) during the Revolving Availability Period, the establishment of Incremental Class A Revolving Commitments and/or (ii) the establishment of Incremental Term Commitments; provided that the aggregate amount of all Incremental Class A Revolving Commitments established hereunder shall not exceed $125,000,000 and the aggregate amount of all Incremental Term Commitments established hereunder shall not exceed $200,000,000. Each such notice shall specify (A) the date on which the Parent Borrower proposes that the Incremental Class A Revolving Commitments or the Incremental Term Commitments, as applicable, shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent) after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and (B) the amount of the Incremental Class A Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Commitments, as applicable, being requested (it being agreed that (x) any Lender approached to provide any Incremental Class A Revolving Commitment or Incremental Term Commitment may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Class A Revolving Commitment or Incremental Term Commitment and (y) any Person that the Parent Borrower proposes to become an Incremental Lender, if such Person is not then a Lender, must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any proposed Incremental Class A Revolving Lender, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender).

(b) The terms and conditions of any Incremental Class A Revolving Commitment and Loans and other extensions of credit to be made thereunder shall be identical to those of the Class A Revolving Commitments and Loans and other extensions of credit made thereunder, and shall be treated as a single Class with such Class A Revolving Commitments and Loans. The terms and conditions of any Incremental Term Commitments and the Incremental Term Loans to be made thereunder shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the applicable Incremental Facility Agreement, identical to those of the Tranche B Term Commitments and the Tranche B Term Loans; provided that (i) if the Weighted Average Yield applicable to any Incremental Term Loans exceeds by more than 0.25% per annum the applicable Weighted Average Yield payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, as amended through the date of such calculation, with respect to Tranche B Term Loans, then the Applicable Rate then in effect for Tranche B Term Loans shall automatically be increased to eliminate such excess, (ii) the weighted average life to maturity of any Incremental Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Tranche B Terms Loans, (iii) no Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date shall be earlier than the Tranche B Term Maturity Date, (iv) except as set forth above, the Incremental Term Loans shall be treated no more favorably than the Tranche B Term Loans (in each case, including with respect to mandatory and voluntary prepayments) provided that the terms and conditions applicable to Incremental Term Loans maturing after the latest Maturity Date applicable to any Loans outstanding or Commitments in effect hereunder immediately prior to the establishment of such Incremental Facility may provide for material additional or different financial or other covenants or prepayment requirements applicable only during periods after such Maturity Date and (B) to the extent the terms applicable to such Incremental Facility are inconsistent with the terms applicable to the Tranche B Term Loans (except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this paragraph (b)), such terms shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (vi) any Incremental Facility shall have the same Guarantees as, shall rank pari passu with respect to the Liens on the Collateral and in right of payment with the Loans (except to the extent that the related Incremental Facility Agreement provides for such Incremental Term Loans to be treated less favorably). Any Incremental Term Commitments established pursuant to an Incremental Facility Agreement that have identical terms and conditions, and any Incremental Term Loans made thereunder, shall be designated as a separate series (each a “Series”) of Incremental Term Commitments and Incremental Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.

(c) The Incremental Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Incremental Facility Agreements executed and delivered by Holdings, the Parent Borrower, each Incremental Lender providing such Incremental Commitments and the Administrative Agent; provided that no Incremental Commitments shall become effective unless (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of effectiveness thereof, both immediately prior to and immediately after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments and the making of Loans and issuance of Letters of Credit thereunder to be made on such date, (ii) on the date of effectiveness thereof, the representations and warranties of each Loan Party set forth in the Loan Documents shall be true and correct on and as of such date, (iii) after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments and the making of Loans and other extensions of credit thereunder to be made on the date of effectiveness thereof, (A) the First Lien Leverage Ratio, calculated on a pro forma basis, shall not exceed 3.00 to 1.00 and (B) Holdings and the Parent

Borrower shall be in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Sections 6.12 and 6.13, (iv) the Parent Borrower shall make any payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16 in connection with such Incremental Commitments and the related transactions under this Section, and (v) the other conditions, if any, set forth in the applicable Incremental Facility Agreement are satisfied. Each Incremental Facility Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to give effect to the provisions of this Section.

(d) Upon the effectiveness of an Incremental Commitment of any Incremental Lender, (i) such Incremental Lender shall be deemed to be a “Lender” (and a Lender in respect of Commitments and Loans of the applicable Class) hereunder, and henceforth shall be entitled to all the rights of, and benefits accruing to, Lenders (or Lenders in respect of Commitments and Loans of the applicable Class) hereunder and shall be bound by all agreements, acknowledgements and other obligations of Lenders (or Lenders in respect of Commitments and Loans of the applicable Class) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (ii) in the case of any Incremental Class A Revolving Commitment, (A) such Incremental Class A Revolving Commitment shall constitute (or, in the event such Incremental Lender already has a Class A Revolving Commitment, shall increase) the Class A Revolving Commitment of such Incremental Lender and (B) the total Class A Revolving Commitments shall be increased by the amount of such Incremental Class A Revolving Commitment, in each case, subject to further increase or reduction from time to time as set forth in the definition of the term “Revolving Commitment”. For the avoidance of doubt, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Class A Revolving Commitment, the Class A Revolving Exposure of the Incremental Revolving Lender holding such Commitment, and the Class A Revolving Applicable Percentage of all the Class A Revolving Lenders, shall automatically be adjusted to give effect thereto.

(e) On the date of effectiveness of any Incremental Revolving Commitments, each Revolving Lender shall assign to each Incremental Class A Revolving Lender holding such Incremental Class A Revolving Commitment, and each such Incremental Class A Revolving Lender shall purchase from each Revolving Lender, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit outstanding on such date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit will be held by all the Revolving Lenders or all the Class A Revolving Lenders (including such Incremental Class A Revolving Lenders), as applicable, ratably in accordance with their Class A Revolving Applicable Percentages or Class B Revolving Applicable Percentages, as applicable, after giving effect to the effectiveness of such Incremental Class A Revolving Commitment.

(f) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the applicable Incremental Facility Agreement, each Lender holding an Incremental Term Commitment of any Series shall make a loan to the Parent Borrower in an amount equal to such Incremental Term Commitment on the date specified in such Incremental Facility Agreement.

(g) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of any notice from the Parent Borrower referred to in paragraph (a) above and of the effectiveness of any Incremental Commitments, in each case advising the Lenders of the details thereof and, in the case of effectiveness of any Incremental Class A Revolving Commitments, of the Class A Applicable Percentages and Class B Applicable Percentages of the Revolving Lenders after giving effect thereto and of the assignments required to be made pursuant to paragraph (e) above.

SECTION 2.22. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) Fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a).

(b) The Revolving Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 10.02); provided that any waiver, amendment or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

(c) If any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time a Class A Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then (i) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the Class A Revolving Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Class A Revolving Applicable Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Class A Revolving Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Class A Revolving Commitments and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time. In the case of any such reallocation, the fees payable to the Class A Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and Section 2.12(b)(i) shall be adjusted in accordance with such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Class A Revolving Applicable Percentages.

(d) If the reallocation described in clause (c) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Parent Borrower shall, within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (c)

above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding. In the case of any such cash collateralization, the Parent Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure for so long as such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized.

(e) If any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Class A Revolving Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender hereunder, all participation fees payable under Section 2.12(b)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated pursuant to paragraph (c) and (d) above.

(f) So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Class A Revolving Commitments of the Class A Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Parent Borrower in accordance with paragraph (c) above, and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among Class A Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with paragraph (c) above (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).

(g) In the event that (i) a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender as a result of the occurrence of any event described in clause (d) of the definition of the term “Defaulting Lender” with respect to such Lender’s parent company and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Revolving Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan, and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with Holdings and the Borrower or such Revolving Lender satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

(h) In the event that (x) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Class A Revolving Lender Parent shall have occurred following the date hereof and for so long as such Bankruptcy Event shall continue or (y) the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Class A Revolving Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required

to fund any Swingline Loan, and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with Holdings and the Parent Borrower or such Class A Revolving Lender satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

(i) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Class A Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Class A Revolving Loans and Class B Revolving Loans of the other Class A Revolving Lenders and Class B Revolving Lenders (but not Swingline Loans) as the Administrative shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Class A Revolving Loans and Class B Revolving Loans in accordance with its Class A Revolving Applicable Percentage or Class B Revolving Applicable Percentage, as applicable.

(b) The Security Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) and, when financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 6 to the Perfection Certificate, the security interest created by the Security Agreement shall constitute a perfected security interest in all right, title and interest of the grantors thereunder in such Collateral (other than the Intellectual Property (as defined in the Security Agreement)), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person, other than with respect to Liens permitted by Section 6.02.

(c) When the Security Agreement (or a summary thereof) is filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office and the financing statements referred to in Section 3.17(b) above are appropriately filed, the security interest created by the Security Agreement shall constitute a perfected security interest in all right, title and interest of the grantors thereunder in the Intellectual Property (as defined in the Security Agreement) in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a security agreement, financing statement or analogous document in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (it being understood that subsequent recordings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office and subsequent UCC filings may be necessary to perfect a lien on registered trademarks, trademark applications and copyrights acquired by the Loan Parties after the Effective Date), other than with respect to Liens permitted by Section 6.02.

(p) at any time at which the Senior Secured Notes or any other Indebtedness constituting Second Priority Obligations under and as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement remain outstanding, the Intercreditor Agreement shall cease to be, or shall have been asserted not to be, in full force and effect; or

(q) a Change in Control shall occur;

108

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of this Article), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers), take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately, and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers; and in case of any event with respect to the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of this Article, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower accrued hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent (it being understood that reference in this Article VIII to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to include the Collateral Agent) as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

The bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise

109

any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by Holdings, the Parent Borrower, a Subsidiary Term Borrower, a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Event of default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent 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 believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Parent Borrower, a Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

110

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers). Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Parent Borrower and, if applicable, the relevant Subsidiary Term Borrower and Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, to appoint a successor from among the Lenders. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

ARTICLE IX

Collection Allocation Mechanism

SECTION 9.01. Implementation of CAM. (a) On the CAM Exchange Date, (i) the Commitments shall automatically and without further act be terminated as provided in Article VII and (ii) the Lenders shall automatically and without further act (and without regard to the provisions of Section 10.04) be deemed to have exchanged interests in the Credit Facilities such that in lieu of the interest of each Lender in each Credit Facility in which it shall participate as of such date (including such Lender’s interest in the Specified Obligations of each Loan Party in respect of each such Credit

111

Facility), such Lender shall hold an interest in every one of the Credit Facilities (including the Specified Obligations of each Loan Party in respect of each such Credit Facility and each LC Reserve Account established pursuant to Section 9.02 below), whether or not such Lender shall previously have participated therein, equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage thereof. Each Lender and each Loan Party hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees that the CAM Exchange shall be binding upon its successors and assigns and any person that acquires a participation in its interests in any Credit Facility.

(b) As a result of the CAM Exchange, upon and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment received by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Specified Obligations, and each distribution made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to any Security Documents in respect of the Specified Obligations, shall be distributed to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages. Any direct payment received by a Lender upon or after the CAM Exchange Date, including by way of setoff, in respect of a Specified Obligation shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders in accordance herewith.

SECTION 9.02. Letters of Credit. (a) In the event that on the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and undrawn in whole or in part, or any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit shall not have been reimbursed either by the Parent Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, or with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan, each Class A Revolving Lender shall promptly pay over to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds and in the currency that such Letters of Credit are denominated, an amount equal to such Class A Revolving Lender’s Class A Revolving Applicable Percentage (as notified to such Lender by the Administrative Agent) of such Letter of Credit’s undrawn face amount or (to the extent it has not already done so) such Letter of Credit’s unreimbursed drawing, together with interest thereon from the CAM Exchange Date to the date on which such amount shall be paid to the Administrative Agent at the rate that would be applicable at the time to an ABR Class A Revolving Loan in a principal amount equal to such amount, as the case may be. The Administrative Agent shall establish a separate account or accounts for each Class A Revolving Lender (each, an “LC Reserve Account”) for the amounts received with respect to each such Letter of Credit pursuant to the preceding sentence. The Administrative Agent shall deposit in each Class A Revolving Lender’s LC Reserve Account such Lender’s CAM Percentage of the amounts received from the Class A Revolving Lenders as provided above. The Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control over each LC Reserve Account, and the amounts deposited in each LC Reserve Account shall be held in such LC Reserve Account until withdrawn as provided in paragraph (b), (c), (d) or (e) below. The Administrative Agent shall maintain records enabling it to determine the amounts paid over to it and deposited in the LC Reserve Accounts in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amounts on deposit in respect of each Letter of Credit attributable to each Lender’s CAM Percentage. The amounts held in each Lender’s LC Reserve Account shall be held as a reserve against the LC Exposure, shall be the property of such Lender, shall not constitute Loans to or give

112

rise to any claim of or against any Loan Party and shall not give rise to any obligation on the part of the Parent Borrower or the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers to pay interest to such Lender, it being agreed that the reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall arise only at such times as drawings are made thereunder, as provided in Section 2.05.

(b) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any drawing shall be made in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Issuing Bank, withdraw from the LC Reserve Account of each Class A Revolving Lender any amounts, up to the amount of such Lender’s CAM Percentage of such drawing, deposited in respect of such Letter of Credit and remaining on deposit and deliver such amounts to the Issuing Bank in satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Class A Revolving Lenders under Section 2.05(e) (but not of the Parent Borrower and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers under Section 2.05(f), respectively). In the event any Class A Revolving Lender shall default on its obligation to pay over any amount to the Administrative Agent in respect of any Letter of Credit as provided in this Section 9.02, the Issuing Bank shall, in the event of a drawing thereunder, have a claim against such Class A Revolving Lender to the same extent as if such Lender had defaulted on its obligations under Section 2.05(e), but shall have no claim against any other Lender in respect of such defaulted amount, notwithstanding the exchange of interests in the reimbursement obligations pursuant to Section 9.01. Each other Lender shall have a claim against such defaulting Class A Revolving Lender for any damages sustained by it as a result of such default, including, in the event such Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, its CAM Percentage of the defaulted amount.

(c) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, the Administrative Agent shall withdraw from the LC Reserve Account of each Class A Revolving Lender the amount remaining on deposit therein in respect of such Letter of Credit and distribute such amount to such Lender.

(d) With the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, any Class A Revolving Lender may withdraw the amount held in its LC Reserve Account in respect of the undrawn amount of any Letter of Credit. Any Class A Revolving Lender making such a withdrawal shall be unconditionally obligated, in the event there shall subsequently be a drawing under such Letter of Credit, to pay over to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank on demand, its CAM Percentage of such drawing.

(e) Pending the withdrawal by any Class A Revolving Lender of any amounts from its LC Reserve Account as contemplated by the above paragraphs, the Administrative Agent will, at the direction of such Lender and subject to such rules as the Administrative Agent may prescribe for the avoidance of inconvenience, invest such amounts in Permitted Investments. Each Class A

113

Revolving Lender that has not withdrawn its CAM Percentage of amounts in its LC Reserve Account as provided in paragraph (d) above shall have the right, at intervals reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent, to withdraw the earnings on investments so made by the Administrative Agent with amounts in its LC Reserve Account and to retain such earnings for its own account.

SECTION 10.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other 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, the Issuing Bank 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 any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Except as provided in Section 2.21, neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings, the Parent Borrower, each Subsidiary Term Borrower (but only to the extent such waiver, amendment or modification relates to such Subsidiary Term Borrower), each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower (but only to the extent such waiver, amendment or modification relates to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower) and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the written consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the maturity of any Loan, or any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Term Loan under Section 2.10, or the required date of reimbursement of any LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any

115

interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce or forgive the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Letter of Credit beyond the Revolving Maturity Date, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.18(a), (b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document (including this Section) specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be), (vi) release Holdings or any Subsidiary Loan Party from its Guarantee under the Guarantee Agreement (except as expressly provided in the Guarantee Agreement), or limit its liability in respect of such Guarantee, without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents, without the written consent of each Lender (except as expressly provided in the Security Documents) or (viii) change any provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of any Class differently than those holding Loans of any other Class, without the written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each affected Class; provided, further, that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (B) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of the Lenders of a particular Class (but not the Lenders of any other Class) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings, the Parent Borrower, each Subsidiary Term Borrower (but only to the extent such waiver, amendment or modification relates to such Subsidiary Term Borrower), each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower (but only to the extent such waiver, amendment or modification relates to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower) and requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by Holdings, the Parent Borrower, each Subsidiary Term Borrower (but only to the extent such waiver, amendment or modification relates to such Subsidiary Term Borrower), each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower (but only to the extent such waiver, amendment or modification relates to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower), the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent (and, if their rights or obligations are affected thereby, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender) if (i) by the terms of such agreement the Commitment of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment and (ii) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.

116

(c) In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders, if the consent of the Required Lenders (and, to the extent any Proposed Change requires the consent of Lenders holding Loans of any Class pursuant to clause (v) or (viii) of paragraph (b) of this Section, the consent of at least 50% in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of such Class) to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in paragraph (b) of this Section being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Lender that is acting as Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, the Parent Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Non-Consenting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights 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 (a) the Parent Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (b) such Non-Consenting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline 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 Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (c) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 10.04(b), (d) such assignee shall consent to such Proposed Change and (e) if such Non-Consenting Lender is acting as the Administrative Agent, it will not be required to assign and delegate its interests, rights and obligations as Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

SECTION 10.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) Holdings, the Parent Borrower, each Subsidiary Term Borrower and each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, jointly and severally, shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents and their Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel in each applicable jurisdiction for each of the Agents, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, due diligence investigation, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

117

(b) Holdings, the Parent Borrower, each Subsidiary Term Borrower and each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Agents, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or formerly owned or operated by Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This Section 10.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) To the extent that any of Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any of the Subsidiary Term Borrowers or any of the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section (and without limiting such party’s obligation to do so), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such; provided further that to the extent indemnification of (i) the Issuing Bank in respect of a Letter of Credit or (ii) the Swingline Lender is required pursuant to this Section 10.03(c), such obligation will be limited to Class A Revolving Lenders only. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Exposures, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time.

118

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall assert, and each hereby waives, 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 or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

(f) Neither Heartland nor any director, officer, employee, stockholder or member, as such, of any Loan Party or Heartland shall have any liability for the Obligations or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of the Obligations or their creation; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to relieve any Loan Party of its Obligations under any Loan Document.

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.3 shall not apply to any Taxes, except to the extent any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising from any non-Tax claim.

SECTION 10.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that, subject to Section 10.15(g), none of Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, a Lender Affiliate or an Approved Fund, each of the Parent Borrower, each Subsidiary Term Borrower (but only to the extent such assignment relates to a Term Loan made to such Subsidiary Term Borrower), each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a Class A Revolving Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender) must

119

give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) no assignment of Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments may be made to Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower, any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing and (iii) the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans collectively held by Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower, any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and any Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall not at any time exceed 15% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding at such time; provided, further, that the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment of Term Loans unless they shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, a Lender Affiliate or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than (x) in the case of Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans, $5,000,000, and (y) in the case of Tranche B Term Loans, $1,000,000 unless each of the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, (iii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, except that this clause (iii) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans, (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and provided, further, that any consent of the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be required if an Event of Default under Article VII has occurred and is continuing. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, 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 Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption 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 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section.

120

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Holdings, the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers, the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank 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 Subsidiary Term Borrowers, the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(e) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans and its Deposit owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Holdings, the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers, the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank 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 or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the limitations and requirements therein, including the requirements under Section 2.17(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a

121

Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.19 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. With respect to any Loan made to an Applicable U.S. Borrower (as defined in Section 2.17(f)(i)), each Lender that sells a Participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of such Applicable U.S. Borrower, as applicable, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or in connection with any income tax audit or other income tax proceeding of the Applicable U.S. Borrower. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 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 prior written consent of the Parent Borrower and, to the extent applicable, each relevant Subsidiary Term Borrower and Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. A Participant that would be a Non-U.S. Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Parent Borrower and, to the extent applicable, each relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Parent Borrower and, to the extent applicable, each relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, to comply with Section 2.17(f) as though it were a Lender.

(g) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, 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, and this Section 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.

122

SECTION 10.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 10.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates 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 obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Parent

123

Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 10.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) Each of Holdings, the Parent Borrower, each Subsidiary Term Borrower and each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any of the Subsidiary Term Borrowers, any of the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers or their properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each of Holdings, the Parent Borrower, each Subsidiary Term Borrower and each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower 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 any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. 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.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

124

SECTION 10.10. 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 ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (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 BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 10.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 10.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Lender Affiliates and to its and its Lender Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential pursuant to the terms hereof), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory or quasi-regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower, any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and their respective obligations, (g) with the consent of the Parent Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) is publicly available at the time of disclosure or becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary (including the Receivables Subsidiary). For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary (including the Receivables Subsidiary) relating to Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary (including the Receivables Subsidiary) or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary (including the Receivables Subsidiary); provided that, in the

125

case of information received from Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary (including the Receivables Subsidiary) after the Effective Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

SECTION 10.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 10.14. Judgment Currency. (a) The obligations hereunder of the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Term Borrowers and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in dollars shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than dollars, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or a Lender of the full amount of dollars expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Term Borrower, any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or any other Loan Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than dollars (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in dollars, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction, the first currency could be purchased with such other currency, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Parent Borrower, each Subsidiary Term Borrower and each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such

126

additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of dollars which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

(c) For purposes of determining the dollar equivalent of the Judgment Currency, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of dollars.

SECTION 10.15. Obligations Joint and Several. (a) Each Term Borrower agrees that it shall, jointly with the other Term Borrowers and severally, be liable for all the Obligations in respect of the Term Loans and Term Loan Commitments (the “Term Loan Obligations”). Each Term Borrower further agrees that the Term Loan Obligations of the other Term Borrowers may be extended and renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its agreement hereunder notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Term Loan Obligation of the other Term Borrowers.

(b) Each Term Borrower waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the other Term Borrowers of any of the Term Loan Obligations or the other Term Borrowers of any Term Loan Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The Term Loan Obligations of a Term Borrower hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Term Lender or the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the other Term Borrowers under the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any other agreement; or (iii) the failure of any Term Lender or the Issuing Bank to exercise any right or remedy against any other Term Borrower.

(c) Each Term Borrower further agrees that its agreement hereunder constitutes a promise of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Term Lender or the Issuing Bank to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Term Lender or the Issuing Bank in favor of any other Term Borrower or any other person.

(d) The Term Loan Obligations of each Term Borrower hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Term Loan Obligations of the other Term Borrowers or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Term Loan Obligations of each Term Borrower hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by

127

the failure of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Term Lender or the Issuing Bank to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification in respect of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Term Loan Obligations of the other Term Borrowers or by any other act or omission which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Term Borrower or otherwise operate as a discharge of such Term Borrower as a matter of law or equity.

(e) Each Term Borrower further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Term Loan Obligation of the other Term Borrowers is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Term Lender or the Issuing Bank upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the other Term Borrowers or otherwise.

(f) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Term Lender or the Issuing Bank may have at law or in equity against any Term Borrower by virtue hereof, upon the failure of a Term Borrower to pay any Term Loan Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each other Term Borrower hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Administrative Agent, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash the amount of such unpaid Term Loan Obligations, and thereupon each Term Lender shall, in a reasonable manner, assign the amount of the Term Loan Obligations of the other Term Borrowers owed to it and paid by such Term Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.15 to such Term Borrower, such assignment to be pro tanto to the extent to which the Term Loan Obligations in question were discharged by such Term Borrower or make such disposition thereof as such Term Borrower shall direct (all without recourse to any Term Lender and without any representation or warranty by any Term Lender).

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the Parent Borrower shall be entitled, at any time and in its sole discretion, to designate any Term Borrower (including itself) to replace any other Term Borrower as a borrower hereunder with respect to any outstanding Term Loans.

SECTION 10.16. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies Holdings and the Parent Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “PATRIOT Act”), it is required, or will be required in the future, to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Holdings, the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of Holdings, the Borrower and the other Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender to identify Holdings, the Borrower and the other Loan Parties in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

128

SECTION 10.17. Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agents to become party to the Intercreditor Agreement and to enter into any amendments and any other agreements necessary to effectuate each Agent’s joinder thereto, and each Lender agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement.

129

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
