If a withholding tax of the United States of America or any other Governmental Authority shall be or become applicable (y) after the date of this Agreement, to such payments by the Borrower made to the Lending Installation or any other office that a Lender may claim as its Lending Installation, or (z) after such Lender's selection and designation of any other Lending Installation, to such payments made to such other Lending Installation, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to make, fund and maintain the affected Loans through another Lending Installation of such Lender in another jurisdiction so as to reduce the Borrower's liability hereunder, if the making, funding or maintenance of such Loans through such other Lending Installation of such Lender does not, in the judgment of such Lender, otherwise adversely affect such Loans, or obligations under the Revolving Loan Commitments of such Lender.
2. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder, from the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Revolving Loan Commitments, the Loans or the Letters of Credit (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").
3. The Borrower indemnifies each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority on amounts payable under thisSection 2.13(E)) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. If the Taxes or Other Taxes with respect to which the Borrower has made either a direct payment to the taxation or other authority or an indemnification payment hereunder are subsequently refunded to any Lender, such Lender will return to the Borrower, if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, an amo unt equal to the lesser of the indemnification payment or the refunded amount. A certificate as to any additional amount payable to any Lender or the Administrative Agent under thisSection 2.13(E) submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (if a Lender is so submitting) by such Lender or the Administrative Agent shall show in reasonable detail the amount payable and the calculations used to determine such amount and shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto. With respect to such deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes and to confirm that all such Taxes have been paid to the appropriate Governmental Authorities, the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event not later than thirty (30) days after receipt) furnish to each Lender and the Administrative Agent such certificates, receipts and other documents as may be required (in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or the Administrative Agent) to establish any tax credit to w hich such Lender or the Administrative Agent may be entitled.
4. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.
5. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in thisSection 2.13(E) shall survive the payment in full of all Obligations, the termination of the Letters of Credit and the termination of this Agreement.
6. Each Lender (including any Replacement Lender or Purchaser) that is not created or organized under the laws of the United States of America or a political subdivision thereof (each a "Non-U.S. Lender") shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the Closing Date, or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender pursuant toSection 14.3 hereof (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only for so long as such Non-U.S. Lender is legally entitled to do so), either (1) two (2) duly completed copies of either (A) IRS Form W-8BEN, or (B) IRS Form W-8ECI, or in either case an applicable successor form; or (2) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not legally entitled to deliver the forms listed inclause (vi)(1), (x) a certificate of a duly authorized officer of such Non-U.S. Lender to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not (A) a "bank" within the meaning of Sect ion 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a "10 percent shareholder" of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest from a related person within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (such certificate, an "Exemption Certificate") and (y) two (2) duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or applicable successor form. Each such Lender further agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to time a true and accurate certificate executed in duplicate by a duly authorized officer of such Lender in a form satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, before or promptly upon the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent certificate previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent pursuant to thisSection 2.13(E)(vi). Further, each Lender which delivers a form or certificate pursuant to thisclause (vi) covenants and agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent within fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of such form, for so long as this Agreement is still in effect, another such certificate and/or two (2) accurate and complete original newly-signed copies of the applicable form (or any successor form or forms required under the Code or the applicable regulations promulgated thereunder).

Each Lender shall promptly furnish to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such additional documents as may be reasonably required by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to establish any exemption from or reduction of any Taxes or Other Taxes required to be deducted or withheld and which may be obtained without undue expense to such Lender. Notwithstanding any other provision of thisSection 2.13(E), the Borrower shall not be obligated to gross up any payments to any Lender pursuant toSection 2.13(E)(i), or to indemnify any Lender pursuant toSection 2.13(E)(iii), in respect of United States federal withholding taxes to the extent imposed as a result of (x) the failure of such Lender to deliver to the Borrower the form or forms and/or an Exemption Certificate, as applicable to such Lender, pursuant toSection 2.13(E)(vi), (y) such form or forms and/or Exemption Certificate not establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax or the information or certifications made therein by the Lender being untrue or inaccurate on the date delivered in any material respect, or (z) the Lender designating a successor Lending Installation at which it maintains its Loans which has the effect of causing such Lender to become obligated for tax payments in excess of those in effect immediately prior to such designation;provided,however, that the Borrower shall be obligated to gross up any payments to any such Lender pursuant toSection 2.13(E)(i), and to indemnify any such Lender pursuant toSection 2.13(E)(iii), in respect of United States federal withholding taxes if (x) any such failure to deliver a form or forms or an Exemption Certificate or the failure of such form or forms or exemption certificate to establish a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax or inaccuracy or untruth contained therein resulted from a change in any applicable statute, treaty, regulation or other applicable law or any interpretation of any of the foregoing occurring after the date hereof, which change rendered such Lender no longer legally entitled to deliver such form or forms or Exemption Certificate or otherwise ineligible for a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax, or rendered the information or the certifications made in such form or forms or Exemption Certificate untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, (y) the redesignation of the Lender's Lending Installation was made at the request of the Borrower or (z) the obligation to gross up payments to any such Lender pursuant toSection 2.13(E)(i), or to indemnify any such Lender pursuant toSection 2.13(E)(iii), is with respect to a Purchaser that becomes a Purchaser as a result of an assignment made at the request of the Borrower.

7. Upon the request, and at the expense of the Borrower, each Lender to which the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to thisSection 2.13(E), shall reasonably afford the Borrower the opportunity to contest, and shall reasonably cooperate with the Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Tax or Other Tax giving rise to such payment;provided, that (i) such Lender shall not be required to afford the Borrower the opportunity to so contest unless the Borrower shall have confirmed in writing to such Lender its obligation (for the benefit of such Lender and no other Person) to pay such amounts to such Lender pursuant to this Agreement; and (ii) the Borrower shall reimburse such Lender for its reasonable attorneys' and accountants' fees and disbursements incurred in so cooperating with the Borrower in contesting the imposition of such Tax or Other Tax;provided,however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be required to af ford the Borrower the opportunity to contest, or cooperate with the Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Taxes, if such Lender in good faith determines that to do so would have an adverse effect on it.
14. Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment Reductions. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing/Election Notice, and repayment notice received by it hereunder. The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower and each Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Loan promptly upon determination of such interest rate.
15. Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Loans or Letters of Credit at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender and may change its Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation. Each Lender may, by written or facsimile notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, designate a Lending Installation through which Loans will be made by it and for whose account Loan payments and/or payments of L/C Obligations are to be made.
16. Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with int erest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day or (ii) in the case of payment by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.
17. Replacement of Certain Lenders. In the event a Lender ("Affected Lender") shall have: (i) failed to fund its Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of any Advance requested by the Borrower, which such Lender is obligated to fund under the terms of this Agreement and which failure has not been cured, (ii) requested compensation from the Borrower underSections 2.13(E),4.1 or4.2 to recover Taxes, Other Taxes or other additional costs incurred by such Lender which are not being incurred generally by the other Lenders, (iii) delivered a notice pursuant toSection 4.2 claiming that such Lender is unable to extend Eurocurrency Rate Loans to the Borrower for reasons not generally applicable to the other Lenders or (iv) has invokedSection 11.2; then, in any such case, after engagement of one or more "Replacement Lenders" (as defined below) by the Borrower and/or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or the Administrative Age nt may make written demand on such Affected Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent in the case of a demand by the Borrower and a copy to the Borrower in the case of a demand by the Administrative Agent) for the Affected Lender to assign, and such Affected Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assign pursuant to one or more duly executed Assignment Agreements five (5) Business Days after the date of such demand, to one or more financial institutions that comply with the provisions ofSection 14.3(A) which the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall have engaged for such purpose ("Replacement Lender"), all of such Affected Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, its Revolving Loan Commitment, all Loans owing to it, all of its participation interests in existing Letters of Credit, L/C Drafts and unreimbursed drawings under Letters of Credit, and its obligation to participate in additional Letters of Credit hereunder) in accordance withSection 14.3. The Administrative Agent agrees, upon the occurrence of such events with respect to an Affected Lender and upon the written request of the Borrower, to use its reasonable efforts to obtain the commitments from one or more financial institutions to act as a Replacement Lender. The Administrative Agent is authorized to execute one or more of such assignment agreements as attorney-in-fact for any Affected Lender failing to execute and deliver the same within five (5) Business Days after the date of such demand. With respect to any such assignment, the Affected Lender shall have concurrently received, in cash, all amounts due and owing to the Affected Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans owed to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon through the date of such assignment, amounts payable underSections 2.13(E),4.1, and4.2 with respect to such Affected Lender and compensation payable underSection 2.13(C) in the event of any replacement of any Affected Lender underclause (ii) orclause (iii) of thisSection 2.17;provided that upon such Affected Lender's replacement, such Affected Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits ofSections 2.13(E),4.1,4.2,4.4, and11.7, as well as to any fees accrued for its account hereunder and not yet paid, and shall continue to be obligated underSection 12.8. Upon the replacement of any Affected Lender pursuant to thisSection 2.17, the provisions ofSection 9.2 shall continue to apply with respect to Loans which are then outstanding with respect to which the Affected Lender failed to fund its Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share and which failure has not been cured.
18. Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the "specified currency") into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent's main office in the applicable local jurisdiction on the Business Day preceding that on which the final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender underSec tion 14.2, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations, warranties and covenants of the Borrower herein set forth, the Issuing Bank hereby agrees to issue for the account of the Borrower through such Issuing Bank's branches as it and the Borrower may jointly agree, one or more Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars in accordance with thisArticle III, from time to time during the period, commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the Business Day that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Termination Date.

2. issue (or amend) any Letter of Credit which has an expiration date later than the date which is the earlier of (x) one (1) year after the date of issuance thereof or (y) five (5) Business Days immediately preceding the Termination Date;provided, that any Letter of Credit with a one year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one year periods (which in no event shall extend beyond the date referred to inclause (y) above).
4. Conditions. In addition to being subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions contained inArticle V, the obligation of the Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit is subject to the satisfaction in full of the following conditions:
1. The Borrower shall have delivered to the Issuing Bank (at such times and in such manner as such Issuing Bank may reasonably prescribe) and the Administrative Agent, a request for issuance of such Letter of Credit in substantially the form ofExhibit C hereto (each such request a "Request For Letter of Credit"), duly executed applications for such Letter of Credit (which shall contain terms consistent with this Agreement), and such other documents, instructions and agreements as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof (all such applications, documents, instructions, and agreements being referred to herein as the "L/C Documents"), and the proposed Letter of Credit shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank as to form and content; and
2. as of the date of issuance no order, judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit and no law, rule or regulation applicable to such Issuing Bank and no request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from a Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from the issuance of Letters of Credit generally or the issuance of that Letter of Credit.
5. Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit.
1. Issuance. Subject to the terms and conditions of thisArticle III and provided that the applicable conditions set forth inArticle V hereof have been satisfied, the Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit on behalf of the Borrower in accordance with such Issuing Bank's usual and customary business practices and, in this connection, such Issuing Bank may assume that the applicable conditions set forth inArticle V hereof have been satisfied unless it shall have received notice to the contrary from the Administrative Agent or a Lender or has knowledge that the applicable conditions have not been met.
2. Notice. The Issuing Bank shall give the Administrative Agent and the Borrower written or telex notice, or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, of the issuance of a Letter of Credit,provided,however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not result in any liability on the part of such Issuing Bank.
3. No Amendment. The Issuing Bank shall not extend or amend any Letter of Credit unless the requirements of thisSection 3.5 are met as though a new Letter of Credit was being requested and issued.
6. Letter of Credit Participation. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit hereunder, each Lender with a Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share shall be deemed to have automatically, irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the Issuing Bank an undivided interest and participation in and to such Letter of Credit, the obligations of the Borrower in respect thereof, and the liability of such Issuing Bank thereunder (collectively, an "L/C Interest") in the amount available for drawing under such Letter of Credit multiplied by such Lender's Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share. The Issuing Bank will notify each Lender promptly upon presentation to it of an L/C Draft or upon any other draw under a Letter of Credit. On or before the Business Day on which the Issuing Bank makes payment of each such L/C Draft or, in the case of any other draw on a Letter of Credit, on demand by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, each Lender shal l make payment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, in immediately available funds in an amount equal to such Lender's Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of such payment or draw. The obligation of each Lender to reimburse the Issuing Bank under thisSection 3.6 shall be unconditional, continuing, irrevocable and absolute. In the event that any Lender fails to make payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount due under thisSection 3.6, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, retain and apply against such obligation the principal and interest otherwise payable to such Lender hereunder until the Administrative Agent receives such payment from such Lender or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied;provided,however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall relieve such Lender of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank for such amount in accordance with thisSection 3.6.
7. Reimbursement Obligation. The Borrower agrees unconditionally, irrevocably and absolutely to pay immediately to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, the amount of each advance drawn under or pursuant to a Letter of Credit or an L/C Draft related thereto (such obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Administrative Agent for an advance made under a Letter of Credit or L/C Draft being hereinafter referred to as a "Reimbursement Obligation" with respect to such Letter of Credit or L/C Draft), each such reimbursement to be made by the Borrower no later than the Business Day on which the Issuing Bank makes payment of each such L/C Draft or, if the Borrower shall have received notice of a Reimbursement Obligation later than 12:00 p.m. (Miami time), on any Business Day or on a day which is not a Business Day, no later than 12:00 p.m. (Miami time), on the immediately following Business Day or, in the case of any other draw on a Let ter of Credit, the date specified in the demand of such Issuing Bank. If the Borrower at any time fails to repay a Reimbursement Obligation pursuant to thisSection 3.7, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to borrow Revolving Loans from the Lenders, as of the date of the advance giving rise to the Reimbursement Obligation, equal in amount to the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation. Such Revolving Loans shall be made as of the date of the payment giving rise to such Reimbursement Obligation, automatically, without notice and without any requirement to satisfy the conditions precedent otherwise applicable to an Advance of Revolving Loans. Such Revolving Loans shall constitute an Advance, the proceeds of which Advance shall be used to repay such Reimbursement Obligation. If, for any reason, the Borrower fails to repay a Reimbursement Obligation on the day such Reimbursement Obligation arises and, for any reason, the Lenders are unable to make or have no obligation to make Revolving Loans, then such Reimbursement Obligation shall bear interest from and after such day, until paid in full, at the interest rate applicable to an Advance.
8. Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay:
1. quarterly, in arrears, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, except as set forth inSection 9.2, a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable L/C Fee Percentage on the average daily outstanding amount available for drawing under all Letters of Credit;
2. quarterly, in arrears, to the Issuing Bank, a letter of credit fronting fee equal to 0.25% per annum on the average daily outstanding stated amount available for drawing under all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank; and
3. to the Issuing Bank, all customary fees and other issuance, amendment, cancellation, document examination, negotiation, transfer and presentment expenses and related charges in connection with the issuance, amendment, cancellation, presentation of L/C Drafts, negotiation, transfer and the like customarily charged by such Issuing Bank with respect to standby Letters of Credit, payable at the time of invoice of such amounts.
9. Issuing Bank Reporting Requirements. In addition to the notices required bySection 3.5(B), the Issuing Bank shall, no later than the tenth Business Day following the last day of each month, provide to the Administrative Agent, upon the Administrative Agent's request, schedules, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, showing the date of issue, account party, expiration date and the reference number of each Letter of Credit issued by it outstanding at any time during such month and the aggregate amount payable by the Borrower during such month. In addition, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank shall furnish to the Administrative Agent copies of any Letter of Credit and any application for or reimbursement agreement with respect to a Letter of Credit to which the Issuing Bank is party and such other documentation as may reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent. Upon the request of any Lender, the Administrative Agent will promptly provide to such Lender information concerning such Letters of Credit.
10. Indemnification; Exoneration.
1. Indemnification. In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in thisArticle III, the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender from and against any and all liabilities and costs which the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit other than, in the case of the Issuing Bank, as a result of its Gross Negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) the failure of the Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or futurede jure orde facto Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions herein called "Governmental Acts").
2. Risk Assumption. As among the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, the Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of such Letter of Credit by, the beneficiary of any Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, subject to the provisions of the Letter of Credit applications and Letter of Credit reimbursement agreements executed by the Borrower at the time of request for any Letter of Credit, neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall be responsible (in the absence of Gross Negligence or willful misconduct in connection therewith, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction): (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of the Letters of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects inv alid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) for failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to comply duly with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, or other similar form of teletransmission or otherwise; (v) for errors in interpretation of technical trade terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; and (viii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, including, without limitation, any Governmental Acts. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of the Issuing Bank's rights or powers under thisSection 3.10.
3. No Liability. In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with the Letters of Credit or any related certificates shall not, in the absence of Gross Negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, put the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any resulting liability to the Borrower or relieve the Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder to any such Person.
4. Survival of Agreements and Obligations. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in thisSection 3.10 shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder, the termination of the Letters of Credit and the termination of this Agreement.
11. Cash Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any application for a Letter of Credit, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, the Borrower shall, on the Business Day that it receives Administrative Agent's demand, deliver to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, cash, or other collateral of a type satisfactory to the Required Lenders, having a value, as determined by such Lenders, equal to the aggregate amount of the outstanding L/C Obligations. In addition, for so long as the Revolving Credit Availability is at any time less than the amount of all contingent L/C Obligations outstanding at any time, the Borrower shall deposit cash collateral with the Administrative Agent in Dollars in an amount equal to the amount by which such L/C Obligations exceed such Revolving Credit Availability. During such period, (i) any such cash collateral shall be held by the Administrati ve Agent in a separate account appropriately designated as a cash collateral account in relation to this Agreement and the Letters of Credit and retained by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank as collateral security for the Borrower's obligations in respect of this Agreement and each of the Letters of Credit and L/C Drafts, and (ii) such amounts shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Bank for drawings or payments under or pursuant to Letters of Credit or L/C Drafts. If no Default shall be continuing, amounts remaining in any cash collateral account established pursuant to thisSection 3.11 which are not to be applied to reimburse the Issuing Bank for amounts actually paid or to be paid by such Issuing Bank in respect of a Letter of Credit or L/C Draft, shall be returned to the Borrower, after deduction of the Administrative Agent's expenses incurred in connection with such cash collateral account.
4. CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES
1. Yield Protection. If any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) adopted after the date of this Agreement and having general applicability to all banks within the jurisdiction in which such Lender operates (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the effect of and phasing in of capital requirements or other regulations or guidelines passed prior to the date of this Agreement), or any interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or application thereof, or the compliance of any Lender therewith,
1. subjects any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation to any tax, duty, charge or withholding on or from payments due from the Borrower (excluding taxation of the overall net income of any Lender or taxation of a similar basis, which are governed bySection 2.13(E)), or changes the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender in respect of its Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans, its L/C Interests, the Letters of Credit or other amounts due it hereunder, or
2. imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation (other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Rate Loans) with respect to its Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans, L/C Interests or the Letters of Credit, or
3. imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation of making, funding or maintaining its Revolving Loan Commitment, the Loans, the L/C Interests or the Letters of Credit or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation in connection with its Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans or Letters of Credit, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans or L/C Interests held or interest received by it or by reference to the Letters of Credit, by an amount deemed material by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to that Lender of making, renewing or maintaining its Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans, L/C Interests, or Letters of Credit or to reduce any amount received under this Agreement, then, within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Borrower of written demand by such Lender pursuant toSection 4.5, the Borrower shall pay such Lender that portion of such increased expense incurred or reduction in an amount received which such Lender determines is attributable to making, funding and maintaining its Loans, L/C Interests, Letters of Credit and its Revolving Loan Commitment.

2. Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If a Lender determines (i) the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, any Lending Installation of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender is increased as a result of a "Change" (as defined below), and (ii) such increase in capital will result in an increase in the cost to such Lender of maintaining its Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans, L/C Interests, the Letters of Credit or its obligation to make Loans hereunder, then, within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Borrower of written demand by such Lender pursuant toSection 4.5, the Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital which such Lender determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Revolving Loan Commitment, its Loans, its L/C Interests, the Letters of Credit or its obligation to make Loans hereu nder (after taking into account such Lender's policies as to capital adequacy). "Change" means (i) any change after the date of this Agreement in the "Risk-Based Capital Guidelines" (as defined below) excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the effect of any phasing in of such Risk-Based Capital Guidelines or any other capital requirements passed prior to the date hereof, or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive (whether or not having the force of law) after the date of this Agreement which affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or any Lending Installation or any corporation controlling any Lender. "Risk-Based Capital Guidelines" means (i) the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in the United States on the date of this Agreement, including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by regulatory authorit ies outside the United States implementing the July 1988 report of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory Practices Entitled "International Convergence of Capital Measurements and Capital Standards," including transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations adopted prior to the date of this Agreement.
3. Illegality; Availability of Types of Advances. If (i) any Lender determines that maintenance of its Eurocurrency Rate Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or directive, whether or not having the force of law, or (ii) the Required Lenders determine that (x) deposits of a type, currency or maturity appropriate to match fund Eurocurrency Rate Loans are not available or (y) the interest rate applicable to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining such an Advance, then the Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of the affected Type of Advance and, in the case of any occurrence set forth inclause (i), require any Advances of the affected Type to be repaid or converted into another Type.
4. Funding Indemnification. Subject toSection 2.3(D), if any payment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment, or otherwise, or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan is not made on the date specified by the Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders, or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan is not prepaid on the date specified by the Borrower for any reason, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the Eurocurrency Rate Loan. In connection with any assignment by any Lender of any portion of the Loans made pursuant toSection 14.3, the Borrower shall be deemed to have repaid all outstanding Floating Rate Advance and/or a Eurocurrency Rate Advances of such Lender as of the effect ive date of such assignment and reborrowed such amount as a Floating Rate Advance and/or a Eurocurrency Rate Advance (chosen in accordance with the provisions ofSection 2.3) and the indemnification provisions under thisSection 4.4 shall apply.
5. Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. If reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Eurocurrency Rate Loan to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such Lender underSections 4.1 and4.2 or to avoid the unavailability of a type of Advance underSection 4.2, so long as such designation is not, in the judgment of the Lender, disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) as to the amount due, if any, underSection 2.13(E),4.1,4.2 or4.4 and shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be cal culated as though each Lender funded its Eurocurrency Rate Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type, currency and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Eurocurrency Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by the Borrower of such statement. The obligations of the Borrower underSections 2.13(E),4.1,4.2 and4.4 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.
6. Usury. All agreements between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity of the Indebtedness evidenced hereby or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders for the use or the forbearance of the Indebtedness evidenced hereby exceed the maximum permissible under applicable law. As used herein, the term shall mean the law in effect as of the date hereof;provided,however, that in the event there is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then this Agreement, any promissory note evidencing the Revolving Loans shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date. In this regard, it is expressly agreed that it is the intent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the execution, delivery and acceptance of any of the above- described promissory notes never to charge or contract for the payment of interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law. If, under or from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any of the Loan Documents executed in connection herewith at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit permitted by applicable law, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall automatically be reduced to such limit, and if under or from any circumstances whatsoever any Lender should ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance evidenced by the applicable promissory note and not to the payment of interest. This provision shall control every other provision of all Loan Documents among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

Schedule B to the most recent annual report filed with the IRS with respect to each Benefit Plan and furnished to the Lenders is complete and accurate. Since the date of each such Schedule B, there has been no material adverse change in the funding status or financial condition of the Benefit Plan relating to such Schedule B. Neither the Borrower nor any member of the Controlled Group has (i) failed to make a required contribution or payment to a Multiemployer Plan or (ii) made a complete or partial withdrawal under Sections 4203 or 4205 of ERISA from a Multiemployer Plan. Neither the Borrower nor any member of the Controlled Group has failed to make a required installment or any other required payment under Section 412 of the Code on or before the due date for such installment or other payment.

The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries are in compliance in all material respects with the responsibilities, obligations and duties imposed on them by ERISA and the Code with respect to all Plans. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any fiduciary of any Plan has engaged in a nonexempt prohibited transaction described in Sections 406 of ERISA or 4975 of the Code which could reasonably be expected to subject the Borrower or its Subsidiaries to liability in excess of $4,000,000. Neither the Borrower nor any member of the Controlled Group has taken or failed to take any action which would constitute or result in a Termination Event, which action or inaction could reasonably be expected to subject the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to liability, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $4,000,000. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiar y is subject to any liability under Sections 4063, 4064, 4069, 4204 or 4212(c) of ERISA and no other member of the Controlled Group is subject to any liability under Sections 4063, 4064, 4069, 4204 or 4212(c) of ERISA which could reasonably be expected to subject the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to liability, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $4,000,000 (other than liabilities of any ERISA affiliate which could not, by operation of law or otherwise, become a liability of the Borrower or any Subsidiary). Except as set forth onSchedule 6.9, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has, by reason of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents, any obligation to make any payment to any employee pursuant to any Plan or existing contract or arrangement.
10. Accuracy of Information. The exhibits and reports of the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries furnished to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender in connection with the negotiation of, or compliance with, the Loan Documents, the representations and warranties of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries contained in the Loan Documents, and all certificates delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the terms thereof, taken as a whole, do not contain as of the date furnished any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
11. Securities Activities. Margin Stock constitutes less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the value of those assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries which are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge, or other restriction hereunder.
12. Material Agreements. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any Contractual Obligation or subject to any charter or other corporate restriction which individually or in the aggregate has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has received notice or has knowledge that (i) it is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the materialobligations, covenants or conditions contained in any Contractual Obligation applicable to it, or (ii) any condition exists which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a default with respect to any such Contractual Obligation, in each case, except where such default or defaults, if any, individually or in the aggregate will not have or could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
13. Compliance with Laws. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all Requirements of Law applicable to them and their respective businesses, in each case where the failure to so comply individually or in the aggregate could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
14. Assets and Properties. The Borrower and each of its respective Subsidiaries has good and marketable title to all of its assets and properties (tangible and intangible, real or personal) owned by it or a valid leasehold interest in all of its leased assets (except insofar as marketability may be limited by any laws or regulations of any Governmental Authority affecting such assets), and all such assets and property are free and clear of all Liens, except Liens permitted underSection 7.3(C). Substantially all of the assets and properties owned by, leased to or used by the Borrower and/or each such Subsidiary of the Borrower are in adequate operating condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted (except to the extent that failure to be in such condition does not have or could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect).

1. Postpone or extend the Revolving Loan Termination Date, the or any other date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations or any fees or other amounts payable to such Lender (except with respect to (a) any modifications of the provisions relating to amounts, timing or application of prepayments of Loans and other Obligations, which modification shall require only the approval of the Required Lenders and (b) a waiver of the application of the default rate of interest pursuant toSection 2.9 hereof which waiver shall require only the approval of the Required Lenders).
2. Reduce the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Obligations, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (other than (i) a waiver of the application of the default rate of interest pursuant toSection 2.9 hereof, and (ii) as a result of a change in the definition of Leverage Ratio or any of the components thereof or the method of calculation thereof).

11. GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in this Agreement shall survive delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans herein contemplated so long as any principal, accrued interest, fees, or any other amount due and payable under any Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid (other than contingent reimbursement and indemnification obligations) and so long as the Revolving Loan Commitments have not been terminated.
2. Governmental Regulation. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender shall be obligated to extend credit to the Borrower in violation of any limitation or prohibition provided by any applicable statute or regulation.
3. Performance of Obligations. The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, to make any payment or perform any act required of the Borrower under any Loan Document or take any other action which the Administrative Agent in its discretion deems reasonably necessary or desirable to protect or preserve the property of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, any action to (x) effect any repairs or obtain any insurance called for by the terms of any of the Loan Documents and to pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof, and (y) pay any rents payable by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor which are more than thirty (30) days past due, or as to which the landlord has given notice of termination, under any lease. The Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to give the Borrower n otice of any action taken under thisSection 11.3 prior to the taking of such action or promptly thereafter provided the failure to give such notice shall not affect the Borrower's obligations in respect thereof. The Borrower agrees to pay the Administrative Agent, upon demand, the principal amount of all funds advanced by the Administrative Agent under thisSection 11.3, together with interest thereon at the rate from time to time applicable to Loans from the date of such advance until the outstanding principal balance thereof is paid in full. If the Borrower fails to make payment in respect of any such advance under thisSection 11.3 within one (1) Business Day after the date the Borrower receives written demand therefor from the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender and each Lender agrees that it shall thereupon make available to the Administrative Agent, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender's Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of such advance. If such funds are not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within one (1) Business Day after the Administrative Agent's demand therefor, the Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover any such amount from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day during the period commencing on the date of such demand and ending on the date such amount is received. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of any such unreimbursed advance under thisSection 11.3 shall neither relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent such other Lender's Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of such advance on the date such payment is to be made nor increase the obligation of any other Lender to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
4. Headings. Section headings in the Loan Documents are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the provisions of the Loan Documents.
5. Waiver and Release; No Novation.

Neither this Agreement nor any of the other Loan Documents shall constitute a novation of the obligations in effect on the date hereof provided for by the Prior Agr eement.
6. Several Obligations; Benefits of this Agreement. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and no Lender shall be the partner or agent of any other Lender (except to the extent to which the Administrative Agent is authorized to act as such). The failure of any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns.
7. Expenses; Indemnification.

The Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any reasonable costs and any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys' and paralegals' fees and time charges of outside attorneys and paralegals for the Administrative Agent) paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, syndication, review, amendment, modification, and administration of the Loan Documents. The Borrower also agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any costs, any internal legal charges and any out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys' and paralegals' fees and time charges of attorneys and paralegals for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, which attorneys and paralegals may be employees of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders) paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the collection of the Obligations and enforcement of the Loan Documents.

provided,however, the Borrower shall not have any obligation to an Indemnitee hereunder with respect to Indemnified Matters caused by or resulting from the willful misconduct or Gross Negligence of such Indemnitee, as determined by the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. If the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees.

3. Waiver of Certain Claims; Settlement of Claims. The Borrower further agrees to assert no claim against any of the Indemnitees or each other on any theory of liability seeking consequential, special, indirect, exemplary or punitive damages arising out of or in any way in connection with the Loan Documents or any matters governed by this Agreement. No settlement shall be entered into by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any claim, litigation, arbitration or other proceeding relating to or arising out of the transactions evidenced by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any Indemnitee is a party thereto) unless such settlement releases all Indemnitees from any and all liability with respect thereto.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Borrower and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 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 deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
11. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Agent or, if no successor Agent has been appointed, thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intention to resign. The Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by written notice received by the Administrative Agent from the Required Lenders and the Borrower (which notice from the Borrower shall be required only so long as no Default or Unmatured Default shall exist), such removal to be effective on the date specified by the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by th e Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after any resigning Administrative Agent's giving notice of resignation, then the resigning Administrative Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, each such successor Administrative Agent shall be subject to approval by the Borrower, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the two previous sentences, the Administrative Agent may at any time without the consent of the Borrower or any Lender, appoint any of its Affiliates which is a commercial bank as its successor Agent hereunder. If the Administrative Agent has resigned or been removed and no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and the Borrower shall make all payments in respect of the Obl igations to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders. No successor Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such successor Agent has accepted the appointment. Such successor Administrative Agent shall be a financial institution having capital and retained earnings of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning or removed Administrative Agent, and the resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Upon the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of thisArticle XII shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
13. SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS
1. Setoff. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if any Default occurs and is continuing, any Indebtedness from any Lender to the Borrower (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender, whether or not the Obligations, or any part hereof, shall then be due.
2. Ratable Payments. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Loans (other than payments received pursuant toSections 4.1,4.2 or4.4) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Loans held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its ratable proportion of Loans. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.
3. Application of Payments. Subject to the provisions ofSection 9.2, the Administrative Agent shall, unless otherwise specified at the direction of the Required Lenders which direction shall be consistent with the last two sentences of thisSection 13.3, apply all payments and prepayments in respect of any Obligations in the following order:
1. first, to pay interest on and then principal of any portion of the Loans which the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower;
2. second, to pay interest on and then principal of any advance made underSection 11.3 for which the Administrative Agent has not then been paid by the Borrower or reimbursed by the Lenders;
3. third, to the ratable payment of the Obligations in respect of any fees, expenses, reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Administrative Agent;
4. fourth, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees, expenses, reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank;
5. fifth, to pay interest due in respect of Loans and L/C Obligations;
6. sixth, to the ratable payment or prepayment of principal outstanding on Loans and Reimbursement Obligations in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion;
7. ninth, to the ratable payment or prepayment of Hedging Obligations under Hedging Agreements in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion;
8. tenth, to provide required cash collateral, if required pursuant toSection 3.11; and
9. eleventh, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations.

Unless otherwise designated (which designation shall only be applicable prior to the occurrence of a Default) by the Borrower, all principal payments in respect of Loans shall be applied first, to repay outstanding Floating Rate Loans and then to repay outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans, with those Eurocurrency Rate Loans which have earlier expiring Interest Periods being repaid prior to those which have later expiring Interest Periods. The order of priority set forth in thisSection 13.3 and the related provisions of this Agreement are set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank as among themselves. The order of priority set forth inclauses (iv) through(viii) of thisSection 13.3 may at any time and from time to time be changed by all of the Lenders without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by the Borrower, or any other Person. The order of priority set forth incl auses (i) through(iii) of thisSection 13.3 may be changed only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

4. Relations Among Lenders.
1. No Action Without Consent. Except with respect to the exercise of set-off rights of any Lender in accordance withSection 13.1, the proceeds of which are applied in accordance with this Agreement, each Lender agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against the Borrower or any other obligor hereunder or Loan Document, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders or, as may be provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, at the direction of the Administrative Agent.
2. Not Partners; No Liability. The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Administrative Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender. The Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on any Loan after the date such principal or interest has become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
14. BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS
1. Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that (A) the Borrower shall not have any right to assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents without the consent of all of the Lenders, and any such assignment in violation of thisSection 14.1(A) shall be null and void, and (B) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance withSection 14.3 hereof. Notwithstandingclause (B) of thisSection 14.1 orSection 14.3, (i) any Lender may at any time, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank and (ii) any Lender which is a fund or commingled investment vehicle that invests in commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business may at any time, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, pledge or assign all or any part of its rights under this Agreement to a trustee or other representative of holders of obligations owed or securities issued by such Lender as collateral to secure such obligations or securities;provided,however, that no such assignment or pledge shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent may treat each Lender as the owner of the Loans made by such Lender hereunder for all purposes hereof unless and until such Lender complies withSection 14.3 hereof in the case of an assignment thereof or, in the case of any other transfer, a written notice of the transfer is filed with the Administrative Agent. Any assignee or transferee of a Loan, Revolving Loan Commitment, L/C Interest or any other interest of a Lender under the Loan Documents agrees by acceptance thereof to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any re quest, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the owner of any Loan, shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent owner, transferee or assignee of such Loan.
2. Participations.
1. Permitted Participants; Effect. Subject to the terms set forth in thisSection 14.2, any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities ("Participants") participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Revolving Loan Commitment of such Lender, any L/C Interest of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents on a pro rata or non-pro rata basis. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender's obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the owner of all Loans made by it for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under the Loan Documents except that, for purposes ofArticle IV hereof, the Participants shall be entitled to the same rights as if they were Lenders.
2. Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents other than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Loan, Letter of Credit or Revolving Loan Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which forgives principal, interest or fees or reduces the interest rate or fees payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement with respect to any such Loan or Revolving Loan Commitment, extends the Termination Date, postpones any date fixed for any regularly-scheduled payment (but not any prepayment) of principal of, or interest or fees on, any such Loan or Revolving Loan Commitment, releases any guarantor from its obligations under a guaranty (other than pursuant to a transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement), if any, securing any such Loan or Letter of Credit (other than pursuant to a transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement).
3. Benefit of Setoff. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided inSection 13.1 hereof in respect to its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under the Loan Documents,provided that each Lender shall retain the right of setoff provided inSection 13.1 hereof with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant except to the extent such Participant exercises its right of setoff. The Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of setoff provided inSection 13.1 hereof, agrees to share with each Lender, any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance withSection 13.2 as if each Participant were a Lender.
3. Assignments.
1. Permitted Assignments.
1. Any Lender (each such assigning Lender under thisSection 14.3 being a "Seller") may, in accordance with applicable law, at any time assign to one or more banks or other entities (other than the Borrower or any of their Affiliates) ("Purchasers") that are, at the time of such assignment, entitled to receive interest on the Obligations being assigned to such institution without such payment being subject to any withholding taxes, all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Revolving Loan Commitment, all Loans owing to it, all of its participation interests in existing Letters of Credit, and its obligation to participate in additional Letters of Credit) in accordance with the provisions of thisSection 14.3. Each assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying ratable or non-pro rata percentage of all of the Seller's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Such assignment shall be sub stantially in the form ofExhibit D hereto and shall not be permitted hereunder unless such assignment is either for all of such Seller's rights and obligations under the Loan Documents or, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, involves loans and commitments in an aggregate amount of at least $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (which minimum amount (i) shall not apply to any assignment between Lenders, or to an Approved Fund or Affiliate of any Lender, and (ii) in any event may be waived by the Administrative Agent). The written consent of the Administrative Agent, and, prior to the occurrence of a Default, and only with respect to any assignment other than to another Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of any Lender, the Borrower (which consent, in each such case, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such assigning Lender or Approved Fund of such assigning Lender.
2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (each such Lender, a "Granting Bank") may grant to a conduit or special purpose funding vehicle (each such special purpose funding vehicle, a "Conduit"), identified as such in writing from time to time by the applicable Granting Bank to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Advance that such Granting Bank would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement;provided, that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any Conduit to make any Advance, (ii) if a Conduit elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Advance, the applicable Granting Bank shall be obligated to make such Advance pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of an Advance by any Conduit hereunder shall utilize the Revolving Loan Commitment of the applicable Granting Bank to the same e xtent, and as if, such Advance were made by such Granting Bank. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no Conduit shall be liable for any indemnity or other similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the applicable Granting Bank). All notices hereunder to any Granting Bank or the related Conduit, and all payments in respect of the Obligations due to such Granting Bank or the related Conduit, shall be made to such Granting Bank. In addition, each Granting Bank shall vote as a Lender hereunder without giving effect to any assignment under thisSection 14.3(A)(ii), and no Conduit shall have any vote as a Lender under this Agreement for any purpose. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any Conduit, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such Conduit any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in thisSection 14.3, any Conduit may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing or administrative fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Advances to the Granting Bank or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms ofSection 14.3(A)(i)) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such Conduit to support the funding or maintenance of Advances and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Advances to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guar antee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such Conduit. ThisSection 14.3(A)(ii) may not be amended without the written consent of each Conduit affected thereby.
2. Effect; Effective Date. Upon (i) delivery to the Administrative Agent of a notice of assignment, substantially in the form attached asAppendix I toExhibit D hereto (a "Notice of Assignment"), together with any consent required bySection 14.3(A) hereof, (ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Administrative Agent for processing such assignment, and (iii) the completion of the recording requirements inSection 14.3(C), such assignment shall become effective on the later of such date when the requirements inclauses (i),(ii), and(iii) are met or the effective date specified in such Notice of Assignment. The Notice of Assignment shall contain a representation by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans and L/C Obligations under the applicable assignment agreement are "plan assets" as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of th e Purchaser in and under the Loan Documents will not be "plan assets" under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser, if not already a Lender, shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents executed by the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto, and no further consent or action by the Borrower, the Lenders or the Administrative Agent shall be required to release the Seller with respect to the percentage of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans and Letter of Credit;provided,however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall retain the benefit of the indemnification obligations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents for the period prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to thisSection 14.3(B), the Seller, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that, to the extent notes have been issued to evidence any of the transferred Loans, replacement notes are issued to such Seller and new notes or, as appropriate, replacement notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their Revolving Loan Commitment, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.
3. The Register. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent, hereby accepts such designation, to serve as the Borrower's contractual representative solely for purposes of thisSection 14.3(C). In this connection, the Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to inSection 15.1 a copy of each assignment delivered to and accepted by it pursuant to thisSection 14.3 and a register (the "Register") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Revolving Loan Commitment of, principal amount of and interest on the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time and whether such Lender is an original Lender or the assignee of another Lender pursuant to an assignment under thisSection 14.3. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
4. Confidentiality. Subject toSection 14.5, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective representatives, consultants and advisors shall hold all nonpublic information obtained pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement and identified as such by the Borrower in accordance with such Person's customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound commercial lending or investment practices and in any event may make disclosure reasonably required by a prospective Transferee in connection with the contemplated participation or assignment or as required or requested by any Governmental Authority or any securities exchange or similar self-regulatory organization or representative thereof or pursuant to a regulatory examination or legal process, or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty's professional advisor, an d shall require any such Transferee to agree (and require any of its Transferees to agree) to comply with thisSection 14.4. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any Lender be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by the Borrower;provided,however, each prospective Transferee shall be required to agree that if it does not become a participant or assignee it shall return all materials furnished to it by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with this Agreement.
5. Dissemination of Information. The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a "Transferee") and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender's possession concerning the Borrower and its Subsidiaries;provided that prior to any such disclosure, such prospective Transferee shall agree to preserve in accordance withSection 14.4 the confidentiality of any confidential information described therein.
