Section 1.07. Timing of Payment or Performance. When the payment of any obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty or obligation is stated to be due or performance required on a day which is not a Business Day, the date of such payment or performance shall extend to the immediately succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; provided that with respect to any payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Loans, if such extension would cause any such payment to be made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

Section 1.08. Letter of Credit Amounts. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time.

Section 1.09. Pro Forma Calculations. For purposes of determining whether any action is otherwise permitted to be taken hereunder, each of the Guaranteed Net Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio and the Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be calculated as follows:

(a) In the event that the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (i) incurs, redeems, retires or extinguishes any Indebtedness or (ii) issues or redeems Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock subsequent to the commencement of the period for which such ratio is being calculated but prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of such ratio is made (a “Ratio Calculation Date”), then such ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, redemption, retirement or extinguishment of Indebtedness, or such issuance or redemption of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.

(b) For purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business made (or committed to be made pursuant to a definitive agreement) during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the relevant Ratio Calculation Date, and other operational changes that the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has determined to make and/or made during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with such Ratio Calculation Date shall be calculated on a pro forma basis in accordance with GAAP assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, discontinued operations and other operational changes had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period. If since the beginning of such period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into

the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, discontinued operation or operational change, in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then such ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation, discontinued operation or operational change had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.

(c) For purposes of this Section 1.09, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any Investment, Acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, discontinued operation or operational change, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower. Any such pro forma calculation may include adjustments appropriate, in the reasonable determination of the Borrower as set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, to reflect (i) operating expense reductions and other operating improvements or synergies reasonably expected to be realizable from any acquisition, disposition, amalgamation, merger or operational change (including, to the extent applicable, from the Transactions) and (ii) all adjustments of the nature used in connection with the calculation of “EBITDA” as set forth in footnote (6) to the “Summary Consolidated Historical and Pro Forma Financial Data” under “Summary” in the offering memorandum for the New Senior Notes to the extent such adjustments, without duplication, continue to be applicable to such four-quarter period; provided that such operating expense reductions and other operating improvements or synergies are reasonably identifiable and factually supportable and otherwise comply with the limitations set forth in the definition of “EBITDA”.

Section 1.10. Accounting Terms. (a) Generally. All accounting terms not specifically or completely defined herein shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial data (including financial ratios and other financial calculations) required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity with, GAAP applied on a consistent basis, as in effect from time to time, applied in a manner consistent with that used in preparing the audited financial statements described in Section 3.05, except as otherwise specifically prescribed herein. All amounts used for purposes of financial calculations required to be made shall be without duplication.

(b) Issues Related to GAAP. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Borrower or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as reasonably requested hereunder a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.

Section 1.11. Certifications. All certifications to be made hereunder by an officer or representative of a Loan Party shall be made by such person in his or her capacity solely as an

officer or a representative of such Loan Party, on such Loan Party’s behalf and not in such Person’s individual capacity.

Section 1.12. Effect of Restatement.

(a) The effectiveness of this Agreement shall not constitute a novation of any Obligations owing under the Original Credit Agreement. All Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding under the Original Credit Agreement and all accrued and unpaid amounts owing by any Loan Party pursuant to the Original Credit Agreement shall continue to be outstanding and owing hereunder. Any payment or performance of any Obligation under the Original Credit Agreement or any Obligation described in this Agreement during any period prior to the Third Restatement Effective Date shall constitute payment or performance of such Obligation under this Agreement. Any usage under any “basket” set forth in any covenant or exception in the Original Credit Agreement shall be included in the determination of baskets under this Agreement.

(b) After giving effect to this Agreement and the modifications effectuated thereby, each reference to the Credit Agreement in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended and restated on the Third Restatement Effective Date (as such Agreement may be subsequently amended, restated, amended and restated, modified or otherwise supplemented from time to time).

Within the limits set forth in this clause (c) and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

Section 2.02. Loans. (a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). For the avoidance of doubt, all Revolving Loans made and other Revolving Credit Exposure incurred under the Revolving Credit Facility will be made or incurred, as applicable, by all Revolving Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages until the Revolving Credit Maturity Date for the relevant Class of Revolving Credit Commitments; thereafter, all Revolving Loans made and other Revolving Credit Exposure incurred under the Revolving Credit Facility will be made by the remaining Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages (after giving effect to the termination of Revolving Credit Commitments on the applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date). Except for Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.02(f) and subject to Section 2.22, the Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than the lesser of (i) the Minimum Threshold or (ii) equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.

(b) Subject to Sections 2.02(e), 2.08 and 2.15, all Loans under the First-Lien Facilities (other than Swingline Loans), and all Second-Lien Term Loans, shall be made as ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans; provided, however, that all such Loans initially shall be made as ABR Loans, unless, subject to Section 2.15, the Borrowing Request specifies that all or a portion thereof shall be Eurodollar Loans and all Swingline Loans shall be dollar denominated and shall be made as ABR Loans. Each Lender may at its option make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in

accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than 15 Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any time.

(c) Except with respect to Loans deemed made pursuant to Sections 2.01(a)(i), 2.02(f) and, if applicable, Section 2.25, and subject to Sections 2.03 and 2.22, each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account in New York City as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than 11:00 a.m. and the Administrative Agent shall promptly wire transfer the amounts so received to an account designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met or waived, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (c) above and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on written demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the Loans comprising such Borrowing at the time and (ii) in the case of such Lender, for the first such day, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and for each day thereafter, the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage for ABR Revolving Loans of the relevant Class. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement and (x) the relevant Borrower’s obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.02(d) shall cease and (y) if the Borrower pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, the amount so paid shall constitute a repayment of such Borrowing by such amount.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Eurodollar Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date applicable to the Loans comprising such Eurodollar Borrowing.

(f) If the relevant Issuing Bank shall not have received from the Borrower the payment required to be made by Section 2.23(e) within the time specified in such Section, such Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the L/C Disbursement and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such L/C Disbursement and its Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by

wire transfer of immediately available funds in dollars to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. on such date (or, if such Revolving Credit Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 (noon) on any day, not later than 10:00 a.m. on the immediately following Business Day), an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement as determined above (it being understood that such amount shall be deemed to constitute an ABR Revolving Loan of such Lender and such payment shall be deemed to have reduced the L/C Exposure), and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the relevant Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.23(e) prior to the time that any Revolving Credit Lender makes any payment pursuant to this paragraph (f); any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made such payments and to such Issuing Bank, as their interests may appear. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, such Lender and the Borrower agree to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with this paragraph to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the Revolving Loans of the relevant Class pursuant to Section 2.06(a), and (ii) in the case of such Lender, for the first such day, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and for each day thereafter, the interest rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans.

(g) In the event that the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion that (i) the amount of Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans to be made (or deemed to be made) by a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt and processing of an election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Third Restatement Amendment or (ii) the allocation of Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans to a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt and processing of an election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Third Restatement Amendment, then the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such affected Lender may (and hereby are authorized to), in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (each, a “Corrective Conversion Amendment”) within 15 days following the Third Restatement Effective Date, which Corrective Conversion Amendment shall (i) provide for the conversion of Existing First-Lien Term Loans, in such amount as is required to cause such Lender to hold Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans into which such Existing First-Lien Term Loans were initially converted, in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation of the applicable Loans to which it was entitled under the terms of the Third Restatement Agreement in the absence of such error, (ii) be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such Lender may agree and (iii) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section.

(h) In the event that the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion that (i) the amount of Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans to be made (or deemed to be made) by a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt and processing of an election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Second Amendment, (ii) the allocation of Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans to a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt and processing of an election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Second Amendment or (iii) the Second Amendment Effective Date is any date other than February 28, 2013, then the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such affected Lender may (and hereby are authorized to), in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (each, a “Second Amendment Corrective Conversion Amendment”) within 15 days following the Second Amendment Effective Date, which Second Amendment Corrective Conversion Amendment shall (i) provide for the conversion of Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans, Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans and/or First-Lien Incremental Term Loans (as applicable), in such amount as is required to cause such Lender to hold Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans into which such Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans, Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans and/or First-Lien Incremental Term Loans (as applicable) were initially converted, in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation of the applicable Loans to which it was entitled under the terms of the Second Amendment in the absence of such error, (ii) amend the definition of the “Second Amendment Effective Date” to reflect the definition of such term in the Second Amendment, (iii) be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such Lender may agree and (iv) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section.

(i) In the event that the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion that (i) the amount of Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans or Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loans to be made (or converted from Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans or Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans, as applicable) by a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt and processing of an election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Third Amendment, (ii) the allocation of Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans or Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loans to a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt and processing of an election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Third Amendment, then the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such affected Lender may (and hereby are authorized to), in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (each, a “Third Amendment Corrective Conversion Amendment”) within 15 days following the Third Amendment Effective Date, which Third Amendment Corrective Conversion Amendment shall (i) provide for the conversion of Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans in such amount as is required to cause such Lender to hold Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans into which such Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans were initially converted, in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation of the applicable Loans to which it was entitled under the terms of the Third Amendment in the absence

of such error, (ii) provide for the conversion of Tranche A Second-Lien Term Loans in such amount as is required to cause such Lender to hold Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loans into which such Tranche A Second-Lien Term Loans were initially converted, in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation of the applicable Loans to which it was entitled under the terms of the Third Amendment in the absence of such error, (iii) be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such Lender may agree and (iv) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section.

In order to request a Borrowing (other than a Swingline Loan or a deemed Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i), 2.02(f) or, if applicable, pursuant to Section 2.25, in each case, as to which this Section 2.03 shall not apply), the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing not later than 12:30 p.m. three Business Days before a proposed Borrowing and (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:30 p.m. one Business Day before a proposed Borrowing. Subject to Section 2.14, each such telephonic request shall be irrevocable, shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or fax to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request and shall specify the following information: (i) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a First-Lien Term Loan Borrowing, a Second-Lien Term Loan Borrowing or a Revolving Credit Borrowing, and, if applicable, the relevant Class thereof and whether such Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing; (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the number and location of the account to which funds are to be disbursed; (iv) the amount of such Borrowing; and (v) if such Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods with respect thereto and (vi) the Revolving Credit Exposure (after giving effect to the proposed Borrowing); provided, however, that notwithstanding any contrary specification in any Borrowing Request, each requested Borrowing shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 2.02. If no Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.03 (and the contents thereof), and of each Lender’s portion of the requested Borrowing.

Section 2.04. Evidence of Debt; Repayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, (x) the principal amount of each First-Lien Term Loan and each Second-Lien Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.11 and (y) on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date for any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Class made by such Lender to the Borrower. The Borrower hereby promises to pay to the Swingline Lender on the relevant Revolving Credit Maturity Date for any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan made hereunder.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from

each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

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

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, however, 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 obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Borrower shall have right to review the entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to clause (c) from time to time upon reasonable prior notice during normal business hours.

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it hereunder be evidenced by a promissory note in substantially the form of Exhibit G-1, Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, as applicable, with appropriate insertions and deletions (each, a “Note”). In such event, the Borrower promptly shall execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender and its permitted registered assigns. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event any Lender shall request and receive such a Note, the interests represented by such Note shall at all times (including after any assignment of all or part of such interests pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the payee named therein or its registered assigns or successors.

Section 2.05. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay, with respect to each Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, to each Revolving Credit Lender of such Class, through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year, commencing December 31, 2007, and on each date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein, a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) equal to 0.375% per annum on the daily unused amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the Closing Date or ending with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated); provided any Commitment Fee accrued with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender, except to the extent that such Commitment Fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and provided, further, that no Commitment Fee shall accrue on the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.

(d) Each Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loan which was converted from an Existing First-Lien Term Loan on the Third Restatement Effective Date shall continue to be entitled to all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Existing First-Lien Term Loan from which such Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loan was converted up to but excluding the Third Restatement Effective Date; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, all such Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans outstanding on the Third Restatement Effective Date (and any other Loans that are converted to or exchanged for a new Class of Loans hereunder) that were Eurodollar Loans immediately prior to the Third Restatement Effective Date (or such conversion or exchange, as applicable) will have initial Interest Periods ending on the same dates as the Interest Periods applicable to the Existing First-Lien Term Loans outstanding on the Third Restatement Effective Date (or the Loans which were so converted or exchanged), as applicable and will bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate applicable to such Interest Periods until the expiration thereof; provided that it is understood that the increased margin applicable to such Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans following such conversion shall apply on and after the Third Restatement Effective Date. Each Tranche A First-Lien Term Loan which was converted from an Original Extended First-Lien Term Loan, Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loan or Incremental First-Lien Term Loan on the Second Amendment Effective Date shall continue to be entitled to all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Original Extended First-Lien Term Loan, Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loan or Incremental First-Lien Term Loan (as applicable) from which such Tranche A First-Lien Term Loan was converted up to but excluding the Second Amendment Effective Date; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, all such Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans outstanding on the Second Amendment Effective Date (and any other Loans that are converted to or exchanged for a new Class of Loans hereunder) that were Eurodollar Loans immediately prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date (or such conversion or exchange, as applicable) will have initial Interest Periods ending on the same dates as the Interest Periods applicable to the Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans, Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans or Incremental First-Lien Term Loans outstanding on the Second Amendment Effective Date (or the Loans which were so converted or exchanged), as applicable and will bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate applicable to such Interest Periods until the expiration thereof; provided that it is understood that the reduced margin applicable to such Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans following such conversion shall apply on and after the Second Amendment Effective Date. Each Tranche B First-Lien Term Loan which was converted from a Tranche A First-Lien Term Loan on the Third Amendment Effective Date shall continue to be entitled to all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Tranche A First-Lien Term Loan from which such Tranche B First-Lien Term Loan was converted up to but excluding the Third Amendment Effective Date; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, all such Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans outstanding on the Third Amendment Effective Date (and any other Loans that are converted to a new Class of Loans hereunder) that were Eurodollar Loans immediately prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date (or such conversion, as applicable) will have initial Interest Periods ending on the same dates as the Interest Periods applicable to the Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans outstanding on the Third Amendment Effective Date (or the Loans which were so

converted), as applicable and will bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate applicable to such Interest Periods until the expiration thereof; provided that it is understood that the reduced margin applicable to such Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans following such conversion shall apply on and after the Third Amendment Effective Date. Each Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loan which was converted from a Tranche A Second-Lien Term Loan on the Third Amendment Effective Date shall continue to be entitled to all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Tranche A Second-Lien Term Loan from which such Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loan was converted up to but excluding the Third Amendment Effective Date; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, all such Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loans outstanding on the Third Amendment Effective Date (and any other Loans that are converted to a new Class of Loans hereunder) that were Eurodollar Loans immediately prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date (or such conversion, as applicable) will have initial Interest Periods ending on the same dates as the Interest Periods applicable to the Tranche A Second-Lien Term Loans outstanding on the Third Amendment Effective Date (or the Loans which were so converted), as applicable and will bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate applicable to such Interest Periods until the expiration thereof; provided that it is understood that the reduced margin applicable to such Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loans following such conversion shall apply on and after the Third Amendment Effective Date.

(e) Interest, including interest payable pursuant to Section 2.07, shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days (other than computations of interest for ABR Loans which shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 day, as applicable) and shall be calculated from and including the date of the relevant Borrowing to, but excluding, the date of repayment thereof. Interest on each Loan shall be payable on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such Loan, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.07. Default Interest. If an Event of Default under Section 7.01(b) or (c) shall have occurred and shall be continuing, by acceleration or otherwise, then, upon the request of the Required Lenders until the related defaulted amount shall have been paid in full, to the extent permitted by law, such overdue amount shall bear interest (after as well as before judgment), payable on written demand, (a) in the case of principal of a Loan, at the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.06 plus 2.00% per annum and (b) in all other cases, at a rate per annum equal to the rate that would be applicable to (x) an ABR Revolving Loan that is a New Revolving Loan plus 2.00% per annum if such obligation relates to Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans, Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans, First-Lien Incremental Term Loans, Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans, Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans or New Revolving Loans or if such obligation is not attributable specifically to any particular Class of Loans (without regard to whether such Revolving Loans have been repaid in full) or (y) a Tranche A Second-Lien Term Loan or a Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loan plus 2.00% per annum if such obligation relates to Tranche A Second-Lien Term Loans or Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loans (as applicable).

Section 2.08. Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined that deposits in the principal amounts and denominations of the Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in the London interbank market, or that the rates at which such deposits are being offered in the London interbank market will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any participating Lender of making or maintaining its Eurodollar Loan during such Interest Period, or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period or (ii) the Required Lenders of any Class of Loans notify the Administrative Agent that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any Interest Period will not adequately reflect the cost to the Lenders in such Class of making or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or fax notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the Administrative Agent shall have advised the Borrower and the participating Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (which the Administrative Agent agrees to give promptly after such circumstances no longer exist), each affected Eurodollar Loan shall automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period for such Loan, convert into a ABR Loan and the obligations of the Lenders to make Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans or to convert Alternate Base Rate Loans into Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the Required Lenders of such affected Class of Loans have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

Each determination by the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.08 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) (i) The Other Term Commitments of any Class or Series shall automatically terminate upon the conversion or refinancing, as the case may be, of all or a portion of the relevant Term Loans as provided in the relevant Refinancing Amendment.

(ii) On the Maturity Date of any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments will terminate and the Revolving Credit Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class will have no further obligation to make Revolving Loans, fund its portion of L/C Disbursements pursuant to Section 2.23(d) or purchase or fund participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.22(e), in each case, solely in respect of such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (x) the foregoing will not release any such Revolving Credit Lender from any such obligation to fund Revolving Loans, its portion of L/C Disbursements or participations in Swingline Loans that was required to be performed on or prior to the Maturity Date of such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) the foregoing will not release any such Revolving Credit Lender from any such obligation to fund its portion of L/C Disbursements or participations in Swingline Loans if on such Maturity Date any Specified Default or event, act or condition which with notice on lapse of time or both would constitute a Specified Default exists until such Specified Default or event, act or condition ceases to exist. Unless clause (y) to the prior proviso to the immediately succeeding sentence is applicable, upon the relevant Revolving Credit Maturity Date of such Class or Series, all outstanding Swingline Loans and L/C Exposure shall be deemed to be outstanding with respect to the remaining Revolving Credit Commitments (so long

as after giving effect to such reallocation, the Revolving Credit Exposure of each remaining Revolving Credit Lender does not exceed such Lender’s remaining Revolving Credit Commitment). On and after the Maturity Date of any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, the remaining Revolving Lenders (and so long as clause (y) to the proviso to the second immediate sentence is applicable, to the Revolving Lenders in the maturing Class) will be required, in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages, to fund L/C Disbursements pursuant to Section 2.23(e) arising on or after such date and fund participations in Swingline Loans at the request of the Swingline Lender on and after such date, regardless of whether any Default existed on the Maturity Date of the then-terminating Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that the Revolving Credit Exposure of each remaining Revolving Credit Lender does not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. In the event that a Specified Default or event, act or condition which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a Specified Default exists on a Maturity Date of a Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, until such Specified Default or event, act or condition ceases to exist, for purposes of determining a Revolving Credit Lenders’ Pro Rata Percentage for purposes of Section 2.23(d) or Section 2.22(e), such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment of the relevant Class shall be deemed to be the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender immediately prior to the termination thereof on such Maturity Date.

(iii) The L/C Commitment of any Issuing Bank shall automatically terminate on the earlier to occur of (x) the date set forth in the definition of L/C Commitment for such Issuing Bank and (y) the latest Revolving Credit Maturity Date, unless otherwise agreed by such Issuing Bank and the Borrower.

(b) Upon at least three Business Days’ prior written or fax notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Swingline Commitment; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 thereafter and (ii) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure then in effect (after giving effect to any repayment or prepayment effected simultaneously therewith). Any notice given by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.09(b) shall be irrevocable; provided that any such notice delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other financing arrangements, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

(c) Each reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder (other than reductions made pursuant to clause (a)(ii) above, terminations made pursuant to Section 2.13(e) or Section 2.21(a)(y), reductions in accordance with Section 2.13(e), or the implementation of Other Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to Section 2.25) shall be made ratably among all Classes of Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Revolving Credit Lenders and within each Class, ratably among the Revolving Credit Lenders of such Class in accordance with their respective applicable Revolving Credit Commitments for such Class; provided that none of the Swingline

Commitment or the L/C Commitment shall be reduced unless the Total Revolving Credit Commitment is reduced to an amount less than the Swingline Commitment or the Letter of Credit Commitment, as applicable, then in effect (and then only to the extent of such deficit except to the extent the Borrower expressly specifies such commitment reduction). The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the affected Revolving Credit Lenders, on the date of each termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment of a given Class, the Commitment Fees on the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class so terminated or reduced accrued to but excluding the date of such termination or reduction.

Section 2.10. Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time upon prior written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) to the Administrative Agent (i) not later than 12:30 p.m., one Business Day prior to conversion, to convert any dollar denominated Eurodollar Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing and (ii) not later than 12:30 p.m., three Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, to convert any ABR Borrowing into a Eurodollar Borrowing, to continue any Eurodollar Borrowing as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period, subject in each case to the following:

(i) each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Loans comprising the converted or continued Borrowing;

(ii) if less than all of the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing shall satisfy the limitations specified in Sections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b) regarding the principal amount and maximum number of Borrowings of the relevant Type;

(iii) each conversion shall be effected by each Lender and the Administrative Agent recording, for the account of such Lender, the Type of such Loan resulting from such conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an equivalent principal amount; accrued interest on any Eurodollar Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the Borrower at the time of conversion; and

(iv) if any Eurodollar Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall pay, promptly upon written demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16.

Each notice pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable (subject to Sections 2.08 and 2.15) and shall refer to this Agreement and specify (w) the identity and amount of the Borrowing that the Borrower requests be converted or continued, (x) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing or an Alternate Base Rate Borrowing, (y) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (z) if such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified

in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.10 and of each Lender’s portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If the Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be converted into an Alternate Base Rate Borrowing.

(b) As provided in Section 2.06(d)(i), notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans which are converted from Existing First-Lien Term Loans on the Third Restatement Effective Date (and any other Loans that are converted to or exchanged for a new Class of Loans hereunder) that were Eurodollar Loans immediately prior to the Third Restatement Effective Date (or such conversion or exchange, as applicable) will have initial Interest Periods ending on the same dates as the Interest Periods applicable to the Existing First-Lien Term Loans outstanding on the Third Restatement Effective Date (or the Loans which were so converted or exchanged), as applicable and will bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate applicable to such Interest Periods until the expiration thereof; provided that it is understood that the increased margin applicable to the Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans subject to such conversion shall apply on and after the Third Restatement Effective Date. As provided in Section 2.06(d), notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans which are converted from Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans, Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans or Incremental First-Lien Term Loans on the Second Amendment Effective Date (and any other Loans that are converted to or exchanged for a new Class of Loans hereunder) that were Eurodollar Loans immediately prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date (or such conversion or exchange, as applicable) will have initial Interest Periods ending on the same dates as the Interest Periods applicable to the Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans, Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans or Incremental First-Lien Term Loans (as applicable) outstanding on the Second Amendment Effective Date (or the Loans which were so converted or exchanged), as applicable and will bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate applicable to such Interest Periods until the expiration thereof; provided that it is understood that the reduced margin applicable to the Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans subject to such conversion shall apply on and after the Second Amendment Effective Date. As provided in Section 2.06(d), notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans which are converted from Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans on the Third Amendment Effective Date (and any other Loans that are converted to a new Class of Loans hereunder) that were Eurodollar Loans immediately prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date (or such conversion, as applicable) will have initial Interest Periods ending on the same dates as the Interest Periods applicable to the Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans outstanding on the Third Amendment Effective Date (or the Loans which were so converted), as applicable and will bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate applicable to such Interest Periods until the expiration thereof; provided that it is understood that the reduced margin applicable to the Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans subject to such conversion shall apply on and after the Third Amendment Effective Date. As provided in Section 2.06(d), notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loans which are converted from Tranche A Second-Lien Term Loans on the Third Amendment Effective Date (and any other Loans that are

converted to a new Class of Loans hereunder) that were Eurodollar Loans immediately prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date (or such conversion, as applicable) will have initial Interest Periods ending on the same dates as the Interest Periods applicable to the Tranche A Second-Lien Term Loans outstanding on the Third Amendment Effective Date (or the Loans which were so converted), as applicable and will bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate applicable to such Interest Periods until the expiration thereof; provided that it is understood that the reduced margin applicable to the Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loans subject to such conversion shall apply on and after the Third Amendment Effective Date.

As a result of the application of the prepayment described in the preceding sentence, no amortization payments shall be payable on Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans or Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans pursuant to clause (i) above prior to the First-Lien Term Loan Maturity Date.

(b) In addition to any other mandatory repayments pursuant to this Section 2.11, the Borrower shall be required to make, with respect to each Incremental First-Lien

Term Loan facility, to the extent then outstanding, scheduled amortized repayments of Incremental First-Lien Term Loans on the dates and in the principal amounts set forth in the respective Incremental Amendment (each such repayment, as the same may be reduced as provided in Sections 2.12(b) or 2.13(e), “Scheduled Repayments”); provided that, if any Incremental First-Lien Term Loans are incurred which will be added to (and form part of) an existing tranche of Incremental First-Lien Term Loans, then each Scheduled Repayment of such tranche to be made after such increase becomes effective shall be increased by an amount equal to (i) the aggregate principal amount of the increase in the Incremental First-Lien Term Loans of such tranche pursuant to Section 2.24 multiplied by (ii) an amount equal to (x) such Scheduled Repayment divided by (y) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Incremental First-Lien Term Loans of such tranche, in each case, immediately prior to giving effect to the increase in Incremental First-Lien Term Loans of such tranche pursuant to Section 2.24.

(c) To the extent not previously paid, (i) all Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans shall be due and payable on the First-Lien Term Loan Maturity Date for the Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans, (ii) all Second-Lien Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Second-Lien Term Loan Maturity Date, (iii) all First-Lien Incremental Term Loans shall be due and payable on the First-Lien Term Loan Maturity Date for the First-Lien Incremental Term Loans, (iv) all Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans shall be due and payable on the First-Lien Term Loan Maturity Date for the Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans, (v) all Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans shall be due and payable on the First-Lien Term Loan Maturity Date for the Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans, (vi) all Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans shall be due and payable on the First-Lien Term Loan Maturity Date for the Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans and (vii) each other Class of Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date for such Class of Term Loans, together, in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of payment.

(d) All repayments pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be subject to Section 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.

Section 2.12. Optional Prepayment. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part upon prior written or fax notice by the Borrower (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) to the Administrative Agent, not later than 12:30 p.m., three Business Days prior to such optional prepayment in the case of Eurodollar Loans and not later than 12:30 p.m., one Business Day prior to such prepayment in the case of ABR Loans; provided, however, that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than the Minimum Threshold and (ii) no optional prepayment of any Second-Lien Term Loans shall be permitted unless such prepayment is permitted under Section 6.03, and to the extent that such optional prepayment is being made pursuant to Section 6.03(a), such optional prepayment shall be allowed to the extent that the Loan Parties are permitted to make any principal payments on Subordinated Indebtedness (as defined in the New Senior Notes Documentation (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement)) under Section 4.7 of the New Senior Notes Documentation (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement) to the extent this limitation on optional prepayments is required by Section 4.9 of the New Senior Notes Documentation (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement).

(b) Optional prepayments of Term Loans under any Term Loan Facility shall be applied ratably among each Class of Term Loans (other than (x) Second-Lien Term Loans, in the case of optional prepayments of First-Lien Term Loans and (y) First-Lien Term Loans, in the case of optional prepayments of Second-Lien Term Loans, to the extent permitted under Section 6.03) then outstanding and against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of such Term Loan Facility under Section 2.11(a) or (b), as applicable, in the manner specified by the Borrower or, if not so specified on or prior to the date of such optional prepayment, in direct order of maturity; provided that (i) at any time the Borrower may, at its option, direct that any voluntary prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12 be applied (in which case it shall be applied) to then outstanding Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans, Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans, First-Lien Incremental Term Loans and any newly created Class of Term Loans with the earliest Maturity Date (ratably among such Classes with an identical Maturity Date) and (ii) it is understood and agreed that this clause (b) may be modified as expressly provided in Section 2.25 in connection with a Refinancing Amendment; provided that it is understood and agreed that such modification may not alter the treatment of the Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans, the Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans, the First-Lien Incremental Term Loans, the Tranche A First-Lien Term Loans or the Tranche B First-Lien Term Loans as set forth in the foregoing proviso.

(c) Optional prepayments of Revolving Loans shall be applied ratably among each Class of Revolving Loans then outstanding, except any prepayment with a corresponding reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments under Section 2.09(a)(ii), in which case the Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Loans associated with the Revolving Credit Commitment reduction as set forth in Section 2.13(a)(i).

(d) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein; provided that if a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of any Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09. All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be subject to Sections 2.16, and 2.05(d) but otherwise without premium or penalty except as provided in Section 2.12(e). All Eurodollar Loan prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment.

(e) In the event that the Tranche A Second-Lien Term Loans are prepaid or repaid in whole or in part by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.12(a) or Section 2.13 prior to February 28, 2015, the Borrower shall pay to the Second-Lien Lenders holding such Tranche A Second-Lien Term Loans, a prepayment premium on the amount so prepaid as follows: (i) 3.00% with respect to the principal amount prepaid or repaid if such repayment occurs on or after the Second Restatement Effective Date but prior to February 28, 2013, (ii) 2.00% with respect to the principal amount prepaid or repaid if such repayment occurs on or after February 28, 2013 but prior to February 28, 2014 and (iii) 1.00% with respect to the principal amount prepaid or repaid if such repayment occurs on or after February 28, 2014 but prior to February 28, 2015; provided that no such prepayment premium under this Section 2.12(e) shall be payable pursuant to or any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.13(h). In the event that the Tranche B Second-Lien

Term Loans are prepaid or repaid in whole or in part by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.12(a) or Section 2.13 prior to the first anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Tranche B Second-Lien Term Loan Lenders a prepayment premium on the amount so prepaid equal to 1.00% with respect to the principal amount prepaid or repaid; provided that no such prepayment premium under this Section 2.12(e) shall be payable pursuant to or any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.13(h).

Section 2.13. Mandatory Prepayments. (a) (i) The Borrower shall, on the date of termination of any Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Class, repay or prepay all of its outstanding Revolving Credit Borrowings of such Series or Class.

(ii) If for any reason, at any time during the ten (10) Business Day period immediately preceding the Maturity Date for any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, (x) the Allocable Revolving Share of the Revolving Credit Exposure attributable to L/C Exposure of Revolving Credit Lenders of such Class and Swingline Exposure of such Class exceeds (y) the amount of the remaining Total Revolving Credit Commitments minus the remaining Revolving Credit Lenders’ Allocable Revolving Share of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure at such time, then the Borrower shall promptly prepay or cause to be promptly prepaid Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans and/or cash collateralize the L/C Exposure in an aggregate amount necessary to eliminate such excess; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to cash collateralize the L/C Exposure pursuant to this sentence unless after the prepayment in full of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans such excess has not been eliminated. For purposes of this Section 2.13(a)(ii), “Allocable Revolving Share” shall mean, at any time with respect to the Total Revolving Credit Commitments or the Revolving Credit Lenders of any Class, the percentage of the Revolving Credit Commitments represented at such time by the Total Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class.

(iii) If, after giving effect to any partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments, then the Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, repay or prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings pro rata among the then existing Classes of Revolving Credit Commitments unless such a repayment is made on the Maturity Date of a given Class, in which case such repayments shall be applied first to Revolving Credit Commitments of such maturing Class or Swingline Loans (or a combination thereof) and, after the Revolving Credit Borrowings or Swingline Loans shall have been repaid or prepaid in full, replace or cause to be canceled (or provide an L/C Backstop or make other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Bank with respect to) Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(b) Not later than the tenth Business Day following the receipt by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Prepayment Asset Sale or Property Loss Event, the Borrower shall apply an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect thereto (subject to the restrictions set forth herein) to make an Offer to Repay Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(g); provided, however, that, if (A) prior to the date any such Offer to Repay Term Loans is required to be made, the Borrower notifies the

Administrative Agent of its intent to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds in assets of a kind then used or usable in the business of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (including any Related Business Assets) and (B) no Event of Default under clause (b), (c), (g) or (h) of Section 7.01 (each, a “Specified Default”) shall have occurred and shall be continuing at the time of such notice or at the time of such proposed reinvestment (unless, in the case of such Specified Default, such reinvestment is made pursuant to a binding commitment entered into at a time when no Specified Default was continuing), then the Borrower shall not be required to make an Offer to Repay Term Loans hereunder in respect of such Net Cash Proceeds to the extent that such Net Cash Proceeds are so reinvested within 365 days after the date of receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds (or, if within such 365 day period, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries enters into a binding commitment to so reinvest in such Net Cash Proceeds, and such Net Cash Proceeds are so reinvested within 180 days after such binding commitment is so entered into), provided, however, that (I) if any Net Cash Proceeds are not reinvested or applied as a repayment on or prior to the last day of the applicable application period, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within 10 Business Days to make an Offer to Repay Term Loans as set forth above (without regard to the immediately preceding proviso) and (II) if, as a result of any Prepayment Asset Sale or Property Loss Event, the Borrower would be required to make an “offer to purchase” the New Senior Notes pursuant to the terms of the New Senior Notes Documentation or any other Material Indebtedness, in any such case prior to the expiry of the foregoing reinvestment or repayment periods, the Borrower shall apply the relevant percentage of such Net Cash Proceeds as required above by this paragraph (b) to make an Offer to Repay Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(g) on the day immediately preceding the date of such required “offer to purchase” (without regard to the immediately preceding proviso).

(c) No later than the tenth Business Day following the delivery of the Section 5.04 Financials under Section 5.04(a) (commencing with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008), the Borrower shall prepay outstanding First-Lien Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the applicable ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year then ended over (ii) the aggregate principal amount of First-Lien Term Loans and Revolving Loans (to the extent accompanied by a permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments) prepaid pursuant to Section 2.12 during such fiscal year or after the end of such fiscal year and on or prior to the date such payment is required to be made (without duplication), in each case to the extent such prepayments are not funded with the proceeds of long-term Indebtedness (other than revolving Indebtedness).

(d) In the event that (i) the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness (other than any cash proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 6.01), the Borrower shall no later than the fifth Business Day next following the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay outstanding First-Lien Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e), and (ii) the Borrower incurs or issues any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness or Replacement Term Loans (in either case, other than solely by means of extending or renewing then existing Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness or Replacement Term Loans, as applicable, without resulting in any Net Cash Proceeds), the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans and/or if the Borrower so elects, Revolving Loans (with a corresponding reduction in Revolving

Credit Commitments) in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness within 3 Business Days after such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is incurred or issued; provided, that (subject to the proviso set forth in clause (iii) of the definition of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness and to the terms of Section 9.08(d)) each prepayment of Loans required by this clause (ii) shall be applied (A) first, to the Class or Classes of Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, as directed by the Borrower, with the earliest Maturity Date (ratably among such Classes, if multiple Classes exist with the same Maturity Date), until all such Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, of such Class or Classes have been repaid or terminated in full and (B) thereafter, to the successive Class or Classes of Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, with the then next earliest Maturity Date (ratably among such Classes, if multiple Classes exist with the same Maturity Date), and so on, until 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds from such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness has been applied to the Loans and/or to reduce Revolving Credit Commitments as required by this clause (ii).

(e) All prepayments of Term Loans required by this Section 2.13 shall be applied (x) ratably to each Class of Term Loans then outstanding (other than as required or permitted pursuant to clause (d)(ii) above); provided that to the extent an Event of Default then exists, such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.17(b), and (y) against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of each Class or Series of Term Loans in direct order of maturity. Repayments of Loans and reductions of Revolving Credit Commitments required to be made by clause (d)(ii) above shall be applied to the Class or Classes of Loans required by such clause. Each of the foregoing application provisions may be modified as expressly provided in Section 2.25 in connection with a Refinancing Amendment.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.13 or elsewhere in this Agreement including without limitation in Section 9.08, the Borrower shall have the option in its sole discretion to give the Lenders with outstanding Term Loans of a given Class the option to waive their pro rata share of a mandatory prepayment of Term Loans of such Class which is to be made pursuant to (c), (d) or (i) (each such repayment a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) upon the terms and provisions set forth in this Section 2.13(f). If the Borrower elects to exercise the option referred to in the immediately preceding sentence the Borrower shall give to the Administrative Agent written notice of its intention to give the Lenders the right to waive a Waivable Mandatory Prepayment including in such notice the aggregate amount of such proposed prepayment not later than 12:30 p.m. three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed prepayment which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly forward to all Term Loan Lenders of such Class of Term Loan indicating in such notice the amount of such prepayment to be applied to each such Lender’s outstanding Term Loans of such Class. The Borrower’s offer to permit the relevant Term Loan Lenders to waive any such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment may apply to all or part of such prepayment, provided that any offer to waive part of such prepayment must be made ratably to the Term Loan Lenders of such Class of Term Loan (based on the amount of Term Loans of such Class on the date of prepayment). In the event that any such Term Loan Lender desires to waive its pro rata share of such Lender’s right to receive any such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment in whole or in part such Lender shall so advise the Administrative Agent no later than 4:00 p.m. on the date which is two Business Days after the date of such notice from the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Borrower thereof which notice shall

also include the amount such Lender desires to receive in respect of such prepayment. If any Term Loan Lender does not reply to the Administrative Agent within such two Business Day period such Lender will be deemed not to have waived any part of such prepayment. If any Term Loan Lender does not specify an amount it wishes to receive such Lender will be deemed to have accepted 100% of its share of such prepayment. In the event that any such Lender waives all or part of its share of any such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment the Borrower shall retain 100% of the amount so waived by such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above if one or more Term Loan Lenders of a given Class waives its right to receive all or any part of any Waivable Mandatory Prepayment but less than all the Lenders with outstanding Term Loans of such Class waive in full their right to receive 100% of the total Waivable Mandatory Prepayment otherwise required with respect to the Term Loans of such Class, then the amount actually applied to the repayment of Term Loans of Lenders of such Class which have waived all or any part of their right to receive 100% of such prepayment shall be applied to each then outstanding Borrowing of Term Loans on a pro rata basis so that each Lender with outstanding Term Loans of such Class shall after giving effect to the application of the respective repayment maintain the same percentage as determined for such Lender but not the same percentage that the Other Term Loan Lenders of such Class of Term Loans hold and not the same percentage held by such Lender prior to prepayment of each Borrowing of Term Loans of such Class which remains outstanding after giving effect to such application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary Term Loan Lenders shall not have the right to waive mandatory prepayments under this Section 2.13 except as set forth in this Section 2.13(f).

(g) Each amount required to be used to make an offer to repay Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.13(b) (the “Mandatory Offer Amount”) in accordance with this Section 2.13(g) (with any such offer to repay being herein called an “Offer to Repay Term Loans”) shall be subject to the following requirements: (1) first, (A) the Borrower shall deliver a notice (each, an “Offer to Repay Notice”) to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the First-Lien Term Loan Lenders) irrevocably and unconditionally offering to repay on a pro rata basis to each of the First-Lien Term Loans under each First-Lien Term Loan Facility with the respective Net Cash Proceeds of the event giving rise to such Offer to Repay Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.13(b), which notice shall set forth (i) the date of the proposed consummation of such Offer to Repay Term Loans (which shall be no later than the fifth Business Day following delivery of the respective Offer to Repay Notice), (ii) the last Business Day on which such Offer to Repay Term Loans may be accepted or declined (which shall in no event be later than the date occurring three Business Days after the date of delivery of such Offer to Repay Notice) and (iii) the aggregate principal amount of the First-Lien Term Loans under each Term Loan Facility subject to such Offer to Repay Term Loans and (B) unless the Required Lenders shall have otherwise instructed the Administrative Agent on or prior to the last Business Day on which such Offer to Repay Term Loans may be accepted or declined, the Borrower shall repay First-Lien Term Loans of those Lenders that have accepted the Borrower’s respective Offer to Repay Term Loans; (2) second, to the extent that 100% of the Mandatory Offer Amount is not utilized to prepay First-Lien Term Loans pursuant to an Offer to Repay Term Loans in accordance with preceding clause (1) (i.e., because one or more Lenders did not accept such offer), the Borrower may elect to permanently reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to Section 2.09 in amount equal to such excess (and make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.13(a) as a result of such reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments) and (3) third, to the extent that 100% of the Mandatory Offer Amount is not utilized to prepay

First-Lien Term Loans pursuant to an Offer to Repay Term Loans in accordance with preceding clause (1) and/or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with preceding clause (2), the Borrower shall deliver an Offer to Repay Notice to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Second-Lien Term Loan Lenders) irrevocably and unconditionally offering to repay on a pro rata basis to each of the Second-Lien Term Loans under each Second-Lien Term Loan Facility with the remaining respective Net Cash Proceeds of the event giving rise to such Offer to Repay Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.13(b) not theretofore applied pursuant to clause (1) or (2) above, which notice shall set forth (i) the date of the proposed consummation of such Offer to Repay Term Loans (which shall be no later than the fifth Business Day following delivery of the respective Offer to Repay Notice), (ii) the last Business Day on which such Offer to Repay Term Loans may be accepted or declined (which shall in no event be later than the date occurring three Business Days after the date of delivery of such Offer to Repay Notice) and (iii) the aggregate principal amount of the Second-Lien Term Loans under each Term Loan Facility subject to such Offer to Repay Term Loans and (B) unless the Required Second-Lien Lenders shall have otherwise instructed the Administrative Agent on or prior to the last Business Day on which such Offer to Repay Term Loans may be accepted or declined, the Borrower shall repay Second-Lien Term Loans of those Lenders that have accepted the Borrower’s respective Offer to Repay Term Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (g) or any other clause of this Section 2.13, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that nothing in this Agreement shall be understood to mean or suggest that the Term Loans subject to an Offer to Repay Term Loans constitute “securities” for purposes of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

(h) If a Change of Control shall occur, unless the Borrower shall have given notice to prepay all of the Second-Lien Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.12, the Borrower shall within 30 days of such Change of Control offer to repay all or any part of each Second-Lien Term Loan Lender’s outstanding Second-Lien Term Loans (with any such offer to repay a “Change of Control Offer”), subject to the following requirements: (A) the Borrower shall deliver a notice to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Second-Lien Lenders) irrevocably and unconditionally offering to repay on a pro rata basis to each of the Second-Lien Term Loans of the Second-Lien Term Lenders an amount in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Second-Lien Term Loans to be repaid plus accrued and unpaid interest on a date which shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice and (B) on or prior to the last Business Day on which such Change of Control Offer may be accepted or declined, the Borrower shall repay the Second-Lien Term Loans of those Second-Lien Term Loan Lenders that have accepted the Borrower’s respective Change of Control Offer as provided above. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (h) or any other clause of this Section 2.13, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that nothing in this Agreement shall be understood to mean or suggest that the Second-Lien Term Loans subject to a Change of Control Offer constitute “securities” for purposes of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

Section 2.14. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall 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 or any Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement which is reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or shall impose on

such Lender or such Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be (i) to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan or (ii) to increase the cost to any Lender of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or purchasing or maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), in each case by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to be material, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made or participations in Loans purchased by such Lender pursuant hereto or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), in each case by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to be material, then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above shall be delivered to the Borrower, shall describe the applicable Change in Law, the resulting costs incurred or reduction suffered (including a calculation thereof), certifying that such Lender is generally charging such amounts to similarly situated borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within 30 days after its receipt of the same.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Lender or any Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) above with respect to increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to such request; provided, further, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 180-day period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender and the respective Issuing Bank regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or been imposed; provided that if, after the payment of any amounts by the Borrower under this Section, any Change in Law in respect of

which a payment was made is thereafter determined to be invalid or inapplicable to the relevant Lender or Issuing Bank, then such Lender or Issuing Bank shall, within 30 days after such determination, repay any amounts paid to it by the Borrower hereunder in respect of such Change in Law.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.14 to the contrary, this Section 2.14 shall not apply to any Change in Law with respect to Taxes, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.20.

Section 2.15. Change in Legality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent:

(i) such Lender may declare that dollar denominated Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional Interest Periods) and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Eurodollar Loans, whereupon any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing (or to convert an ABR Borrowing to a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (or a request to continue an ABR Loan as such for an additional Interest Period or to convert a Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender shall be converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below.

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under clause (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Loans.

(b) For purposes of this Section 2.15, a notice to the Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Borrower. Such Lender shall withdraw such notice promptly following any date on which it becomes lawful for such Lender to make and maintain Eurodollar Loans or give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurodollar Loan.

Section 2.16. Indemnity. The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any actual loss or reasonable out-of-pocket expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its

obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such Lender receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to an ABR Loan or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, in each case other than on the last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor, or (iii) any Eurodollar Loan to be made by such Lender (including any Eurodollar Loan to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) not being made after notice of such Loan shall have been given by the Borrower hereunder other than by operation of Section 2.08 (any of the events referred to in this clause (a) being called a “Breakage Event”) or (b) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment required to be made hereunder. In the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining funds for the Eurodollar Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying the funds released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period (exclusive of any loss of anticipated profits). A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error and such certificate shall set forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount was determined and such amounts shall be due within 30 days after the receipt of such notice.

Section 2.17. Pro Rata Treatment; Intercreditor Agreements. (a) Except as provided below in this Section 2.17 and as required under Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 2.16, 2.20 or 2.21, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of the Commitment Fee and the L/C Participation Fee, each reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their respective applicable outstanding Loans). For purposes of determining the available Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at any time (but subject to the last sentence of Section 2.05(a)), each outstanding Swingline Loan shall be deemed to have utilized the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders which shall not have made Swingline Loans) pro rata in accordance with such respective Revolving Credit Commitments. In addition, in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any payment or other distribution (whether from proceeds of collateral or any other source, whether in the form of cash, securities or otherwise, and whether made by any Loan Party or in connection with any exercise of remedies by the Administrative Agent or any Lender) made or applied in respect of any of the Obligations during the existence of an Event of Default or during or in connection with Insolvency Proceedings involving any Loan Party (or any plan of liquidation, distribution or reorganization in connection therewith), shall be made or applied, as the case may be, in the following order of priority (with higher priority Obligations to be paid in full prior to any payment or other distribution in respect of lower priority Obligations): (i) first,

100

to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts, including attorney fees, payable to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent in their capacities as such and the Issuing Banks in their capacity as such (ratably among the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause first payable to them); (ii) second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders hereunder, including attorney fees (ratably among such Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause second payable to them); (iii) third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest (including any default interest) on the Loans and L/C Exposure (ratably among such Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause third payable to them), including interest accruing after the filing or commencement of Insolvency Proceedings in respect of any Loan Party, whether or not any claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is or would be allowed, allowable or otherwise enforceable in any such Insolvency Proceedings; (iv) fourth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Banks, to cash collateralize any L/C Exposure then outstanding; (v) fifth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans and L/C Exposure (including any termination payments and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) (ratably among such Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause fifth held by them) and amounts constituting Hedging Obligations; and (vi) last, in the case of proceeds of collateral, the balance, if any, thereof, after all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, all Obligations in respect of L/C Exposure but excluding any contingent obligations) have been paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Applicable Law. Each Lender agrees that the provisions of this Section 2.17 (including, without limitation, the priority of the Obligations as set forth herein) constitute an intercreditor agreement among them for value received that is independent of any value received from the Loan Parties, and that such agreement shall be enforceable as against each Lender, including, without limitation, in any Insolvency Proceedings in respect of any Loan Party, to the same extent that such agreement is enforceable under applicable non-bankruptcy law (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 510(a) of the U.S. federal Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of applicable insolvency law), and that, if any Lender receives any payment or distribution in respect of any Obligation (including, without limitation, in connection with any Insolvency Proceedings or any plan of liquidation, distribution or reorganization therein) to which such Lender is not entitled in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Section 2.17, such amount shall be held in trust by such Lender for the benefit of the Person or Persons entitled to such payment or distribution hereunder, and promptly shall be turned over by such Lender to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Person or Persons entitled to such payment or distribution in accordance with this Section 2.17.

Section 2.18. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Loan or L/C Disbursement as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements of any other Lender, it shall be deemed simultaneously

101

to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Loans and L/C Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans and L/C Exposure and participations in Loans and L/C Exposure held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure then outstanding as the principal amount of its Loans and L/C Exposure prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that (i) if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.18 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.18 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant. The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan or L/C Disbursement deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.19. Payments. (a) All payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under any Note will be made without set-off, counterclaim or other defense. The Borrower shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document not later than 3:00 p.m. on the date when due in immediately available funds. Except as otherwise provided herein, each payment by the Borrower with respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit and each reimbursement of reimbursable expenses or indemnified liabilities shall be made in the currency in which such Loan was made, such Letter of Credit issued or such expense or liability was incurred. Each such payment (other than (i) Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to the relevant Issuing Bank, (ii) principal of and interest on Swingline Loans, which shall be paid directly to the Swingline Lender, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.22(e)) and (iii) amounts payable under Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20 or 2.21, which shall be paid directly to the Person entitled thereto) shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, 90 Hudson Street, Jersey City, NJ 07302, Attn: Noreen Young, Tel: (201) 593-2445, Fax: (201) 593-2314, Email: noreen.young@db.com or such other office specified by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower. 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.

(b) Amounts to be applied pursuant to Section 2.13 to the prepayment of Term Loans shall be applied, as applicable, first to reduce outstanding ABR Loans. Any amounts remaining after each such application shall be applied to prepay Eurodollar Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the amount of any prepayment of Loans required under Section 2.13 shall be in excess of the amount of the ABR Loans at the time outstanding, only the portion of the amount of such prepayment as is equal to the amount of such outstanding ABR Loans shall be immediately prepaid and, at the election of the Borrower, the balance of such

102

required prepayment shall be either (A) deposited in a deposit account maintained in the name of the Collateral Agent and applied to the prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on the last day of the then next-expiring Interest Period for Eurodollar Loans (with all interest accruing thereon for the account of the Borrower) or (B) prepaid immediately, together with any amounts owing to the Lenders under Section 2.16. Notwithstanding any such deposit in such deposit account, interest shall continue to accrue on such Loans until prepayment.

Section 2.20. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, that if any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from such payments, then for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, as the case may be, (i) such Borrower or such Loan Party shall make such deductions or withholdings, (ii) the Borrower or such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (iii) in the case of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes required to be deducted or withheld, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that, after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, as the case may be, been made.

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

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes (but not Other Taxes) were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided that if, after the payment of any amounts by the Borrower under this Section, any such Indemnified Taxes in respect of which a payment was made are thereafter determined to have been incorrectly or illegally imposed, then the relevant recipient of such payment shall, within 30 days after such determination, repay any amounts paid to it by the Borrower hereunder in respect of such Indemnified Taxes; provided, further, that the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.20(c) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date such Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, notifies the Borrower of its intention to claim compensation therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

103

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

(e) Each Foreign Lender shall promptly (a) furnish to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) on or before the date it becomes a party to the Agreement either (i) two accurate and complete originally executed copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8BEN (or successor form), (ii) two accurate and complete originally executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form), (iii) two accurate and complete originally executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or successor form) together with any required attachments, certifying, in any case, to such Foreign Lender’s legal entitlement to an exemption or reduction from U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to all payments hereunder and (b) provide to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a new Form W-8BEN (or successor form), Form W-8ECI (or successor form) or Form W-8IMY (or successor form) together with any required attachments upon (i) the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form to reconfirm any complete exemption from, or any entitlement to a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to any payment hereunder, (ii) the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it and (iii) from time to time if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent; provided that any Foreign Lender that is relying on the so-called “portfolio interest exemption” shall also furnish a “Non-Bank Certificate” in the form of Exhibit E together with a Form W-8BEN. If a payment made to a Foreign Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Foreign 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 Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Foreign Lender has complied with such Foreign Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Foreign Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(f) Any Lender or Issuing Bank that is a United States Person, as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the times specified in Section 2.20(e), two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-9, or any successor form that such Person is entitled to provide at such time, in order to qualify for an exemption from United States back-up withholding requirements.

(g) If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid

104

additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that (i) the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority and, (ii) nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of a Lender or Administrative Agent to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Lender or Agent to claim any tax refund or to make available its tax returns or disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or require any Lender or Administrative Agent to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.

(h) In addition, each Lender or Issuing Bank shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if such change would avoid any requirement of applicable laws of any such jurisdiction that the Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Lender or Issuing Bank and if such change would not, in the sole good faith determination of such Lender or Issuing Bank result in any additional costs, expenses or risks or be otherwise disadvantageous to it.

Section 2.21. Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate. (a) In the event (i) any Lender or any Issuing Bank requests compensation pursuant to Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15, (iii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.20, (iv) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender or (v) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document requested by the Borrower that requires the consent of all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 9.08 or all the Lenders with respect to a certain Class of Loans and such amendment, waiver or other modification is consented to by the Required Lenders or the Required Class Lenders for such Class, as applicable (any such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”), the Borrower may, at its sole cost and expense, upon notice to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, upon notice to the Administrative Agent and such Non-Consenting Lender, either:

(x) replace such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, by causing such Lender or Issuing Bank to (and such Lender or Issuing Bank shall be obligated to) assign at par 100% of its relevant Commitments and the principal of its relevant outstanding Loans plus any accrued and unpaid interest and fees pursuant to Section 9.04 (with the assignment fee to be waived in such instance) all of its relevant rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Persons (which Persons shall otherwise be subject

105

to the approval rights set forth in Section 9.04(b)); provided that (A) the replacement Lender shall agree to the consent, waiver or amendment to which the Non-Consenting Lender did not agree, (B) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person and (C) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.20, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments; or

(y) terminate the Commitment of such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and (1) in the case of a Lender (other than an Issuing Bank), repay all Obligations (other than contingent obligations) of the Borrower owing to such Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date and (2) in the case of an Issuing Bank, repay all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Issuing Bank relating to the Loans and participations held by the Issuing Bank as of such termination date other than any Obligations pertaining to any Subject Letters of Credit.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 2.21, unless an Issuing Bank is removed and replaced with a successor Issuing Bank at the time the Borrower exercises its rights under this Section 2.21 (in which case the provisions of Section 2.23(i) shall apply), any Issuing Bank having undrawn Letters of Credit issued by it (the “Subject Letters of Credit”) whose Commitments and Obligations are to be repaid or terminated pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.21 shall (x) remain a party hereto until the expiration or termination of the Subject Letters of Credit, (y) not issue (or be required to issue) any further Letters of Credit hereunder and (z) continue to have all rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents solely with respect to the Subject Letters of Credit until all of the Subject Letters of Credit have expired, been terminated or become subject to an L/C Backstop (including all rights of reimbursement pursuant to Sections 2.23(d), (e), (f) and (h) for any L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and all voting rights of an Issuing Bank (but such voting rights shall be limited to pertain solely to L/C Disbursements in respect of the Subject Letters of Credit, any Fee payable to the Issuing Bank in respect of the Subject Letters of Credit, and the rights or duties of the Issuing Bank in respect of the Subject Letters of Credit), but excluding any consent rights as an Issuing Bank under Section 9.04(b)).

Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in respect of the circumstances contemplated by this Section 2.21.

(b) If (i) any Lender or any Issuing Bank requests compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15 or (iii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or any Issuing Bank, pursuant to Section 2.20, then such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts (which shall not require such Lender or such Issuing Bank to take any action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any disadvantage or burden deemed by it to be material) (x) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrower or (y) to

106

assign its rights and delegate and transfer its obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such filing or assignment would reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.14 or enable it to withdraw its notice pursuant to Section 2.15 or would reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, in the future.

Section 2.22. Swingline Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Swingline Lender agrees to make loans to the Borrower at any time and from time to time on or after the Closing Date and until the termination its Swingline Commitment, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the principal amount of all Swingline Loans exceeding $25,000,000 in the aggregate or (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Swingline Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swingline Loans at a time when a Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, unless the Swingline Lender has entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it and the Borrower to eliminate the Swingline Lender’s risk with respect to the Defaulting Lender’s participation in such Swingline Loans, including by cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the outstanding amount of Swingline Loans. Each Swingline Loan shall be denominated in dollars and shall be in a principal amount that is a minimum amount of $100,000 and integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. The Swingline Commitment may be terminated or reduced from time to time as provided herein. Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein without any premium or penalty.

(b) The Borrower shall notify the Swingline Lender by fax, or by telephone (promptly confirmed by fax), not later than 12:30 p.m. on the Business Day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Such notice shall be delivered on a Business Day, shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of such Swingline Loan. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to such Borrower by means of a credit to an account designated by the Borrower promptly on the date such Swingline Loan is so requested.

(c) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written or fax notice by such Borrower (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written, or fax notice) to the Swingline Lender before 2:00 p.m. on the date of prepayment at the Swingline Lender’s address for notices specified in Section 9.01; provided that any such notice delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other financing arrangements, in which case such notice may be revoked by such Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

(d) Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan and, subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, shall bear interest as provided in Section 2.06(a).

(e) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on any Business Day require the Revolving Credit Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which

107

Revolving Credit Lenders will participate. The Administrative Agent will, promptly upon receipt of such notice, give notice to each Revolving Credit Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02(c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent and be distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower (or other party liable for obligations of the Borrower) of any default in the payment thereof.

Section 2.23. Letters of Credit. (a) The Borrower may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit on a sight basis for its own account or for the account of any of its subsidiaries, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time on or after the Closing Date and prior to the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of its L/C Commitment and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the latest Revolving Credit Maturity Date. This Section shall not be construed to impose an obligation upon any Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or if any Letter of Credit requested to be issued (or amended, as applicable) would have a stated expiry date after the next Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit having stated expiry dates after the next Revolving Credit Maturity Date would exceed the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments that have maturities after such Revolving Credit Maturity Date, unless, with the consent of the relevant Issuing Bank, the Borrower provides cash collateral in an amount equal to not less than 100% of such overage. Letters of Credit shall be denominated in dollars.

(b) In order to request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or to amend, renew or extend an existing Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall deliver a notice (a “Letter of Credit Request”) to the relevant Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably, and in any event, unless waived by the relevant Issuing Bank, no later than two Business Days in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) requesting the issuance of a

108

Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended and specifying (i) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (ii) the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) below), (iii) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and (v) such other information as the relevant Issuing Bank may reasonably request with respect to such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if, and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the L/C Exposure shall not exceed $75,000,000 and (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Request, the relevant Issuing Bank will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Request from the Borrower and, if not, such Issuing Bank will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or one of its subsidiaries or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be. Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the relevant Issuing Bank will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(c) Each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on the earlier of the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and the latest Revolving Credit Maturity Date, unless such Letter of Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date (such date, a “Letter of Credit Expiration Date”); or an L/C Backstop exists (the “Letter of Credit Expiration Date”); provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit (an “Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit”) shall be renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of 12 months or less (but not beyond the latest Revolving Credit Maturity Date unless an L/C Backstop exists) unless the relevant Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least 30 days (or such longer period as may be specified in such Letter of Credit) prior to the then-applicable Letter of Credit Expiration Date that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed. Once an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the relevant Issuing Bank to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided that (i) the relevant Issuing Bank may, at its option, not permit any such renewal if the relevant Issuing Bank has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.23(l) or otherwise) and (ii) the relevant Issuing Bank shall not permit any such renewal if it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) five Business Days prior to the day that is 30 days (or such longer period as may be specified in such Letter of Credit) prior to the then-applicable Letter of Credit Expiration Date from the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Credit Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.01 is not then satisfied or waived.

(d) By the issuance of a Letter of Credit and without any further action on the part of an Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving

109

Credit Lender, and each such Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower (or, if applicable, another party pursuant to its obligations under any other Loan Document) forthwith on the date due as provided in Section 2.02(f). Each Revolving Credit 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 the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Upon any change in the Revolving Credit Commitments or Pro Rata Percentages of the Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to Section 2.21 or 9.04(b), it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit and unreimbursed L/C Disbursements relating thereto, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 2.23(d) to reflect the new Pro Rata Percentages of each Revolving Credit Lender.

(e) If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon on the second Business Day following the day the Borrower receives notice of such L/C Disbursement.

(f) (i) The Borrower’s obligations to reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) above 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 the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Person, including any defense based on the failure of any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; provided, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any wrongful payment made by the Issuing Bank as a result of the Issuing Bank’s gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or breach of its obligations in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.

(ii) Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any draft, demand, certificate or other document expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Issuing Banks, the Agents nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any Issuing Bank shall be liable to any Lender for (x) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, (y) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct or (z) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or

110

instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Request. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude either Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement; provided further that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse such Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise the standard of care set forth above when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.

(g) The relevant Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The relevant Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic notification, confirmed by fax, to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligations to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement.

(h) If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the same day that such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of an Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement, to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment by the Borrower or the date on which interest shall commence to accrue thereon as provided in Section 2.02(f), at the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount were an ABR Revolving Loan.

(i) An Issuing Bank may be removed at any time by the Borrower by notice from the Borrower to such Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender that shall agree to serve as successor Issuing Bank (which Lender shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent), such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank. At the time such removal shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(ii). The acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or removal of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and

111

the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) If the maturity of any of the Loans under the Credit Facilities has been accelerated and the Borrower shall have received notice from the Administrative Agent (at the request of the Required Revolving Lenders) or the Required Revolving Lenders, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the L/C Exposure as of such date. Such deposit shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment of the Obligations. The Collateral 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 in Cash Equivalents, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Borrower, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Until such acceleration is rescinded, moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the L/C Exposure at such time and (iii) subject to the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders, be applied to satisfy the Obligations. If the Borrower are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the acceleration of the Loans under the Credit Facilities, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days to the extent any such acceleration has been rescinded.

(k) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement. Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph (k) shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Bank and such Lender.

(l) An Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or direct that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular;

(ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate any applicable laws binding upon such Issuing Bank; and

(iii) any Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender at such time, unless such Issuing Bank has entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it and the Borrower to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the participation in Letters

112

of Credit by such Defaulting Lender, including by cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the L/C Exposure.

(m) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Requests, reimbursement agreements or similar agreements, the terms hereof shall control.

Section 2.24. Incremental Credit Extensions. (a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent, specifying which Class or Classes of Loans are affected (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request (i) one or more additional Series of first-lien term loans under this Section 2.24 (the “Incremental First-Lien Term Loans”), (ii) one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments under this Section 2.24 (each such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase” and, together with any Incremental First-Lien Term Loans, a “First-Lien Credit Increase”) or (iii) one or more additional Series of second-lien term loans under this Section 2.24 (the “Incremental Second-Lien Term Loans” and, together with any First-Lien Credit Increase, a “Credit Increase”); provided that both at the time of any such request and upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment referred to below, no Event of Default shall exist. Each Credit Increase shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $25,000,000 (or such lower amount that either (A) represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in the next sentence or (B) is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate amount of the First-Lien Credit Increases incurred after the First Amendment Effective Date shall not exceed the maximum amount at the time of such proposed Credit Increase that could be incurred such that after giving pro forma effect to such First-Lien Credit Increase, the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio does not exceed 5.00:1.00 as of the last date for which Section 5.04 Financials have been delivered to the Administrative Agent. Each Incremental First-Lien Term Loan (1) shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the Revolving Credit Loans and the First-Lien Term Loans and shall rank pari passu in right of payment and senior in right of security to the Second-Lien Term Loans, (2) shall not mature earlier than the Latest Maturity Date applicable to First-Lien Term Loans then in effect, (3) shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity not shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Class of the First-Lien Term Loans (without giving effect to annual amortization on any Incremental First-Lien Term Loans not in excess of 1% of the principal amount thereof), (4) shall be treated in the same manner as the First-Lien Term Loans for purposes of Section 2.13(e), Section 2.13(g) and Section 2.17(b), (5) the interest rates and amortization schedule applicable to any Incremental First-Lien Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrower and the Lenders thereunder, and (6) subject to the above, any terms for Incremental First-Lien Term Loans that are inconsistent with the then-existing First-Lien Term Loans shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Each Incremental Second-Lien Term Loan (1) shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the Second-Lien Term Loans and shall rank pari passu in right of payment and junior in right of security to the Revolving Credit Loans and the First-Lien Term Loans, (2) shall not mature earlier than the Second-Lien Term Loan Maturity Date, (3) shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity not shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Second-Lien Term Loans, (4) shall be treated in the same manner as the Second-Lien Term Loans for purposes of Section

113

2.13(e), Section 2.13(g) and Section 2.17(b), (5) the interest rates and amortization schedule applicable to any Incremental Second-Lien Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrower and the Lenders thereunder, (6) shall, in the case of Incremental Second-Lien Term Loans incurred after the Second Restatement Effective Date, constitute Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of the outstanding Second-Lien Term Loans, and (7) subject to the above, any terms for Incremental Second-Lien Term Loans that are inconsistent with the then-existing Second-Lien Term Loans shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.24 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Credit Increases. Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Revolving Commitment Increases may be provided, by any existing Lender or by any Additional Lender. The Arrangers agree, upon the request of the Borrower and pursuant to mutually satisfactory engagement and compensation arrangements, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any Additional Lenders to make any such requested Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitment Increases; provided that the Arrangers’ agreement to use such efforts does not constitute a commitment to provide any such requested Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitment Increases.

(b) Commitments in respect of Credit Increases shall become Commitments (or in the case of a Revolving Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Revolving Credit Lender, an increase in such Lender’s applicable Revolving Credit Commitment) under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.24. The effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waived) on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Credit Event” or similar language in such Section 4.01 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such Incremental Amendment). The Borrower may use the proceeds of Incremental Term Loans for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Credit Increases unless it so agrees in its sole discretion. Upon each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Class pursuant to this Section, each Revolving Credit Lender of the affected Class immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Revolving Commitment Increase for such Class (each, a “Revolving Commitment Increase Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Credit Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans, in each case of such Class, such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (i) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (ii) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each Revolving Credit Lender of the affected Class (including each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of all Revolving Credit Lenders of the affected Class represented by such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and (b) if, on the

114

date of such increase, there are any Revolving Loans of the affected Class outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase be prepaid from the proceeds of additional Revolving Loans of such Class made hereunder (reflecting such increase in Revolving Credit Commitments), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans of such Class being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.16.

(c) The Loans and Commitments established pursuant to this paragraph shall constitute Loans and Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the Guarantees and security interests created by the Security Documents. The Loan Parties shall take any actions reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to ensure and/or demonstrate that the Lien and security interests granted by the Security Documents continue to be perfected under the UCC or otherwise after giving effect to the establishment of any such Class of Term Loans or any such new Commitments.

(d) This Section 2.24 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or 9.08 to the contrary.

Section 2.25. Refinancing Amendments. At any time after the Third Restatement Effective Date, any Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of (a) all or any portion of the Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (a) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans) and/or (b) all or any portion of the Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Credit Commitments) under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (b) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Revolving Loans and Other Revolving Credit Commitments), in the form of (x) Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments or (y) Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Credit Commitments, respectively, in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (i) will rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with, or at the option of the Borrower, may be subordinated in right of payment and/or security (or be unsecured) to the other Loans and Commitments hereunder, (ii) have such pricing and call protection terms as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof, (iii) the Effective Yield with respect to each Class of Other Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, original issue discount or otherwise) may be different than the Effective Yield for the Loans of other Class or Classes of Loans and Commitments, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Refinancing Amendment; provided that (x) if any Original Extended Term Loans remain outstanding at the time of the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment that is consummated prior to the date which is 18 months after the First Restatement Effective Date and that relates to a new Class or Classes of Other Term Loans, then to the extent the Effective Yield in respect of such Class of Other Term Loans shall at any time (over the life of such Other Term Loans) exceed by more than 0.25% the Effective Yield on the Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans, the Applicable Percentage applicable to such Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that at all times thereafter the Original Extended First-Lien Term Loans do not receive less than the Effective Yield with respect to such new Other Term Loans, less 0.25% per annum and (y) if any Additional Extended Term Loans remain outstanding at the time of the effectiveness of any

115

Refinancing Amendment that is consummated prior to the date which is 18 months after the Second Restatement Effective Date and that relates to a new Class or Classes of Other Term Loans constituting First-Lien Term Loans, then to the extent the Effective Yield in respect of such Class of Other Term Loans shall at any time (over the life of such Other Term Loans) exceed by more than 0.25% the Effective Yield on the Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans, the Applicable Percentage applicable to such Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that at all times thereafter the Additional Extended First-Lien Term Loans do not receive less than the Effective Yield with respect to such new Other Term Loans, less 0.25% per annum, (iv) except as provided in Section 2.13(d)(ii) or as may be agreed to by the Lenders and Additional Lenders providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in the respective Refinancing Amendment (but solely as it relates to such Person’s providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness waiving their pro rata share of any applicable prepayment or repayment), each Class of Other Term Loans shall be prepaid and repaid on a pro rata basis with all voluntary prepayments and mandatory prepayments (but not amortization payments) of the other Classes of Term Loans and (v) otherwise be treated hereunder no more favorably with respect to covenants and events of default, than the Refinanced Debt, except that the terms and conditions applicable to such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the date such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is issued, incurred or obtained. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Credit Event” or similar language in such Section 4.01 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such Refinancing Amendment and such other conditions as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness and set forth in a Refinancing Amendment) and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date other than changes to such legal opinion resulting from a change in law, change in fact, change to counsel’s form of opinions and other customary changes consistent with prevailing market practice reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Security Documents as may be reasonably requested by the relevant Collateral Agent in order to ensure that the Refinancing Indebtedness is provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents. Any Other Term Loans and/or Other Revolving Commitments (any corresponding Revolving Credit Exposure) converted from or exchanged for any then-existing Term Loans or then-existing Revolving Credit Commitments may, to the extent provided in the applicable Refinancing Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Other Term Loan or Other Revolving Commitment, as applicable. Each Class or Series of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.25 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than an amount to be agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Any Refinancing Amendment may provide for the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower, or the provision to the Borrower of Swingline Loans, pursuant to any Other Revolving Credit Commitments established thereby, in each case on terms substantially equivalent to the terms applicable to Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans under the then-extant Revolving Credit Commitments (it being understood that

116

such Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans may have different pricing and maturity dates, but shall otherwise be treated as though they are a part of a single letter of credit or swingline facility, as applicable, with the then-extant Revolving Credit Commitments) or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and any applicable swingline lender or letter of credit issuer. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment (each, a “Refinancing Effective Date”). Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Term Loans, Other Revolving Loans, Other Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Other Term Commitments) and (ii) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of Section 9.08(c). On any Refinancing Effective Date on which Other Revolving Credit Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the foregoing terms and conditions, (a) the Revolving Loans of any existing Revolving Credit Lender who is providing a new Other Revolving Credit Commitment on such date and whose existing Revolving Credit Commitment is being reduced on such date pursuant to Section 2.09 in connection therewith shall be converted into Revolving Loans under such Lender’s new Other Revolving Credit Commitment being provided on such date in the same ratio as (x) the amount of such Lender’s new Other Revolving Credit Commitment bears to (y) the aggregate amount of such Lender’s existing Revolving Credit Commitment prior to any reduction of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to Section 2.09 in connection therewith and (b) each of the Revolving Credit Lenders with Other Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Class shall purchase from each of the other Lenders with Other Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class, at the principal amount thereof, such interests in the Other Revolving Loans under such Class of Other Revolving Credit Commitments so converted or outstanding on such Refinancing Effective Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, the Other Revolving Loans of such Series will be held by Revolving Credit Lenders with such Series of Other Revolving Credit Commitments ratably in accordance with their respective Other Revolving Credit Commitments of such Series. Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.25 and the Required Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Refinancing Amendment, and this Section 2.25 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or 9.08 to the contrary.

ARTICLE III

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Borrower described in paragraph (g) or (h) above), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may (with the consent of the Required Lenders), and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by written notice to the Borrower, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate forthwith the Commitments and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Borrower accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall become forthwith due and payable, to the extent permitted by applicable law, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding; and in any event with respect to the Borrower described in paragraph (g) or (h) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Borrower accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall automatically become due and payable, to the extent permitted by

165

applicable law, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

Section 7.02. Right to Cure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VII, in the event that the Borrower fails to comply with the requirements of Section 6.07 as of the end of any relevant fiscal quarter, the Borrower shall have the right (the “Cure Right”) (at any time during such fiscal quarter or thereafter until the date that is 20 days after the date the Pricing Certificate is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(c)) to issue Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) for cash or otherwise receive cash contributions to its common equity in an amount equal no greater than that needed to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the requirements of Section 6.07 (the “Cure Amount”), and thereupon the Borrower’s compliance with Section 6.07 shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma adjustments: (i) EBITDA shall be increased, solely for the purposes of determining compliance with Section 6.07, including determining compliance with Section 6.07 as of the end of such fiscal quarter and applicable subsequent periods that include such fiscal quarter by an amount equal to the Cure Amount and (ii) if, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account any repayment of Indebtedness in connection therewith), the requirements of Section 6.07 shall be satisfied, then the requirements of Section 6.07 shall be deemed satisfied as of the end of the relevant fiscal quarter with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of Section 6.07 that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) in each four fiscal quarter period there shall be a period of at least two fiscal quarter in which the Cure Right is not exercised, (y) the Cure Amount shall be no greater than the amount required for purposes of complying with Section 6.07 and (z) upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a notice from the Borrower that it intends to exercise the Cure Right (a “Notice of Intent to Cure”), until the 20th day following date of delivery of the Pricing Certificate under Section 5.04(c) to which such Notice of Intent to Cure relates, none of the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall exercise the right to accelerate the Loans or terminate the Commitments and none of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agents nor any other Lender or Secured Party shall (i) exercise any right to foreclose on or take possession of the Collateral or (ii) exercise and other remedy hereunder or applicable law solely on the basis of an Event of Default having occurred and being continuing under Section 6.07.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent

Each of the First-Lien Lenders and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints each of the Administrative Agent and the First-Lien Collateral Agent (the Administrative Agent and the First-Lien Collateral Agent are referred to collectively as the “First-Lien Agents”) its agent and authorizes the First-Lien Agents to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such First-Lien Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the First-Lien Agents are hereby expressly authorized to execute any and all documents (including releases), including the Intercreditor Agreement, the other

166

intercreditor agreements contemplated hereby and the Security Documents with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the First-Lien Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents. The First-Lien Lenders each hereby agree and consent to all of the provisions of the Security Documents.

Each of the Second-Lien Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints each of the Administrative Agent and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (the Administrative Agent and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent are referred to collectively as the “Second-Lien Agents”) its agent and authorizes the Second-Lien Agents to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Second-Lien Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Second-Lien Agents are hereby expressly authorized to execute any and all documents (including releases), including the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Second-Lien Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents. The Second-Lien Lenders each hereby agree and consent to all of the provisions of the Security Documents.

The bank serving as the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral 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 an Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder.

Neither Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) neither Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) neither Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that such Agent is instructed in writing to exercise by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.08), (c) each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the relevant Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the relevant Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action and (d) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, neither Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings, the Borrower or any of the subsidiaries thereof that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Agent shall 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 9.08) or in the absence of its (or its agents’, employees’, advisors’, director’s, officer’s or affiliates’) own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or breach of the Loan Documents (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment).

167

Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and neither Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with 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, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under the Collateral Documents or (vi) 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 such Agent.

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

For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.01 or Section 4.02, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date or Credit Event specifying its objection thereto.

Each 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 it. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or 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 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 Agent.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor First-Lien Agent as provided below, any First-Lien Agent may resign at any time by notifying in writing the relevant First-Lien Lenders, each Issuing Bank (if applicable) and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation of the Administrative Agent or the First-Lien Collateral Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, and provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under paragraphs (g)(i) or (h) of Section 7.01), to appoint a successor (other than a Disqualified Institution) which shall be a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the United States or any State or a United States

168

branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, in each case having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Second-Lien Agent as provided below, any Second-Lien Agent may resign at any time by notifying in writing the relevant Second-Lien Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation of the Administrative Agent or the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, and provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under paragraphs (g)(i) or (h) of Section 7.01), to appoint a successor (other than a Disqualified Institution) which shall be a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the United States or any State or a United States branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, in each case having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000.

If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of resignation of the relevant Agent specified by such Agent in its written notice, the resigning Agent may appoint, after consulting with the relevant Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent from among the relevant Lenders. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the successor agent by the date which is 60 days following the retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the relevant Lenders shall perform all of the duties of such Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above (except in the case of the Collateral Agent holding collateral security on behalf of any Secured Parties, the resigning Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as nominee until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Security Documents, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to (a) continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Security Documents or (b) otherwise ensure that the obligations under Section 5.09 are satisfied, the successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges, and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 acting as Agent.

None of Lenders or other Persons identified on the cover page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “bookrunner” or “arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender.

169

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents, the Arrangers 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 Agents, the Arrangers 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 or any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (irrespective of whether the Obligations shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether such Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise;

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the First-Lien Obligations or Second-Lien Obligations, as applicable and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the First-Lien Lenders and each First-Lien Agent or the Second-Lien Lenders and each Second Lien-Agent, as applicable (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and each Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due such Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.05 and 9.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to such Agent and, in the event such Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts in each case due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.05 and 9.05.

170

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize any Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any relevant Lender any plan or reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any relevant Lender to authorize such Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any such Lender in any such proceeding.

Each Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each Issuing Bank shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Agents in this Article VIII with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in this Article VIII included such Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to such Issuing Bank.

Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens for the benefit of the Agents and the Secured Parties, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law of the United States of America can be perfected only by possession. Should any Secured Party (other than an Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Secured Party shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent, or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions.

Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an 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 2.14, 2.16, 2.20 and 9.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment, as well as to any Fees accrued for its account and not yet paid). Any assignment or transfer 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 (f) of this Section 9.04. This clause (b) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Classes of Loans or Commitments on a non-pro rata basis.

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that its Revolving Credit Commitment of the applicable Class, and the outstanding balances of its Term Loans of the applicable Class and Revolving Loans of the applicable Class, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of Holdings, the Borrower or any subsidiary or the performance or observance by Holdings, the Borrower or any subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 3.05(a) or delivered pursuant to Section 5.04, the Intercreditor Agreement and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such assigning Lender 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, (vi) such assignee agrees to be bound by the Intercreditor Agreement and the other

175

intercreditor agreements contemplated hereby, (vii) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, respectively, by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, (viii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender, and (ix) to the extent applicable, such assignee is an Eligible Assignee and does not constitute a Disqualified Institution.

(d) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and any changes thereto, whether by assignment or otherwise, and the Commitment (by Class) of, and principal amount of the Loans (by Class) (and related interest amount and fees with respect to such Loan) owing and paid to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest effort and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may 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 Borrower and Lenders at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above, if applicable, and the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Issuing Banks to such assignment (in each case to the extent required pursuant to paragraph (b) above) and any applicable tax forms required by Section 2.20(e) or (f), as applicable, the Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) promptly record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (e).

(f) Each Lender may without the consent of the Borrower, the Swingline Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other Persons (other than to Disqualified Institutions) in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of any Class of its Commitment and any Class of the Loans owing to it and its participations in the L/C Exposure and/or Swingline Loans); 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, (iii) the participating banks or other Persons shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 2.20 to the same extent as if they were Lenders (but, with respect to any particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender that sold the participation to such participant and in the case of Section 2.20, only if such participant shall have provided any form of information that it would have been required to provide under such Section if it were a Lender), (iv) to the extent permitted by applicable law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as though it

176

were a Lender, so long as such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18 as though it were a Lender and (v) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to the Loans or L/C Disbursements and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 9.08(b) as it pertains to the Class of Loans or Commitments in which such participant has an interest). Each Lender selling a participation to a participant (i) shall keep a register, meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c), of each such participation, specifying such participant’s entitlement to payments of principal and interest with respect to such participation and (ii) shall provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with the applicable forms, certificates and statements described in Section 2.20(e) or (f) hereof, as applicable, as if such participant was a Lender hereunder. Notwithstanding anything in clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence to the contrary, each Lender shall have the right to sell one or more participations to one or more Lenders or other Persons that provide financing to such Lender in the form of sales and repurchases of participations without having to satisfy the requirements set forth therein.

(g) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any non-public information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of such non-public information on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.16.

(h) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure extensions of credit to such Lender or in support of obligations owed by such Lender; provided that (i) such assignment shall not increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of Holdings or the Borrower hereunder or any Loan Party under any other Loan Document and (ii) no such assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (x) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any

177

SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of Holdings or the Borrower hereunder or any Loan Party under any other Loan Document, (y) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender) and (z) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes remain the Lender of record hereunder. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPC may (A) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender and (B) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(j) The Borrower shall not assign or delegate any of its rights or duties hereunder (other than in a transaction permitted by Section 6.04) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void.

(k) If the Borrower wishes to replace the Loans or Commitments under any Credit Facility with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders under such Credit Facility, instead of prepaying the Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require the Lenders under such Credit Facility to assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 9.08 (with such replacement, if applicable, being deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 9.08(d)). Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans and Commitments to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders under such Credit Facility in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrower), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.16. By receiving such purchase price, the Lenders under such Credit Facility shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Loans or Commitments under such Credit Facility pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Acceptance, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.

Section 9.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) If the Closing Date occurs, the Borrower agrees to pay (i) all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses (but limited, as to legal fees and expenses, to those of White & Case LLP, counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Initial Lenders taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in each material jurisdiction) incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Initial Lenders, in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities and execution, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof requested by or for the benefit of the Borrower (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel identified herein (plus one local counsel in each material jurisdiction)) and (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (but limited, as to legal fees and expenses, to one counsel for

178

all such Persons taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel to all such Persons taken as a whole in any material jurisdiction) incurred by the Agents, any Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights or remedies in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder.

(b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, trustees, advisors, agents and controlling persons involved in the Transactions (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all actual out-of-pocket costs, out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees, documented out-of-pocket disbursements and other charges of one counsel to the Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and one local counsel to the Indemnitees taken as a whole in each material jurisdiction; provided that if (i) one or more Indemnitees shall have reasonably concluded that there are legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to one or more other Indemnitees or (ii) the representation of the Indemnitees (or any portion thereof) by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual differing interests between them, then such expenses shall include the reasonable fees, out-of-pocket disbursements and other charges of one separate counsel to such Indemnitees, taken as a whole, in each relevant jurisdiction), and liabilities of such Indemnitee arising out of or in connection with (w) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated thereby (including the syndication of the Credit Facilities), (x) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit, (y) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates), or (z) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on any property currently or formerly owned or operated by Holdings, the Borrower or any of the subsidiaries, or any liability under Environmental Laws related in any way to Holdings, the Borrower or the subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such costs, expenses or liabilities (x) resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (or its Affiliates and the respective directors, officers, employees and agents of such Indemnitee and such Indemnitee’s Affiliates) (each, a “related party” of such Indemnitee) or breach of its (or any of its related parties’) obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or in connection with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, (y) relate to the presence or Release of Hazardous Materials that first occur at any property owned by Holdings or the Borrower after such property is transferred to any Indemnitee, any of its related parties or any of their respective successors or assigns by foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or similar transfer or (z) resulted from any dispute solely among Indemnitees and (or their related parties) not involving the Borrower, the Sponsor or their respective Affiliates. The Borrower shall have no obligation to reimburse any Indemnitee for fees and expenses unless such Indemnitee provides the Borrower with an undertaking in which such Indemnitee agrees to refund and return any and all amounts paid by the Borrower to such Indemnitee to the extent any of the foregoing items in clauses (x) and (y) occurs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9.05 shall not apply to Tax matters, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.20.

179

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to (i) the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent or any other Indemnitee related thereto under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section (and without limiting its obligation to do so), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Arrangers, such Indemnitee and the Administrative Agent, 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, the (ii) the First-Lien Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender or any other Indemnitee related thereto under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section each First-Lien Lender (other than, in the case of the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender, any Term Lender) severally agrees to pay to the First-Lien Collateral Agent, such Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or any other Indemnitee related thereto, as the case may be, such First-Lien Lender’s pro rata share (determined as if the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity is sought) of such unpaid amount and (iii) the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Indemnitee related thereto under paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section, each Second-Lien Lender severally agrees to pay the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Indemnitee related thereto such Second-Lien Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity 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 Arrangers, the Agents, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender or such Indemnitee in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, outstanding First-Lien Term Loans and outstanding Second-Lien Term Loans and unused commitments at the time. It is understood and agreed that all indemnities under the Original Credit Agreement shall survive the Third Restatement Effective Date.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim from (i) the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent such damages have resulted from the willful misconduct, bad faith, fraud, gross negligence or breach of the Loan Documents of such party of any of its Affiliates or the respective directors, officers, employees and agents of such party and such party’s Affiliates and (ii) 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) The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall survive the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Banks. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable within 30 days after receipt of an invoice relating thereto setting forth such amounts in reasonable detail.

Section 9.06. Right of Setoff; Payments Set Aside. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from

180

time to time, except to the extent prohibited by law, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party and its subsidiaries) to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) (other than tax, payroll, employee benefit, fiduciary or trust accounts) at any time held and other Indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter due and owing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

(b) To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to any Agent or any Lender, or any Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then (i) to the extent of such recovery the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (ii) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect.

Section 9.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN LETTERS OF CREDIT AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH LETTER OF CREDIT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OR RULES DESIGNATED IN SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT, OR IF NO SUCH LAWS OR RULES ARE DESIGNATED, THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS AND PRACTICE FOR DOCUMENTARY CREDITS MOST RECENTLY PUBLISHED AND IN EFFECT, ON THE DATE SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT WAS ISSUED, BY THE INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE (THE “UNIFORM CUSTOMS”) AND, AS TO MATTERS NOT GOVERNED BY THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 9.08. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank in exercising any power or right 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

181

thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by clause (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Subject to Section 2.24 and clause (d) below, and except for those actions expressly permitted to be taken by the Agents, neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Required Lenders and the Loan Parties that are party thereto and are affected by such waiver, amendment or modification and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) reduce the principal amount of, or extend or waive any scheduled amortization payment or the final scheduled maturity date of or date for the payment of any interest on, any Loan or any date for reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement, forgive any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (it being understood that any change to the component definitions of the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio affecting the determination of interest and the waiver of a Default, Event of Default or default interest shall only require the consent of Holdings, the Borrower and the Required Lenders), (ii) increase or extend the Commitment or decrease or extend the date for payment of any Fees of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender, including, without limitation, amendments to Section 2.05(d) and the definition of Repricing Transaction (it being understood that any change to the component definitions of the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio affecting the determination of any Fee and the waiver of a Default, Event of Default or default fees shall only require the consent of the Borrower and the Required Lenders), (iii) amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.17, the provisions of Section 2.18, the provisions of Section 9.04(j) (it being understood that any change to Section 6.04 shall only require approval of the Required Lenders) or the provisions of this Section 9.08 (except as set forth below) or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors or all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as permitted under Sections 6.04, 6.05 or 9.18 and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), without the prior written consent of each Lender, or (iv) reduce the percentage contained in the definition of the term “Required Lenders”, “Required Class Lenders” or “Required Revolving Lenders” without the prior written consent of each Lender, each Lender of the affected Class or each Revolving Credit Lender, respectively (it being understood that with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Required Class Lenders or the Required Revolving Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders, Required Revolving Lenders or Required Class Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Commitments and extensions of credit thereunder on the date hereof and this Section may be amended to reflect such extension of credit); provided, further, that (w) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such Issuing

182

Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, (x) no such agreement shall make any change to the documents that by its terms affects the rights of any Class of Lenders to receive payments in any manner different than any other Class of Lenders without the written consent of the Required Class Lenders of such Class; and (y) Section 9.04(i) may not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in addition to any credit extensions and related Incremental Amendments or Refinancing Amendments effectuated without the consent of Lenders in accordance with Section 2.24 or Section 2.25, as applicable, this Agreement (including this Section 9.08 and Section 2.17) may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and Fees in respect thereof, (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders, the Required Revolving Lenders, the Required Class Lenders and other definitions related to such new credit facilities and (iii) to provide class protection for any additional credit facilities in a manner consistent with those provided herein for the Classes of Lenders contemplated by this Agreement as in effect on the Closing Date.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in addition, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, Holdings, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing in whole, but not in part, of any Class of outstanding Term Loans or any then outstanding Class of Replacement Term Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder (“Replacement Term Loans”), provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (ii) the Applicable Percentage for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Percentage for such Refinanced Term Loans, (iii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (without giving effect to annual amortization on any Refinanced Term Loan Facility not in excess of 1% of the principal amount thereof) and (iv) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing; provided, further that to the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between this Section 9.08(d) and Section 2.24, Section 2.24 shall control in all respects.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to Section 2.13(e) with respect to the application of any mandatory prepayment that results in a Class of Lenders being allocated a lesser repayment than such Class would otherwise have been entitled to in the absence of such amendment, modification or waiver, shall require the consent of the Required Class Lenders or the Required Revolving

183

Lenders, as applicable for such affected Class (except in the case where additional extensions of terms loans are being afforded substantially the same treatment afforded to the Term Loans pursuant to this Agreement on the Closing Date).

(f) Each waiver, amendment, modification, supplement or consent made or given pursuant to this Section 9.08 shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given, and such waiver, amendment, modification or supplement shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding on the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Agents and all future holders of the Loans and Commitments.

(g) Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.08, if following the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have agreed in their sole and absolute discretions that there is an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Documents if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

Section 9.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation in any L/C Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan or participation in such L/C Disbursement 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 or participation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan or participation 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 or participation but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.09 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or participations or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount shall have been received by such Lender.

Section 9.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Fee Letter and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any other previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees, the Arrangers, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

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

Section 9.13. Counterparts. 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, and shall become effective as provided in Section 9.03. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission or electronic mail (by .pdf file) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

ARTICLE X

Holdings Guaranty

Section 10.01. Guaranty. In order to induce the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder, and to induce the other Guaranteed Creditors to enter into Hedge Obligations and Cash Management Obligations with one or more Loan Parties and in recognition of the direct benefits to be received by Holdings from the proceeds of the Loans, the issuance of the Letters of Credit and the entering into of such Hedge Obligations and Cash Management Obligations, Holdings hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors as follows: Holdings hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as primary obligor and not merely as surety the full and prompt payment when due, whether upon maturity, acceleration or otherwise, of any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors. If any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors become due and payable hereunder, Holdings, unconditionally and irrevocably, promises to pay such Indebtedness to the Administrative Agent and/or the other Guaranteed Creditors, or order, promptly upon written demand, together with any and all actual reasonable out-of-pocket expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Creditors in collecting any of the Guaranteed Obligations in each case to the extent reimbursable pursuant to Section 9.05. If claim is ever made upon any Guaranteed Creditor for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant (including the Borrower), then and in such event Holdings agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon Holdings, notwithstanding any revocation of this Holdings Guaranty or other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower, and Holdings shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee.

Section 10.02. Nature of Liability. The liability of Holdings hereunder is primary, absolute and unconditional, exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether executed by any other guarantor or by any other party, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the liability of Holdings hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by the Borrower or by any other Person, (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or

190

maximum liability of a Guarantor or of any Person as to the Guaranteed Obligations, (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking (other than to the extent of such payment or reduction), (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by the Borrower, (e) any payment made to any Guaranteed Creditor on the Guaranteed Obligations which any such Guaranteed Creditor repays to the Borrower pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and Holdings waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding, (f) any action or inaction by the Guaranteed Creditors as contemplated in Section 10.04 or (g) any invalidity, irregularity or enforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or of any security therefor.

Section 10.03. Independent Obligation. The obligations of Holdings hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Guarantor, any other Person or the Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Holdings whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor, any other Person or the Borrower and whether or not any other guarantor, any other party or the Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Holdings waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any payment by the Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to the Borrower shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to Holdings.

Section 10.04. Authorization. Holdings authorizes the Guaranteed Creditors without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and to the extent permitted by applicable law, without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to:

(a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest or fees thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and this Holdings Guaranty shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;

(b) take and hold security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange, release, impair, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset there against;

(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Borrower, any other Credit Party or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

(d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, the Borrower, other Loan Parties or other obligors;

191

(e) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of the Borrower to its creditors other than the Guaranteed Creditors;

(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of the Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors regardless of what liability or liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid;

(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Hedging Obligation or any Cash Management Obligation in each case, constituting Secured Obligations, or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein or therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Hedging Obligation or any Cash Management Obligation or any of such other instruments or agreements; and/or

(h) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of Holdings from its liabilities under this Holdings Guaranty (other than repayment or performance).

Section 10.05. Reliance. It is not necessary for any Guaranteed Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Guaranteed Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

Section 10.06. Subordination. Any Indebtedness of the Borrower now or hereafter owing to Holdings is hereby subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations owing to the Guaranteed Creditors until the occurrence of the Termination Date; and if the Administrative Agent so requests (in accordance with Section 7.01) at a time when an Event of Default exists, all such Indebtedness of the Borrower to Holdings shall be collected, enforced and received by Holdings for the benefit of the Guaranteed Creditors and be paid over to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Guaranteed Creditors on account of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of Holdings under the other provisions of this Holdings Guaranty (other than to the extent of such repayment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Holdings hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Holdings Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent obligations, Hedging Obligations or Cash Management Obligations) have been paid in full.

Section 10.07. Waiver. (a) Holdings waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable law and cannot be waived) to require any Guaranteed Creditor to (i) proceed against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party or

192

(iii) pursue any other remedy in any Guaranteed Creditor’s power whatsoever. Holdings waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other Person, other than payment of the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such payment, based on or arising out of the disability of the Borrower, Holdings, any other guarantor or any other party, or the validity, legality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower other than payment of the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such payment. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Guaranteed Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Guaranteed Creditors may have against the Borrower or any other Person, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of Holdings hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Holdings waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Guaranteed Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of Holdings against the Borrower or any other Person or any security.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, Holdings waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Holdings Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations. Holdings assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which Holdings assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the other Guaranteed Creditors shall have any duty to advise Holdings of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

(c) Holdings warrants and agrees that each of the waivers set forth above is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences and that if any of such waivers are determined to be contrary to any applicable law of public policy, such waivers shall be effective only to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Section 10.08. Payments. All payments made by Holdings pursuant to this Article X shall be made in Dollars and will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, and shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.19 and 2.20.

Section 10.09. Maximum Liability. It is the desire and intent of Holdings and the Guaranteed Creditors that this Holdings Guaranty shall be enforced against Holdings to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If, however, and to the extent that, the obligations of Holdings under this Holdings Guaranty shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then the amount of Holdings’ obligations under this Holdings

193

Guaranty shall be deemed to be reduced and Holdings shall pay the maximum amount of the Guaranteed Obligations which would be permissible under applicable law.
