In the event that any financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.1 or a Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(c) are shown to be inaccurate at any time that this Agreement is in effect and any Loans or Commitments are outstanding hereunder when such inaccuracy is discovered and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to a higher Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, then (i) the Borrower shall promptly (and in no event later than five (5) Business Days thereafter) deliver to the Administrative Agent a correct Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) from and after the date such corrected Compliance Certificate is delivered, the Applicable Margin shall be determined by reference to the corrected Compliance Certificate (but in no event shall the Lenders owe any amounts to the Borrower) and (iii) the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent promptly (and in no event later than ten Business Days after knowledge by the chief financial officer or treasurer of the Borrower that such payment is due) any additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof. This paragraph will not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any additional interest hereunder shall not be due and payable until such payment is due pursuant to clause (iii) above and accordingly, any nonpayment of such interest as a result of any such inaccuracy shall not constitute a Default (whether retroactively or otherwise), and no such amounts shall be deemed overdue (and no amounts shall accrue interest at the default rate set forth in Section 2.14(c)), at any time prior to the date that is ten Business Days following such knowledge by the chief financial officer or treasurer of the Borrower.

“Applicable Period” as defined in the definition of “Applicable Margin.”

“Applicable Requirements”: in respect of any Indebtedness, Indebtedness that satisfies the following requirements:

(a) subject to the Permitted Earlier Maturity Indebtedness Exception, such Indebtedness (x) except in connection with a Qualifying Bridge Facility, does not mature prior to the then Latest Maturity Date applicable to outstanding Term Loans, does not have any greater scheduled amortization than that which is applicable to the Term Loans and is not subject to mandatory redemption or prepayment (except, in each case, (i) customary asset sale or change of control provisions or (ii) other mandatory redemptions that are also made or offered, on a pro rata basis, to holders of outstanding Term Loans that are First Lien Obligations) and (y) except in connection with a customary high-yield bridge facility, so long as the long-term debt into which any such customary bridge facility is to be converted or exchanged satisfies this clause (a) and any such conversion or exchange is subject only to customary conditions for similar conversions or exchanges (a “Qualifying Bridge Facility”), does not have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any then outstanding Term Loans (without giving effect to any prepayments that would otherwise modify the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans);

(b) if such Indebtedness is secured by the Collateral, a Senior Representative acting on behalf of the holders of such Indebtedness has become, or is, party to an Intercreditor Agreement, which results in such Senior Representative having rights to share in the Collateral on a pari passu or junior basis, as applicable;

(c) to the extent such Indebtedness is secured, it is not secured by any property or assets of any Loan Party or any other Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Collateral except for exclusions with respect to cash collateral customary for pre-funded (and similar) letter of credit facilities, as applicable and Escrowed Proceeds) (it being agreed that such Indebtedness shall not be required to be secured by all of the Collateral); provided that Indebtedness that may be Incurred by Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries pursuant to Section 7.2 may be secured by assets of Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries;

(d) if such Indebtedness is Incurred by (i) any Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, such Indebtedness shall not be guaranteed by any Loan Party or (ii) the Borrower or any Guarantor, such Indebtedness shall not be guaranteed by any Person other than the Borrower or Guarantors; and

(e) the other terms and conditions of such Indebtedness (excluding pricing, fees, rate floors, discounts, premiums, optional prepayment or optional redemption provisions and financial covenants), if more restrictive on the Group Members, taken as a whole, than the terms of the Initial Term Loans or the Revolving Commitments in existence as of the Closing Date, as applicable, are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, it being understood and agreed that the determination as to whether such terms and conditions are more restrictive on the Group Members, taken as a whole, than the terms of the Initial Term Loans or the Revolving Commitments in existence as of the Closing Date, as applicable, shall exclude any terms and conditions which are (1) only applicable after the Latest Maturity Date and/or (2) incorporated into this Agreement (or any other applicable Loan Document) pursuant to an amendment executed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower for the benefit of all existing Lenders (to the extent applicable), it being understood and agreed that such amendment shall require no additional consent;

provided that if an Officer’s Certificate signed on behalf of the Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent for posting to the Lenders at least five (5) Business Days (or a shorter period acceptable to the Administrative Agent) prior to the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, together with a reasonably detailed description of the material terms and conditions of such Indebtedness or drafts of the documentation relating thereto, stating that the Borrower has determined in good faith that such terms and conditions satisfy the requirements of this definition, and the Required Lenders shall not have notified the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that they disagree with such determination within such five (5) Business Day period (including a statement of the basis upon which each such Lender disagrees), then such certificate shall be conclusive evidence that such terms and conditions satisfy the requirements of this definition.

Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Borrower may designate.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise specified herein, each date indicated in any Loan Document to fall on a Business Day, if such date is not a Business Day, shall instead fall on the next succeeding Business Day.

(f) Prior to the first delivery of financial statements under Section 6.1, any ratio or other financial metric that is measured based on the most recent financial statements delivered or required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.1 (including any such metric measured by reference to a Test Period) shall instead be based on the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(c).

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise specified or the context indicates otherwise, all Financial Definitions and the definition of Excess Cash Flow (including any defined term or section reference included therein) referred to in the Loan Documents shall be calculated with reference to the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, determined on a consolidated basis.

(h) For the purposes of Sections 7.5 and 7.8, an allocation of assets to a division of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a limited liability company, or an allocation of assets to a series of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a limited liability company, shall be treated as a transfer of assets from one Restricted Subsidiary to another Restricted Subsidiary.

1.3 Accounting. For purposes of all Financial Definitions and calculations in the Loan Documents, including the determination of Excess Cash Flow, there shall be excluded for any period the effects of purchase accounting (including the effects of such adjustments pushed down to the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries) in component amounts required or permitted by GAAP and related authoritative pronouncements (including the effects of such adjustments pushed down to the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries), as a result of the Transactions, any acquisition consummated prior to the Closing Date, any Permitted Acquisition, or the amortization or write-off of any amounts thereof.

If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio, standard or term set forth in any Loan Document, and the Borrower or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio, standard or term to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to approval by the Borrower); provided that, until so amended, such ratio, standard or term shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP immediately prior to such change therein and the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders within five (5) days after delivery of each certificate or financial report required hereunder that is affected thereby a written statement of the Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail the differences (including any differences that would affect any calculations relating to the financial covenants as set forth in Section 7.1) that would have resulted if such financial statements had been prepared giving effect to such change; provided, that, to the extent any such change would have a negative impact on the Borrower with respect to any ratio, financial calculation, financial reporting items or requirement computation, the Borrower may (in its sole discretion) elect to compute or report such ratio, financial calculation, financial reporting item or requirement in accordance with GAAP and/or the Applicable Tax Laws, as the case may be, as changed and accordingly, if such an election is made, the Borrower shall not be required to deliver the written statement described in the immediately preceding proviso with respect thereto.

1.4 Limited Condition Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any action (including any Limited Condition Transaction itself) being taken solely in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of:

(a) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires the calculation of any financial ratio or test, including the Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Total Net Leverage Ratio, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and/or Debt Service Coverage Ratio;

(b) testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Net Income);

(d) the making of any representations or warranties (other than pursuant to a borrowing under the Revolving Facility),

in each case, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted under the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for (or in the case of a Limited Condition Transaction that involves some other manner of establishing a binding obligation under local law, such other binding obligations to consummate), or irrevocable notice of, such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any Incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) on a Pro Forma Basis as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recently completed Test Period ending prior to the LCT Test Date, the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, basket, test, Default or Event of Default “blocker” or making of representations and warranties, such ratio, basket, test, Default or Event of Default “blocker” or making of representations and warranties shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, baskets, tests, Default or Event of Default “blocker” or making of representations and warranties for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, basket, test, Default or Event of Default “blocker” or making of representations and warranties, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, ratios, tests, Default or Event of Default “blocker” or making of representations and warranties will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations.

1.5 Financial Ratio Calculations. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of the Loan Documents under a specific covenant that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including a test based on the Debt Service Coverage Ratio, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio and/or the Total Net Leverage Ratio) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of the Loan Documents under the same covenant that requires compliance with a financial ratio or test (including a test based on the Debt Service Coverage Ratio, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio and/or the Total Net Leverage Ratio) (any such amounts, the “Incurrence-Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that (a) the Fixed Amounts shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence-Based Amounts, and (b) except as provided in clause (a), the entire transaction shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis. In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, any Indebtedness (and associated Liens, subject to the applicable priorities required pursuant to the applicable Incurrence-Based Amounts), Investments, liquidations, dissolutions, mergers, consolidations, dividends, or any prepayments of Indebtedness incurred or otherwise effected in reliance on Fixed Amounts may be reclassified at any time, as the Borrower may elect from time to time, as incurred under the applicable Incurrence-Based Amounts if the Borrower together with the Restricted Subsidiaries subsequently meets the applicable ratio for such Incurrence-Based Amounts on a Pro Forma Basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Revolving Borrowings are not “Fixed Amounts.”

1.6 Currency Equivalents Generally.

(a) The Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit as of each date (with such date to be reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent) that is on or about the date of each request for the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, using the Exchange Rate for the applicable currency in relation to Dollars in effect on the date of determination, and each such amount shall be the Dollar Equivalent of such Letter of Credit until the next required calculation thereof pursuant to this Section 1.6(a).

(b) The Dollar Equivalent of any L/C Borrowing made by any Issuing Lender in any Alternative Currency and not reimbursed by the Borrower shall be determined as set forth in Section 3.5. In addition, the Dollar Equivalent of the L/C Exposure shall be determined as set forth in Section 3.9, at the time and in the circumstances specified therein.

(c) The Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lenders, as applicable, shall notify the Borrower, the applicable Lenders and the applicable Issuing Lender of each calculation of the Dollar Equivalent of each Letter of Credit denominated in any Alternative Currency and each Borrowing in any Alternative Currency.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with Sections 7.2, 7.3 and 7.6 with respect to any amount of Indebtedness or Investment in a currency other than Dollars, no Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of changes in rates of exchange occurring after the time such Lien, Indebtedness or Investment is incurred; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.6 shall otherwise apply to such Sections, including with respect to determining whether any Indebtedness or Investment may be incurred at any time under such Sections.

(e) For purposes of determining compliance under Sections 7.5 and 7.6, any amount in a currency other than Dollars will be converted to Dollars in a manner consistent with that used in calculating net income in the Borrower’s annual financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(a); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to apply to the determination of any amount of Indebtedness.

(f) For purposes of determining compliance with any restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the Dollar Equivalent of the principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the Exchange Rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to extend, replace, refund, refinance, renew or defease other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such extension, replacement, refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance would cause the applicable restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such extension, replacement, refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance, such restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being extended, replaced, refunded, refinanced, renewed or defeased.

1.7 Treatment of Subsidiaries Prior to Joinder.

Each Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to be joined as a Loan Party pursuant to Section 6.9 shall, until the completion of such joinder, be deemed for the purposes of Section 7 of this Agreement to be a Loan Party from and after the Closing Date (or the date of formation or acquisition of such subsidiary).

1.8 Interest Rates; Eurocurrency Notification.

The interest rate on Eurocurrency Loans is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurocurrency Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, Section 2.16(c) and (d) provide the mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable parties as and when required by Section 2.16(f), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurocurrency Loans is based. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “Eurocurrency Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.16(c) or (d), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.16(e), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the Eurocurrency Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability other than, in each case, to the extent of the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision. Nothing in this Section shall constitute a representation or warranty by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries nor can it constitute the basis of any Default or Event of Default.

1.9 Divisions.

For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its equity interests at such time.

SECTION 2.

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS

2.1 Term Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Term Lender severally agrees to make a single Term Loan to the Borrower on the Closing Date in Dollars and in an amount not to exceed the amount of the Term Commitment of such Lender on the Closing Date. The Term Loans may from time to time be Eurocurrency Loans or ABR Loans, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.12. The Term Commitments in effect on the Closing Date shall automatically terminate at 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on the Closing Date. Once borrowed and repaid, no Term Loan may be re-borrowed.

2.2 Procedure for Borrowing Term Loans. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit H or such other form as may be approved by the Administrative Agent (including (x) any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent and (y) by written notice), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent no later than (A) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the anticipated Closing Date, in the case of ABR Loans, (B) 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), one Business Day prior to the anticipated Closing Date, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans (in each case or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent reasonably shall agree), requesting that the Term Lenders make the Initial Term Loans on the Closing Date and specifying (i) the amount to be borrowed, (ii) the Type of Loan, (iii) the applicable Interest Period, (iv) instructions for remittance of the Term Loans to be borrowed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such notices may be conditioned on the occurrence of the Closing Date or, with respect to Term Loans borrowed after the Closing Date, may be conditioned on the occurrence of any transaction utilizing such Term Loans. Upon receipt of such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Term Lender thereof. Not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Closing Date, each such Term Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Term Loan or Term Loans to be made by such Lender. Such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting such account or by wire transfer as is designated in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower (or as otherwise directed by the Borrower), with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Term Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

2.3 Repayment of Term Loans.

(a) The principal amount of the Initial Term Loans of each Term Lender shall be repaid by the Borrower (i) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December (commencing on December 31, 2020), in an amount equal to 0.25% of the sum of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans on the Closing Date (which payments shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth in Section 2.17(b)) and (ii) on the Term Loan Maturity Date, in an amount equal to the aggregate Outstanding Amount on such date, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

(b) To the extent not previously paid, (i) each Incremental Term Loan shall be due and payable on the Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date applicable to such Incremental Term Loan, (ii) each Other Term Loan shall be due and payable on the maturity date thereof as set forth in the Refinancing Amendment applicable thereto and (iii) each Extended Term Loan shall be due and payable on the maturity date thereof as set forth in the Permitted Amendment applicable thereto together, in each case, with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of payment.

2.4 Revolving Commitments.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make revolving credit loans (“Revolving Loans”) to the Borrower in Dollars (or, with respect to any Incremental Revolving Loans, in an Approved Currency) from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount which, when added to such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the sum of (i) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations at such time and (ii) the

aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans at such time, does not exceed the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment. During the Revolving Commitment Period the Borrower may use the Revolving Commitments by borrowing, repaying or prepaying the Revolving Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The Revolving Loans may from time to time be Eurocurrency Loans or ABR Loans, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.5 and 2.12.

(b) The Borrower shall repay all outstanding Revolving Loans on the Revolving Termination Date, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the Revolving Loans, to but excluding the date of payment.

2.5 Procedure for Borrowing of Revolving Loans. The Borrower may borrow under the Revolving Commitments during the Revolving Commitment Period on any Business Day, provided that the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to (a) 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans or (b) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the requested date of such Borrowing, in the case of ABR Loans (in each case or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent acting reasonably shall agree) and which notice shall be by written notice), specifying (i) the amount, Class, currency and Type of Revolving Loans to be borrowed, (ii) the requested Borrowing Date, (iii) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, the respective amounts of each such Type of Loan and the respective lengths of the initial Interest Period therefor and (iv) instructions for remittance of the applicable Loans to be borrowed; provided, however, that if the Borrower wishes to request Eurocurrency Loans having an Interest Period other than one, two, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) four (4) Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent acting reasonably shall agree) prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) three (3) Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such notices may be conditioned on the occurrence of the Closing Date, or with respect to Revolving Loans made pursuant to Revolving Commitments that become effective after the Closing Date, may be conditioned on the occurrence of any transaction utilizing the applicable Revolving Loans. Each borrowing under the Revolving Commitments shall be in a principal amount of the Borrowing Minimum or a whole multiple of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof; provided that the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender may request, on behalf of the Borrower, borrowings under the Revolving Commitments that are ABR Loans in other amounts pursuant to Section 2.7. Upon receipt of any such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof. Each Revolving Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower designated in the applicable notice of Borrowing prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting such account or by wire transfer as is designated in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Revolving Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

2.6 Designated Acquisition Swingline Commitment.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, make a portion of the credit otherwise available to the Borrower under the Revolving Commitments held by the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period in the form of the assumption or guarantee by the Borrower of BRP Acquisition Indebtedness (“Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans”); provided that (i) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans at any time shall not exceed the Designated Acquisition Swingline Commitment then in effect (notwithstanding that the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans at any time, when aggregated with the Outstanding Amount of the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender’s other Revolving Loans, may exceed the Designated Acquisition Swingline Commitment then in effect) and (ii) the Borrower shall not request, and the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender shall not hold, any Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan if, after giving effect to such Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan, the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments of the Lenders would be less than zero. During the Revolving Commitment Period, the Designated Acquisition Swingline Commitment will be revolving in nature and the Borrower may utilize it for Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans, repay Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans and utilize it again for Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans shall be ABR Loans only and shall be subject to the conditions set forth in the definition of “BRP C Corp Acquisition Indebtedness.”

(b) The Borrower shall repay to the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan within seven Business Days after the assumption or guarantee thereof by the Borrower, but in no event later than the Revolving Termination Date.

2.7 Procedure for Designated Acquisition Swingline Borrowing; Refunding of Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans.

(a) Except to the extent set forth in the definition of BRP C Corp Acquisition Indebtedness, whenever a Borrower desires that BRP C Corp Acquisition Indebtedness held by the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender be assumed or guaranteed by the Borrower and be treated as Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans, the Borrower shall give the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender irrevocable written notice (which notice must be received by the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the three Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date, or such shorter notice period as is acceptable to the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender) substantially in the form of Exhibit H or such other form as may be approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower specifying (i) the amount to be assumed or guaranteed and (ii) the requested Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period). Each utilization of the Designated Acquisition Swingline Commitment shall be in an amount equal the Borrowing Minimum or a whole multiple of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof and meet the requirements of BRP C Corp Acquisition Indebtedness. Promptly thereafter, on the Borrowing Date specified in the notice in respect of Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans, the BRP C Corp Acquisition Indebtedness shall be assumed or guaranteed by the Borrower and be treated as a Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan hereunder.

(b) Unless the Borrower and the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender otherwise agree, the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender shall, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), give notice no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time on the Business Day prior to the date that an outstanding Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan is to become due pursuant to Section 2.6(b), requesting each Revolving Lender to make, and each Revolving Lender hereby agrees to make, a Revolving Loan, in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of such Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan (the “Refunded Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan”) on such due date, to repay the

Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender. Each Revolving Lender shall make the amount of such Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, one (1) Business Day after the date of such notice. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be immediately made available by the Administrative Agent to the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender for application by the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender to the repayment of the Refunded Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan.

(c) If prior to the time a Revolving Loan would have otherwise been made pursuant to Section 2.7(b), one of the events described in Section 9.1(g) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower or if for any other reason, as determined by the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender in its sole discretion, Revolving Loans may not be made as contemplated by Section 2.7(b), each Revolving Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Loan was to have been made pursuant to the notice referred to in Section 2.7(b) or upon the request of the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender, purchase for cash an undivided participating interest in the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans by paying to the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender an amount (the “Designated Acquisition Swingline Participation Amount”) equal to (i) such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage times (ii) the sum of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans at such time that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Loans or that the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender otherwise requests Revolving Lenders to purchase participation interests in.

(d) Whenever, at any time after the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender has received from any Revolving Lender such Lender’s Designated Acquisition Swingline Participation Amount, the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender receives any payment on account of the Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans, the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its Designated Acquisition Swingline Participation Amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Lender’s pro rata portion of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans then due); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Lender will return to the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender.

(e) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make the Loans referred to in Section 2.7(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 2.7(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Lender or the Borrower may have against the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Revolving Lender or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 2.6 and 2.7 or elsewhere in this Agreement, (i) the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender shall not be obligated to make any Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan at a time when a Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender unless the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender has entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it and the Borrower to eliminate the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender’s risk with respect to the Defaulting Lender’s or Defaulting Lenders’ participation in such Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans, including by cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s or Defaulting Lenders’ Pro

Rata Share of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans at such time and (ii) the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender shall not make any Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan after it has received written notice from the Borrower, any other Loan Party or the Required Lenders stating that a Default or an Event of Default exists and is continuing until such time as the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender shall have received written notice (A) of rescission of all such notices from the party or parties originally delivering such notice or notices or (B) of the waiver of such Default or Event of Default in accordance with Section 11.1.

2.8 Commitment Fees, etc.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender, in accordance with its Revolving Percentage, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Commitment Fee Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Total Revolving Commitments exceed the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.25. For the avoidance of doubt, the Outstanding Amount of Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans shall not be counted towards or considered usage of the Revolving Commitments of all Lenders for purposes of determining the Commitment Fee. The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the Revolving Commitment Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Section 5 is not satisfied, and shall be due and payable in arrears on each applicable Fee Payment Date. The Commitment Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Commitment Fee Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Commitment Fee Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Commitment Fee Rate was in effect.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers (and their respective affiliates) the fees in the amounts and on the dates set forth in any fee agreements with such Persons and to perform any other obligations contained therein.

2.9 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than one Business Days’ notice (to the extent there are no Eurocurrency Loans that are Revolving Loans outstanding at such time) or not less than three (3) Business Days’ notice (in any other case) to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Commitments; provided that if any such notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments indicates that such termination is to be conditioned on one or more conditions precedent, such notice of termination may be revoked or automatically terminated if such conditions precedent are not met. Any termination or reduction of Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall be accompanied by prepayment of the Revolving Loans and/or Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans to the extent, if any, that the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit exceed the amount of the Total Revolving Commitments as so reduced; provided that if the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans and Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans at such time is less than the amount of such excess (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion thereof), the Borrower shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess, Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit, in each case, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to the Borrowing Minimum or a whole multiple of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof or, if less than the Borrowing Minimum, the amount of the Revolving Commitments, or a whole multiple thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Commitments then in effect. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section 2.9 (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans (to the extent all Revolving Loans are not being prepaid) and Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.

2.10 Optional Prepayments.

(a) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, in each case, without premium or penalty, upon notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit E or such other form as may be approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) three (3) Business Days prior to the prepayment date, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, and no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the prepayment date, in the case of ABR Loans; provided that if a Eurocurrency Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.21; provided, further, that such notice shall be irrevocable unless such notice of prepayment indicates that such prepayment is conditioned upon one or more conditions precedent, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked or automatically terminated if such conditions precedent are not satisfied and any Eurocurrency Loan that was the subject of such notice shall be continued as an ABR Loan. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans and Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans, other than in connection with a repayment of all Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of (x) in the case of ABR Loans, the Borrowing Minimum or a whole multiple of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof or (y) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, the Borrowing Minimum or a whole multiple of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof. Partial prepayments of Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple of $10,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that, on or prior to the date that is six months after the Closing Date, the Borrower (x) makes any prepayment of Initial Term Loans with the proceeds of any Repricing Transaction described under clause (i) of the definition of “Repricing Transaction”, or (y) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction under clause (ii) of the definition of “Repricing Transaction”, the Borrower shall on the date of such prepayment or amendment, as applicable, pay to each Lender (I) in the case of such clause (x), 1.00% of the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans so prepaid and (II) in the case of such clause (y), 1.00% of the aggregate amount of the Initial Term Loans affected by such Repricing Transaction and outstanding on the effective date of such amendment.

2.11 Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions.

(a) If any Indebtedness shall be Incurred by any Group Member (other than any Indebtedness permitted to be Incurred by any such Person in accordance with Section 7.2 (other than Specified Refinancing Indebtedness), an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds within one (1) Business Day after the receipt of such proceeds, shall be applied on the date of such issuance or Incurrence toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in clause (g) of this Section 2.11.

(b) Subject to clause (d) of this Section 2.11, if, for any Excess Cash Flow Period, there shall be Excess Cash Flow, an amount equal to (i) the ECF Percentage for such period of such Excess Cash Flow minus (ii) $5,000,000 minus (iii) at the election of the Borrower, to the extent not funded with (x) the proceeds of Indebtedness constituting “long term indebtedness” (or a comparable caption) under GAAP (other than Indebtedness in respect of any revolving credit facility) or (y) the proceeds of Permitted Cure Securities applied pursuant to Section 9.3, the aggregate amount of (1) all Purchases by any Permitted Auction Purchaser (determined by the actual cash purchase price paid by such Permitted Auction Purchaser

for such Purchase and not the par value of the Loans purchased by such Permitted Auction Purchaser) pursuant to a Dutch Auction permitted hereunder, (2) voluntary prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Loans (but, in the case of Revolving Loans, only to the extent of a concurrent and permanent reduction in the Revolving Commitments) (including pursuant to Section 2.23), (3) voluntary prepayments and repurchases (to the extent of the actual cash purchase price paid for such loan buyback and not the par value) (including any “yanks” of non-consenting lenders thereunder) of Indebtedness (other than the Obligations) that constitutes First Lien Obligations made by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and (4) the aggregate amount of Additional ECF Reduction Amounts, in the case of clauses (1) through (4) above, during the Excess Cash Flow Period or, at the election of the Borrower in its sole discretion and without duplication with future periods, following such Excess Cash Flow Period and prior to such Excess Cash Flow Application Date (and including the amount of any such prepayments and repurchases made in any previous Excess Cash Flow Period and not applied with respect to such previous Excess Cash Flow Period or any successive previous Excess Cash Flow Period to reduce Excess Cash Flow payment obligations) shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, be applied toward the prepayment of (A) the Loans as set forth in clause (g) of this Section 2.11 or, solely to the extent permitted by this section, (B) at the Borrower’s option, the prepayment of outstanding Indebtedness that constitutes First Lien Obligations (collectively, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”). Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders. Any such amount of Excess Cash Flow may be applied to Other Applicable Indebtedness only to (and not in excess of) the extent to which a mandatory prepayment is required under the terms of such Other Applicable Indebtedness (with any remaining Excess Cash Flow applied to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof), unless such application would result in the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness receiving in excess of their pro rata share (determined on the basis of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Term Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time) of such Excess Cash Flow relative to Term Lenders, in which case such Excess Cash Flow may only be applied to Other Applicable Indebtedness on a pro rata basis with outstanding Term Loans. To the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such Indebtedness repurchased, repaid or prepaid with any such Excess Cash Flow, the declined amount of such Excess Cash Flow shall promptly (and, in any event, within ten (10) Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof (to the extent such Excess Cash Flow would otherwise have been required to be applied if such Other Applicable Indebtedness was not then outstanding).

(c) Subject to clause (d) of this Section 2.11, if, on any date, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or any Recovery Event in excess of $5,000,000 in any fiscal year, then, unless the Borrower has determined in good faith that such Net Cash Proceeds shall be reinvested in its business (a “Reinvestment Event”), an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within five (5) Business Days of such date to prepay (A) outstanding Term Loans in accordance with this Section 2.11 and (B) at the Borrower’s option Other Applicable Indebtedness; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, within five (5) Business Days following each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to any Asset Sale or Recovery Event, shall be applied to prepay the outstanding Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(g); provided, further, that the Borrower may elect to deem expenditures that would otherwise be permissible reinvestments pursuant to this clause (c) that occur within 90 days prior to the actual receipt of Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event to have been reinvested in accordance with the provisions hereof so long as such expenditure has been made no earlier that the earliest of (1) notice to the Administrative Agent of such Asset Sale or Recovery Event (it being agreed that the Administrative Agent will not distribute such notice to the lenders until the occurrence of (2) or (3) as follows), (2) the execution of a definitive agreement for such Asset Sale or (3) the consummation of such Asset Sale or the occurrence of such Recovery Event. Any such Net Cash Proceeds may be applied to

100

Other Applicable Indebtedness only to (and not in excess of) the extent to which a mandatory prepayment in respect of such Asset Sale or Recovery Event is required under the terms of such Other Applicable Indebtedness (with any remaining Net Cash Proceeds applied to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof), unless such application would result in the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness receiving in excess of their pro rata share (determined on the basis of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Term Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time) of such Net Cash Proceeds relative to Term Lenders, in which case such Net Cash Proceeds may only be applied to Other Applicable Indebtedness on a pro rata basis with outstanding Term Loans. To the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such indebtedness repurchased, repaid or prepaid with any such Net Cash Proceeds, the declined amount of such Net Cash Proceeds shall promptly (and, in any event, within ten (10) Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof (to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds would otherwise have been required to be applied if such Other Applicable Indebtedness was not then outstanding).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including clauses (a), (b) and (c) above), to the extent that the Borrower has determined in good faith that (i) any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale or Recovery Event by a Subsidiary or Excess Cash Flow attributable to Subsidiaries (or branches of Subsidiaries) are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the relevant Borrower(s) (including financial assistance and corporate benefit restrictions and fiduciary and statutory duties of the relevant directors), (ii) such repatriation would present a material risk of liability for the applicable Subsidiary or its directors or officers (or gives rise to a material risk of breach of fiduciary or statutory duties by any director or officers) or (iii) in the case of Foreign Subsidiaries (including repatriation or distributions that would be made through Foreign Subsidiaries), such repatriation or any distribution of the relevant amounts would result in material adverse tax consequences, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Loans at the times set forth in this Section 2.11 but may be retained by the applicable Subsidiary or branch (the Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Subsidiary or branch to promptly take commercially reasonable actions to permit such repatriation without violating applicable local law or incurring material adverse tax consequences; (provided, however, that no such commercially reasonable actions shall be required to be taken later than twelve (12) months after the applicable Indebtedness Incurrence, Asset Sale, Recovery Event or (with respect to any such Excess Cash Flow) the last day of the applicable Excess Cash Flow Period)) provided, that for a period of 365 days from receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, if such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow becomes permitted under such applicable local law, would not present a material risk as described in clause (ii) above, or no such material adverse tax consequences would result from such distribution, such distribution will be promptly affected and such distributed Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than ten (10) Business Days after such distribution) applied (net of additional Taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11.

(e) In the event the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations and Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans at any time exceeds (the “Revolving Excess”) the Total Revolving Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall promptly repay Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans and Collateralize Letters of Credit to the extent necessary to remove such Revolving Excess.

(f) The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit E or such other form as may be approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, of each prepayment required under this Section 2.11 (other than prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(a)), which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not less than three (3) Business Days (or such shorter time as the

101

Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree) prior to the date such prepayment shall be made. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of such notice. Each such Lender may reject all of its Pro Rata Share of the prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower no later than (i) 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the date of such Lender’s receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent, if such notice is received prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, and (ii) 12:00 p.m., New York City time on the date following such Lender’s receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent, if such notice is received after 11:00 a.m. New York City time. If a Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above, such failure will be deemed an acceptance of such prepayment. Subject to any requirements of any other Indebtedness, any Declined Proceeds may be retained by the Borrower (such retained amount, the “Retained Declined Proceeds”). Each notice delivered pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (f) shall, as applicable, set forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment.

(g) Amounts to be applied in connection with any prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.11 (other than Section 2.11(e)) shall be applied to the prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.17(b). The application of any prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be made on a pro rata basis within any Class of Loans regardless of Type. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section 2.11 (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans (to the extent all Revolving Loans are not being prepaid)) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.

(h) Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 2.11, if any prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans is required to be made under this Section 2.11 other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, deposit the amount of any such prepayment otherwise required to be made thereunder with the Administrative Agent, to be held as security for the obligations of the Borrower to make such prepayment pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Eurocurrency Loans in accordance with this Section 2.11 (determined as of the date such prepayment was required to be originally made); provided that such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans shall continue to bear interest in accordance with Section 2.15 until such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans have been prepaid. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the applicable Eurocurrency Loans in accordance with this Section 2.11 (determined as of the date such prepayment was required to be originally made). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any amounts held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this subsection (h) pending application to any Eurocurrency Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of such Eurocurrency Loans prior to any other application of such amounts as may be provided for herein.

2.12 Conversion and Continuation Options.

(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable written notice of such election substantially in the form of Exhibit H or such other form as approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, no later than 12:00 p.m. Local Time, three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed conversion date. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior

102

irrevocable written notice of such election substantially in the form of Exhibit H or such other form as approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor); provided, further, that if the Borrower wishes to request Eurocurrency Loans having an Interest Period other than one, two, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing conversion, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is approved by all of them. Not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time), two (2) Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing conversion, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Lenders; provided, further that, no ABR Loan may be converted into a Eurocurrency Loan when a bankruptcy or payment Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting any conversion from one Type of Loan to another, then the applicable Loans shall be continued as, or converted to, Eurocurrency Loans with a one-month Interest Period. Any such automatic conversion to ABR Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurocurrency Loans.

(b) Any Eurocurrency Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent , substantially in the form of Exhibit H or such other form as approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the proposed continuation date in the case of Eurocurrency Loans; provided, further that, to the extent the Required Lenders provide written notice thereof to the Borrower, no Eurocurrency Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph, such Loans shall be automatically continued as Eurocurrency Loans with a one-month Interest Period on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period, and if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso, such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then-expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

2.13 Limitations on Eurocurrency Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurocurrency Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, (a) the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, and (b)(i) in the case of Term Loans, no more than five Eurocurrency Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time and (ii) in the case of Revolving Loans, no more than 10 Eurocurrency Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

2.14 Interest Rates and Payment Dates.

(a) Each Eurocurrency Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin.

103

(b) Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.14 plus 2% and (ii) if all or a portion of (x) any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, (y) any Commitment Fee or (z) any other amount payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility plus 2% (or, in the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2%), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

(d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to Section 2.14(c) shall be payable from time to time on demand.

2.15 Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to ABR Loans, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurocurrency Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Alternate Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to an ABR Loan being converted from a Eurocurrency Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurocurrency Loan to such ABR Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to an ABR Loan being converted to a Eurocurrency Loan, the date of conversion of such ABR Loan to such Eurocurrency Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.14.

2.16 Inability to Determine Interest Rate; Illegality.

(a) If prior to the first day of any Interest Period (i) the Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period; provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time, or (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the

104

relevant Facility that the Eurocurrency Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurocurrency component of the Alternate Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurocurrency Rate component in determining the Alternate Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until such time as the Administrative Agent (upon the approval of the Majority Facility Lenders which approval the Administrative Agent agrees to seek promptly once it reasonably believes such condition no longer exists) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans in the amount specified therein.

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

(i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Loans or to convert ABR to Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended, and

(ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining ABR Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender, shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate,

in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) above until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay (solely if requirement by a Requirement of Law) or, if applicable, convert all of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans (the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate) either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loans. In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 2.16(b), all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurocurrency Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurocurrency Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the Alternate Base Rate Loans (if applicable) made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurocurrency Loans. For purposes of this Section 2.16(b), a notice to the Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurocurrency Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan; in all other cases, such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Borrower.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (it being understood that Swap Agreements are not to be “Loan Documents”), if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a

105

Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this clause (d) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice.

(e) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(f) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (g) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.16, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.16.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or Adjusted LIBO Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a

106

Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(h) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR.

2.17 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any Commitment Fee and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata to the relevant Lenders of any Class according to the respective Term Percentages, Incremental Term Percentages or Revolving Percentages, as the case may be, of the relevant Lenders of such Class.

(b) Each payment (including each voluntary or mandatory prepayment) on account of principal of and interest on any Class of the Term Loans shall be made pro rata to the Term Lenders of such Class according to the respective Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans then held by the Term Lenders of such Class. The amount of each optional prepayment of the Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.10 shall be applied as directed by the Borrower in the notice described in Section 2.10 and, if no direction is given by the Borrower, in the direct order of maturity and to the Term Loans of the Borrower on a pro rata basis. The amount of each mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11 shall be applied as directed by the Borrower in the notice described in Section 2.11 and to the Term Loans of the Borrower on a pro-rata basis (other than in the case of Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt, the proceeds of which shall be applied to the applicable Class on a pro rata basis) and, if no direction is given by the Borrower, in the direct order of maturity. Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata to the Revolving Lenders according to the respective Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders.

(c) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10017, for the account of the Lenders, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Any payments received after such time shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day at the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date

107

therefor (a “Funding Default”), such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with (without duplication of any such amounts ultimately received from such Lender, and any interest thereon) interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower are making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.

2.18 Requirements of Law.

(a) Subject to clause (c) of this Section 2.18, if any Change in Law shall (i) subject any Lender to any Tax with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Application or any Eurocurrency Loan made by it (except for any Indemnified Taxes or Excluded Taxes), (ii) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurocurrency Rate or (iii) impose on such Lender any other condition, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender by an amount that such Lender reasonably deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurocurrency Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

(b) Subject to clause (c) of this Section 2.18, if any Lender shall have determined that compliance by such Lender (or any corporation controlling such Lender) with any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Loans or Letters of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then from

108

time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.18(b)), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including clauses (a) and (b) above), reimbursement pursuant to this Section 2.18 for (A) increased costs arising from any market disruption (i) shall be limited to circumstances generally affecting the banking market and (ii) may only be requested by Lenders representing the Majority Facility Lenders with respect to the applicable Facility and (B) increased costs because of any Change in Law resulting from clause (x) or (y) of the proviso to the definition of “Change in Law” may only be requested by a Lender imposing such increased costs on borrowers similarly situated to the Borrower under syndicated credit facilities comparable to those provided hereunder. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the additional amount shown as due on any such certificate promptly after, and in any event within, ten (10) Business Days of, receipt thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any amounts incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.19 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. All payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law, as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent, requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, the applicable withholding agent shall make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. Without duplication of any obligation under Section 2.19(a), the Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Indemnification by Borrower. Without duplication of any obligation under Section 2.19(a) or (b), the Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable and documented, out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be

109

conclusive absent manifest error. Such written demand shall be made no later than 180 days after the earlier of (1) the date on which the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, received written demand for payment of the applicable Indemnified Taxes from the relevant Governmental Authority or (2) the date on which the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, paid the applicable Indemnified Taxes; provided that failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, to make such written demand shall not constitute a waiver of the right of the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, to demand indemnity and reimbursement for such Indemnified Taxes, except to the extent that such failure or delay results in prejudice to the Borrower.

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

(e) Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.19 in clauses (e)(ii)(1), (e)(ii)(2), and (e)(ii)(4) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(1) any Lender that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(2) any Lender that is not a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

110

(A)

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

(B)

executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(C)

in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-1 to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10-percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

(D)

to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-2 or Exhibit K-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(3) any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

111

(4) if a payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient 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 Recipient 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 and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Recipient has complied with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (4), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.19, a Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties and to any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.19.

(f) Status of Administrative Agent. Prior to the date it becomes the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower a duly completed IRS Form W-9 (or, in the case of a successor Administrative Agent that is not organized in the United States, a duly executed IRS Form W-8ECI (with respect to any payments to be received on its own behalf) and IRS Form W-8IMY (for all other payments)) with the effect that the Borrower may make payments to the Administrative Agent, to the extent such payments are received by the Administrative Agent as an intermediary, without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States (without regard to the beneficial owners of such payment).

(g) Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund (whether in the form of cash or as a credit against, or as a reduction of, a tax liability) of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Loan Parties or with respect to which the Loan Parties have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.19, it shall pay over such refund to the relevant Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Loan Parties under this Section 2.19 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the relevant Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Loan Parties (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.19(g), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Loan Parties pursuant to this Section 2.19(g) the

112

payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 2.19(g) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(h) The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(i) For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 2.19, the term Lender shall include any Issuing Lender or Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender.

2.20 [Reserved].

2.21 Indemnity. The Borrower agree to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a direct consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurocurrency Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (c) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period thereof or (d) the making of a prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification shall not exceed an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid or converted, or not so borrowed, reduced, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, reduce, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, reduce, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest or other return for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurocurrency market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.22 Change of Lending Office.

(a) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Sections 2.18 or 2.19 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Sections 2.18 or 2.19.

(b) Subject to clause (a) above, and without prejudice to the rights and obligations (but subject to the terms and requirements) in Section 2.19, the Borrower agrees that each Lender may, at its option, make any Loan available to the Borrower by causing any foreign or domestic branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan, and that any exercise of such option shall not affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to this Agreement.

113

2.23 Replacement of Lenders. The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender (or prepay the Loans of such Lender on a non-pro rata basis) (a) where a Loan Party is obligated to pay additional amounts or indemnity payments under Section 2.19, (b) that requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.16 or Section 2.18, (c) that becomes a Defaulting Lender or otherwise defaults in its obligation to make Loans hereunder or (d) that has not consented to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by Section 11.1 that requires the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders under a particular Facility or each Lender affected thereby and which has been approved by the Required Lenders or a majority (by aggregate principal amount) of such affected Lenders as provided in Section 11.1, in each case, with a Lender or an Eligible Assignee; provided that (i) such replacement or repayment does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) the replacement financial institution or other Eligible Assignee shall purchase (or the Borrower shall prepay) all Loans and other amounts (or, in the case of clause (d) as it relates to provisions affecting a particular Facility, Loans or other amounts owing under such Facility) owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement or repayment, (iii) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.21 if any Eurocurrency Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased or prepaid other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (iv) if applicable, the replacement financial institution or other Eligible Assignee, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (v) if applicable, the replaced Lender shall be deemed to have made such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6, (vi) until such time as such replacement or repayment shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Sections 2.16, 2.18, 2.19(a) or 2.19(c), as the case may be, and (vii) any such replacement or repayment shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced or repaid Lender. Upon any such assignment, such replaced or repaid Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof (or, in the case of clause (d) as it relates to provisions affecting a particular Facility, a Lender under such Facility); provided that any rights of such replaced or repaid Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such replaced or repaid Lender. Each Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower agrees that in connection with the replacement or repayment of a Lender and upon payment to such replaced or repaid Lender of all amounts required to be paid under this Section 2.23, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be authorized, without the need for additional consent from such replaced Lender, to execute an Assignment and Assumption on behalf of such replaced Lender, and any such Assignment and Assumption so executed by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower and, to the extent required under Section 11.6, the Borrower, the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender, shall be effective for purposes of this Section 2.23 and Section 11.6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.23, in the event that a Lender which holds Loans or Commitments under more than one Facility does not agree to a proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver which requires the consent of all Lenders under a particular Facility, the Borrower shall be permitted to replace or repay the non-consenting Lender with respect to the affected Facility and may, but shall not be required to, replace or repay such Lender with respect to any unaffected Facilities.

2.24 Notes. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 11.6) (promptly after the Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Loans.

114

2.25 Incremental Credit Extensions.

Subject to the terms of this Section 2.25:

(a) The Borrower may, at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders) and the Person appointed by the Borrower to arrange an Incremental Facility (such Person (who (i) may be the Administrative Agent, if it so agrees, or (ii) any other Person appointed by the Borrower after consultation with the Administrative Agent, the “Incremental Arranger”), request one or more additional tranches of term loans and/or one or more increases to the amount of any Class of Term Loans then outstanding (including, in each case, through the assumption or guarantee of BRP C Corp. Acquisition Indebtedness) (the commitments thereof, the “Incremental Term Commitments”, the loans thereunder, the “Incremental Term Loans”, and a Lender making such loans, an “Incremental Term Lender”) and/or one or more additional tranches of revolving loans (the “Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments”) and/or one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving Commitments of any Class (each such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”, the loans thereunder and under any Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, the “Incremental Revolving Loans”, and a Lender making a commitment to provide such Incremental Revolving Loans, an “Incremental Revolving Lender”); provided that:

(i) after giving effect to any such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, any such Revolving Commitment Increase and any such Incremental Term Loans, the aggregate amount of such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, Revolving Commitment Increases and Incremental Term Loans shall not exceed an amount equal to the sum of (x) the Ratio-Based Incremental Amount (any Incurrence under this clause (x), a “Ratio-Based Incremental Facility”), plus (y) the Prepayment-Based Incremental Amount (any Incurrence under this clause (y), a “Prepayment-Based Incremental Facility”), plus (z) the Cash-Capped Incremental Amount (any Incurrence under this clause (z), a “Cash-Capped Incremental Facility”), provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount available to the Borrower pursuant to the Prepayment-Based Incremental Facility and the Cash-Capped Incremental Facility shall be available at all times and shall not be subject to the ratio test in the Ratio-Based Incremental Facility. Unless the Borrower elects otherwise, any Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitment Increase shall be deemed Incurred first under the Ratio-Based Incremental Facility, with the balance Incurred next under the Prepayment-Based Incremental Facility and then under the Cash-Capped Incremental Facility. The Borrower may designate any Incremental Arranger of any Incremental Facility with such titles under the Incremental Facility as Borrower may deem appropriate;

(ii) as determined by the Borrower, (A) the Incremental Revolving Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security and (B) the Incremental Term Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment (or be subordinated if agreed by the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans) and of security (or on a junior lien or unsecured basis, to the extent agreed by the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans), and shall, if not pari passu in right of payment or security, be provided as a separate facility and, if secured, be subject to an Intercreditor Agreement;

(iii) subject to the Permitted Earlier Maturity Indebtedness Exception, except in connection with a Qualifying Bridge Facility, the Incremental Term Loans shall not mature earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date and the Incremental Revolving Loans shall not mature earlier than the Revolving Termination Date;

(iv) subject to the Permitted Earlier Maturity Indebtedness Exception, except in connection with a Qualifying Bridge Facility, the Incremental Term Loans shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans (without giving effect to any prepayments that would otherwise modify the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans);

115

(v) (x) the All-In Yield (and, in the case of any Incremental Term Loan, subject to clauses (iii) and (iv) above, the amortization schedule) applicable to any such Incremental Term Loans or Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable Incremental Term Lenders or Incremental Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, and (y) any such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitment Increase shall not have amortization or scheduled mandatory commitment reductions prior to the Revolving Termination Date;

(vi) (A) the representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the applicable Incremental Facility Closing Date (or, in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, the Specified Representations shall be true and correct in all material respects) and (B) no Default or Event of Default (or, in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, no Default or Event of Default under Section 9.1(a) or 9.1(g)) shall exist on the Incremental Facility Closing Date with respect to any Incremental Amendment entered into in connection therewith (and after giving effect to any Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Loans made thereunder);

(vii) with respect to any Incremental Term Loans (other than Incremental Term Loans which constitute MFN Excluded Loans) that are denominated in Dollars that are secured on a pari passu basis with the Obligations and are made on or prior to the date that is twelve months after the Closing Date, if the All-In Yield with respect to the Incremental Term Loans made thereunder paid by the Borrower (as determined by the Borrower and the applicable Incremental Term Lenders) with respect to the Incremental Term Loans made thereunder exceeds the All-In Yield paid by the Borrower with respect to the Initial Term Loans that are denominated in the same currency as such Incremental Term Loans, as the case may be, after giving effect to any increase or repricing thereof that has theretofore become effective (it being understood that (i) if any such repricing was effected as a refinancing tranche, the OID applicable to the refinancing loans shall be taken into account in lieu of the OID applicable to the Refinanced loans and (ii) such All-In Yield calculated immediate prior to the time of the addition of such Incremental Term Loans), by more than 50 basis points (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Incremental Yield Differential”), then, upon the effectiveness of such Incremental Amendment, the Applicable Margin then in effect for such Initial Term Loans denominated in the same currency shall automatically be increased by the Incremental Yield Differential; provided, (1) if the Incremental Term Loans include an interest-rate floor greater than the interest rate floor applicable to such Initial Term Loans, the differential between such interest rate floors shall be equated to the interest rate margins for purposes of determining whether an increase to the Applicable Margin shall be required, but only to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor applicable to such Initial Term Loans would cause an increase in the Applicable Margin, and in such case the interest rate floor (but not the Applicable Margin) applicable to such Initial Term Loans shall be increased to the extent of such differential between interest rate floors and (2) any Incremental Term Loans that constitute fixed-rate Indebtedness shall be swapped to a floating rate on a customary matched-maturity basis;

(viii) the Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases may be denominated in Dollars or any other Alternative Currency; and

(ix) no Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases may be secured by any assets other than the Collateral and no Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Commitment Increases shall be guaranteed by any person other than the Loan Parties.

116

All or any portion of Indebtedness originally designated as Incurred under the Cash-Capped Incremental Facility or the Prepayment-Based Incremental Facility will automatically be reclassified as having been Incurred under the Ratio-Based Incremental Facility so long as, at the time of such reclassification (without giving effect to any amounts previously Incurred under the Cash-Capped Incremental Facility or the Prepayment-Based Incremental Facility that are not being reclassified), the Borrower would be permitted to Incur the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness being so reclassified under the Ratio-Based Incremental Facility (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall have the effect of increasing availability under the Cash-Capped Incremental Facility or Prepayment-Based Incremental Facility, as applicable, by the amount of such reclassified Indebtedness).

(b) Incremental Term Loans may provide for the ability to participate on a pro rata, greater than pro rata or less than pro rata basis in any voluntary prepayments of Term Loans or any mandatory prepayments of Term Loans with the proceeds of Other Term Loans and on a pro rata or less than pro rata basis with any other prepayment of Term Loans (except for any permitted amortization schedule, any earlier maturing debt, which in any event shall be permitted and any mandatory prepayment provisions for Escrowed Proceeds). Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments may participate in the payment, borrowing, participation and commitment reduction provisions herein on a pro rata basis with any then outstanding Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such Class on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class. Incremental Revolving Lenders may agree to a less than pro rata share of any prepayment Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases may benefit from the same Guarantees applicable to then outstanding Term Loans and Revolving Commitments. The Revolving Commitment Increases shall be on the exact same terms and pursuant to the exact same documentation, be treated substantially the same as the Revolving Commitments being increased, and shall be considered to be part of the Class of Revolving Facility being increased (it being understood that, if required to consummate the provision of Revolving Commitment Increases, the pricing, interest rate margins, rate floors and commitment fees on the Class of Revolving Commitments being increased may be increased and additional upfront or similar fees may be payable to the lenders providing the Revolving Commitment Increase (without any requirement to pay such fees to any existing Revolving Lenders)). Each notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Incremental Arranger pursuant to Section 2.25(a) shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitment Increase.

(c) Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases may be provided, by any existing Lender or any Additional Lender (provided that no existing Lender shall be obligated to provide any portion of any Incremental Facility), in each case on terms permitted in this Section 2.25, and, to the extent not permitted in this Section 2.25, all terms and documentation with respect to any Incremental Term Loan, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitment Increase shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided that terms that (i) are more restrictive on the Group Members, taken as a whole, than those with respect to the Term Loans and Revolving Commitments made on the Closing Date (but excluding (1) any terms applicable after the Latest Maturity Date and (2) are more favorable to the existing Lenders than the comparable terms in the existing Loan Documents, in which case such terms may be incorporated into this Agreement (or any other applicable Loan Document) pursuant to an amendment executed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower for the benefit of all existing Lenders (to the extent applicable to such Lender) without further amendment or consent requirements) or (ii) relate to provisions of a mechanical (including with respect to the Collateral and currency mechanics) or administrative nature, shall in each case be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided, that if a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent for posting to the Lenders at least five (5) Business Days prior to the incurrence of

117

such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, Revolving Commitment Increases and/or Incremental Term Loans, together with a reasonably detailed description of the material covenants and events of default of such Indebtedness or drafts of the documentation relating thereto, stating that the Borrower has determined in good faith that such terms and conditions satisfy the requirement of this clause (i) or (ii) and the Required Lenders shall not have notified the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that they disagree with such determination (including a statement of the basis upon which each such Lender disagrees) within such five (5) Business Day period, then such certificate shall be conclusive evidence that such material covenants and events of default satisfy such requirement; provided, further, that (A) (x) the Administrative Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such Lender’s making such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitment Increases if such consent would be required under Section 11.6(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Lender and each Issuing Lender and Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such Lender’s making such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitment Increases and (B) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute, accept or acknowledge any Incremental Amendment (as defined below) or related documentation which contains (by express language or omission) any material deviation from the terms of this Section 2.25 (as determined in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable discretion). Commitments in respect of Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases shall become Commitments (or in the case of a Revolving Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Revolving Lender, an increase in such Lender’s applicable Revolving 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, the Administrative Agent and each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, and each Additional Lender, if any. 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, the Incremental Arranger and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.25 (including any amendments that are not adverse to the interests of any Lender that are made to effectuate changes necessary to enable any Incremental Term Loans that are intended to be fungible with an existing Class of Term Loans to be fungible with such Term Loans, which shall include any amendments to Section 2.3 that do not reduce the ratable amortization received by each Lender thereunder). The effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment and the occurrence of any credit event (including the making (but not the conversion or continuation) of a Loan and the issuance, increase in the amount, or extension of a Letter of Credit thereunder) pursuant to such Incremental Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the parties thereto shall agree (the effective date of any such Incremental Amendment, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”)). The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitment Increases, unless it so agrees.

(d) Upon each Revolving Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section 2.25, each Revolving Lender 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 (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 Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans 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 Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans held by each Revolving Lender (including each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) will equal the percentage

118

of the aggregate Revolving Commitments of all Revolving Lenders represented by such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment and if, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase either be prepaid from the proceeds of additional Revolving Loans made hereunder or assigned to a Revolving Commitment Increase Lender (in each case, reflecting such increase in Revolving Commitments, such that Revolving Loans are held ratably in accordance with each Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share, after giving effect to such increase), which prepayment or assignment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.21 (it being understood that the foregoing provisions shall apply only to an increase in the amount of the Revolving Commitments of any Class and not to any additional tranches of Revolving Loans). The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.25(d) shall apply only to such Class of Revolving Commitments that are the same Class as the Incremental Revolving Loans and shall not apply to any other Class of Revolving Loans.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 2.25 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.17 or 11.1 to the contrary and Section 2.17 shall be deemed to be amended to implement any Incremental Amendment.

(f) If the Incremental Arranger is not the Administrative Agent, the actions authorized to be taken by the Incremental Arranger herein shall be done in consultation with the Administrative Agent and, with respect to the preparation of any documentation necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this Section 2.25 (including amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), any comments to such documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent shall be reflected therein.

2.26 Refinancing Amendments.

(a) At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Lender, Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt in respect of (1) all or any portion of the Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (1) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans) or (2) all or any portion of the Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Commitments) under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (2) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Revolving Loans and Other Revolving Commitments), in the form of (x) Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments or (y) Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt:

(i) shall not be permitted to rank senior in right of payment or security to the Loans and Commitments hereunder;

(ii) will have such pricing, fees and amortization (subject to clause (iii) below), call protection and prepayment premiums as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof;

(iii) (x) with respect to any Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Commitments, will have a maturity date that is not prior to the maturity date of Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Commitments) being Refinanced and (y) subject to the Permitted Earlier Maturity Indebtedness Exception, with respect to any Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments, will have a maturity date that is not prior to the maturity date of, and will have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is not shorter than, the Term Loans being Refinanced;

119

(iv) Other than with respect to (A) clause (ii) above, (B) covenants and other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect and (C) optional prepayment and redemption terms and, in each case, subject to the proviso below, will have terms and conditions that are either (x) consistent with, or, taken as a whole, less favorable to the Lenders or Additional Lenders providing such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt than the Refinanced Debt or (y) or approved by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion;

(v) the proceeds of such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the Incurrence thereof, to the prepayment of outstanding Term Loans or reduction of Revolving Commitments being so Refinanced (and repayment of Revolving Loans outstanding thereunder); and

(vi) shall not be secured by any assets other than the Collateral, shall not be guaranteed by any person other than the Guarantors;

provided, further, that the terms and conditions applicable to such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt 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 Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt is issued, Incurred or obtained or added to the Loan Documents for the benefit of the applicable Lenders pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided, further that if a certificate of a Responsible Officer shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent for posting to the Lenders at least five (5) Business Days prior to the incurrence of such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt, together with a reasonably detailed description of the material terms and conditions of such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt or drafts of the documentation relating thereto, stating that the Borrower has determined in good faith that such terms and conditions satisfy the requirements of this Section 2.26(a), and the Required Lenders shall not have notified the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that they disagree with such determination (including a statement of the basis upon which each such Lender disagrees) within such five (5) Business Day period, then such certificate shall be conclusive evidence that such terms and conditions satisfy the requirements of this Section 2.26(a). The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of (i) to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date and (ii) such conditions as the Borrower and providers of said Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt shall agree. Any Refinancing Amendment may provide for the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, pursuant to any Other Revolving Commitments established thereby, in each case on terms substantially equivalent to the terms applicable to Letters of Credit under the Revolving Commitments subject to the approval of the Issuing Lenders.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. 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 reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt Incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Term Loans, Other Revolving Loans, Other Revolving Commitments and/or Other Term Commitments).

120

(c) 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, the Refinancing Arranger and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.26. In addition, if so provided in the relevant Refinancing Amendment and with the consent of each Issuing Lender, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Revolving Termination Date shall be reallocated from Lenders holding Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such Refinancing Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding revolving commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such revolving commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 2.26 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.17 or 11.1 to the contrary and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend Section 2.17 to implement any Refinancing Amendment.

(e) If the Refinancing Arranger is not the Administrative Agent, the actions authorized to be taken by the Incremental Arranger herein shall be done in consultation with the Refinancing Arranger and, with respect to the preparation of any documentation necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this Section 2.26 (including amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), any comments to such documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent shall be reflected therein.

2.27 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as provided for in the definitions of “Required Lenders”, “Majority Revolving Lenders” and “Majority Term Lenders” and otherwise as set forth in Section 11.1.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 9 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.8), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, in the case of a Revolving Lender, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders and the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender hereunder; third, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fourth, in the case of a Revolving Lender, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no

121

Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Advances and such Lender is a Defaulting Lender under clause (a) of the definition thereof, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the relevant Loans of, and L/C Advances owed to, the relevant non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied pursuant to Section 3.2(b). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 3.2(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. Such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive or accrue Letter of Credit fees or any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.8(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, Refinance or fund participations in Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit pursuant to Sections 2.7 and 3.4, respectively, the “Pro Rata Share” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; provided that the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, Refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Revolving Commitment of such non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans of such Lender. In the event non-Defaulting Lenders’ obligations to acquire, Refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit are increased as a result of a Defaulting Lender, then all Letter of Credit fees that would have been paid to such Defaulting Lender shall be paid to such non-Defaulting Lenders ratably in accordance with such increase of such non-Defaulting Lender’s obligations to acquire, Refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit. Subject to Section 11.16, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share (without giving effect to Section 2.27(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties and subject to Section 11.16, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

122

(c) No Release. Subject to Section 11.16, the provisions hereof attributable to Defaulting Lenders shall not release or excuse any Defaulting Lender from failure to perform its obligations hereunder.

2.28 Loan Modification Offers.

(a) The Borrower may, on one or more occasions, by written notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Lenders of one or more Classes on the same terms to each such Lender (each Class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, a “Specified Class”) to make one or more Permitted Amendments pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Borrower appointed by the Borrower, after consultation (and, with respect to any documentation requiring execution of the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, with the consent of the Administrative Agent) with the Administrative Agent, as agent under such Loan Modification Agreement (as defined below) (such Person (who may be the Administrative Agent, if it so agrees), the “Loan Modification Agent”) and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent; provided that (i) any such offer shall be made by the Borrower to all Lenders with Loans with a like maturity date (whether under one or more tranches) on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the applicable Loans), (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of any such offer, (iii) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower and (iv) in the case of any Permitted Amendment relating to the Revolving Commitments, each Issuing Lender and the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender shall have approved such Permitted Amendment. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than five (5) Business Days nor more than 45 Business Days after the date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Loan Modification Agent); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, assignments and participations of Specified Classes shall be governed by the same or, at the Borrower’s discretion, more restrictive assignment and participation provisions than those set forth in Section 11.6. Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Lenders of the Specified Class that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Loans and Commitments of such Specified Class as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made. No Lender shall have any obligation to accept any Loan Modification Offer.

(b) A Permitted Amendment shall be effected pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement (a “Loan Modification Agreement”) executed and delivered by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each applicable Accepting Lender and the Loan Modification Agent. The Loan Modification Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. Each Loan Modification Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable Accepting Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Loan Modification Agent and the Borrower, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.28, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder; provided that (x) no Loan Modification Agreement may provide for (i) any Specified Class to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Group Member that does not also secure the Loans and (ii) so long as any Loans are outstanding, any mandatory or voluntary prepayment provisions that do not also apply to the Loans on a pro rata basis or greater than pro rata basis (or, with respect to voluntary prepayments and prepayments made with proceeds of Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt, on a pro rata basis, less than pro rata basis or greater than pro rata basis), (y) in the case of any Loan Modification Offer relating to Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans, except as otherwise agreed to by each Issuing Lender, (i) the allocation of the participation exposure with respect to

123

any then-existing or subsequently issued Letter of Credit as between the commitments of such new “Class” and the remaining Revolving Commitments shall be made on a ratable basis as between the commitments of such new “Class” and the remaining Revolving Commitments and (ii) the Revolving Termination Date may not be extended without the prior written consent of each Issuing Lender and (z) the terms and conditions of the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders (excluding pricing, fees, rate floors and optional prepayment or redemption terms) shall be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) shall be no more favorable to, the Accepting Lenders than those applicable to the Specified Class (except for (1) financial covenants or other covenants or provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date at the time of such Loan Modification Offer, as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Accepting Lenders, (2) customary market terms at the time of Incurrence (as determined by the Borrower in good faith) or approved by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, (3) any terms that are conformed (or added) to the Loan Documents for the benefit of the lenders of the Specified Class pursuant to such Loan Modification Agreement and (4) pricing, premiums and fees); provided that if a certificate of a Responsible Officer shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent for posting to the Lenders at least five (5) Business Days prior to the effectiveness of such Loan Modification Agreement, together with a reasonably detailed description of the material terms and conditions thereof or drafts of the documentation relating thereto, stating that the Borrower has determined in good faith that such terms and conditions satisfy the requirements of this Section 2.28(b), and the Required Lenders shall not have notified the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that they disagree with such determination (including a statement of the basis upon which each such Lender disagrees) within such five (5) Business Day period, then such certificate shall be conclusive evidence that such terms and conditions satisfy the requirements of this Section 2.28(b).

(c) Subject to Section 2.28(b), the Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Loan Modification Agreement that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Loan Modification Offer in the Borrower’s sole discretion and may be waived by the Borrower) of Loans of any or all applicable Classes be extended.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 2.28 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.17 or 11.1 to the contrary and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend Section 2.17 to implement any Loan Modification Agreement.

(e) If the Loan Modification Agent is not the Administrative Agent, the actions authorized to be taken by the Loan Modification Agent herein shall be done in consultation with the Administrative Agent and, with respect to the preparation of any documentation necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this Section 2.28 (including amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), any comments to such documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent shall be reflected therein.

SECTION 3.

LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1 L/C Commitment.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue standby letters of credit and, to the extent agreed to by an Issuing Lender, bank guarantees and commercial letters of credit providing for the payment of cash upon the honoring of a presentation thereunder (collectively, “Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower or the account of any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (provided that a Borrower shall be an applicant, shall be the primary obligor thereunder, and be fully and unconditionally liable, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a

124

Borrower) on any Business Day prior to the date that is 30 days prior to the Revolving Termination Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by the applicable Issuing Lender; provided that no Issuing Lender shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero or (iii) the L/C Obligation of such Issuing Lender would exceed its L/C Sublimit. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars or any Alternative Currency, (ii) have a stated amount acceptable to the relevant Issuing Lender, (iii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance or such longer period as is reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender, and (y) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date or such longer period as is reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender, provided that any Letter of Credit with the consent of the applicable Issuing Lender may provide for the renewal or extension thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above, except to the extent the L/C Obligations under such Letter of Credit have been Cash Collateralized); provided, further, that the Issuing Lenders shall not renew or extend any such Letter of Credit if it has received written notice (or otherwise has knowledge) that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or any of the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are not satisfied prior to the date of the decision to renew or extend such Letter of Credit and (iv) be otherwise reasonably acceptable in all respects to the Issuing Lenders. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Lenders, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to an Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once any Letter of Credit has been issued that may be extended automatically pursuant to the foregoing, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Lenders to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit, including to the date that is five (5)) Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date.

(b) The Issuing Lenders shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit (i) if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Lenders or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law, (ii) if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Lenders from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to the Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Lenders shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Lenders refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Lenders with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which an Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon each Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which each Issuing Lender in good faith deems material to it or (iii) as otherwise provided in Section 3.2(b) below.

3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit.

(a) The Borrower may from time to time on any Business Day occurring from (or, in the case of any Letter of Credit permitted to be issued on the Closing Date, prior to) the Closing Date until the Revolving Termination Date request that an Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to the relevant Issuing Lender, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of such Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may request. Promptly upon receipt of any Application, the relevant Issuing Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of the Application, and if not, will furnish the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless such Issuing Lender has received written notice from the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more of the conditions contained in Section 5 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Issuing Lender will process such Application

125

and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall any Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit (a) earlier than (i) three (3) Business Days, in the case of standby Letters of Credit or similar agreements or (ii) to the extent an Issuing Lender agrees to issue bank guarantees or commercial Letters of Credit, or similar agreements, such period of time as is acceptable to such Issuing Lender, or (b) later than ten (10) Business Days (or in each case such shorter period as may be agreed to by an Issuing Lender in any particular instance) after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower. Each Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly following the issuance thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly furnish notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof) to the Revolving Lenders.

(b) Cash Collateral. (i) If an Issuing Lender has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing and the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 to a Revolving Borrowing cannot then be met, (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, (iii) if any Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to Section 9.2 or (iv) an Event of Default set forth under Section 9.1(g) occurs and is continuing, then the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to 102% of such Outstanding Amount determined as of the date of such L/C Borrowing or the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, as the case may be), and shall do so not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on (x) in the case of the immediately preceding clauses (i) through (iii), (1) if the Borrower receives notice thereof prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), on any Business Day, on the Business Day immediately following receipt of such notice or (2) if the Borrower receives notice thereof after 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), on any Business Day, on the second Business Day immediately following receipt of such notice (y) in the case of the immediately preceding clause (iv), the Business Day on which an Event of Default set forth under Section 9.1(g) occurs or, if such day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately succeeding such day. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, if any Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure remains outstanding (after giving effect to Section 2.27(a)(iv)), then promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or each Issuing Lender, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure and deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover such Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender); provided that if any Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure is not Cash Collateralized in accordance with the foregoing to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Lenders, the Issuing Lenders shall have no obligation to issue new Letters of Credit or to extend, renew or amend existing Letters of Credit to the extent Letter of Credit exposure would exceed the commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders. For purposes hereof, “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the relevant Issuing Lender and the Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, Cash Collateral pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Lender (which documents are hereby consented to by the Lenders). Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. The Borrower hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in a Cash Collateral Account and may be invested in readily available Cash Equivalents. If at any time the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (or in the case of Cash Collateral provided with regard to Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure, such amount of

126

Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure, in each case that is required to be Cash Collateralized pursuant to this Section 3.2(b)), the Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in a Cash Collateral Account as aforesaid, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate Outstanding Amount (and/or such aggregate Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure, as applicable) over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the Administrative Agent reasonably determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, to reimburse the relevant Issuing Lender. To the extent the amount of any Cash Collateral exceeds the then Outstanding Amount of such L/C Obligations or the Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure, as applicable, and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the excess shall be refunded to the Borrower.

3.3 Fees and Other Charges.

(a) The Borrower will pay a fee on the actual aggregate daily undrawn and unexpired amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurocurrency Loans under the Revolving Facility, shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each applicable Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee of 0.125% per annum (or such lower fee as the Issuing Lenders may agree) on the actual aggregate daily undrawn and unexpired amount of all such Issuing Lender’s Letters of Credit outstanding during the applicable period, payable quarterly in arrears on each applicable Fee Payment Date after the issuance date.

(b) In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse such Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit. Such costs and expenses shall be due and payable within three (3) Business Days of demand and nonrefundable.

3.4 L/C Participations.

(a) The Issuing Lenders irrevocably agree to grant and hereby grant to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lenders to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lenders, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in the Issuing Lenders’ obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amount of each draft paid by an Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant agrees with the Issuing Lenders that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which an Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender upon demand at such Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed. Each L/C Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such L/C Participant may have against any Issuing Lender, the Borrower, any other Group Member or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other L/C Participant or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

127

(b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the Issuing Lenders pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lenders under any Letter of Credit is paid to the Issuing Lenders within three (3) Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lenders on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Lenders, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the Issuing Lenders by such L/C Participant within three (3) Business Days after the date such payment is due, the Issuing Lenders shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility. A certificate of an Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(c) Whenever, at any time after an Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), an Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it.

3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lenders shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. If any drawing is paid under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Lenders for the amount of (a) the drawing so paid and (b) any fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Lenders in connection with such payment, not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on (x) if such notice of drawing is received prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), on the first Business Day following the date such drawing is paid by the Issuing Lenders and (y) otherwise, the second Business Day following the date such drawing is paid by the Issuing Lenders (the “Honor Date”). Each such payment shall be made to an Issuing Lender at its address for notices referred to herein in the currency in which the applicable Letter of Credit is denominated and in immediately available funds. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse such Issuing Lender on the Honor Date (or if any such reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason), then (A) if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, automatically and with no further action required, the Borrower’s or such other Person’s obligation to reimburse the applicable L/C Borrowing shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse in Dollars the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rate on the Honor Date, of such L/C Borrowing and (B) in the case of each L/C Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Lender and each relevant Issuing Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing in Dollars (in the case of an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, using the Exchange Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency in relation to Dollars in effect on the date of determination) (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such relevant Issuing Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. In the event that the Borrower does not reimburse the Issuing Lender on the Business Day following the date it receives notice of the Honor Date (or, if the Borrower shall have received such notice later than 1:00 p.m. on any Business Day, on the second succeeding Business Day), the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Borrowing of ABR Loans to be disbursed on such date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.5 for the principal amount of ABR Loans but subject to the amount of the

128

unutilized portion of the Revolving Commitments, and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 (other than the delivery of a Borrowing Notice). Any notice given by an Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.5 may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. For the avoidance of doubt, if any drawing occurs under a Letter of Credit and such drawing is not reimbursed on the same day, such drawing shall, without duplication, accrue interest at the rate applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility until the date of reimbursement If the Borrower fail to reimburse an Issuing Lender on the Honor Date, interest shall be payable on any such amounts from the date on which the relevant drawing is paid until payment in full at the rate set forth in (x) until the second Business Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice, Section 2.14(b) and (y) thereafter, Section 2.14(c).

3.6 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against the Issuing Lenders, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person (it being understood that this provision shall not preclude the ability of the Borrower to bring any claim for damages against any such Person who has acted with bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Borrower also agree with the Issuing Lenders that the Issuing Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged or any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Lender 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 Requirements of Law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by an Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (that is not subject to appeal)), such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. The Issuing Lenders shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lenders. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lenders under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct or, in the case of determinations of whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, if done in the absence of bad faith (in each case, as determined in a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction), shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lenders to the Borrower.

3.7 Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lenders shall promptly notify the Borrower of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of the Issuing Lenders to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

129

3.8 Applications. To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit, or any other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing Lenders or any other Person relating to any Letter of Credit, is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall control.

3.9 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; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms (or the terms of any applicable Application or other document, agreement or instrument entered into by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Borrower (or Restricted Subsidiary, if applicable) or in favor of the applicable Issuing Lender and relating to such Letter of Credit) provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.

(f) to the knowledge of the Group Members, there are no past or present conditions, events, circumstances, facts, or activities that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any liability or other obligation for any Group Member under any Environmental Laws.

4.15 Accuracy of Information, etc. No written statement or information concerning any Group Member or the Business contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other document, certificate or written statement furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them (except for projections, pro forma financial information and information of a general economic or industry nature), for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, when taken as a whole, contained, as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished and after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made. The projections and pro forma financial information, taken as a whole, contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions

133

believed by management of the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made and as of the Closing Date (with respect to such projections and pro forma financial information delivered prior to the Closing Date), it being recognized by the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact, forecasts and projections are subject to uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount and no assurance can be given that any forecast or projections will be realized.

4.16 Security Documents.

(a) Each of the Security Documents is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and, subject to any Legal Reservations, enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof under applicable laws.

(b) Upon the making of the filings and taking of the actions contemplated by the Security Documents, the Liens created by the Security Documents constitute fully perfected (or the equivalent under applicable law) first priority Liens (subject to Permitted Liens) so far as possible under relevant law on, and security interests in all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Collateral in each case free and clear of any Liens other than Liens permitted hereunder.

(c) Each Segregated Acquisition Amount will be, promptly upon funding, deposited into a deposit account subject to the valid and perfected first priority security interest of the Administrative Agent (each “Segregated Acquisition Amount Deposit Account”) and subject to the terms of one or more control agreements in a form that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent establishing the Administrative Agent’s control with respect thereto (each, a “Segregated Acquisition Amount Deposit Account Control Agreement”). The Security Agreement creates a valid security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the applicable Segregated Acquisition Amount Deposit Account and the funds held therein, and such security interest of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties constitutes a first priority security interest perfected by control (within the meaning of the UCC).

4.17 Solvency. As of the Closing Date (and after giving effect to the consummation of the Transaction to occur on the Closing Date), the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, after giving effect to the Transactions and the Incurrence of all Indebtedness and obligations being Incurred in connection herewith and therewith and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, are Solvent.

4.18 Patriot Act; FCPA; OFAC; Sanctions Laws.

(a) To the extent applicable, the Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries are in compliance in all material respects with U.S. and non-U.S. Laws relating to Sanctions Laws and anti-money laundering, including the Patriot Act. As of the Closing Date, to the knowledge of the Borrower, the information included in the Beneficial Ownership Certification is true and correct in all material respects.

(b) The Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable Anti-Corruption Laws. No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used directly or, knowingly, indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or any other Person acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws.

134

(c) None of the Loan Parties, nor any of their Subsidiaries, nor any director or officer, nor, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, any employee of the Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries, nor, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries, any agent or representative of the Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries, is a Sanctioned Person. No Group Member is located, organized or resident in a country or territory that is the subject of Sanctions Laws.

(d) The Loan Parties will not, directly or, knowingly, indirectly, use the proceeds of any Loans, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiary (and any joint ventures of the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries), joint venture partner or other Person, to fund any activities of or business with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory, that, at the time of such funding, is itself the subject of Sanctions Laws, or in any other manner that will result in a violation by any of the Loan Parties of Sanctions Laws or applicable Anti-Corruption Laws.

4.19 Status as Senior Indebtedness. The Obligations under the Facilities constitute “senior debt”, “senior indebtedness”, “guarantor senior debt”, “senior secured financing” and “designated senior indebtedness” (or any comparable term) for all Indebtedness (if any) that is subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations.

Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, no officer of any Group Member shall have any personal liability in connection with the representations and warranties and other certifications in this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 7.2, in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt or is entitled to be Incurred as Ratio Debt, the Borrower shall, in its sole discretion, at the time of Incurrence, divide and/or classify, or at any later time redivide and/or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) in one or more of the categories (including in part in one category and in part in another category set forth in this Section 7.2 (including Ratio Debt)). The Borrower will also be entitled to divide, classify or reclassify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Permitted Debt described in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 7.2 without giving pro forma effect to the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) Incurred as part of the same transaction or substantially concurrent series of related transactions pursuant to clause (a) or clause (b) of this Section 7.2 when calculating the amount of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) that may be Incurred pursuant to this Section 7.2. Other than with respect to clauses (b)(i) of this Section 7.2, if at any time that the Borrower would be entitled to have incurred any then-outstanding item of Indebtedness as Ratio Debt or pursuant to clause (b)(vi)(x) of this Section 7.2, such item of Indebtedness shall be automatically reclassified into an item of Indebtedness incurred as Ratio Debt or pursuant to clause (b)(vi)(x) of this Section 7.2. For the avoidance of doubt, Indebtedness Incurred under clauses (b)(i) of this Section 7.2 shall be deemed to have been Incurred solely pursuant to such clause (even if such Indebtedness has been refinanced pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(xvi) and shall not be permitted to be reclassified and shall be deemed to have been Incurred solely pursuant to such specific subclause and shall not be permitted to be reclassified as Indebtedness Incurred under the other subclause thereof. For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 7.2, with respect to Indebtedness Incurred, reborrowings of amounts previously repaid pursuant to “cash sweep” provisions or any similar provisions that provide that Indebtedness is deemed to be repaid daily (or otherwise periodically) shall only be deemed for purposes of this Section 7.2 to have been Incurred

152

on the date such Indebtedness was first Incurred and not on the date of any subsequent reborrowing thereof. Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in the form of additional shares of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of the same class, the accretion of liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 7.2 (and, for the avoidance of doubt, no such amounts count against any “basket” amount under this Section 7.2). For the avoidance of doubt, the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness shall be counted only once. Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness, provided that the Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this Section 7.2.

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with any Dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the Dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed or first Incurred (whichever yields the lower Dollar-equivalent amount), in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced plus the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with such refinancing.

7.10 Changes in Fiscal Periods. The Borrower will not permit the fiscal year of the Borrower to end on a day other than December 31 or change the Borrower’s method of determining fiscal quarters, in each case other than with prior written notice to the Administrative Agent.

7.11 Negative Pledge Clauses. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into or suffer to exist or become effective any agreement that prohibits or limits the ability of the Borrower or any Group Member to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien upon any of its property or revenues, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to secure its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party other than (a) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (b) any agreements evidencing or governing any purchase money Liens or Capitalized Lease Obligations otherwise permitted hereby (in which case, any prohibition or limitation shall only be effective against the assets financed thereby), (c) customary restrictions on the assignment of leases, licenses and contracts, (d) any agreement in effect at the time any Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such agreement was not entered into in contemplation of such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary, (e) customary restrictions and conditions contained in agreements relating to the sale of a Restricted Subsidiary (or the assets of a Restricted Subsidiary) pending such sale; provided that such restrictions and conditions apply only to the Restricted Subsidiary that is to be sold (or whose assets are to be sold) and such sale is permitted hereunder), (f) restrictions and conditions existing on the Closing Date and any amendments or modifications thereto so long as such amendment or modification does not expand the scope of any such restriction or condition in any material respect, (g) restrictions under agreements evidencing or governing or otherwise relating to Indebtedness of Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries permitted under Section 7.2; provided that such Indebtedness is only with respect to the assets of Restricted Subsidiaries that are Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries and (h) customary provisions in joint venture agreements, limited liability company operating agreements, partnership agreements, stockholders agreements and other similar agreements.

7.13 Amendments to Organizational Documents. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, terminate or agree to any amendment, supplement, or other modification of (pursuant to a waiver or otherwise), or waive any of its rights under, any Organizational Documents of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, if, in light of the then-existing circumstances, a Material Adverse Effect would be reasonably likely to exist or result after giving effect to such termination, amendment, supplement or other modification or waiver, except, in each case, as otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents; provided that in each case, if a certificate of the Borrower shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent for posting to the Lenders at least five (5) Business Days prior to such amendment or other modification, together with a reasonably detailed description of such amendment or modification, stating that the Borrower has determined in good faith that such terms and conditions satisfy such foregoing requirement, and the Required Lenders shall not have notified the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that they disagree with such determination (including a statement of the basis upon which each such Lender disagrees) within such five (5) Business Day period, then such certificate shall be conclusive evidence that such terms and conditions satisfy such foregoing requirement.

SECTION 8.

GUARANTEE

8.1 The Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not as a surety, to each Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of (1) the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar law of any other jurisdiction) on (i) the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower, (ii) the Incremental Loans made by the Incremental Term Lenders or Incremental Revolving Lenders to the Borrower, (iii) the Other Term Loans and Other Revolving Loans made by any lender thereof, and (iv) the Notes held by each Lender of the Borrower (2) each Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan and (3) all other Obligations from time to time owing to the Secured Parties by the Borrower or the borrower of any Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan (such obligations under clauses (1) and (2) being herein collectively called the “Guarantor Obligations”). Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally agrees that, if the Borrower or the borrower of any Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guarantor Obligations, such Guarantor will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guarantor Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

8.2 Obligations Unconditional.

(a) The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 8.1, respectively, shall constitute a guaranty of payment (and not of collection) and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value,

169

genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guarantor Obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guarantor Obligations, and, in each case, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety by any Guarantor (except for payment in full). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall, in each case, remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

(i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guarantor Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(iii) the maturity of any of the Guarantor Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guarantor Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guarantor Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(iv) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Issuing Lenders or any Lender or the Administrative Agent as security for any of the Guarantor Obligations shall fail to be valid or perfected or entitled to the expected priority;

(v) the release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 8.9, 10.10 or otherwise; or

(vi) except for the payment in full of the Guarantor Obligations, any other circumstance whatsoever which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guarantor Obligations or which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower or any Guarantor for the Guarantor Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the Guarantee or of any security interest granted by any Guarantor, whether in a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or in any other instance.

(b) Each of the Guarantors hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, marshaling, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrower under this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guarantor Obligations. Each of the Guarantors waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guarantor Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon the guarantee made under this Section 8 (this “Guarantee”) or acceptance of the Guarantee, and the Guarantor Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon the Guarantee, and all dealings between the Borrower or the borrower of Designated Acquisition Swingline Loan, on the one hand, and the Secured Parties, on the other hand, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the Guarantee. The Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guarantor Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Parties and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon

170

the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against the Borrower or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guarantor Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. The Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the applicable Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guarantor Obligations outstanding.

8.3 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 8 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party in respect of the Guarantor Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guarantor Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

8.4 No Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guarantor Obligations (other than (i) contingent indemnification and reimbursement obligations for which no claim has been made, (ii) Letters of Credit that have been Collateralized or otherwise backstopped, (iii) Cash Management Obligations as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Cash Management Providers have been made and (iv) obligations under Qualified Hedging Agreements as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Qualified Counterparties have been made) and the expiration and termination of the Commitments under this Agreement, it shall waive any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its Guarantee, whether by subrogation, right of contribution or otherwise, against the Borrower, as applicable, or any other Guarantor of any of the Guarantor Obligations or any security for any of the Guarantor Obligations.

8.5 Remedies. Each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 9 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 9) for purposes of Section 8.1, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower or any Guarantor and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable, or the circumstances occurring where Section 9 provides that such obligations shall become due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 8.1.

8.6 [Reserved].

8.7 Continuing Guarantee. The Guarantee made by the Guarantors is a continuing guarantee of payment (and not of collection), and shall apply to all Guarantor Obligations whenever arising.

8.8 General Limitation on Guarantor Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any federal, state, provincial or territorial, corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 8.1 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 8.1, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability of such Guarantor shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 8.10) that is valid and

171

enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding. To effectuate the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Guarantor Obligations of each Guarantor in respect of the Guarantee at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Guarantor Obligations of such Guarantor with respect thereto hereof not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance after giving full effect to the liability under such Guarantee and its related contribution rights but before taking into account any liabilities under any other guarantee by such Guarantor. For purposes of the foregoing, all guarantees of such Guarantor other than its Guarantee will be deemed to be enforceable and payable after the Guarantee. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, this Section 8.8 shall be for the benefit solely of creditors and representatives of creditors of each Guarantor and not for the benefit of such Guarantor or the holders of any Equity Interest in such Guarantor.

8.9 Release of Guarantors. A Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder in the event that such Guarantor shall become an Excluded Subsidiary or that all the Capital Stock of such Guarantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of to a Person other than a Loan Party, in each case in a transaction permitted by this Agreement; provided that the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents solely as a result of such Guarantor becoming an Excluded Subsidiary of the type described in clause (i) of the definition thereof shall only be permitted if such Guarantor becomes such an Excluded Subsidiary pursuant to a transaction with a third party that is not otherwise an Affiliate of the Borrower and such transaction was not for the primary purpose of release the Guarantee of such Guarantor. In connection with any such release of a Guarantor, provided that the Borrower shall have provided the Administrative Agent with such confirmation or documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to the Borrower, at the Borrower’s expense, all UCC termination statements and other documents that the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

8.10 Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 8.4. The provisions of this Section 8.10 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Excluded ECP Guarantor shall have any obligations or liabilities to any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party with respect to Excluded Swap Obligations.

8.11 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under the Guarantee in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 8.11 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 8.11, or otherwise under the Guarantee, as it relates to such Loan Party, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 8.11 shall remain in full force and effect until the termination and release of all Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 8.11 constitute, and this Section 8.11 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

SECTION 9.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT

9.1 Events of Default. An Event of Default shall occur if any of the following events shall occur and be continuing; provided that any requirement for the giving of notice, the lapse of time, or both, has been satisfied (any such event, an “Event of Default”):

173

Consolidated EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis as of the most recently ended Test Period; provided, further, that clause (iii) of this Section 9.1(f) shall not apply to secured Indebtedness that becomes due as a result of the voluntary Disposition of the property or assets securing such Indebtedness, if such Disposition is permitted hereunder and such Indebtedness that becomes due is paid upon such Disposition; provided, further, that clause (iii) of this Section 9.1(f) shall not apply to Indebtedness held exclusively by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, further, that this Section 9.1(f) shall apply only if such default is unremedied and is not waived by the holders of such Indebtedness prior to the termination of the Commitments and acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 9.2 and excludes termination events or equivalent events with respect to Swap Agreements; or

(g) (i) the Borrower, any Guarantor (other than any Guarantor that is an Immaterial Subsidiary) or any Significant Subsidiary shall commence any case, proceeding or other action (A) under any existing or future law of any jurisdiction, domestic or foreign, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, suspension of payments, moratorium or any indebtedness, winding up, dissolution, administration, scheme of arrangement or relief of debtors, seeking to have an order for relief entered with respect to it, or seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, winding up, liquidation, dissolution, composition or other relief with respect to it or its debts, or (B) seeking appointment of a liquidator, receiver, administrative receiver, compulsory manager, trustee, custodian, conservator or other similar official for it or for all or any substantial part of its assets, the Borrower, any Guarantor (other than any Guarantor that is an Immaterial Subsidiary) or any Significant Subsidiary shall make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (ii) there shall be commenced against the Borrower, any Guarantor (other than any Guarantor that is an Immaterial Subsidiary) or any Significant Subsidiary any case, proceeding, analogous procedure, step or other action of a nature referred to in clause (i) above that (A) results in the entry of an order for relief or any such adjudication or appointment or (B) remains undismissed, undischarged or unbonded for a period of 60 days; or (iii) there shall be commenced against the Borrower, any Guarantor (other than any Guarantor that is an Immaterial Subsidiary) or any Significant Subsidiary any case, proceeding or other action seeking issuance of a warrant of attachment, execution, distraint or similar process against all or any substantial part of its assets that results in the entry of an order for any such relief that shall not have been vacated, discharged, or stayed or bonded pending appeal within 60 days from the entry thereof; or (iv) the Borrower, any Guarantor (other than any Guarantor that is an Immaterial Subsidiary) or any Significant Subsidiary shall take any corporate action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of, or acquiescence in, any of the acts set forth in clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) above; (v) the Borrower, any Guarantor (other than any Guarantor that is an Immaterial Subsidiary) or any Significant Subsidiary shall generally not, or shall be unable to, or shall admit in writing its inability to generally, pay its debts as they become due; or

(k) the Guarantee of any Guarantor (other than any Guarantor that is an Immaterial Subsidiary) shall cease, for any reason, to be in full force and effect, other than as provided for in Sections 8.9 or 10.10, or any Loan Party shall so assert in writing (except to the extent solely as a result of acts or omissions by the Administrative Agent or any Lender); or

(l) a Change of Control shall occur; or

(m) any Intercreditor Agreement shall cease, for any reason, to be in full force and effect, or any Loan Party shall so assert in writing, in each case unless such cessation results solely from acts or omissions by the Administrative Agent or any Lender;

(n) any Loan Party repudiates or rescinds in writing this Agreement or the Loan Documents in a manner which is materially adverse to the interests of the Lenders as a whole.

9.2 Action in Event of Default.

(a) (x) Upon any Event of Default specified in Section 9.1(g)(i) or (ii) occurring and continuing with respect to a Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or any other liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, moratorium, rearrangement, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, or similar debtor relief law of the United States from time to time in effect and affecting the rights of creditors generally, the Commitments to lend to the Borrower shall immediately terminate automatically and the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other Obligations owing by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) shall automatically immediately become due and payable, and (y) if any other Event of Default (other than under Section 9.1(g)(i) or (ii) in respect of a Borrower as set out in clause (x) above) occurs and is continuing, subject to Section 9.2(b) and (c), either or both of the following actions may be taken: (i) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower declare the Revolving

175

Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Revolving Commitments shall immediately terminate; and/or (ii) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other Obligations owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders the Administrative Agent shall, exercise any and all other remedies available under the Loan Documents at law or in equity, including commencing and prosecuting any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction and collecting the Collateral or any portion thereof and enforcing any other right in respect of any Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9 or any other provision of this Agreement, any unfunded Commitments outstanding at any time in respect of any individual incremental facility pursuant to Section 2.25 established to finance a Limited Condition Transaction may be terminated only by the lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments in respect of such incremental facility (or by the Administrative Agent acting at the request of such Lenders), and not, for the avoidance of doubt, automatically or by the Required Lenders or any other Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent acting at the request of the Required Lenders or any other Lenders).

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 9.1(d) (a “Financial Covenant Event of Default”) that is uncured or unwaived and the expiration of the Cure Period without the receipt of the Cure Amount, the Majority Revolving Lenders (and, for the avoidance of doubt, not the Administrative Agent (except acting at the direction of such Majority Revolving Lenders), the Required Lenders or any other Lenders) may either (x) terminate the Revolving Commitments and/or (y) take the actions specified in Section 9.2(a) and (c) in respect of the Revolving Commitments, the Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit and Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans.

(c) In respect of a Financial Covenant Event of Default that is continuing, the Required Lenders may take the actions specified in Section 9.2(a) on or after the date that the Majority Revolving Lenders terminate the Revolving Commitments and accelerate all Obligations in respect of the Revolving Commitments; provided, however, that the Required Lenders may not take such actions if either (i) the Revolving Loans have been repaid in full (other than contingent indemnification and reimbursement obligations for which no claim has been made) and the Revolving Commitments have been terminated, (ii) the Financial Covenant Event of Default has been waived by the Majority Revolving Lenders or (iii) a Cure Amount shall have been received in accordance with Section 9.3.

(d) With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall at such time deposit in a Cash Collateral Account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit. Amounts held in such Cash Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other Obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon and all amounts drawn thereunder have been reimbursed in full and all other Obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full (other than (i) contingent indemnification and reimbursement obligations for which no claim has been made, (ii) Cash Management Obligations as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Cash Management Providers have been made, (iii) Letters of Credit that have been Collateralized or, to the reasonable satisfaction of the applicable Issuing Lender, rolled into another credit facility, and (iv) obligations under Qualified Hedging Agreements as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Qualified Counterparties have been made), the

176

balance, if any, in such Cash Collateral Account shall be returned to the Borrower (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto). Except as expressly provided above in this Section 9.2, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

9.3 Right to Cure.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 9, in the event that the Borrower fails (or, but for the operation of this Section 9.3, would fail) to comply with the requirements of Section 7.1, the Borrower shall have the right after the first day of the applicable fiscal quarter and/or from the date of delivery of a Notice of Intent to Cure with respect to the fiscal quarter most recently ended for which financial results have been provided under Sections 6.1(a) or (b) until ten (10) Business Days after the end of such fiscal quarter (the “Cure Period”), to issue Permitted Cure Securities for cash or otherwise receive cash contributions to the equity capital of the Borrower, and, in each case, to contribute any such cash to the equity capital of the Borrower (collectively, the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by the Borrower of such cash (the “Cure Amount”) pursuant to the exercise by the Borrower of such Cure Right, the Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio shall be recalculated by increasing Consolidated EBITDA (solely for purposes of compliance with Section 7.1) on a Pro Forma Basis by an amount equal to the Cure Amount (x) solely for the purpose of measuring the Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and not for any other purpose under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including for purposes of determining pricing, mandatory prepayments and the availability or amount permitted pursuant to any covenant under Section 7) for the quarter with respect to which such Cure Right was exercised and (y) there shall be no reduction in Indebtedness in connection with any Cure Amounts for determining compliance with Section 7.1 and no Cure Amounts will reduce (or count towards) the Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio or the Total Net Leverage Ratio for purposes of any calculation thereof for the fiscal quarter with respect to which such Cure Right was exercised unless the proceeds are actually applied to prepay Indebtedness pursuant to Section 2.11.

(b) If, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, the Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of Section 7.1, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of Section 7.1 as of the relevant date of determination 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 7.1 that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement.

(c) To the extent a fiscal quarter ended for which the Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio was initially recalculated as a result of a Cure Right and such fiscal quarter is included in the calculation of the Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio in a subsequent fiscal quarter, the Cure Amount shall be included in Consolidated EBITDA of such initial fiscal quarter.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in each four-fiscal-quarter period there shall be at least two fiscal quarters in which the Cure Right is not exercised and the Cure Right shall not be exercised in consecutive fiscal quarters, (ii) for purposes of this Section 9.3, the Cure Amount shall be no greater than the amount required for purposes of complying with the Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, determined at the time the Cure Right is exercised with respect to the fiscal quarter ended for which the Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio was initially recalculated as a result of a Cure Right, (iii) the Cure Amount shall be disregarded for all other purposes of this Agreement, including, determining any baskets with respect to the covenants contained in Section 7, and shall not result in any adjustment to any amounts other than the amount of Consolidated EBITDA as described in clause (a) above, (iv) there shall be no pro forma reduction in Indebtedness with the proceeds of any Cure Amount for the fiscal quarter in respect of which the Cure Right is exercised for purposes of determining compliance with Section 7.1; provided that such Cure Amount shall reduce Indebtedness in future fiscal quarters to the extent used to prepay any applicable Indebtedness, (v) the Borrower shall not exercise the Cure Right in excess of five

177

instances over the term of this Agreement and (vi) no Revolving Lender or Issuing Lender shall be required to make any Revolving Loans or issue, amend, modify, renew or extend any Letter of Credit hereunder if a violation of Section 7.1 has occurred and is continuing until the expiration of the 10 Business Day period during which the Borrower may exercise a Cure Right, unless and until the Cure Amount is actually received.

9.4 Application of Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may apply, at such time or times as the Administrative Agent may elect, all or any part of proceeds constituting Collateral in payment of the Obligations (and in the event the Loans and other Obligations are accelerated pursuant to Section 9.2, the Administrative Agent shall, from time to time, apply the proceeds constituting Collateral in payment of the Obligations) in the following order:

(a) First, to the payment to the Administrative Agent of all costs and expenses of any sale, collection or other realization on the Collateral, including reimbursement for all costs, expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith (including all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection any action taken pursuant to any Loan Document or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and any other amount required by any provision of law (including Section 9-615(a)(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code) (or any equivalent law in any foreign jurisdiction)), and all amounts for which Administrative Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and all advances made by the Administrative Agent hereunder and thereunder for the account of any Loan Party (excluding principal and interest in respect of any Loans extended to such Loan Party), and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and to the payment or reimbursement of all indemnification obligations, fees, costs and expenses owing to the Administrative Agent hereunder or under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof;

(b) Second, for application by it pro rata to (i) repay the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender for any then outstanding Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans to the extent Revolving Lenders have not funded their obligations to acquire participations therein, (ii) cure any Funding Default that has occurred and is continuing at such time and (iii) repay the Issuing Lenders for any amounts not paid by L/C Participants pursuant to Section 3.4;

(c) Third, for application by it towards all other Obligations (including, without duplication, Guarantor Obligations), pro rata among the Secured Parties according to the amounts of the Obligations then held by the Secured Parties (including all Obligations arising under Specified Cash Management Agreements, Qualified Hedging Agreements and including obligations to provide cash collateral with respect to Letters of Credit); and

(d) Fourth, any balance of such proceeds remaining after all of the Obligations shall have been satisfied by payment in full in immediately available funds (or in the case of Letters of Credit, terminated or Collateralized or (to the reasonable satisfaction of the applicable Issuing Lender) rolled into another credit facility) and the Commitments shall have been terminated, be paid over to or upon the order of the applicable Loan Party or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

178

SECTION 10.

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

10.1 Appointment and Authority.

(a) Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender hereby irrevocably appoints JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 10 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Joint Bookrunners, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, and, except to the extent that any Group Member has any express rights under this Section 10, no Group Member shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. Each Joint Lead Arranger, Joint Bookrunner and Syndication Agent shall be an intended third party beneficiary of the provisions set forth in this Agreement that are applicable thereto.

(b) Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Qualified Counterparty and a potential Cash Management Provider) and each of the Issuing Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and the Issuing Lenders (with the full power to appoint and to substitute and to delegate) on its behalf, or in its own name as joint and several creditor or creditor of a parallel debt (as the case may be) for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.5 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Section 10 and Section 11, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent on its behalf and/or in its own name (including under the parallel debt) to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents and acknowledge and agree that any such action by any Agent shall bind the Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy with respect to any Collateral against the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents, Qualified Hedging Agreements or any Specified Cash Management Agreement (including, in each case, the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

10.2 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

179

10.3 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law;

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;

(d) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 11.1 and Section 9.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by a Borrower, a Lender or the applicable Issuing Lender.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 5 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders or Affiliated Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Lender, (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender or (z) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or enforce the limitations in connection with any assignment to Debt Fund Affiliates and Affiliated Lenders or have any liability with respect thereto or any matter arising thereof. The Administrative Agent shall be permitted upon request of any Lender or Participant to make available to such Lender or Participant any list of Disqualified Lenders and any Lender may provide the list of

180

Disqualified Lenders, upon request, to any prospective assignee or Participant on a confidential basis to such prospective assignee or Participant for the purpose of making the representation in the Assignment and Assumption or participation documentation that such prospective assignee or Participant is not a Disqualified Lender under the Credit Agreement (it being understood that the identity of Disqualified Lenders will not be posted or distributed to any Person, other than a distribution by the Administrative Agent to a Lender upon written request and by a Lender to any prospective assignee or Participant on a confidential basis).

10.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the applicable Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

10.5 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 10 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable decision to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

10.6 Resignation and Removal of Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right (for so long as no Event of Default set forth under Section 9.1(a) or (g) has occurred and is continuing, subject to the approval of the Borrower, not to be unreasonably withheld) to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and (for so long as no Event of Default set forth under Section 9.1(a) or (g) has occurred and is continuing, subject to the approval of the Borrower, not to be unreasonably withheld), appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after such notice (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed), all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lenders directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 10 and Section 11.5 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

(a) Any resignation by JPMCB as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 10.6 shall also constitute its resignation as Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender. If JPMCB so resigns as a Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of a Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender hereunder with respect to all Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender, including the right to require the Lenders to make Refunded Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans or fund risk participations in the Outstanding Amount of Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.7(b). Upon the appointment by the Borrower of a successor Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Lender other than a Defaulting Lender), (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the

182

retiring Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender, (b) the retiring Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender shall issue Designated Acquisition Swingline loans in substitution for the Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender that issued such outstanding Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans to effectively assume the obligations of the applicable Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender that issued such outstanding Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans with respect to such Designated Acquisition Swingline Loans.

In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.8, 3.3 and 11.5) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

10.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

(a) Each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Qualified Counterparty and a potential Cash Management Provider), the Issuing Lenders and the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by Section 11.1): (i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (1) at the time the property subject to such Lien is sold or transferred as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Person other than a Loan Party, (2) subject to Section 11.1, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, (3) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee in accordance with this Agreement or (4) that constitutes Excluded Assets; (ii) to release or subordinate, as expressly permitted hereunder, any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien described in clause 6 (with respect to Indebtedness permitted by Section 7.2(b)(vii)) of the definition of Permitted Lien on such property that is permitted by this Agreement to the extent required by the holder of, or pursuant to the terms of any agreement governing, the obligations secured by such Liens; (iii) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder (provided that the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents solely as a result of such Guarantor becoming an Excluded Subsidiary of the type described in clause (i) of the definition thereof shall only be permitted if such Guarantor becomes such an Excluded Subsidiary pursuant to a transaction with a third party that is not otherwise an Affiliate of the Borrower and such transaction was not for the primary purpose of release the Guarantee of such Guarantor).

(b) Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release (pursuant to clause (a) above) any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee.

(d) If (i) a Guarantor was released from its obligations under the Guarantee (ii) the Collateral was released from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Document (or the interest in such item subordinated), the Administrative Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to) execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee, the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 10.10.

185

(e) If as a result of any transaction permitted by this Agreement (i) any Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary (provided that the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents solely as a result of such Guarantor becoming an Excluded Subsidiary of the type described in clause (i) of the definition thereof shall only be permitted if such Guarantor becomes such an Excluded Subsidiary pursuant to a transaction with a third party that is not otherwise an Affiliate of the Borrower and such transaction was not for the primary purpose of release the Guarantee of such Guarantor) or 100% of the Equity Interests of a Guarantor is sold to a Person that is not a Loan Party (or a Guarantor consolidates or merges with a Person that is not a Loan Party), then (x) such Guarantor’s Guarantee and all Liens granted by such Guarantor that is released shall be automatically released, and (y) the Capital Stock of such Guarantor (other than, in the case of a Guarantor that so becomes an Excluded Subsidiary) shall be automatically released from the security interests created by the Loan Documents, (ii) [reserved] or (iii) any asset becomes an Excluded Asset or, then such asset shall be automatically released from any security interests created by the Loan Documents. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 10.10(e), the Administrative Agent and any applicable Lender shall promptly execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 10.10(e) shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively as to any of the matters described in this 10.10 (including as to its authority hereunder) on a certificate or similar instrument provided to it by the Borrower without further inquiry or investigation, which certificate may be delivered to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower.

10.11 Intercreditor Agreements.

The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any intercreditor agreement (including any other Intercreditor Agreement) or arrangement permitted under and expressly contemplated (including with respect to priority) by this Agreement (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of, or supplements or other modifications to, any such agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement), and any such agreement or arrangement will be binding upon the Lenders.

Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in any Security Document, no Qualified Counterparty or Cash Management Provider that obtains the benefits of Section 9.4, any Guarantee or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guarantee or any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 10 to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Cash Management Obligations and Obligations arising under Qualified Hedging Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Provider or Qualified Counterparty, as the case may be.

186

10.12 Withholding Tax Indemnity. To the extent required by any applicable Laws, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall, within 10 days after written demand therefor, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to Sections 2.16 and 2.19 and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 10.12. The agreements in this Section 10.12 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, a “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 10.12, include any Issuing Lender and the Designated Acquisition Swingline Lender.

10.13 Indemnification. Each of the Lenders agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers (and their Related Parties) in their respective capacities as such (to the extent not reimbursed by any Loan Party and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), according to its Aggregate Exposure Percentage in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 10.13 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, in accordance with its Aggregate Exposure Percentage immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers or their Related Parties (the foregoing, the “Lender Indemnitees”) in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or any other Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable to any Lender Indemnitee for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent that they are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Lender Indemnitee. The agreements in this Section 10.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

10.14 Appointment of Incremental Arrangers, Refinancing Arrangers and Loan Modification Agents. In the event that the Borrower appoints or designates any Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent pursuant to (and subject to) Sections 2.25, 2.26 and 2.28, as applicable, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to an agent or arranger with respect to the Incremental Loans, Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt or Loan Modification Agreement, as applicable, shall be exercisable by and vest in such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent to exercise such rights, powers

187

and privileges with respect to the Incremental Loans, Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt or Loan Modification Agreement, as applicable, and to perform such duties with respect to such Incremental Loans, Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt or Loan Modification Agreement, as applicable, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 10 and of Section 11.5 (obligating the Borrower to pay the Administrative Agent’s expenses and to indemnify the Administrative Agent) that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent and/or such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent, as the context may require. Each Lender and Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints any Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent to act on its behalf hereunder and under the other Loan Documents pursuant to (and subject to) Sections 2.25, 2.26 and 2.28, as applicable, and designates and authorizes such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

10.15 Credit Bidding.

The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 11.1 of this Agreement),

188

(iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership interests, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. In the event of a foreclosure by the Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or a sale of any of the Collateral pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (or an equivalent process in any foreign jurisdiction), the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, with the consent or at the direction of the Required Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Administrative Agent at such sale. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

In connection with any such determination, each Lender (other than (x) any Lender that is a Regulated Bank and (y) any Revolving Lender as of the Closing Date) shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing that it is a Net Short Lender, or shall otherwise be deemed to have represented and warranted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not a Net Short Lender (it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on each such representation and deemed representation and shall have no duty to (x) inquire as to or investigate the accuracy of any such representation or deemed representation or (y) otherwise ascertain or monitor whether any Lender, Eligible Assignee or Participant or prospective Lender, Eligible Assignee or Participant is a Net Short Lender or make any calculations, investigations or determinations with respect to any derivative contracts and/or net short positions). Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (A) be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to the Net Short Lenders or (B) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans to any Net Short Lender.

Immediately upon the Borrower’s acquisition of Term Loans from an Affiliated Lender, such Term Loans and all rights and obligations as a Term Lender related thereto shall for all purposes (including under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and otherwise) be deemed to be irrevocably prepaid, terminated, extinguished, canceled and of no further effect and the Borrower shall neither obtain nor have any rights as a Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by virtue of such capital contribution or assignment.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 11.6(b)(iv) shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.17 to the contrary.

(v) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 11.6(b)(vi) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.19, 2.21 and 11.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Other than with respect to Disqualified Lenders, any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.6(b) 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 (c) of this Section 11.6.

(vi) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of (and any stated interest on) the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative 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. No assignment shall be effective unless recorded in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Issuing Lender and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the language in this Section 11.6(b)(vi) is intended to ensure that the Commitments, Loans, L/C Obligations or other obligations under the Loan Documents are in “registered form” under Sections 5f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations Sections and within the meaning of 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code, and such language shall be interpreted and applied consistently therewith.

203

(vii) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire and applicable Forms (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), together with (x) any processing and recordation fee and (y) any written consent to such assignment required by Section 11.6(b), the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than a natural person, a Disqualified Lender, the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires, subject to Section 11.1(b), the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to clauses (A) and (C) of Section 11.1(a) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 11.6(c)(ii), the Borrower agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.19 and 2.21 (subject to the requirements and limitations of those sections) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.6(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.8(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 11.8(a) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the commitment of, and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of, each Participant’s interest in the Loans, L/C Obligations or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, L/C Obligations or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, L/C Obligation or other obligation is in registered form under Sections 5f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code. No participation shall be effective unless recorded in the Participant Register. Unless otherwise required by the IRS, any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the IRS. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.18 or 2.19 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant except to the extent such greater payment is attributable to a Change in Law after the date the Participant acquired the applicable participation. No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 unless such Participant complies with Section 2.19(e) (it being understood that the documentation required thereunder shall be delivered to the participating Lender).

204

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

(e) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in Section 11.6(d) above.

(f) Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in Commitments or Loans, as the case may be, makes, as of the Closing Date or as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment and Assumption, as applicable, the representations and warranties contained in Section 10.7.

(g) Each Lender, upon succeeding to an interest in Commitments or Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment and Assumption that it is an Eligible Assignee.

11.7 [Reserved].

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, with the prior consent of the Administrative Agent, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower and each other Loan Party to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to set off and appropriate and apply against any Obligations then due, payable and owing any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) (other than payroll, trust and tax accounts described in clause (ix) of the definition of “Excluded Assets”), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any such other Loan Party, as the case may be (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Excluded Assets). Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

11.18 Waivers Of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE GUARANTORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

11.19 USA Patriot Act Notification; Beneficial Ownership. Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of the Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Loan Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. The Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests that is required in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

11.20 Maximum Amount.

(a) It is the intention of the Borrower and the Lenders to conform strictly to the usury and similar laws relating to interest from time to time in force, and all agreements between the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries and the Lenders, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by acceleration of maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid in the aggregate to the Lenders as interest (whether or not designated as interest, and including any amount otherwise designated but deemed to constitute interest by a court of competent jurisdiction) hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or in any other agreement given to secure the Indebtedness evidenced hereby or other Obligations of the Borrower, or in any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the Indebtedness evidenced hereby, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable usury or such other laws (the “Maximum Amount”). If under any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provision hereof, or any of the other Loan Documents, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve exceeding the Maximum Amount, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the Maximum Amount. For the purposes of calculating the actual amount of interest paid and/or payable hereunder in respect of laws pertaining to usury or such other laws, all sums paid or agreed to be paid to the holder hereof for the use, forbearance or detention of the Indebtedness of the Borrower evidenced hereby, outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be amortized, pro-rated, allocated and spread from the date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans until payment in full of all of such Indebtedness, so that the actual rate of interest on account of such Indebtedness is uniform through the term hereof. The terms and provisions of this Section 11.20(a) shall control and supersede every other provision of all agreements between the Borrower or any endorser of the Loans and the Lenders.

(b) If under any circumstances any Lender shall ever receive an amount which would exceed the Maximum Amount, such amount shall be deemed a payment in reduction of the principal amount of the Loans and shall be treated as a voluntary prepayment under Section 2.10 and shall be so applied in accordance with Section 2.17 or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of the Loans and any other Indebtedness of the Borrower in favor of such Lender, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment made by mistake and shall be refunded to the Borrower.

210

11.21 Lender Action. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents (including the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Loan Party, unless expressly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Section 11.21 are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party.

11.22 No Fiduciary Duty. Each of the Lender-Related Parties may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their Affiliates. Each Loan Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender-Related Party, on the one hand, and such Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other, except as otherwise explicitly provided herein. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lender-Related Parties, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender-Related Party has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender-Related Party has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender-Related Party is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person, except as otherwise explicitly provided herein. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender-Related Party has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

11.23 Acknowledgments Regarding any Supported QFCs.

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Obligations or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United

211

States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

It is the intention of the First Lien Secured Parties of each series of First Lien Obligations that the holders of the First Lien Obligations of such series (and not the First Lien Secured Parties of any other series of First Lien Obligations (a “Pari Series”)) bear the risk (i) of any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that (x) any of the First Lien Obligations of such series are unenforceable or unperfected under applicable law or are subordinated to any other obligations (other than a Pari Series), (y) the security interest of such series of First Lien Obligations in any of the Shared Collateral securing any other series of First Lien Obligations is not enforceable or unperfected, and/or (z) any intervening security interest exists securing any other obligations (other than a Pari Series of First Lien Obligations) on a basis ranking prior to the security interest of such series of First Lien Obligations but junior to the security interest of any Pari Series of First Lien Obligations (the holder of such intervening security interest, an “Intervening Creditor”) or (ii) the existence of any Collateral for any other series of First Lien Obligations that is not Shared Collateral (any such determination referred to in the foregoing clauses (x), (y) or (z) with respect to any series of First Lien Obligations, an “Impairment” of such series). In the event of any Impairment

D-2


		with respect to any series of First Lien Obligations, the results of such Impairment shall be borne solely by the First Lien Secured Parties of such series, and the rights of the First Lien Secured Parties of such series (including the right to receive distributions in respect of such series of First Lien Obligations pursuant to the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement) set forth in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement shall be modified to the extent necessary so that the effects of such Impairment are borne solely by the First Lien Secured Parties holding the series of First Lien Obligations subject to such Impairment. Additionally, in the event the First Lien Obligations of any series are modified pursuant to applicable law (including pursuant to Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other applicable bankruptcy law), any reference to such First Lien Obligations or the documents governing such First Lien Obligations shall refer to such obligations or documents as so modified.

CREDIT AGREEMENT COLLATERAL AGENT AS BAILEE:		Except as otherwise provided in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement, the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent shall act as gratuitous bailee and agent for the benefit of the Additional First Lien Secured Parties with respect to any Shared Collateral in the possession, control or otherwise requiring notation of the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent solely for the purpose of perfecting (or the equivalent under applicable foreign law) the security interest of such Additional First Lien Secured Parties in such Shared Collateral. The duties or responsibilities of the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent as such gratuitous bailee and agent for perfection shall be limited solely to holding any Shared Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of any Additional First Lien Secured Party for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such Additional First Lien Secured Parties therein.

PRIORITY OF CLAIMS:		If an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement or any Additional First Lien Document) has occurred and is continuing, and (x) the Controlling Collateral Agent (as defined below) or (subject to the terms of the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement) any First Lien Secured Party is taking action to enforce rights in respect of any Shared Collateral in accordance with the terms of the applicable Secured Credit Documents, (y) any distribution is made in respect of any Shared Collateral in any insolvency or liquidation proceeding of any grantor (including any adequate protection payments) or (z) any First Lien Secured Party receives any payment pursuant to any intercreditor agreement (other than the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement) with respect to any Shared Collateral, then, in each case, the proceeds (i) of any sale, collection or other liquidation of any such Shared Collateral by any First Lien Secured Party, (ii) of any distribution received by the Controlling Collateral Agent or any First Lien Secured Party in any insolvency or liquidation proceedings case of any grantor with respect to such Shared

D-3


		Collateral (including any adequate protection payments) and (iii) of any such payment to which the First Lien Obligations are entitled under any intercreditor agreement with respect to the Shared Collateral (other than the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement) (all payments, distributions, proceeds of any sale, collection or other liquidation of any Shared Collateral and all proceeds of any such payment or distribution being collectively referred to as “Proceeds”), will be applied (i) FIRST, to the payment in full of all amounts then due and owing to the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent and each other collateral agent named in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement or any joinder agreement thereto (in its capacity as such) in connection with such collection or sale or otherwise in connection with the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement or any other Secured Credit Document, (ii) SECOND, to the payment in full of the First Lien Obligations then due and payable of each series secured by such Shared Collateral on a ratable basis, with such Proceeds to be applied to the First Lien Obligations then due and payable of a given series in accordance with the terms of the applicable Secured Credit Documents; provided, that following the commencement of any insolvency or liquidation proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any other grantor, solely as among the First Lien Secured Parties and solely for purposes of this clause SECOND and not any other Secured Credit Documents, in the event the value of the Shared Collateral is not sufficient for the entire amount of post-petition interest, fees, and expenses on the First Lien Obligations to be allowed under Section 506(a) and (b) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable provision of the Bankruptcy Code or other bankruptcy law in such insolvency or liquidation proceeding, the amount of First Lien Obligations of each series of First Lien Obligations constituting post-petition interest, fees, or expenses shall include only the maximum amount of post-petition interest, fees, or expenses on the First Lien Obligations allowable under Section 506(a) and (b) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable provision of the Bankruptcy Code or other bankruptcy law in such insolvency or liquidation proceeding and (iii) THIRD, to the applicable Loan Parties or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

CONTROLLING COLLATERAL AGENT:		The “Controlling Collateral Agent” means (i) until the earlier of (x) the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations (to be defined in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement) and (y) the Non-Controlling Authorized Representative Enforcement Date (as defined below), the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent and (ii) from and after the earlier of (x) the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations and (y) the Non-Controlling Authorized Representative Enforcement Date, the Additional First Lien Collateral Agent (as defined below). Pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Parity Intercreditor

D-4

Agreement, only the Controlling Collateral Agent (acting upon the instructions of the Applicable Authorized Representative (as defined below)) will act or refrain from acting with respect to any Shared Collateral. For so long as the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent is the Controlling Collateral Agent, no Additional First Lien Secured Party will or will instruct any collateral agent to, and neither the Additional First Lien Collateral Agent nor any other collateral agent that is not the Controlling Collateral Agent will, commence any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce its security interest in or realize upon, or take any other action available to it in respect of, any Shared Collateral. Notwithstanding the equal priority of the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing each series of First Lien Obligations, the Controlling Collateral Agent may deal with the Shared Collateral as if such Controlling Collateral Agent had a senior Lien on such Collateral. No Non-Controlling Authorized Representative (as defined below) or Non-Controlling Secured Party (to be defined in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement) will contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Controlling Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or the Controlling Secured Party (to be defined in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement) or any other exercise by the Controlling Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or the Controlling Secured Party of any rights and remedies relating to the Shared Collateral, or to cause the Controlling Collateral Agent to do so.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) in any insolvency or liquidation proceeding, any Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party may file a proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the First Lien Obligations owed to the First Lien Secured Parties; (ii) any Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party may take any action to preserve or protect the validity and enforceability of the liens granted in favor of First Lien Secured Parties, provided that no such action is, or could reasonably be expected to be, (A) adverse to the liens granted in favor of the Controlling Secured Parties or the rights of the Applicable Authorized Representative or any other Controlling Secured Parties to exercise remedies in respect thereof or (B) otherwise inconsistent with the terms of the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement; and (iii) any Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party may file any responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims or liens of such First Lien Secured Party, including any claims secured by the Shared Collateral, in each case, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement.

D-5


		The “Non-Controlling Authorized Representative Enforcement Date” means, with respect to any Non-Controlling Authorized Representative (as defined below), the date which is 120 days (throughout which 120 day period such Non-Controlling Authorized Representative was the Major Non-Controlling Authorized Representative (as defined below)) after the occurrence of both (i) an Event of Default (under and as defined in the Additional First Lien Document under which such Non-Controlling Authorized Representative is the Authorized Representative) and (ii) each collateral agent’s and each other Authorized Representative’s receipt of written notice from such Non-Controlling Authorized Representative certifying that (x) such Non-Controlling Authorized Representative is the Major Non-Controlling Authorized Representative and that an Event of Default (under and as defined in the Additional First Lien Document under which such Non-Controlling Authorized Representative is the Authorized Representative) has occurred and is continuing, (y) the Additional First Lien Obligations of the series with respect to which such Non-Controlling Authorized Representative is the Authorized Representative are currently due and payable in full (whether as a result of acceleration thereof or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of the applicable Additional First Lien Document, and (z) such Non-Controlling Authorized Representative intends to exercise its rights and remedies in accordance with the terms of the applicable Additional First Lien Documents as a result of the series of Additional First Lien Obligations of such Non-Controlling Authorized Representative being due and payable in full (as a result of acceleration or otherwise); provided that the Non-Controlling Authorized Representative Enforcement Date shall be stayed and shall not occur and shall be deemed not to have occurred with respect to any Shared Collateral at any time the Controlling Collateral Agent has commenced and is diligently pursuing (or shall have sought or requested relief from or modification of the automatic stay or any other stay in any insolvency or liquidation proceeding to enable the commencement or pursuit thereof) the enforcement or exercise of any of its rights or remedies with respect to all or any material portion of the Shared Collateral or at any time any grantor or loan party is then a debtor under or with respect to any insolvency or liquidation proceeding.

		“Applicable Authorized Representative” means, with respect to any Shared Collateral, (i) until the earlier of (x) the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations and (y) the Non-Controlling Authorized Representative Enforcement Date, the Administrative Agent and (ii) from and after the earlier of (x) the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations and (y) the Non-Controlling Authorized Representative Enforcement Date, the Major Non-Controlling Authorized Representative.

D-6


		“Additional First Lien Collateral Agent” means (x) for so long as the Initial Additional First Lien Obligations are the only series of Additional First Lien Obligations, the collateral agent for the Initial Additional First Lien Obligations represented by the Initial Additional Authorized Representative (to be defined in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement) and (y) if (x) does not apply, the collateral agent for the series of First Lien Obligations represented by the Major Non-Controlling Authorized Representative.

		“Non-Controlling Authorized Representative” means, at any time with respect to any Shared Collateral, any Authorized Representative that is not the Applicable Authorized Representative at such time with respect to such Shared Collateral.

PROHIBITION ON CONTESTING LIENS:		Each of the First Lien Secured Parties will not (including in any insolvency or liquidation proceeding) contest, or support any other person in contesting, the priority, validity, enforceability, perfection or protection of a lien on Shared Collateral held by or on behalf of any of the First Lien Secured Parties.

TURNOVER OF PROCEEDS:		If any First Lien Secured Party obtains possession of any Shared Collateral or realizes any Proceeds or payment in respect of any such Shared Collateral other than pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement, then it will hold such Shared Collateral, Proceeds or payment in trust for the other First Lien Secured Parties and promptly transfer such Shared Collateral, Proceeds or payment, as the case may be, to the Controlling Collateral Agent, to be distributed in accordance with the “Priority of Claims” provision above.

LIEN AND GUARANTEE RELEASES:		If at any time the Controlling Collateral Agent forecloses upon or otherwise exercises remedies against any Shared Collateral in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement resulting in a sale or disposition thereof, then the Liens in favor of any other collateral agent for the benefit of each series of First Lien Secured Parties upon such Shared Collateral will automatically be released and discharged as and when, but only to the extent, such Liens of the Controlling Collateral Agent on such Shared Collateral are released and discharged; provided that any Proceeds of any Shared Collateral realized therefrom will be (1) to the extent not applied as specified in clause (2), subjected to

D-7


		Liens in favor of all First Lien Secured Parties with the same priority among such First Lien Secured Parties as set forth in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement and/or (2) applied in accordance with the “Priority of Claims” provision above. If in connection with any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies the Controlling Collateral Agent releases any guarantor from its obligations under a guarantee of the First Lien Obligations for which it serves as agent, then such guarantor will also be released from its guarantee of all other First Lien Obligations. Each Collateral Agent and Authorized Representative will (at the Borrower’s sole expense) execute and deliver such documents as the Controlling Collateral Agent (or Borrower) may reasonably request to evidence and confirm any release of Liens on Shared Collateral in connection with the foregoing.

AMENDMENTS OF ANY FIRST LIEN OBLIGATIONS:		The First Lien Obligations of any series may, subject to the limitations set forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Secured Credit Documents then in effect, be increased, extended, renewed, replaced, restated, supplemented, restructured, repaid, refunded, refinanced or otherwise amended or modified from time to time, all without affecting the priorities set forth above in “Priority of Claims” or the provisions of the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement otherwise defining the relative rights of the First Lien Secured Parties of any series.

DIP FINANCING AND USE OF CASH COLLATERAL:		If in connection with any insolvency proceeding of any grantor, a grantor, as debtor(s)-in-possession, moves for approval of financing (“DIP Financing”) to be provided by one or more lenders or a third party (the “DIP Lenders”) and/or the use of cash collateral, no First Lien Secured Party (other than any Controlling Collateral Agent or the Authorized Representative of any Controlling Collateral Agent) will raise any objection to any such financing or to the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the same (“DIP Financing Liens”) or to any use of cash collateral that constitutes Shared Collateral, unless the Applicable Authorized Representative then opposes or objects to such DIP Financing or such DIP Financing Liens and/or use of cash collateral (and (i) to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens are senior to the Liens on any such Shared Collateral for the benefit of the Controlling Secured Parties (to be defined in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement), each Non-Controlling Secured Party (to be defined in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement) will subordinate its Liens with respect to such Shared Collateral on the same terms as the Liens of the Controlling Secured Parties (other than any Liens of any First Lien Secured Parties constituting DIP Financing Liens) are subordinated thereto, and (ii) to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens rank pari passu with the Liens on any such Shared Collateral granted to secure the First Lien Obligations of the Controlling Secured Parties, each Non-Controlling Secured Party will confirm the

D-8


		priorities with respect to such Shared Collateral as set forth herein), in each case so long as (A) the First Lien Secured Parties of each series retain the benefit of their Liens on all such Shared Collateral pledged to the DIP Lenders, including Proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such proceeding, with the same priority vis-à-vis all the other First Lien Secured Parties (other than any Liens of the First Lien Secured Parties constituting DIP Financing Liens that rank senior to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations) and subject to a customary carve-out or other carve-out approved by the Controlling Collateral Agent as existed prior to the commencement of the applicable insolvency or liquidation proceeding, (B) the First Lien Secured Parties of each series are granted Liens on any additional or replacement Collateral pledged to any First Lien Secured Parties as adequate protection or otherwise in connection with such DIP Financing and/or use of cash collateral, with the same priority vis-à-vis the other First Lien Secured Parties (other than any Liens of any First Lien Secured Parties constituting DIP Financing Liens that rank senior to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations) as set forth in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement, (C) if any amount of such DIP Financing and/or cash collateral is applied to repay any of the First Lien Obligations, such amount is applied in accordance with “Priority of Claims” above, and (D) if any First Lien Secured Parties are granted adequate protection payments, including in the form of periodic payments, in connection with such DIP Financing and/or use of cash collateral, the Proceeds of such adequate protection payments are applied in accordance with “Priority of Claims” above; provided that the First Lien Secured Parties of each series will have a right to object to the grant of a Lien to secure the DIP Financing over any Collateral subject to Liens in favor of the First Lien Secured Parties of such series or its Authorized Representative that does not constitute Shared Collateral; and provided, further, that the First Lien Secured Parties receiving adequate protection will not object to any other First Lien Secured Party receiving adequate protection comparable to any adequate protection granted to such First Lien Secured Parties in connection with a DIP Financing and/or use of cash collateral. If any First Lien Secured Party is granted adequate protection (A) in the form of Liens on any additional or replacement Collateral, then each other First Lien Secured Party will be entitled to seek, and each First Lien Secured Party will consent and not object to, adequate protection in the form of Liens on such additional or replacement Collateral with the same priority vis-à-vis the other First Lien Secured Parties (other than any Liens of any First Lien Secured Parties constituting DIP Financing Liens that rank senior to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations) as set forth in the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement, (B) in the form of a superpriority or other administrative claim, then each other First Lien Secured Party will be entitled to seek, and each First Lien Secured Party will consent and not object to, adequate protection in the form of a pari passu superpriority or administrative claim or (C) in the form of periodic or other cash payments, then the Proceeds of such adequate protection must be applied to all First Lien Obligations in accordance with “Priority of Claims” above.

Reference is made to the Credit Agreement, dated as of October 14, 2020 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among Baldwin Risk Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower), the Guarantors from time to time party thereto, the several banks, financial institutions, institutional investors and other entities from time to time party thereto as lenders, the Issuing Lenders from time to time party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement and used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 6.9(c) of the Credit Agreement, the undersigned Subsidiary (the “New Guarantor”), is required to become a Guarantor under the Credit Agreement by executing a Joinder Agreement. The New Guarantor is executing this joinder agreement (“Joinder Agreement”) to the Credit Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make additional Revolving Loans and the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit and as consideration for the Loans previously made and Letters of Credit previously issued.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Administrative Agent and the New Guarantor hereby agree as follows:

Guarantee. In accordance with Section 6.9(c) of the Credit Agreement, the New Guarantor by its signature below becomes a Guarantor under the Credit Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Guarantor and all references in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the term “Guarantor” shall be deemed to include the New Guarantor.

Representations and Warranties. The New Guarantor hereby (a) agrees to all the terms, conditions, covenants and other provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents applicable to it as a Guarantor thereunder and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a Guarantor thereunder are true and correct in all material respects (except where such representations and warranties are already qualified by materiality, in which case such representation and warranty shall be accurate in all respects) on and as of the date hereof as if made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except where such representations and warranties are already qualified by materiality, in which case such representation and warranty shall be accurate in all respects) as of such earlier date. Each reference to a Guarantor in the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Guarantor. The New Guarantor hereby attaches supplements to the schedules to the Credit Agreement applicable to it.

Loan Document. This Joinder Agreement shall constitute a Loan Document.

Severability.

The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Joinder Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of electronic records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

No Waiver. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

FORM OF GLOBAL INTERCOMPANY NOTE

Note Number: [•]

Dated: [•], 20

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, each of the undersigned, to the extent a borrower (each, in such capacity, a “Payor”) from time to time from any Person listed on Schedule A attached hereto (each, in such capacity, a “Payee”), hereby promises to pay on demand to such Person, in lawful money as may be agreed upon from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee, in immediately available funds and at the appropriate office of the Payee, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all loans and advances heretofore and hereafter made by such Payee to such Payor and any other Indebtedness now or hereafter owing by such Payor to such Payee as shown either on Schedule B attached hereto, as may be updated from time to time (and any continuation thereof) or in the books and records of such Payee. The failure to show any such Indebtedness or any error in showing such Indebtedness shall not affect the obligations of any Payor hereunder. Capitalized terms used in this global intercompany promissory note (this, “Intercompany Note”) but not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings given such terms in the Credit Agreement, dated as of October 14, 2020 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among Baldwin Risk Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors from time to time party thereto , the several banks, financial institutions, institutional investors and other entities from time to time party thereto as lenders, the Issuing Lenders from time to time party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).

The unpaid principal amount hereof from time to time outstanding shall bear interest at a rate equal to the rate as may be agreed upon in writing from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee. Interest shall be due and payable at such times as may be agreed upon from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee. Upon demand for payment of any principal amount hereof, accrued but unpaid interest on such principal amount shall also be due and payable. Interest shall be paid in any lawful currency as may be agreed upon by the relevant Payor and Payee and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be computed as may be agreed upon by the relevant Payor and Payee.

Each Payor and any endorser of this Intercompany Note hereby waives presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights hereunder on the part of the holder hereof shall operate as a waiver of such rights.

This Intercompany Note has been pledged by each Payee that is a Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the Obligations. Each Payor acknowledges and agrees that after the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties may exercise all the rights of the Payee (if the Payee is a Loan Party at such time) under this Intercompany Note and will not be subject to any abatement, reduction, recoupment, defense, setoff or counterclaim available to such Payor.

Each Payee agrees that all Indebtedness evidenced by this Intercompany Note and any and all claims of such Payee against any Payor that is a Loan Party or any endorser of this Intercompany Note, or against any of their respective properties, shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the Obligations; provided, that each Payor that is a Loan Party may make payments to the applicable Payee so long as (a) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (b) the Administrative Agent has not notified the Borrower that no Payor is to make any payment hereunder; and provided, further, that all loans and advances made by a Payee pursuant to this Intercompany Note shall be received by the applicable Payor subject to the provisions of the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any right of any Payee to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from any Payor, all rights, Liens and security interests of such

J-1

Payee, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any Payor constituting part of the Collateral (such assets, the “Specified Collateral”) shall be and hereby are expressly subordinate to the rights of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties in the Specified Collateral. Except as expressly permitted by the Loan Documents, the Payees shall have no right to possession of any Specified Collateral or to foreclose upon, or exercise any other remedy in respect of, any Specified Collateral, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless the Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full, all Commitments have terminated and all Letters of Credit have expired or been terminated (other than Letters of Credit that have been Collateralized) (the “Payment in Full”).

After the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, if all or any part of the assets of any Payor, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of any Payor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, suspension of payments, moratorium of any indebtedness, winding-up, dissolution, administration, scheme of arrangement or assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other step, analogous procedure, action or proceeding, or if the business of any Payor is dissolved or if (except as permitted by the Loan Documents) all or substantially all of the assets of any Payor are sold, then, and in any such event, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other investment property, or otherwise, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness of such Payor that is a Loan Party to any Payee that is not a Loan Party (“Payor Indebtedness”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Administrative Agent for application to the Obligations. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing after prior written notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, then no payment or distribution of any kind or character shall be made by or on behalf of the Payor that is a Loan Party or any other person on its behalf with respect to this Intercompany Note and no amount may be received by or on behalf of any Payee that is not a Loan Party with respect to this Intercompany Note. After the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Payee (if the Payee is a Loan Party) irrevocably authorizes, empowers and appoints the Administrative Agent as such Payee’s attorney-in-fact (which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable) to demand, sue for, collect and receive every such payment or distribution and give acquittance therefor and to make and present for and on behalf of such Payee such proofs of claim and take such other action, in the Administrative Agent’s own name or in the name of such Payee or otherwise, as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the enforcement of this Intercompany Note. After the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Payee also agrees to execute, verify, deliver and file any such proofs of claim in respect of the Payor Indebtedness requested by the Administrative Agent. After the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may vote such proofs of claim in any such proceeding (and the applicable Payee shall not be entitled to withdraw such vote), receive and collect any and all dividends or other payments or disbursements made on Payor Indebtedness in whatever form the same may be paid or issued and apply the same on account of any of the Obligations in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Should any payment, distribution, security or other investment property, instrument or other property or any proceeds thereof be received (despite these subordination provisions) or in violation of the foregoing before Payment in Full by any Payee that is not a Loan Party, such Payee shall receive and hold the same for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties, and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of such Payee where necessary or advisable in the Administrative Agent’s judgment), for application to any of the Obligations in accordance with the Credit Agreement, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be segregated from the other assets of such Payee for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if such Payee fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, employees or representatives are hereby irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Payee agrees that until the Payment in Full, such Payee will not (i) assign or transfer, or agree to assign or transfer, to any Person (other than in favor of the Administrative Agent) any claim such Payee has or may have against any

J-2

Payor, (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, discount or extend the time for payment of any Payor Indebtedness, or (iii) otherwise amend, modify, supplement, waive or fail to enforce any provision of this Intercompany Note; provided that supplements and amendments that are not adverse to the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties or to add additional parties as permitted by the Credit Agreement shall be permitted.

The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be express third party beneficiaries hereof and shall be entitled to enforce the subordination and other provisions hereof. Each Payee acknowledges and agrees that the subordination provisions hereof are intended to be and shall be enforceable as a “subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other applicable bankruptcy law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in any other Loan Document or in any such promissory note or other instrument, this Intercompany Note shall be deemed to replace and supersede any promissory note or other instrument entered into before and after the date hereof which purports to create or evidence any loan or advance by any Group Member to any other Group Member.

THIS INTERCOMPANY NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

From time to time after the date hereof, additional Subsidiaries of the Borrower may become parties hereto by executing a counterpart signature page to this Intercompany Note (each additional Subsidiary, an “Additional Payor”). Upon delivery of such counterpart signature page to the Payees, notice of which is hereby waived by the other Payors, each Additional Payor shall be a Payor and/or Payee and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Payor were an original signatory hereof. Each Payor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Payor hereunder. This Intercompany Note shall be fully effective as to any Payor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Payor hereunder.

This Intercompany Note may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Intercompany Note by facsimile, pdf or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Intercompany Note.
