Introductory Note

On December 11, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), CIRCOR International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), completed the acquisition of the fluid handling business (the “Business”) of Colfax Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Colfax”) (the “Transaction”). The Transaction was effected pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 24, 2017 (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and between Colfax and the Company.

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Stockholder Agreement

In connection with the Company’s issuance of the Stock Consideration (as defined below) to Colfax, in partial consideration of the Transaction, on the Closing Date the Company and Colfax entered into a Stockholder Agreement (the “Stockholder Agreement”). The Stockholder Agreement imposes certain restrictions on Colfax, including prohibiting certain transfers of the shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), issued to Colfax (i) until six months after the date of the Stockholder Agreement (the “Lock-Up Period”) or (ii) to certain competitors of the Company or certain other parties that beneficially own more than 5% of the Company’s then outstanding voting shares. Colfax is also subject to customary standstill limitations, including but not limited to, acquiring, offering or seeking to acquire any securities of the Company, participating in any acquisition of assets or business of the Company, participating in any “tender offer” involving securities of the Company, or otherwise acting in concert with others to seek to change, control or influence the board of directors or stockholders of the Company.

Under the Stockholder Agreement, so long as Colfax beneficially owns at least 5% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock, Colfax agrees to vote its shares of Common Stock in a manner proportionally consistent with the vote of shares of Common Stock held by other stockholders of the Company. Colfax is also required to cause each voting security over which it has voting control to be voted at all meetings of stockholders of the Company.

After the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, Colfax has the right to demand that the Company register Colfax’s shares for resale pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or such other registration form as the Company is eligible to use, which the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to file within 90 days of the Closing Date, if such a registration statement for Colfax’s shares is not already effective. Colfax also has the right to demand that the Company file a prospectus supplement to an effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (a “Takedown Prospectus Supplement”) covering Colfax’s shares, and to effect an underwritten public offering pursuant to the Takedown Prospectus Supplement (an “Underwritten Offering”). Colfax is entitled to demand three Underwritten Offerings in a twelve-month period. The Company has the right to refuse Colfax’s demands to effect an Underwritten Offering in certain situations. Colfax also has the right to receive notice of any underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities, and to request to participate in such underwritten public offering, subject to certain limitations. Pursuant to the Stockholder Agreement, the Company will pay all expenses incurred in connection with Colfax’s registration rights (including reasonable fees of a single outside counsel and local counsel for Colfax), other than Colfax’s underwriting discounts. The Stockholder Agreement will terminate upon such time as there are no more shares of Common Stock covered by the Stockholder Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Stockholder Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Stockholder Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Credit Agreement

On the Closing Date, the Company entered into a new Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, as borrower, certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as term loan administrative agent and collateral agent, SunTrust Bank, as revolver administrative agent, swing line lender and a letter of credit issuer, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc., as joint-lead arrangers and joint-bookrunners, and Citizens Bank, N.A. and HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. as co-managers. The New Credit Agreement provides for a seven-year senior secured term loan which was funded at closing in full, in an aggregate principal amount of $785.0 million, and a five-year senior secured revolving credit facility, available in an aggregate principal amount of up to $150.0 million. The term loan requires scheduled quarterly payments each in an amount equal to 0.25% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the term loan at closing, beginning with the quarter ending March 31, 2018, with the balance due at maturity. Additional loans of up to $150.0 million (plus the amount of certain voluntary prepayments) and an unlimited amount subject to compliance with a first lien net leverage ratio of 4.90 to 1.00 may be made available under the New Credit Agreement upon request of the Company subject to specified terms and conditions. The Company may repay any borrowings under the New Credit Agreement at any time, subject to certain

limited and customary restrictions stated in the New Credit Agreement; provided, however, that if the Company prepays all or any portion of the term loan in connection with a repricing transaction on or prior to the 6-month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company must pay a prepayment premium of 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the term loan so prepaid. The outstanding principal amounts bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum plus an applicable margin of 3.50% with respect to LIBOR loans and 2.50% with respect to base rate loans.

The New Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties for the benefit of the Lenders. Pursuant to the New Credit Agreement, the Company must comply with various non-financial covenants and, with respect to the revolving credit facility, a springing maximum first lien net leverage ratio covenant. The primary non-financial covenants include, but are not limited to, restrictions on the Company’s ability to conduct certain mergers or acquisitions, sell certain assets, incur certain future indebtedness or liens, sell or acquire certain subsidiaries, make certain restricted payments and make certain investments or loans. The New Credit Agreement also includes certain customary events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults, representation or warranty inaccuracies, covenant violations, cross-defaults to other agreements evidencing indebtedness for borrowed money, invalidity of certain loan documents relating to the New Credit Agreement, certain judgments, bankruptcy and insolvency events and the occurrence of events constituting a Change of Control (as defined in the New Credit Agreement). The Lenders are entitled to accelerate repayment of the loans under the New Credit Agreement upon the occurrence and continuance of any events of default under the New Credit Agreement.

The New Credit Agreement replaced and terminated the Company’s prior Credit Agreement, dated as of May 11, 2017 (the “Prior Credit Agreement”), among the Company, as borrower, certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, the lenders from time to time party thereto, SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent, swing line lender and a letter of credit issuer, SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc., KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and Citizens Bank, National Association, as joint-lead arrangers and joint-bookrunners, KeyBank National Association, as syndication agent, and Citizens Bank, National Association, as documentation agent. At the time it was replaced and terminated, the Company had approximately $274 million outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement. On the Closing Date, the Company borrowed the entire principal amount of the term loan and $40 million of revolving loans to finance, in part, the cash portion of the purchase price for the Transaction, repay amounts outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement, and pay related fees, expenses and other transaction costs. In addition, certain of the lenders and the other parties to the New Credit Agreement and their respective affiliates are lenders and/or agents under the Prior Credit Agreement, the indebtedness outstanding under which was repaid in connection with the Transaction, and as such have received a portion of the net proceeds from the loans under the New Credit Agreement.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees all of the obligations under the New Credit Agreement. To secure their respective obligations under the New Credit Agreement, the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor have granted a lien in favor of the secured parties thereunder, in substantially all of their assets, subject to certain customary exclusions.

The foregoing description of the New Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the New Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K regarding the termination of the Prior Credit Agreement is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.02.

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On the Closing Date, the Company completed the previously announced acquisition of the Business, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Business is comprised of various companies and business assets, each of which was acquired by the Company or by a subsidiary of the Company.

In consideration of the Transaction, on the Closing Date, the Company issued 3,283,424 shares of Common Stock to Colfax (the “Stock Consideration”). The 3,283,424 shares issued to Colfax represents approximately 16.6% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding after the closing of the Transaction. The cash consideration for the Transaction totaled approximately $542.0 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments and transaction-related payments (the “Cash Consideration”). The Cash Consideration was funded in part with amounts received under the New Credit Agreement described in Item 1.01 above.

Each of the Company and Colfax has agreed to customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Purchase Agreement. The representations and warranties survive for a period of 12 months after the Transaction, subject to specified

exceptions. The Purchase Agreement also includes indemnification obligations of both the Company and Colfax in favor of the other party, including for breaches of representations, warranties and covenants included in the Purchase Agreement.

The foregoing description of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

The representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement reflect negotiations between the parties and are not intended as statements of fact to be relied upon by the Company’s stockholders; in certain cases, these representations and warranties merely represent allocation decisions among the parties, have been modified or qualified by certain confidential disclosures that were made between the parties in connection with the negotiation of the Purchase Agreement, which disclosures are not reflected in the Purchase Agreement itself, may no longer be true as of a given date and may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by stockholders. As such, the representations and warranties are solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement and may be limited or modified by a variety of factors, including: subsequent events, information included in public filings, disclosures made during negotiations, correspondence between the parties and disclosure schedules to the Purchase Agreement.

ARTICLE 5

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 5.1. Demand Registration.

(a) Subject to the Stockholder’s satisfaction of its obligations under Section 5.25 of the Purchase Agreement with respect to the financial statements then required, from and after the end of the Lock-Up Period, the Stockholder may request in writing (a “Request”) (a) that the Company file a prospectus supplement (the “Takedown Prospectus Supplement”) to an effective Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act with respect to the Registrable Securities identified in the Request (a “Takedown Request”) or, (b) if such Shelf Registration Statement is not available for the resale of the Registrable Securities, including if for any reason the Company shall be ineligible to maintain or use a Shelf Registration Statement, that the Company register under the Securities Act all or part of the Registrable Securities that are Beneficially Owned by the Stockholder or its Affiliates (i) on a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or, (ii) if the Company is not then eligible to file a Form S-3, any other available form (a “Demand Registration”), in each case, including sales or distributions by way of underwritten offering, block trade or other distribution plan designated by the Stockholder. The Stockholder shall be entitled to make no more than three (3) Requests for an underwritten offering in any twelve-month period (it being understood that each underwritten offering (including any underwritten block trade) under this Agreement shall count as a Request, even if such offering is a Takedown Request conducted pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and regardless of whether such offering is publicly marketed before or after the underwriters agree to purchase the Registrable Securities, unless the Stockholder withdraws its request in the circumstances described in the second sentence of Section 5.6), and each such Request shall be to register an amount of Registrable Securities equal to the lesser of (i) an aggregate market value as of the date of such Request of at least fifty million dollars ($50,000,000) and (ii) the total outstanding Registrable Securities then held by the Stockholder; provided, that any Request pursuant to this clause (ii) shall have a minimum aggregate market value as of the date of such Request of at least twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000). The Company shall not be obligated to effect a Demand Registration or Takedown Request during the sixty (60) day period following the effective date of a Registration Statement pursuant to any other Demand Registration or the closing of any underwritten offering pursuant to a Takedown Request. Each Request pursuant to this Section 5.1(a) shall be in writing and shall specify the number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered and the intended method of distribution of such Registrable Securities. Nothing in this Article 5 shall affect, supersede or otherwise modify any of the restrictions

on Transfer set forth in Article 2 or any other provision of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, underwritten overnight bought deals will count as a Request.

(b) Subject to the Stockholder’s satisfaction of its obligations under Section 5.25 of the Purchase Agreement with respect to the financial statements then required, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) on Form S-3 (an “Automatic Shelf Registration Statement”), or if the Company does not qualify as a well-known seasoned issuer as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act (a “WKSI”), a Registration Statement (which shall be on Form S-3 if the Company is then eligible to use such form) permitting the public resale of Registrable Securities, on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder (including any Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, a “Shelf Registration Statement”), or otherwise designating an existing Shelf Registration Statement with the SEC, covering the sale or distribution of all of the Registrable Securities from time to time by the Stockholder pursuant to one or more Takedown Requests, including by way of underwritten offering, block trade or other distribution plan designated by the Stockholder, and to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to become or be deemed effective by the end of the Lock-up Period.

Section 5.2. Restrictions on Registrations. The Company may postpone the filing or the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of a supplement or amendment thereto (including any Takedown Request) or suspend the use of an effective Registration Statement if the Board of Directors determines in good faith that such Demand Registration or Shelf Registration, as the case may be, would (i) reasonably be expected to materially impede, delay, interfere with or otherwise have a material adverse effect on any material acquisition of assets (other than in the ordinary course of business), merger, consolidation, tender offer, financing or any other material business transaction by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) require disclosure of information that has not been, and is otherwise not required to be, disclosed to the public, the premature disclosure of which the Company, after consultation with outside counsel to the Company, believes would materially and adversely affect the Company (any such period to be referred to as a “Blackout Period”). The Company shall not exercise its postponement rights in this Section 5.2 more than twice during any period of twelve (12) consecutive months and such Blackout Period shall not be more than seventy-five (75) days and all Blackout Periods (irrespective of individual duration) shall not total more than ninety (90) days during any such period of twelve (12) consecutive months; provided that a Blackout Period may not commence less than 30 days following the end of the most recently completed Blackout Period. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be permitted to file a registration statement to register for sale, or to conduct any registered securities offerings (including any “take-downs” off of an effective shelf registration statement) of, any of its securities either for its own account or the account of any security holder or holders during any Blackout Period.

Section 5.3. Maintenance of Shelf Registration Statements. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts and take all actions required or reasonably requested by the Stockholder to maintain the effectiveness of its Shelf Registration Statement until the earlier of such time as (i) all Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant

thereto and (ii) such Registrable Securities cease to be Registrable Securities, in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder and subject to the Blackout Periods set forth in Section 5.2 including, if necessary, by renewing or refiling a Shelf Registration Statement prior to expiration of the existing Shelf Registration Statement or by filing with the SEC a post-effective amendment or a supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or any document incorporated therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing or amending the Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities or blue sky Laws, or any rules and regulations thereunder. The Company shall pay the registration fee with respect to the filing of a Shelf Registration Statement or, in the case of an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, a “take-down” from such Automatic Shelf Registration Statement within the time period required by applicable Law. If, at any time following the filing of an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement when the Company is required to re-evaluate its WKSI status, the Company determines that it is not a WKSI, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to post-effectively amend the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement to a Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 or file a new Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3, have such Shelf Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC and keep such Shelf Registration Statement effective during the period in which such Shelf Registration Statement is required to be kept effective in accordance with this Article 5.

Section 5.4. Selection of Underwriters; Underwritten Offering. If the Stockholder so notifies the Company in a Request, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause a Demand Registration or Takedown Request to be in the form of an underwritten offering. In connection with any underwritten Demand Registration or Takedown Request, the Stockholder shall have the right to select the managing underwriter, provided, that such underwriter shall be a nationally recognized investment bank. Within two (2) Business Days following the Stockholder’s Request, the Company shall have the right to select an additional underwriter to serve as co-managing underwriter with equal economics but listed to the right of the managing underwriter selected by the Stockholder, provided, that such underwriter shall be a nationally recognized investment bank reasonably acceptable to the Stockholder and provided further that the Company shall not have the right to select an additional underwriter for overnight block trades where such selection would, in the reasonable judgement of the Stockholder, have a materially adverse effect on the success of the offering. The Stockholder may not participate in any registration under this Agreement which is underwritten unless the Stockholder agrees to sell the Registrable Securities held by the Stockholder on the basis provided in any underwriting agreement with the underwriters and completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other customary documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

Section 5.5. Piggyback Registrations.

(a) If the Company determines to publicly sell in an underwritten offering (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a “take-down” pursuant to a prospectus supplement to an effective shelf registration statement) or register for sale any of its securities either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than a registration pursuant to Section

5.1, a registration relating solely to any employee or director equity or equity-based incentive or compensation plan or arrangement or any similar employee or director compensation or benefit plan on Form S-8, a registration relating to the offer and sale of securities of any class other than the Registrable Securities even if such securities are convertible or exchangeable into securities of the same class as Registrable Securities, or a registration relating solely to a corporate reorganization (including by way of merger of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with any other business) or acquisition of another business, any registration relating solely to an exchange of the Company’s own securities or a registration on any registration form that does not permit secondary sales (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall (i) as soon as reasonably practicable but in no event less than five (5) Business Days prior to the initial filing of a registration statement or preliminary prospectus supplement, as the case may be, in connection with such Piggyback Registration (or less than two (2) days prior to the date of the commencement of any such offering if such Piggyback Registration is conducted as an underwritten unmarketed block trade) give written notice of its intention to effect such sale or registration to the Stockholder and (ii) subject to Section 5.5(b) and Section 5.5(c), include in such Piggyback Registration and in any underwriting involved therein (whether prior to or following the expiration of the Lock-Up Period) all of such Registrable Securities as are specified in a written request or requests (“Piggyback Requests”) made by the Stockholder received by the Company within three (3) days of receipt of such notice from the Company (or two (2) days with respect to an underwritten umarketed block trade). Such Piggyback Requests shall specify the number of Registrable Securities requested to be disposed of by the Stockholder.

(b) If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary offering on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their good faith opinion the aggregate number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering without adversely affecting the success of such offering (including an adverse effect on the offering price), the Company shall include in such registration only such securities as the Company is advised by such managing underwriters can be sold without such an effect, which securities shall be included in the following order of priority:

(i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell,

(ii) second, the securities requested to be included in such registration by the Stockholder, and

(iii) third, any other securities requested to be included in such registration.

(c) If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten secondary offering on behalf of any holder of Other Registrable Securities, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their good faith opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering without adversely affecting the success of such offering (including an adverse effect on the offering price), the Company shall include in such registration only such securities as the Company is advised by such managing underwriters can be sold without such an effect, which securities shall be included in the following order of priority: (i) first, the securities requested to be included in such registration

by the Stockholder and the Other Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration on a pro rata basis and (ii) second, any other securities requested to be included in such registration.

(d) The Company and any holder of Other Registrable Securities initiating any Piggyback Registration shall have the right to, in its sole discretion, defer, terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 5.5 whether or not the Stockholder has elected to include any Registrable Securities in such registration.

Section 5.6. Withdrawals. The Stockholder may withdraw all or any part of the Registrable Securities from a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement. If such withdrawal is made primarily as a result of the failure of the Company to comply with any provision of this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the payment of all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration and such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration for purposes of Section 5.1. In the case of any other withdrawal, the Stockholder shall pay for the Registration Expenses associated with the withdrawn registration unless the Stockholder counts such withdrawn registration as one of its three (3) Requests referred to in Section 5.1(a).

Section 5.7. Registration Procedures. Whenever the Stockholder has made a Request in accordance with Section 5.1 that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall as expeditiously as reasonably practicable:

(a) (i) no later than fifteen (15) days, in connection with a Demand Registration, or five (5) Business Days, in connection with a Takedown Request (or two (2) Business Days if the offering requested in the Takedown Request is to be conducted as an underwritten unmarketed block trade), after the receipt by the Company of the applicable Request but subject to the Blackout Periods set forth in Section 5.2, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a Required Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement, as the case may be, providing for the registration under the Securities Act or the offering of the Registrable Securities which the Stockholder has specified in the applicable Request and in accordance with the intended methods of distribution thereof specified in such Request. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts (A) to have such Required Registration Statement, in connection with a Demand Registration, declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable thereafter and subject to the Blackout Periods set forth in Section 5.2, to keep such Required Registration Statement continuously effective for a period of at least ninety (90) days (or, in the case of an underwritten offering, such period as the underwriters may reasonably require) following the date on which such Required Registration Statement is declared effective (or such shorter period which shall terminate when all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Required Registration Statement have been sold pursuant thereto), including, if necessary, by filing with the SEC a post-effective amendment or a supplement to the Required Registration Statement or Required Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing or amending the Required Registration Statement or Required Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Required Registration Statement or Required Shelf Registration Statement or by the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities or blue sky Laws, or any

rules and regulations thereunder, and (B) to keep the Shelf Registration Statement related to the Takedown Prospectus Supplement in connection with a Takedown Request continuously effective pursuant to Section 5.3, and (ii) before filing such Required Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement, as the case may be, or any amendments or supplements thereto, or before using any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related to the offer and sale of Registrable Securities, provide to the Stockholder and any managing underwriter(s) and their respective counsel, copies of all documents proposed to be filed or furnished or used, including documents incorporated by reference (but excluding the portions of such documents that are or will be subject to a request for confidential treatment), and the Stockholder and the managing underwriter(s) and their respective counsel shall have the reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, and the Company will make such changes and additions thereto as may reasonably be requested by the Stockholder and the managing underwriter(s) and their respective counsel prior to such filing or use, unless the Company reasonably objects to such changes or additions; provided, however, that the Company shall not file any amendment or supplement or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to which the Stockholder or the underwriters or their respective counsel, shall reasonably object;

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith and the Takedown Prospectus Supplement, if applicable, and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related to the offer and sale of Registrable Securities (subject to the review and comment provisions set forth in Section 5.7(a) and Section 5.2 above) and perform such other actions (including those described in Section 5.3 with respect to an Automatic Registration Statement) as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement and such Takedown Prospectus Supplement for the applicable periods set forth herein;

(c) furnish to the Stockholder and each managing underwriter or other purchaser and their respective counsel such number of copies of such Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and the Takedown Prospectus Supplement, if applicable, (in each case including all exhibits other than those which are being incorporated into such Registration Statement by reference and that are publicly available), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related to the offer and sale of Registrable Securities and such other documents as the Stockholder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by the Stockholder;

(d) use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky Laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Stockholder or any managing underwriter or other purchaser may reasonably requests, and to continue such registration or qualification in effect in such jurisdiction and to maintain any such approval for as long as permissible pursuant to the laws of such jurisdiction and the regulations of the Governmental Authority, or for as long as any such seller requests or until all of such Registrable Securities are sold, whichever is shortest, and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the Stockholder to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by the Stockholder; provided that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not

The Stockholder agrees that upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in clauses (f), (q)(ii), (q)(iii), (q)(iv) or (q)(v) above, it shall forthwith discontinue its offer and disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement and the prospectus relating thereto and any Takedown Prospectus Supplement until its receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by clause (q)(ii), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the applicable prospectus and any Takedown Prospectus Supplement may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such prospectus or Takedown Prospectus Supplement; provided that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to supplement or amend the applicable Registration Statement and prospectus and any Takedown Prospectus Supplement as promptly as practicable and shall extend the time periods under clause (a) above with respect to the length of time that effectiveness of a Registration Statement must be maintained by the amount of time that the Stockholder is required to discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities.

Section 5.8. Registration Expenses. Subject to Section 6.1, all expenses incident to the Company’s performance of, or compliance with, its obligations under this Agreement including (a) all registration and filing fees, all fees and expenses of compliance with securities and blue sky laws (including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel for the underwriters in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 5.7), (b) all printing and copying expenses (including expenses of printing certificates for the Registrable Securities in a form eligible for deposit with the Depository Trust Company and of printing prospectuses as requested by any holder of Registrable Securities), (c) all messenger and delivery expenses, (d) all fees and expenses of the Company’s independent certified public accountants and counsel (including, with respect to “comfort” letters and opinions) and (e) all reasonable fees and disbursements of one single primary outside counsel and one outside local counsel for each jurisdiction that Registrable Securities shall be distributed for the holders thereof, which counsels shall be selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Stockholder, and in the case of the primary outside counsel shall be of national standing (collectively, the “Registration Expenses”) shall be borne by the Company. The Registration Expenses shall be borne by the Company regardless of whether or not any registration statement is filed or becomes effective.

The Company will pay its internal expenses (including all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties, the expense of any annual audit and the expense of any liability insurance), the expenses and fees for listing the securities to be registered on each securities exchange and included in each established over-the-counter market on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or traded and any expenses of the Company incurred in connection with any “road show”. The Stockholder shall pay its pro rata portion (based on the number of Registrable Securities registered) of all underwriting discounts and commissions relating to the sale of the Stockholder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to any registration.

Section 5.9. Requested Information. Not less than five (5) Business Days before the expected filing date of each Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement pursuant to this Agreement (or as soon as reasonably practical in connection with a Takedown Prospectus Supplement to be filed in connection with an unmarketed block trade), the Company shall notify each holder of Registrable Securities who has timely provided the requisite notice hereunder entitling such holder to register Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement of the information, documents and instruments from such holder that the Company or any underwriter or other purchaser reasonably requests in connection with such Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement, including a questionnaire, custody agreement, power of attorney, lockup letter and underwriting or other agreement, each in customary form reasonably acceptable to such holders (the “Requested Information”). If the Company has not received, on or before the second Business Day before the expected filing date of the Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement, the Requested Information from such holder, the Company may file the Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement without including Registrable Securities of such holder. The failure to so include in any Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement the Registrable Securities of a holder of Registrable Securities (with regard to that Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement) shall not result in any liability on the part of the Company to such holder.

Section 5.10. Holdback Agreements. The Stockholder agrees to enter into customary agreements restricting the sale or distribution of Equity Securities to the extent reasonably required in writing by the lead managing underwriter(s) with respect to an applicable underwritten primary offering on behalf of the Company relating to the registration of Equity Securities having an aggregate value of at least fifty million dollars ($50,000,000) during the period commencing on the date of the request (which shall be no earlier than fourteen (14) days prior to the expected “pricing” of such underwritten offering) and continuing for not more than sixty (60) days after the date of the “final” prospectus (or “final” prospectus supplement if the underwritten offering is made pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement), pursuant to which such underwritten offering shall be made, plus an extension period, as may be proposed by the lead managing underwriter(s), required to address any applicable FINRA regulations regarding the publishing of research, or such lesser period as is required by the lead managing underwriter(s). The Stockholder shall not be required to enter into a holdback agreement pursuant to this Section 5.10 (a) at any time when the aggregate number of Shares that are Beneficially Owned by the Stockholder and its Group Members, as a Group, is less than 5% of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, (b) unless the Company and the directors and executive officers of the Company are subject to comparable restrictions, (c) unless the Stockholder has had the opportunity to review and provide reasonable comments on any such

holdback agreement and (d) unless the Stockholder was offered an opportunity to participate in the offering pursuant to Section 5.5. The postponement rights in clause (b) of the first sentence in Section 5.2 and the holdback obligation in this Section 5.10 shall not be applicable to the Stockholder for more than a total of one hundred fifty (150) days during any period of twelve (12) consecutive months.

Section 5.11. Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to the Stockholder the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public;

(b) file with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act; and

(c) so long as the Stockholder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to the Stockholder promptly upon request (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 of the Securities Act and of the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company filed with the SEC and (iii) such other reports and documents as the Stockholder may reasonably request in connection with availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any such securities without registration, in each case to the extent not readily publicly available.

Section 5.12. Company Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Stockholder, its Affiliates and each of its and their respective directors, officers, partners, members, employees, advisors, representatives and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Stockholder (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses whatsoever (including reasonable, documented expenses of investigation and reasonable, documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) caused by, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto (including a Takedown Prospectus Supplement)covering the resale of any Registrable Securities by or on behalf of the Stockholder or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or any violation of the Securities Act or state securities laws or rules thereunder by the Company relating to any action or inaction by the Company in connection with such registration, except insofar as such untrue statement or omission is based on information contained in any affidavit or statement furnished in writing by the Stockholder for use in connection with such Registration Statement, which shall be limited to the Stockholder’s name, address and number of shares of Registrable Securities owned by the Stockholder. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of

any investigation made by or on behalf of the Stockholder or any indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the Stockholder.

Section 5.13. Stockholder Indemnification. The Stockholder and any Permitted Transferees jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Company, its Affiliates, its and their respective directors, officers, partners, members and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable, documented expenses of investigation and reasonable, documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) caused by, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto (including Takedown Prospectus Supplement) covering the resale of any Registrable Securities by or on behalf of the Stockholder or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit furnished in writing by the Stockholder for use in connection with such Registration Statement, which shall be limited to the Stockholder’s name, address and number of shares of Registrable Securities owned by the Stockholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Stockholder shall not be liable for any amounts in excess of the net proceeds received by the Stockholder from sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement to which the claims relate. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Stockholder may otherwise have. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the Company.

Section 5.14. Resolution of Claims. Any Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article 5 shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying Party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification; provided that the failure so to notify the indemnifying Party shall not relieve the indemnifying Party of any liability that it may have to the indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that the indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced or otherwise forfeits substantive rights or defenses by reason of such failure. If notice of commencement of any such action is given to the indemnifying Party as above provided, the indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying Party similarly notified, to assume the defense of such action at its own expense, with counsel chosen by it and reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be paid by the indemnified party unless (a) the indemnifying Party agrees to pay the same, (b) the indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of such action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party within a reasonable amount of time after receipt of notice of such claim from the Indemnified Parry or (c) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying Party and the indemnified party and such parties have been advised by such counsel that either (i) representation of such indemnified party and the indemnifying Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct or (ii) it is reasonably foreseeable that there will be one or more material legal defenses available to the indemnified party which are different from or

additional to those available to the indemnifying Party. In any of such cases, the indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense of such action with its own counsel, the reasonable, documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the indemnifying Party, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties. No indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement entered into without its written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). No indemnifying Party shall, without the consent of such indemnified party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which such indemnified party is a party and indemnity has been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability for claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include an omission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

Section 5.15. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 5.12 or Section 5.13 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable Law contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying Party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by a court of Law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying Party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any loss, claim, damage or liability referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 5.15, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The Parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.15 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 5.15. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Section 5.16. Company Facilitation of Sale. If any Registrable Securities are certificated and bear any restrictive legend, or are held in non-certificated book-entry form and are subject to any stop transfer or similar instruction or restriction, the Company shall upon the request of the holder of such Registrable Securities, as applicable, promptly cause such legends to be removed and new certificates without any restrictive legends to be issued or cause such stop transfer or similar instructions or restrictions to be promptly terminated and removed, including by delivering customary representation letters and instruction letters to the transfer agent reasonably acceptable

to the transfer agent, if (a) such Registrable Securities have been resold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement or (b) the holder of such Registrable Securities provides the transfer agent with reasonable assurance that such Registrable Securities can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 or otherwise without registration and without any restriction whatsoever under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, including an opinion of outside legal counsel (the reasonable costs and expenses of which shall be reimbursed by the Company), reasonably acceptable to the transfer agent, to such effect.

Section 5.17. Transfers. To the extent that any Registrable Securities are Transferred, the obligations of the Company shall not be expanded in any respect and, the registration rights provided for in this Article 5, to the extent assigned, shall be shared by all holders of Registrable Securities and all such persons shall be jointly and severally liable for any obligations.

Section 5.18. WKSI Status. The Company is not an ineligible issuer and is a WKSI, in each case as defined under the Securities Act, and is currently eligible to file and use an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement.

In the event that any one or more of the terms or provisions of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement, or the application of such term or provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, and the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to substitute one or more valid, legal and enforceable terms or provisions into this Agreement which, insofar as practicable, implement the purposes and intent of the Parties. Any term or provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part, degree or within certain jurisdictions shall remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable to the extent consistent with the intent of the Parties as reflected by this

Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Party waives any term or provision of Law which renders any term or provision of this Agreement to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect.

Section 6.11. Business Days. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted in this Agreement is not a Business Day (including where such period of time is measured in calendar days), then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 6.12. Governing Law and Venue: Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE IN AND IN ALL RESPECTS SHALL BE INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND GOVERNED BY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SUBSTANTIVE AND PROCEDURAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS RULES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW. The Parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, to the extent the court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the federal courts of the United States of America for the District of Delaware with respect to all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement, and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in such courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the Parties agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined exclusively in such Court of Chancery or federal court. The Parties agree that a final judgment in any such any action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. The Parties consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such Parties solely for such purpose and over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 6.3 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service.

(b) EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER. EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER. EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS

AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS IN THIS SECTION 6.12(b).

Section 6.13. Enforcement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof in any court referred to in Section 6.12, without proof of actual damages (and each Party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. The Parties further agree not to assert that a Exhibit remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for such breach.

Section 6.14. No Other Registration Rights. The Company shall not enter into any Contract or other agreement or obligation with respect to its Equity Securities that adversely affects the priorities of the Stockholder or is otherwise inconsistent or in contravention of the Stockholder’s rights hereunder, including its registration rights under Article 5 and the “cut-back” priorities in Section 5.5.

The Swing Line Lender may at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion, direct that the Swing Loans owing to it be refunded by delivering a notice to such effect to the Revolver Administrative Agent, specifying the aggregate principal amount thereof (a “Notice of Swing Loan Refunding”). Promptly upon receipt of a Notice of Swing Loan Refunding, the Revolver Administrative Agent shall give notice of the contents thereof to the Revolving Lenders with Revolving Commitments and, unless an Event of Default specified in Section 8.01(h) in respect of the Borrower has occurred, the Borrower.

Once any such Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions has been issued, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such LC Issuer to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than 5 Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date; provided, however, that such LC Issuer shall not permit any such renewal if (i) such LC Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof, or (ii) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is two Business Days before the date that such LC Issuer is permitted to send a notice of non-renewal from the Revolver Administrative Agent, any Revolving Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied.

(d) Applicability of ISP98. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable LC Issuer and the applicable LC Obligor, when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) shall apply to each Letter of Credit.

(e) Notice of LC Issuance. Each LC Issuer shall, on the date of each LC Issuance by it, give the Revolver Administrative Agent, each applicable Revolving Lender and the Borrower written notice of such LC Issuance, accompanied by a copy to the Revolver Administrative Agent of the Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit issued by it. Each LC Issuer shall provide to the Revolver Administrative Agent a quarterly (or monthly if requested by any applicable Revolving Lender) summary describing each Letter of Credit issued by such LC Issuer and then outstanding and an identification for the relevant period of the daily aggregate LC Outstandings represented by Letters of Credit issued by such LC Issuer.

(f) Reimbursement Obligations.

(i) The Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse (or cause any LC Obligor for whose account a Letter of Credit was issued to reimburse) each LC Issuer, by making payment directly to such LC Issuer in immediately available funds at the payment office of such LC Issuer, for any Unreimbursed Drawing with respect to any Letter of Credit immediately after, and in any event, if notice is given to the Borrower by 11:00 A.M., on the date on which, or if notice is given after 11:00 A.M., on the next succeeding Business Day, such LC Issuer notifies the Borrower (or any such other LC Obligor for whose account such Letter of Credit was issued) of such payment or disbursement (which notice to the Borrower (or such other LC Obligor) shall be delivered reasonably promptly after any such payment or disbursement), such payment to be made in Dollars or in the applicable Designated Foreign Currency in which such Letter of Credit is denominated, with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such LC Issuer. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such date, the Borrower will be deemed to have given a Notice of Borrowing for Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans in an aggregate Dollar Equivalent principal amount sufficient to reimburse such Unreimbursed Drawing (and the Revolver Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Revolving Lenders of such deemed Notice of Borrowing), the Revolving Lenders shall, unless they are legally prohibited from doing so, make the Revolving Loans contemplated by such deemed Notice of Borrowing (which Revolving Loans shall be considered made under Section 2.02), and the proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be disbursed directly to the applicable LC Issuer to the extent necessary to effect such reimbursement and repayment of the Unreimbursed Drawing, with any excess proceeds to be made available to the Borrower in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. To the extent such Unreimbursed Drawing is not reimbursed prior to 1:00 P.M. (local time at the payment office of the applicable LC Issuer) on the date required, interest on such Unreimbursed Drawing shall accrue, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but not including the date such LC Issuer is reimbursed therefor at a rate per annum that shall be the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.09(a)(i) that are Base Rate Loans or, if not reimbursed on the date of such payment or disbursement because the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure exceeds the Revolving Commitment, then at the Default Rate, any such interest also to be payable on demand.

-47-

(ii) Obligations Absolute. Each LC Obligor’s obligation under this Section to reimburse each LC Issuer with respect to Unreimbursed Drawings (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that such LC Obligor may have or have had against such LC Issuer, the Revolver Administrative Agent or any Lender, including, without limitation, any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing; provided, however, that no LC Obligor shall be obligated to reimburse an LC Issuer for any wrongful payment made by such LC Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such LC Issuer.

(g) LC Participations.

(i) Immediately upon each LC Issuance, the LC Issuer of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Lender with a Revolving Commitment, and each such Lender (each an “LC Participant”) shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such LC Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (an “LC Participation”), to the extent of such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time of issuance, in such Letter of Credit, each substitute Letter of Credit, each drawing made thereunder, the obligations of any LC Obligor under this Agreement with respect thereto (although LC Fees relating thereto shall be payable directly to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Lenders as provided in Section 2.11 and the LC Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any fees of the nature contemplated by Section 2.11 (d) or (e)), the obligations of any LC Obligor under any LC Documents pertaining thereto, and any security for, or guaranty pertaining to, any of the foregoing.

(ii) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, an LC Issuer shall not have any obligation relative to the LC Participants other than to determine that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an LC Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for such LC Issuer any resulting liability.

(iii) If an LC Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the applicable LC Obligor shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.05(f), such LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Revolver Administrative Agent, and the Revolver Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each LC Participant of such failure, and each LC Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer, the amount of such LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of such payment in Dollars or in the applicable Designated Foreign Currency in which such Letter of Credit is denominated and in same-day funds; provided, however, that no LC Participant shall be obligated to pay to the Revolver Administrative Agent its Revolving Facility Percentage of such unreimbursed amount for any wrongful payment made by such LC Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such LC Issuer. If the Revolver Administrative Agent so notifies any LC Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on any Business Day, such LC Participant shall make available to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer such LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same-day funds. If and to the extent such LC Participant shall not have so made its Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer, such LC Participant agrees to pay to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer, forthwith on demand, such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any LC Participant to make available to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer its Revolving Facility Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other LC Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer its Revolving Facility Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no LC Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other LC Participant to make available to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer such other LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of any such payment.

-48-

(iv) Whenever an LC Issuer receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which the Revolver Administrative Agent has received for the account of such LC Issuer any payments from the LC Participants pursuant to subpart (iii) above, such LC Issuer shall pay to the Revolver Administrative Agent and the Revolver Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each LC Participant that has paid its Revolving Facility Percentage thereof, in same-day funds, an amount equal to such LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the principal amount thereof and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective LC Participations, as and to the extent so received.

(v) The obligations of the LC Participants to make payments to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of each LC Issuer with respect to Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim, set-off or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

(A) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(B) the existence of any claim, set-off defense or other right that any LC Obligor may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Revolver Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer, any Lender, or other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the applicable LC Obligor and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit), other than any claim that the applicable LC Obligor may have against any applicable LC Issuer for gross negligence or willful misconduct of such LC Issuer in making payment under any applicable Letter of Credit;

(C) any draft, certificate or other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(D) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; or

(E) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default.

(vi) To the extent any LC Issuer is not indemnified by the Borrower or any LC Obligor, the LC Participants will reimburse and indemnify such LC Issuer, in proportion to their respective Revolving Facility Percentages, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature that may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by such LC Issuer in performing its respective duties in any way related to or arising out of LC Issuances by it; provided, however, that no LC Participants shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such LC Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 2.06 Notice of Borrowing.

(a) Time of Notice. Each Borrowing of a Loan (other than a Continuation or Conversion) shall be made upon notice in the form provided for below which shall be provided by the Borrower to the applicable Administrative Agent at its Notice Office not later than (i) in the case of each Borrowing of a Fixed Rate Loan, 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) at least three Business Days prior to the date of such Borrowing (and in the case of a Borrowing on the Closing Date, at least two Business Days), (ii) in the case of each Borrowing of a Base Rate Loan, prior to 1:00 P.M.

(b) Notice of Borrowing. Each request for a Borrowing (other than a Continuation or Conversion) shall be made by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower by delivering written notice of such request substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1 (each such notice, a “Notice of Borrowing”) or by telephone (to be confirmed immediately

Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder, the applicable Administrative Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by such Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower entitled to give telephonic notices under this Agreement on behalf of the Borrower. In each such case, such Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.07 Funding Obligations; Disbursement of Funds.

(a) Several Nature of Funding Obligations. The Commitments of each Lender hereunder and the obligation of each Lender to make Loans, acquire and fund Swing Loan Participations, and LC Participations, as the case may be, are several and not joint obligations. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans or fund any participation hereunder and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it and fund its participations required to be funded by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill any of its Commitments hereunder. Nothing herein and no subsequent termination of a Class of Commitments pursuant to Section 2.12 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender in such Class from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder and in existence from time to time or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender in such Class as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(b) Borrowings Pro Rata. Except with respect to the making of Swing Loans by the Swing Line Lender, all Revolving Loans hereunder shall be made and LC Participations acquired by each Lender on a pro rata basis based upon each Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such Revolving Borrowing or Letter of Credit in effect on the date the applicable Revolving Borrowing is to be made or the Letter of Credit is to be issued.

(c) Notice to Lenders. The applicable Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender in a Class, as applicable, written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing, or Conversion or Continuation thereof, and LC Issuance, and of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof or participation therein and of the other matters covered by the Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Continuation or Conversion, or LC Request, as the case may be, relating thereto.

(d) Funding of Loans.

(i) Loans Generally. No later than 4:00 P.M. (local time at the applicable Payment Office) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Lender in a Class will make available its amount, if any, of each Borrowing of such Class requested to be made on such date to the applicable Administrative Agent at the applicable Payment Office in Dollars or the applicable Designated Foreign Currency and in immediately available funds and such Administrative Agent promptly will make available to the Borrower by depositing to its account at the applicable Payment Office (or such other account as the Borrower shall specify) the aggregate of the amounts so made available in the type of funds received. For the avoidance of doubt, proceeds of any Borrowing hereunder in a Designated Foreign Currency shall be funded only to the Borrower as provided immediately above.

-50-

(ii) Swing Loans. No later than 4:00 P.M. (local time at the applicable Payment Office) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, the Swing Line Lender will make available to the Borrower by depositing to its account at the applicable Payment Office (or such other account as the Borrower shall specify) the aggregate of Swing Loans requested in such Notice of Borrowing.

(e) Advance Funding. Unless the applicable Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender of a Class prior to the date of a Borrowing of such Class that such Lender does not intend to make available to such Administrative Agent its portion of the Class of Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on such date, such Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to such Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing, and such Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the applicable Administrative Agent by such Lender and such Administrative Agent has made the same available to the Borrower, such Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the such Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, such Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to such Administrative Agent. The applicable Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by such Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by such Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to (i) if paid by such Lender, the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate or (ii) if paid by the Borrower, the then applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.09, for the respective Class of Loans (but without any requirement to pay any amounts in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.02).

Section 2.08 Evidence of Obligations.

(a) Loan Accounts of Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c) Effect of Loan Accounts, etc. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.08(b) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations recorded therein; provided, that the failure of any Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error (other than manifest error) therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Credit Party to repay or prepay the Loans or the other Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Notes. Upon request of any Lender or the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, (i) a Revolving Facility Note with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith to evidence the Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Revolving Loans made to it by such Lender, (ii) a Swing Line Note with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith to evidence the Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Swing Loans made to it by the Swing Line Lender and (iii) a Term Loan Note with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith to evidence the Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, Term Loans made to it by such Lender; provided, however, that the decision of any Lender or the Swing Line Lender to not request a Note shall in no way detract from the Borrower’s obligation to repay the Loans and other amounts owing by the Borrower to such Lender or the Swing Line Lender.

(e) Accrual and Payment of Interest. Interest on each Borrowing shall accrue from and including the date of such Borrowing to but excluding the date of any prepayment or repayment thereof and shall be payable by the Borrower as follows: (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan, quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, (ii) in respect of each Fixed Rate Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three months, on the dates that are successively three months after the commencement of such Interest Period, (iii) in respect of any Swing Loan, on the Swing Loan Maturity Date applicable thereto, (iv) in respect of Revolving Loans, the Revolving Facility Termination Date, (v) in respect of Term Loans, the Term Loan Maturity Date, (vi) in respect of all other Loans, on (A) the date of any repayment or prepayment (other than a repayment or prepayment of a Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate Loan prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date) on the amount repaid or prepaid and (B) the date of any Conversion on the amount Converted, (vii) in respect of any interest not paid when due pursuant to any of the foregoing subparts, on demand, and (viii) in respect of any interest payable pursuant to Section 2.09(c), as set forth in Section 2.09(c).

(c) Partial Reduction of Total Revolving Commitment. Upon at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing) to the Revolver Administrative Agent at its Notice Office (which notice the Revolver Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), the Borrower shall have the right to partially and permanently reduce the Unused Total Revolving Commitment; provided, however, that (i) any such reduction shall apply to proportionately, except as set forth in Sections 2.18 (based on each Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage) and permanently reduce the Revolving Commitment of each Lender, (ii) such reduction shall apply to proportionately, except as set forth in Sections 2.18, and permanently reduce the LC Commitment Amount, but only to the extent that the Unused Commitment would be reduced below any such limits, (iii) no such reduction shall be permitted if the Borrower would be required to make a mandatory prepayment of Loans or cash collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.13, and (iv) any partial reduction shall be in the amount of at least $5,000,000 (or, if greater, in integral multiples of $1,000,000).

(d) Maturity. The entire principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans and all accrued but unpaid interest and other amounts payable with respect to such Revolving Loans shall be repaid in full on the Revolving Facility Termination Date. The entire principal amount of all outstanding Term Loans and all accrued but unpaid interest and other amounts payable with respect to such Term Loans shall be repaid on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

Section 2.13 Voluntary, Scheduled and Mandatory Prepayments of Loans.

(a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right to prepay from time to time any of the Loans owing by it, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (except as specified in subpart (c) below). The Borrower shall give the applicable Administrative Agent at the applicable Notice Office written or telephonic notice (in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing if so requested by the applicable Administrative Agent) of its intent to prepay the Loans (provided that such notice may state that it is conditioned on the effectiveness of other credit facilities or other financing or other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Revolver Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied), the amount of such prepayment and (in the case of Fixed Rate Loans) the specific Class and Borrowing(s) pursuant to which the prepayment is to be made, which notice shall be received by the applicable Administrative Agent by (y) 12:00 noon (local time at the applicable Notice Office) three Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of any prepayment of Fixed Rate Loans, or (z) 12:00 noon (local time at the applicable Notice Office) on the date of such prepayment, in the case of any prepayment of Base Rate Loans, and which notice shall promptly be transmitted by the applicable Administrative Agent to each of the affected Lenders, provided that:

(i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least (A) in the case of any prepayment of a Fixed Rate Loan, $5,000,000 (or, if less, the full amount of such Borrowing) or the Dollar Equivalent thereof, or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 or the Dollar Equivalent thereof in excess thereof, (B) in the case of any prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, $5,000,000 (or, if less, the full amount of such Borrowing) or the Dollar Equivalent thereof, or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 or the Dollar Equivalent thereof in excess thereof, and (C) in the case of any prepayment of a Swing Loan, in the full amount thereof; and

(ii) no partial prepayment of any Revolving Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall reduce the aggregate principal amount of such Loans outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto.

(b) Mandatory Payments.

(i) No later than three (3) Business Days following the date of receipt by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of (x) any Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale, to the extent that the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset Sale exceeds $25,000,000 at any time after the Closing Date, or (y) any Net Cash Proceeds from any Event of Loss, to the extent that the aggregate amount of the Net Cash Proceeds from such Event of Loss exceeds $5,000,000, the Borrower shall prepay Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of all such Net Cash Proceeds (limited, in the case of the Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales, to amounts in excess of $25,000,000, and in the case of Net Cash Proceeds from any Event of Loss, to amounts in excess of $5,000,000); provided, that, the Borrower shall not be required to prepay the Obligations with respect to (i) Net Cash Proceeds from Asset Sales permitted under Section 7.02(b)(i)-(v), (ii) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Net Cash Proceeds from an Event of Loss or Asset Sales that are reinvested in assets then used or usable in the business of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries within 365 days following receipt thereof or committed to be reinvested prior to the expiration of such 365 day period (as certified to the Term Loan Administrative Agent by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower on or before the end of such applicable 365 day period) and actually reinvested within 540 days following receipt thereof, and (iii) to the extent set forth in subsection (iv) of this clause (b). Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with subsection (vi) of this clause (b).

(ii) No later than three (3) Business Days following the date of receipt by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Net Cash Proceeds from any issuance of Indebtedness by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, the Borrower shall prepay Term Loans in an amount equal to all such Net Cash Proceeds; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to prepay Term Loans with respect to Net Cash Proceeds of Indebtedness permitted under Section 7.04 (other than Permitted Unsecured Refinancing Debt, Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt, Permitted Junior Refinancing Debt and any other Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness). Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with subsection (vi) of this clause (b).

-55-

(iii) After the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower (commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018), within five (5) Business Days after the earlier to occur of (x) the delivery of the financial statements and related Compliance Certificate for such fiscal year and (y) the date on which the financial statements and related Compliance Certificate for such fiscal year are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01, the Borrower shall prepay Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to (A) the Applicable ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow (calculated after giving pro forma effect to any prepayments or repurchases of Loans pursuant to the immediately following clause (B)), if any, for such fiscal year, minus (B) the sum of (1) all voluntary prepayments and/or repurchases of Term Loans and/or Revolving Loans (in the case of Revolving Loans, solely to the extent accompanied by permanent reductions in the Revolving Commitments) plus (2) all voluntary prepayments, repurchases or redemptions of any Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt made during such fiscal year or after year-end and prior to the date such payment is due (limited, in the case of repurchases at or below par pursuant to Section 2.13(e) or 11.06(g), to the amount of cash used to make such purchases), except, in each case, to the extent financed with the proceeds of long-term Indebtedness; provided that the Borrower shall only be required to make a prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(iii) to the extent that such amount is in excess of $5,000,000. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with subsection (vi) of this clause (b).

(iv) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.13 to the contrary, (A) to the extent that any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale by, or an Event of Loss of, a Foreign Subsidiary (“Foreign Disposition”) or Excess Cash Flow attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.13 but may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Borrower hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than two Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13 and (B) to the extent that the Borrower has reasonably determined that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition or Foreign Subsidiary Excess Cash Flow would have material adverse tax cost consequences with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary. In addition, all mandatory prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.13(b) are subject to permissibility under (A) local law (including financial assistance, corporate benefit, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group and fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant Subsidiaries) and (B) organizational document and other restrictions (including as a result of minority ownership). The non-application of any mandatory prepayment as a result of this Section 2.13(b)(iv) will not constitute a Default or Event of Default and such amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries.

(v) The Revolving Loans shall be subject to mandatory repayment or prepayment (in the case of any partial prepayment conforming to the requirements as to the amounts of partial prepayments set forth in Section 2.13(a) above), and the LC Outstandings shall be subject to cash collateralization requirements, in accordance with the following provisions:

(A) If on any date (after giving effect to any other payments on such date) (A) the Revolving Facility Exposure of any Lender exceeds such Lender’s Revolving Commitment (whether due to a change in the Dollar Equivalent such Lender’s Revolving Facility Exposure or otherwise), (B) the sum of (1) the Aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure and (2) the outstanding principal amount of Swing Loans, exceeds the Total Revolving Commitment (in the case of clauses (1) or (3), whether due to a change in the Dollar Equivalent of the Aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure or otherwise), or (C) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans outstanding exceeds the Swing Line Commitment, then, in the case of each of the foregoing, the Borrower shall, on such day, prepay on such date the principal amount of the Revolving Loans and, after the Revolving Loans have been paid in full, Unreimbursed Drawings, in an aggregate amount at least equal to such excess.

-56-

(B) If on any date the LC Outstandings exceed the LC Commitment Amount, then the applicable LC Obligor or the Borrower shall, on such day, pay to the Revolver Administrative Agent an amount in cash equal to such excess and the Revolver Administrative Agent shall hold such payment as security for the reimbursement obligations of the applicable LC Obligors hereunder in respect of Letters of Credit pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Revolver Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer and the Borrower (which shall permit certain investments in Cash Equivalents reasonably satisfactory to the Revolver Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer and the Borrower until the proceeds are applied to any Unreimbursed Drawing or to any other Obligations in accordance with any such cash collateral agreement and which shall provide for regular remittance to the Borrower of any interest accrued on such cash collateral amount).

(vi) Application of Payments.

(A) With respect to each repayment or prepayment of Revolving Loans made or required by Section 2.13(b)(v), the Borrower shall designate the Types of Revolving Loans that are to be repaid or prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which such repayment or prepayment is to be made; provided, however, that (i) the Borrower shall first so designate all Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and Fixed Rate Loans with Interest Periods ending on the date of repayment or prepayment prior to designating any other Fixed Rate Loans for repayment or prepayment, and (ii) if the outstanding principal amount of Fixed Rate Loans made pursuant to a Revolving Borrowing is reduced below the applicable Minimum Borrowing Amount as a result of any such repayment or prepayment, then all the Revolving Loans outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing shall, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, be Converted into Base Rate Loans and, in the case of Foreign Currency Loans, be repaid in full. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Revolver Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its sole discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Article III.

(B) Any prepayments made by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.13(b) shall be applied ratably to each outstanding Class of Term Loans to reduce the remaining scheduled principal installments of the Term Loans in such order as the Borrower shall direct (and absent such direction in direct order of maturity); provided, that any prepayment of Term Loans with the Net Cash Proceeds of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be applied solely to each applicable Class (or Classes) of Loans that are being refinanced. If (x) the amount of any mandatory prepayment which would otherwise be required as provided above exceeds the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans then outstanding and (y) a Default or Event of Default then exists, such excess shall be applied to permanently reduce the Revolving Commitments.

(C) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.13, if at the time that any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.13(b)(i) or (iii) would be required, the Borrower (or any Restricted Subsidiary) is required to offer to repurchase any Indebtedness permitted hereunder that is secured on a pari passu basis with the Obligations pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness with the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset Sale or Event of Loss or with Excess Cash Flow, as applicable (such Indebtedness, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then the Borrower (or any Restricted Subsidiary) may apply such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time; provided, that the portion of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow shall be allocated to the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans and to the repurchase or prepayment of Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.13(b) shall be reduced accordingly; provided, further, that to the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such indebtedness repurchased or prepaid, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within

-57-

ten (10) Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

(i) Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be accompanied by any amounts payable in respect thereof under Article III.

(ii) In the event that, on or prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Borrower (A) makes any prepayment of Initial Term Loans in connection with any Repricing Event (as defined below) or (B) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Event, the Borrower shall pay to the Term Loan Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each applicable Term Loan Lender, a fee in an amount equal to, (x) in the case of clause (A), a prepayment premium of 1.0% of the amount of the Initial Term Loans being prepaid and (y) in the case of clause (B), a payment equal to 1.0% of the aggregate amount of the Initial Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment. Such fees shall be due and payable on the date of the effectiveness of such Repricing Event. For the purpose of this Section 2.13(c)(ii), “Repricing Event” means, other than in connection with any transaction involving a Change of Control or a Transformative Acquisition, (x) any prepayment or repayment of the Initial Term Loans with the proceeds of, or any conversion of the Initial Term Loans into, any new or replacement syndicated bank credit facility bearing interest with an “effective yield” (taking into account, for example, upfront fees, interest rate spreads, interest rate benchmark floors and original issue discount, but excluding the effect of any arrangement, structuring, syndication or other fees payable in connection therewith that are not shared with all lenders or holders of such new or replacement syndicated bank credit facility) less than the “effective yield” applicable to the Initial Term Loans (as such comparative yields are reasonably determined by the Term Loan Administrative Agent) and (y) any amendment to the pricing terms of the Initial Term Loans which reduces the “effective yield” applicable to the Initial Term Loans. In the case of any amendment on or prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date resulting in a Repricing Event, each Term Loan Lender immediately prior to the effectiveness of such amendment (and not any Person who replaces a Term Loan Lender pursuant to Section 3.05(b)) shall receive its pro rata portion (as determined immediately prior to any such replacement) of the prepayment premium described herein.

(d) The Borrower shall notify the Term Loan Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to Section 2.13(b) at least three Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Term Loan Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender holding Term Loans of the contents of such prepayment notice and of such Lender’s pro rata share of the prepayment. Each Term Loan Lender may reject all (but not less than all) of its pro rata share of any mandatory prepayment (other than any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.13(b)(ii)) of Term Loans by providing written notice (a “Rejection Notice”) to the Term Loan Administrative Agent no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) one Business Day after the date of such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Term Loan Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment. If a Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Term Loan Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory prepayment of Term Loans. Any prepayment amount declined by a Term Loan Lender may be retained by the Borrower (such amount, the “Retained Declined Proceeds”) and may be either added to the Available Amount or may be applied in prepayment of amounts owed to non-declining Term Loan Lenders, in the Borrower’s discretion.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (in such case, the foregoing being herein referred to as the “Auction Parties” and each, an “Auction Party”) may repurchase outstanding Term Loans on the following basis:

(i) Such Auction Party may repurchase all or any portion of any Class of Term Loan pursuant to a Dutch Auction (or such other modified Dutch Auction conducted pursuant to similar procedures as the Borrower and the Term Loan Administrative Agent may otherwise agree); provided that

-58-

no proceeds of Revolving Loans shall be used by any Auction Party to repurchase Term Loans pursuant to such Auction;

(ii) Following repurchase by any Auction Party pursuant to this Section 2.13(e), the Term Loans so repurchased shall, without further action by any Person, be deemed cancelled for all purposes and no longer outstanding (and may not be resold by any Auction Party), for all purposes of this Agreement and the principal amount of the Loans so repurchased shall be applied on a pro rata basis to reduce the scheduled remaining installments of principal on such Class of Term Loans. In connection with any Term Loans repurchased and cancelled pursuant to this Section 2.13(e), the Term Loan Administrative Agent is authorized to make appropriate entries in the Register to reflect any such cancellation. Any payment made by any Auction Party in connection with a repurchase permitted by this Section 2.13(e) shall not be subject to any of the pro rata payment or sharing requirements of this Agreement; and

(iii) Each Lender that sells its Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13(e) acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Auction Parties may come into possession of additional information regarding the Loans or the Credit Parties at any time after a repurchase has been consummated pursuant to an Auction hereunder that was not known to such Lender or the Auction Parties at the time such repurchase was consummated and that, when taken together with information that was known to the Auction Parties at the time such repurchase was consummated, may be information that would have been material to such Lender’s decision to enter into an assignment of such Term Loans hereunder (“Excluded Information”), (ii) such Lender will independently make its own analysis and determination to enter into an assignment of its Loans and to consummate the transactions contemplated by an Auction notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of Excluded Information and (iii) none of the Auction Parties or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person shall have any liability to such Lender with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information. Each Lender that tenders Loans pursuant to an Auction agrees to the foregoing provisions of this clause (iii). The Term Loan Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the Auctions and the other transactions contemplated by this Section 2.13(e) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (it being understood and acknowledged that purchases of the Loans by an Auction Party contemplated by this Section 2.13(e) shall not constitute Investments by such Auction Party) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any Auction or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.13(e).

Section 2.14 Method and Place of Payment.

(a) Generally. All payments made by the Borrower hereunder (including any payments made with respect to the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations under Article X) under any Note or any other Loan Document, shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense.

(b) Application of Payments. Except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and subject to Section 8.03, (i) all payments and prepayments of Revolving Loans and Unreimbursed Drawings with respect to Letters of Credit shall be applied by the Revolver Administrative Agent on a pro rata basis based upon each Revolving Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such payment or prepayment, (ii) all payments or prepayments of Swing Loans shall be applied by the Revolver Administrative Agent to pay or prepay such Swing Loans and (iii) all payments and prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied by the Revolver Administrative Agent on a pro rata basis based upon each Term Loan Lender’s Term Loan Facility Percentage of the amount of such payment or prepayment.

(c) Payment of Obligations. Except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, all payments under this Agreement with respect to any of the Obligations shall be made to the applicable Administrative Agent on the date when due and shall be made at the applicable Payment Office in immediately available funds and, except as set forth in the next sentence, shall be made in Dollars. With respect to any Foreign Currency Loan, all payments (including prepayments) to any Revolving Lender of the principal of or interest on such Foreign Currency Loan shall be made in the same Designated Foreign Currency as the original Revolving Loan and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued in a Designated Foreign Currency, all Unreimbursed Drawings with respect to each such Letter of Credit shall be made in the same Designated Foreign Currency in which each such Letter of Credit was issued.

-59-

(d) Timing of Payments. Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 2:00 P.M. (local time at the applicable Payment Office) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension.

(e) Distribution to Lenders. Upon the applicable Administrative Agent’s receipt of payments hereunder on any Class of Loan or Borrowing, the applicable Administrative Agent shall immediately distribute to each Lender in such Class or the applicable LC Issuer, as the case may be, its ratable share, if any, of the amount of principal, interest, and Fees received by it for the account of such Lender. Payments received by the applicable Administrative Agent on any Class of Loan or Borrowing in Dollars shall be delivered to the Lenders in such Class or the applicable LC Issuer, as the case may be, in Dollars in immediately available funds. Payments received by the Revolver Administrative Agent in any Designated Foreign Currency shall be delivered to the Revolving Lenders or the applicable LC Issuer, as the case may be, in such Designated Foreign Currency in same-day funds; provided, however, that if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the applicable Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, Unreimbursed Drawings, interest and Fees then due hereunder then, except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and subject to Section 8.03, such funds shall be applied, first, towards payment of interest and Fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and Fees then due to such parties, and second, towards payment of principal and Unreimbursed Drawings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and Unreimbursed Drawings then due to such parties.

Section 2.15 Guaranty by the Borrower.

(a) Borrower Guaranteed Obligations. The Borrower hereby unconditionally guarantees, for the benefit of the Benefited Creditors, all of the following (collectively, the “Borrower Guaranteed Obligations”): all amounts, indemnities and reimbursement obligations, direct or indirect, contingent or absolute, of every type or description, and at any time existing owing by any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower in respect of any Bank Product Obligations and under any Designated Hedge Agreement (excluding any Excluded Swap Obligation) or any other document or agreement executed and delivered in connection therewith to any Designated Hedge Creditor, in all cases whether now existing or hereafter incurred or arising, including any such interest or other amounts incurred or arising during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership or similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding or subject to an automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code). Upon failure by any Credit Party to pay punctually any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations, the Borrower shall forthwith on demand by each Administrative Agent pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the currency and otherwise in the manner specified in this Agreement or any other applicable agreement or instrument.

(b) Additional Undertaking. As a separate, additional and continuing obligation, the Borrower unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes and agrees, for the benefit of the Benefited Creditors that, should any Borrower Guaranteed Obligations not be recoverable from the Borrower under Section 2.15(a) for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, by reason of any provision of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument executed in connection therewith being or becoming void, unenforceable, or otherwise invalid under any applicable law) then, notwithstanding any notice or knowledge thereof by any Lender, either Administrative Agent, any of their respective Affiliates, or any other person, at any time, the Borrower as sole, original and independent obligor, upon demand by either Administrative Agent, will make payment to such Administrative Agent, for the account of the Benefited Creditors, of all such obligations not so recoverable by way of full indemnity, in such currency and otherwise in such manner as is provided in the Loan Documents or any other applicable agreement or instrument.

(c) Guaranty Unconditional. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.15 shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by the occurrence, one or more times, of any of the following:

(i) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect to the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations under any agreement or instrument, by operation of law or otherwise;

-60-

(ii) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement, any Note, any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Borrower Guaranteed Obligation;

(iii) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations under any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Borrower Guaranteed Obligations;

(iv) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Credit Party or other Restricted Subsidiary or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Credit Party or other Restricted Subsidiary or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Credit Party or other Restricted Subsidiary contained in any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations;

(v) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Borrower may have at any time against any other Credit Party, any Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions;

(vi) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any other Credit Party for any reason of any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any Credit Party of any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations; or

(vii) any other act or omission of any kind by any other Credit Party, any Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.15, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower’s obligations under this Section other than the irrevocable payment in full of all Borrower Guaranteed Obligations.

(d) Borrower Obligations to Remain in Effect; Restoration. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.15 shall remain in full force and effect until the Commitments shall have terminated, and the principal of and interest on the Notes and other Borrower Guaranteed Obligations, and all other amounts payable by the Borrower, any other Credit Party or other Restricted Subsidiary, under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations, shall have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Credit Party, the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.15 with respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.

(e) Waiver of Acceptance, etc. The Borrower irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any person against any other Credit Party or any other Person, or against any collateral or guaranty of any other Person.

(f) Subrogation. Until the indefeasible payment in full of all of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments hereunder, the Borrower shall have no rights, by operation of law or otherwise, upon making any payment under this Section to be subrogated to the rights of the payee against any other Credit Party with respect to such payment or otherwise to be reimbursed, indemnified or exonerated by any such Credit Party in respect thereof.

(g) Effect of Stay. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by any Credit Party under any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Credit Party, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any applicable agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Borrower under this Section 2.15 forthwith on demand by the applicable Administrative Agent.

Section 2.16 Extension Amendments.

(a) Extension of Revolving Facility Termination Date.

(i) The Borrower may, from time to time (such date, the “Revolving Facility Extension Request Date”), by written notice to the Revolver Administrative Agent, request an extension of the Revolving Facility Termination Date in effect at such time to the extended maturity date specified in such notice. The Revolver Administrative Agent shall promptly (and in any case, within two Business Days of its receipt of such notice), notify each Revolving Lender of such request, and each Revolving Lender shall in turn, in its sole discretion, promptly notify the Borrower and the Revolver Administrative Agent in writing as to whether such Lender will consent to such extension. If any Revolving Lender shall fail to notify the Revolver Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of its consent to any such request for extension of the Revolving Facility Termination Date at least 45 days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Non-Consenting Revolving Lender with respect to such extension request. The Revolver Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of the decision of the Revolving Lenders regarding the Borrower’s request for an extension of the Revolving Facility Termination Date.

(ii) If all the Revolving Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with subsection (i) of this Section 2.16(a), the Revolving Facility Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the Revolving Facility Extension Request Date (the “Revolving Facility Extension Date”), be extended to the extended maturity date specified in such notice; provided that on each Revolving Facility Extension Date the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied. If less than all of the Revolving Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with subsection (i) of this Section 2.16(a), the Revolving Facility Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the applicable Revolving Facility Extension Date and subject to subsection (iv) of this Section 2.16(a), be extended as to those Revolving Lenders that so consented (each a “Consenting Revolving Lender”) but shall not be extended as to any other Revolving Lender (each a “Non-Consenting Revolving Lender”). To the extent that the Revolving Facility Termination Date is not extended as to any Revolving Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16(a) and the Commitment of such Lender is not assumed in accordance with subsection (iii) of this Section 2.16(a) on or prior to the applicable Revolving Facility Extension Date, the Revolving Commitment of such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender shall automatically terminate in whole on such unextended Revolving Facility Termination Date without any further notice or other action by the Borrower, such Lender or any other Person; provided that such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender’s rights under Sections 3.04, 11.01 or 11.02, and its obligations under Section 9.09, shall survive the Revolving Facility Termination Date for such Lender as to matters occurring prior to such date. It is understood and agreed that no Revolving Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the Borrower for any requested extension of the Revolving Facility Termination Date.

(iii) If less than all of the Revolving Lenders consent to any such request pursuant to subsection (i) of this Section 2.16(a), the Revolver Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Consenting Revolving Lenders, and each Consenting Revolving Lender may, in its sole discretion, give written notice to the Revolver Administrative Agent not later than 30 days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date of the amount of the Non-Consenting Revolving Lenders’ Revolving Commitments for which it is willing to accept an assignment. If the Consenting Revolving Lenders notify the Revolver Administrative Agent that they are willing to accept assignments of Revolving Commitments in an aggregate amount that exceeds the amount of the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Consenting Revolving Lenders, such Revolving Commitments shall be allocated among the Consenting Revolving Lenders willing to accept such assignments in such amounts as are agreed between the Borrower and the Revolver Administrative Agent. If after giving effect to the assignments of Revolving Commitments described above there remains any Revolving Commitments of Non-Consenting Revolving Lenders, the Borrower may arrange for one or more Consenting Revolving Lenders or other Lenders (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 11.06(b)) ((each, an “Assuming Revolving Lender”) to assume, effective as of the Revolving Facility Extension Date, any Non-Consenting Revolving Lender’s Commitment and all of the obligations of such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender under this Agreement thereafter arising, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Non-Consenting Revolving

-62-

Lender; provided, however, that the amount of the Revolving Commitments of any such Assuming Revolving Lender as a result of such substitution shall in no event be less than $10,000,000 unless the amount of the Revolving Commitments of such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender is less than $10,000,000, in which case such Assuming Revolving Lender shall assume all of such lesser amount; and provided further that:

(A) any such Consenting Revolving Lender or Assuming Revolving Lender shall have paid to such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender (A) the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the effective date of the assignment on, the Revolving Facility Exposure, if any, of such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender plus (B) any accrued but unpaid Fees owing to such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender as of the effective date of such assignment;

(B) all additional costs reimbursements, expense reimbursements and indemnities payable to such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender, and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender hereunder, as of the effective date of such assignment shall have been paid to such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender; and

(C) with respect to any such Assuming Revolving Lender, the applicable processing and recordation fee required under Section 11.06(b)(iv) for such assignment shall have been paid;

provided further that such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender’s rights under Sections 3.04, 11.01 or 11.02, and its obligations under Section 9.09, shall survive such substitution as to matters occurring prior to the date of substitution. At least three Business Days prior to any Revolving Facility Extension Date, (A) each such Assuming Revolving Lender, if any, shall have delivered to the Borrower and the Revolver Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, duly executed by such Assuming Revolving Lender, such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender, the Borrower and the Revolver Administrative Agent, (B) any such Consenting Revolving Lender shall have delivered confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Revolver Administrative Agent as to the increase in the amount of its Revolving Commitment and (C) each Non-Consenting Revolving Lender being replaced pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall have delivered to the Revolver Administrative Agent any Note or Notes held by such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender. Upon the payment or prepayment of all amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence, each such Consenting Revolving Lender or Assuming Revolving Lender, as of the Revolving Facility Extension Date, will be substituted for such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender under this Agreement and shall be a Revolving Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, without any further acknowledgment by or the consent of the other Lenders, and the obligations of each such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender hereunder shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged.

(iv) If (after giving effect to any assignments or assumptions pursuant to subsection (iii) of this Section 2.16(a)) Lenders having Revolving Commitments equal to at least 50% of the Revolving Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Revolving Facility Extension Date consent in writing to a requested extension (whether by execution or delivery of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement or otherwise) not later than one Business Day prior to such Revolving Facility Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower, and, subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions in Section 4.02, the Revolving Facility Termination Date then in effect shall be extended for the additional one-year period as described in subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, and all references in this Agreement, and in the Notes, if any, to the “Revolving Facility Termination Date” shall, with respect to each Consenting Revolving Lender and each Assuming Revolving Lender for such Revolving Facility Extension Date, refer to the Revolving Facility Termination Date as so extended. Promptly following each Revolving Facility Extension Date, the Revolver Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Revolving Lender) of the extension of the scheduled Revolving Facility Termination Date in effect immediately prior thereto and shall thereupon record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each such Consenting Revolving Lender and each such Assuming Revolving Lender.

(b) Term Loan Extensions.

(i) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Term Loan Administrative Agent from time to time, request an extension (each, a “Term Loan Extension”) of the maturity date of any Class of Term

-63-

Loans to the extended maturity date specified in such notice. Such notice shall (1) set forth the amount of the applicable Class of Term Loans that will be subject to the Term Loan Extension (which shall be in minimum increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $25,000,000), (2) set forth the date on which such Term Loan Extension is requested to become effective (which shall be not less than ten (10) Business Days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date of such Term Loan Extension notice (or such longer or shorter periods as the Term Loan Administrative Agent shall agree in its sole discretion)) and (3) identify the relevant Class of Term Loans to which such Term Loan Extension relates. Each Lender of the applicable Class shall be offered (a “Term Loan Extension Offer”) an opportunity to participate in such Term Loan Extension on a pro rata basis and on the same terms and conditions as each other Lender of such Class pursuant to procedures established by, or reasonably acceptable to, the Term Loan Administrative Agent and the Borrower. If the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans in respect of which Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Term Loan Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans subject to the Term Loan Extension Offer as set forth in the Term Loan Extension notice, then the Term Loans of Lenders of the applicable Class shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts with respect to which such Lenders have accepted such Term Loan Extension Offer.

(ii) The following shall be conditions precedent to the effectiveness of any Term Loan Extension: (1) the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall have been satisfied as of the effective date of the Term Loan Extension and (2) the terms of such Extended Term Loans shall comply with paragraph (b)(iii) of this Section 2.16.

(iii) The terms of each Term Loan Extension shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable extending Lenders and set forth in a Term Loan Extension Amendment; provided that (1) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loan shall be no earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date, (2) the average life to maturity of the Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining average life to maturity of the existing Term Loans, (3) the Extended Term Loans will rank pari passu in right of payment and with respect to security with the existing Term Loans and the borrower and guarantors of the Extended Term Loans shall be the same as the Borrower and Guarantors with respect to the existing Term Loans, (4) the interest rate margin, rate floors, fees, original issue discount and premium applicable to Extended Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable extending Lenders, (5) the Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata or less than pro rata (but not greater than pro rata) basis in voluntary or mandatory prepayments with the other Term Loans and (6) the terms of the Extended Term Loans shall be substantially identical to the existing Term Loans (except as set forth in clauses (1) through (5) above).

(iv) In connection with any Term Loan Extension, the Borrower, the Term Loan Administrative Agent and each applicable extending Lender shall execute and deliver to the Term Loan Administrative Agent a Term Loan Extension Amendment and such other documentation as the Term Loan Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Term Loan Extension. The Term Loan Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Term Loan Extension. Any Term Loan Extension Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Term Loan Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to implement the terms of any such Term Loan Extension, including any amendments necessary to establish Extended Term Loans as a new Class of Term Loans and such other technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Term Loan Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new Class or tranche (including to preserve the pro rata treatment of the extended and non-extended Classes or tranches), in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.16(b).

-64-

Section 2.17 Term Loans.

(a) On the Closing Date, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Initial Term Loan Lender severally agrees to make a single term loan in U.S. Dollars to the Borrower in a principal amount equal to the Initial Term Loan Commitment of such Lender. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.17 (a) are referred to as the “Initial Term Loans.” The Initial Term Loans may be, from time to time, Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans or a combination thereof.

(b) In addition to any other payments or prepayments required herein, the Borrower shall repay to the Term Loan Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Term Loan Lenders, the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans outstanding in consecutive quarterly installments on the last day of each quarter beginning with the quarter ending March 31, 2018 in an amount equal to $1,962,500 (provided, however, if such payment date is not a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the preceding Business Day), unless accelerated sooner pursuant to Section 8.02.

Section 2.18 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Cash Collateral.

(i) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Revolver Administrative Agent or the LC Issuer (with a copy to the Revolver Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the LC Issuer’s LC Outstandings with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.18(b)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than 103% of the LC Issuer’s LC Outstandings with respect to such Defaulting Lender.

(ii) The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Revolver Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the LC Issuer, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the obligations of Defaulting Lenders that are Revolving Lenders to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit, to be applied pursuant to clause (iii) below. If at any time the Revolver Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Revolver Administrative Agent and the LC Issuer as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the minimum amount required pursuant to clause (i) above, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Revolver Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Revolver Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.18(a) or 2.18(b) in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the obligations of Defaulting Lenders that are Revolving Lenders to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(iv) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any LC Issuer’s LC Outstandings shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.18(a) following (A) the elimination of the applicable LC Outstandings (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Revolving Lender), or (B) the determination by the Revolver Administrative Agent and the LC Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Sections 2.18(b) through 2.18(d) the Person providing Cash Collateral and each LC Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated LC Outstandings or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

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

-65-

(i) Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definitions of Required Lenders and Required Revolving Lenders and in Section 11.12.

(ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Revolver Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.12 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Revolver Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Revolver Administrative Agent hereunder; second, in the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, in the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender, to Cash Collateralize the LC Issuer’s LC Outstandings with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.18(a); fourth, 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 Revolver Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Revolver Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) in the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender, Cash Collateralize the LC Issuers’ future LC Outstandings with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.18(a); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no 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 eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans of a Class or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of such Class of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders of the applicable Class on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans of such Class and funded and unfunded participations in LC Disbursements and Swing Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Revolving Commitments and outstanding Term Loans without giving effect to clause (iv) below and all Term Loans are held by the Term Loan Lenders pro rata as if there had been no Defaulting Lenders in such Class. 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 this Section 2.18(b)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) (A) No Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Fee pursuant to Section 2.11(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 that Defaulting Lender).

(B) Each Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender shall be entitled to receive letter of credit fees pursuant to Section 2.11(c) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to that portion of its LC Outstandings for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.18(a).

(C) With respect to any Unused Fee or letter of credit fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender

-66-

with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each LC Issuer and Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the LC Issuer’s LC Outstandings or Swing Line Lender’s Swing Line Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) In the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender, all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders that are Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Facility Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure of such Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment. 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.

(v) If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s Swing Line Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the LC Issuers’ LC Outstandings with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(a).

(c) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Revolver Administrative Agent (and solely in the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender, Swing Line Lender and LC Issuer) agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Revolver 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, in the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender, may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Revolver Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause, as applicable (i) the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans to be held pro rata by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with the applicable Revolving Facility Percentage (without giving effect to Section 2.18(b)(iv)) and (ii) the Term Loans to be held by the Term Loan Lenders pro rata as if there had been no Defaulting Lender that is a Term Loan Lender, 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 that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, 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.

(d) New Swing Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Swing Line Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Loan and (ii) no LC Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no LC Outstandings after giving effect thereto.

Section 2.19 Increase in Revolving Commitments; Incremental Term Loans.

(a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the applicable Administrative Agent, request (1) during the period from the Closing Date until the Revolving Facility Termination Date, that the Total Revolving Commitment be increased (“Incremental Revolving Commitments”) and (2) during the period from the Closing Date until the Term Loan Maturity Date, to add additional tranches of Term Loans or increase the aggregate Term Loans hereunder (“Incremental Term Loans” and together with the Incremental Revolving Commitments, the “Incremental Facilities”), by an amount not to exceed the Incremental Amount; provided that no commitment of any Lender shall be increased without the consent of such Lender. The Borrower may invite any Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender and/or any Approved Fund, and/or any other Person reasonably satisfactory to the applicable

-67-

Administrative Agent (and, in the case of Incremental Revolving Commitments, each LC Issuer and the Swing Line Lender), to provide all or any portion of an Incremental Facility (any such Person, an “Incremental Lender”). Any proposed Incremental Lender offered or approached to provide all or a portion of any Incremental Facility may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Facility. The applicable Administrative Agent shall deliver a copy of such request to each Lender. The Borrower shall set forth in each such request the amount of the requested Incremental Facility (which amount shall be in minimum increments of $10,000,000 and a minimum amount of at least $10,000,000) and the date on which such Incremental Facility is requested to become effective. Commitments in respect of any Incremental Facility shall become Commitments 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 applicable Incremental Lenders and the Administrative Agents. An Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agents, to effect the provisions of this Section. Subject to Section 1.07 in the case of a Limited Condition Transaction, no such Incremental Facility shall be effective unless (x) all of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02, both before and after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loans, shall have been satisfied and (y) the Borrower shall have provided to the applicable Administrative Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer (and such Administrative Agent shall deliver a copy of such certificate to each Lender) certifying that the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding clause (x) have been satisfied.

(b) Each Incremental Facility shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Obligations and shall only be secured by the Collateral and guaranteed by the Guarantors. Any Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be on the same terms as the Revolving Commitments. Each Incremental Term Loan shall be subject to the same terms as the Initial Term Loans, except that:

(i) If the Initial Yield applicable to any Incremental Term Loan exceeds by more than 0.50% the Initial Yield then in effect for the existing Term Loans, the existing Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Initial Yield in respect of such Term Loans is equal to the Initial Yield for such Incremental Term Loans minus 0.50% per annum (provided that if the applicable Incremental Term Loan includes any interest rate floor greater than that applicable to the existing Term Loans, such excess amount shall be equated to interest rate margin for determining the increase, but only to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor in the applicable Term Loans would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder at the time of determination, and in such case the interest rate floor (but not the interest rate margin) applicable to the Term Loans shall be increased to the extent of each differential between interest rate floors) (the “MFN Protection”).

(ii) the final stated maturity for such Incremental Term Loans may be the same as or later (but not sooner) than the Latest Maturity Date applicable to then existing Term Loans;

(iii) the amortization requirements for such Incremental Term Loans may differ from those of the then-existing Term Loans; provided that the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Incremental Term Loans is no shorter than the Average Weighted Life to Maturity of the then outstanding Term Loans;

(iv) any Incremental Term Loans may provide for the ability to participate on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans; and

(v) other terms may differ if reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Incremental Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans; provided that the other terms of Incremental Term Loans that are not substantially similar to the then-existing Term Loans (other than pursuant to clauses (i)-(iv) above) shall be (taken as a whole) not materially more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) to the relevant Incremental Lenders than those applicable to the then-existing Term Loans or or such terms shall be current market terms (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) for such type of Indebtedness (except for covenants or other provisions (A) applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date of the then-existing Term Loans at the time of incurrence or (B) also provided to the relevant Lenders of the then-existing Term Loans).

-68-

(c) Each of the parties hereto agrees that the Revolver Administrative Agent may take any and all actions as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that after giving effect to any increase in the Total Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.19, the outstanding Revolving Loans (if any) are held by the Lenders with Revolving Commitments in accordance with their new Revolving Facility Percentages. This may be accomplished at the discretion of the Revolver Administrative Agent: (w) by requiring the outstanding Revolving Loans to be prepaid with the proceeds of new Revolving Borrowings; (x) by causing existing Lenders to assign portions of their outstanding Revolving Loans (but not their Revolving Commitments) to Incremental Lenders; (y) by permitting the Revolving Borrowings outstanding at the time of any increase in the Total Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.19 to remain outstanding until the last days of the respective Interest Periods therefor, even though the Revolving Lenders would hold such Revolving Borrowings other than in accordance with their new Revolving Facility Percentages; or (z) by any combination of the foregoing. Any prepayment or assignment described in this paragraph (d) shall be subject to Section 3.02, but otherwise without premium or penalty.

(d) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that, if there are any Material Real Properties subject to a Mortgage, any increase, extension or renewal of any of the Commitments or Loans (including the provision of Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments, but excluding (i) any Continuation or Conversion of Borrowings, (ii) the making of any Revolving Loans or Swing Loans or (iii) the issuance, renewal or extension of Letters of Credit) shall be subject to (and conditioned upon): (1) delivery, ten (10) Business Days prior to such increase, extension or renewal, of all flood hazard determination certifications, acknowledgements and evidence of flood insurance and other flood-related documentation with respect to such properties as required by flood insurance laws and as otherwise reasonably required by the Collateral Agent and (2) the Collateral Agent shall have received written confirmation from the Lenders that the flood insurance due diligence and flood insurance compliance has been completed by the Lenders (such written confirmation not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 2.20 Refinancing Amendments.

(a) At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of (a) all or any portion of the Term Loans (which for purposes of this sentence will be deemed to include any Incremental Term Loans or Other Term Loans) or (b) all or any portion of the Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Commitments) then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this sentence will be deemed to include any then outstanding Incremental Revolving Loans, Incremental Revolving Commitments, 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 Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (i) may be secured by Liens on the Collateral on a pari passu or junior basis with respect to the Liens on the Collateral securing the other Loans and Commitments hereunder (provided that to the extent such Term Loans are secured by junior liens the applicable parties shall have entered into a customary intercreditor agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agents and the Borrower), (ii) will have such pricing and optional prepayment terms as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof (provided, that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may participate on a pro rata basis or on a less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments hereunder, as specified in the applicable Refinancing Amendment), (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 the Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Commitments) being refinanced and (y) 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, (iv) the proceeds of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the prepayment of outstanding Term Loans or reduction of the Revolving Commitments or the Other Revolving Commitments being so refinanced and (v) subject to clause (ii) above, will have terms and conditions that are substantially identical to, or no more favorable (taken as a whole) to the lenders or investors providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness than, the Refinanced Debt or such terms shall be current market terms (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) for such type of Indebtedness; provided, further, that the terms and conditions applicable to such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders

thereof and applicable only during periods after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the date such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is issued, incurred or obtained.

(b) The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). Each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.20 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (x) not less than $10,000,000 in the case of Other Term Loans or Other Revolving Loans and (y) an integral multiple of $10,000,000 in excess thereof in each case. Any Refinancing Amendment may provide for the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower pursuant to any Other Revolving Commitments established thereby, on terms substantially equivalent to the terms applicable to Letters of Credit under the Revolving Commitments. 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 Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Revolving Loans, Other Term Loans, Other Revolving Commitments and/or Other Term Commitments). 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 Agents and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.20.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.20 or otherwise, (i) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Commitments, (B) repayments required at maturity and (C) repayments made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments (subject to clause (iii) below)) of Other Revolving Loans shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, (ii) all Swing Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Revolving Commitments in accordance with their Revolving Facility Percentage and (iii) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans and termination of Revolving Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate Revolving Commitments of any Class on a better than pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class.

ARTICLE III.

INCREASED COSTS, ILLEGALITY AND TAXES

Section 3.01 Inability to Determine Interest Rates.

If, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing:

(i) the applicable Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or

(ii) the applicable Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period,

the applicable Administrative Agent shall give written notice (or telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to such Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. Until the applicable Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and such Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (which notice shall be promptly given by the applicable Administrative Agent when such circumstances no longer exist), (i) the obligations of such Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans or to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or into Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended and (ii) all such affected Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto unless the Borrower prepays such Loans in accordance

-70-

with this Agreement. Unless the Borrower notifies the applicable Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day before the date of any Eurodollar Borrowing for which a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation has previously been given that it elects not to borrow, continue or convert to a Eurodollar Borrowing on such date, then such Borrowing shall be made as, continued as or converted into a Base Rate Borrowing.

If at any time the applicable Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (i) above have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (i) above have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the Eurodollar Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Eurodollar Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then such Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest the Eurodollar Screen Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.12, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the applicable Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders of each Class stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 3.01, only to the extent the Eurodollar Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) (i) the obligations of such Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans or to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or into Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended and (ii) all such affected Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto unless the Borrower prepays such Loans in accordance with this Agreement. Unless the Borrower notifies the applicable Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day before the date of any Eurodollar Borrowing for which a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation has previously been given that it elects not to borrow, continue or convert to a Eurodollar Borrowing on such date, then such Borrowing shall be made as, continued as or converted into a Base Rate Borrowing; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.

Section 3.02 Breakage Compensation. The Borrower shall compensate any Lender (including the Swing Line Lender), upon its written request (which request shall set forth the detailed basis for requesting and the method of calculating such compensation), for all reasonable losses, costs, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, cost, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Fixed Rate Loans or Swing Loans and costs associated with foreign currency hedging obligations incurred by such Lender in connection with any Fixed Rate Loan) which such Lender has incurred in connection with any of the following: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the applicable Administrative Agent) a Borrowing of Fixed Rate Loans or Swing Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Continuation or Conversion; (ii) if any repayment, prepayment, Conversion or Continuation of any Fixed Rate Loan occurs on a date that is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto or any Swing Loan is paid prior to the Swing Loan Maturity Date applicable thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Fixed Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower; (iv) as a result of an assignment by a Lender of any Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto pursuant to a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.05(b); or (v) as a consequence of (y) any other default by the Borrower to repay or prepay any Fixed Rate Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or (z) an election made pursuant to Section 3.05(b). The written request of any affected Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such request within 10 days after receipt thereof.

Section 3.03 Taxes.

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 3.03, the term “Lender” includes LC Issuer and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party 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, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to 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 and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Credit Party 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 3.03(b)) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the applicable Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. 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 3.03(d)) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the applicable Administrative Agent), or by the applicable Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the applicable Administrative Agent, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the applicable Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) and (ii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the applicable Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the applicable Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the applicable Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the applicable Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the applicable Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or any other Credit Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.03, the Borrower or other Credit Party shall deliver to the applicable 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 applicable Administrative Agent.

(g) 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 applicable Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the applicable Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the applicable 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 applicable Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the applicable Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the applicable Administrative Agent to determine whether or

-72-

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 Sections 3.03(g)(ii)(A), 3.03(g)(ii)(B) and 3.03(g)(ii)(D)) 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, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Borrower,

(A) Any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the applicable 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 applicable Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the applicable Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the applicable Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

i) in the case of a Foreign 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 originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, 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, as applicable, 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;

ii) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

iii) in the case of a Foreign 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 G-A to the effect that such Foreign 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 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

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

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the applicable Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the applicable Administrative Agent), executed originals 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 applicable Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

-73-

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the applicable Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the applicable 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 applicable Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the applicable Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “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 applicable Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.03 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.03), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party 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 paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i) The applicable Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower on or prior to the date on which such Administrative Agent becomes an Administrative Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower) executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Administrative Agent is a U.S. Person and that such Administrative Agent is exempt from United States federal backup withholding Tax

(j) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.03 shall survive the resignation or replacement of any Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 3.04 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate hereunder against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate) or the LC Issuer; or

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes and (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes)

-74-

on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto); or

(iii) impose on any Lender, the LC Issuer or the eurodollar interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or any participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining a Eurodollar Loan or to increase the cost to such Lender or the LC Issuer of participating in or issuing any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount received or receivable by such Lender or the LC Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, from time to time, such Lender or the LC Issuer may provide the Borrower (with a copy thereof to the applicable Administrative Agent) with written notice and demand with respect to such increased costs or reduced amounts, and within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice and demand the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender or the LC Issuer for any such increased costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or the LC Issuer shall have determined that on or after the date of this Agreement any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the LC Issuer’s capital (or on the capital of the Parent Company of such Lender or the LC Issuer) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender, the LC Issuer or such Parent Company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the LC Issuer’s policies or the policies of such Parent Company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then, from time to time, such Lender or the LC Issuer may provide the Borrower (with a copy thereof to the applicable Administrative Agent) with written notice and demand with respect to such reduced amounts, and within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice and demand the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender, the LC Issuer or such Parent Company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of such Lender or the LC Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Parent Company of such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower (with a copy to the applicable Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the LC Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the LC Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the LC Issuer under this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or the LC Issuer notifies the Borrower of such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the LC Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then such 270 day period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect.

Section 3.05 Change of Lending Office; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Sections 3.01, 3.03, 3.04 or 3.06 requiring the payment of additional amounts to the Lender, such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another Applicable Lending Office for any Loans or Commitments affected by such event; provided, however, that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its Applicable Lending Office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section.

(b) If (a) any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.03, (b) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or (c) any Lender does not consent to a request for an extension pursuant to Section 2.16(a) or a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document requiring the approval of all Lenders or of all Lenders directly affected thereby that has been approved by the applicable Required Lenders, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender

-75-

and the applicable Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 11.06(b)), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.13(c), 3.04 or 3.03, as applicable) and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender) (a “Replacement Lender”); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the applicable Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of all Loans owed to it, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) and from the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts, including any breakage compensation under Section 3.02 and prepayment premium under Section 2.13(c)), and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.03, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(c) Nothing in this Section 3.05 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Sections 3.01, 3.03 or 3.04.

Section 3.06 Illegality. If any Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder or to make, maintain or fund any Eurodollar Loan and such Lender shall so notify the applicable Administrative Agent, such Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and the other Lenders, whereupon until such Lender notifies the applicable Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Lender to make Eurodollar Loans, or to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or into Eurodollar Loans, shall be suspended. In the case of the making of a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Lender’s Loan shall be made as a Base Rate Loan as part of the same Borrowing for the same Interest Period and, if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then outstanding, such Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan either (i) on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Loan if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Loan to such date or (ii) immediately if such Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loan to such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the affected Lender shall, prior to giving such notice to the applicable Administrative Agent, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation would avoid the need for giving such notice and if such designation would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in the good faith exercise of its discretion.

Section 5.13 Environmental Matters.

(a) The Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries is in compliance with all Environmental Laws, except to the extent that any such failure to comply (together with any resulting penalties, fines or forfeitures) is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

There are no Environmental Claims pending or, to the best knowledge of any Borrower, threatened against the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Real Property of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.14 Compliance with ERISA. Each Plan is in material compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other requirements of law. Each Plan under Section 3(1) of ERISA has not been assessed, and is not reasonably expected to have assessed, any material tax or penalty under Code Section 4980H. Each Qualified Plan (i) has received a favorable determination from the IRS applicable to the Qualified Plan’s then current five-year remedial amendment cycle (as described in Revenue Procedure 2007-44) or (ii) is maintained under a prototype or volume submitter plan and may rely upon a favorable opinion or advisory letter issued by the IRS with respect to such prototype or volume submitter plan. Nothing has occurred which would cause the loss of their reliance on the Qualified Plan’s favorable determination letter or opinion letter. No ERISA Event or Foreign

-82-

Plan Event has occurred or is expected to occur that (either individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.14: (i) there are no pending or to the best of the Borrower’s and ERISA Affiliate’s knowledge, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits with respect to a Plan other than routine claims for benefits provided by the Plans and (ii) neither Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary has violated the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Plan.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, neither of the Administrative Agents shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, nor any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or LC Issuer, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against such Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agents and the Lenders, and no Credit Party shall have any rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, each Administrative Agent shall act solely as agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 9.02 Delegation of Duties. Each Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact, and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Neither of the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care except to the extent otherwise required by Section 9.03.

Section 9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither of the Administrative Agents nor any of its Related Parties shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its or such Related Parties’ own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by such Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any of their respective officers to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. Neither Administrative Agent shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than confirming delivery of items expressly required to be delivered to such Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents), or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower. Neither Administrative Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Loan Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or any other documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by such Administrative Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to such Administrative Agent or any Lender or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Administrative Agent shall be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Credit Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Creditors for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

Section 9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agents. Each Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, e-mail or other electronic transmission, facsimile transmission, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Administrative Agent. Each Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable, as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each 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, Required Revolving Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable, as to any matter that, pursuant to Section 11.12, can only be effectuated with the consent of all Required Lenders, Required Revolving Lenders or all applicable Lenders, as the case may be), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

-103-

Section 9.05 Notice of Default. No Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless such Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” If any Administrative Agent receives such a notice, such Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The applicable Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that unless and until the applicable Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the applicable Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

Section 9.06 Non-Reliance. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither of the Administrative Agents nor any of their respective Related Parties has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by such Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of an investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. Neither Administrative Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial and other conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that may come into the possession of such Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties.

Section 9.07 No Reliance on Administrative Agents’ Customer Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on any Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, any of their respective Affiliates or agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder: (a) any identity verification procedures, (b) any record keeping, (c) any comparisons with government lists, (d) any customer notices or (e) any other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other laws.

Section 9.08 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, and the Collateral Agent agrees with the Borrower that the Collateral Agent shall:

(a) release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon the termination of all Commitments, the Cash Collateralization of all reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit in an amount equal to 103% of the aggregate LC Outstandings of all Lenders, and the payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations and such Cash Collateralized reimbursement obligations), (ii) that is sold or to be sold to any Person that is not a Credit Party as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 11.12; and

(b) release any Credit Party from its obligations under the applicable Collateral Documents if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.

Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Credit Party from its

-104-

obligations under the applicable Collateral Documents pursuant to this Section. In each case as specified in this Section, the Collateral Agent is authorized, at the Borrower’s expense, to execute and deliver, without recourse or warranty, to the applicable Credit Party such documents as such Credit Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the Liens granted under the applicable Collateral Documents, or to release such Credit Party from its obligations under the applicable Collateral Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section.

Section 9.09 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Administrative Agent and its Related Parties, ratably according to their pro rata share of the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure (excluding Swing Loans), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, reasonable expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Administrative Agent or such Related Parties in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Administrative Agent or such Related Parties under or in connection with any of the foregoing, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not paid by the Borrower; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable to such Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting solely from such Administrative Agent’s or such Related Parties’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any indemnity furnished to any Administrative Agent or any such Related Parties for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations.

Section 9.10 The Administrative Agents in Individual Capacities. Each Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates as though not acting as an Administrative Agent hereunder. With respect to the Loans made by it and all Obligations owing to it, each Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

Section 9.11 Successor Administrative Agents. Each Administrative Agent may resign at any time upon not less than 30 days’ notice to the Lenders, each LC Issuer and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the approval of the Borrower, to appoint a successor. 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, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and each LC Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent; provided, however, that if such Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no such successor is willing to accept such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring 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 as Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders or any LC Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through such Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and LC Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as an Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring 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 paragraph). 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 Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.02 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and

-105-

their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as an Administrative Agent.

Section 9.12 Other Agents. Any Lender identified herein as a Co-Agent, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent, Lead Arranger, Arranger, Joint-Bookrunner or any other corresponding title, other than “Collateral Agent” or “Administrative Agent,” shall have no right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any other Loan Document except those applicable to all Lenders as such. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any Lender so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking any action hereunder.

Section 9.13 Defaulting Agents. At any time any Lender serving as an Administrative Agent or an LC Issuer becomes a Defaulting Lender (each, a “Defaulting Agent”), then the Borrower (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) or the Required Lenders may, but shall not be required to, direct such Defaulting Agent to resign, and upon the direction of the Borrower (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, such Defaulting Agent shall be required to so resign and upon such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor. Such resigning Defaulting Agent shall cooperate reasonably and in good faith to effectuate the transfer of the agency to the successor agent, including the execution and delivery of such assignments, modifications, documents, certificates and further assurances as such successor agent may reasonably request.

Section 9.14 Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guarantee. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agents, the Collateral Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (i) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Collateral Documents, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral 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, 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 public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.

Section 9.15 Collateral Agent. It is understood and agreed that Deutsche Bank in its capacity as Collateral Agent shall have the same rights, protections, privileges, indemnities and immunities pursuant to this Article IX as Deutsche Bank in its capacity as Term Loan Administrative Agent.

ARTICLE X.

GUARANTY

Section 10.01 Guaranty by the Subsidiary Guarantors, etc.

(a) Each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to each Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer, the Lenders, each Bank Product Provider and each Designated Hedge Creditor, as applicable, the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of all of the Obligations. Such guaranty is an absolute, unconditional, present and continuing guaranty of payment and not of collectibility and is in no way conditioned or contingent upon any attempt to collect from the Borrower or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower, or any other action, occurrence or circumstance whatsoever. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing hereunder or any payment default shall occur and be outstanding under any Designated Hedge Agreement or in respect of any Bank Product Obligations, each Subsidiary Guarantor will, immediately upon (and in any event no later than one Business Day following) its receipt of written notice from an Administrative Agent demanding payment hereunder, pay to such Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Creditors, in immediately available funds, at the applicable Payment Office, such amount of the Obligations as such Administrative Agent shall specify in such notice.

-106-

(b) In addition to the foregoing, each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Creditors the payment of any and all Obligations, whether or not due or payable by the obligor thereon, upon the occurrence of an Insolvency Event in respect of the Borrower or such other Credit Party, and unconditionally and irrevocably, jointly and severally, promises to pay the Obligations to the applicable Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Creditors, on demand, in such currency and otherwise in such manner as is provided in the Loan Documents governing the Obligations.

(c) As a separate, additional and continuing obligation, each Subsidiary Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes and agrees, for the benefit of the Creditors, that, should any amounts constituting Obligations not be recoverable from the Borrower or any other Credit Party for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, by reason of any provision of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument executed in connection therewith being or becoming, at any time, voidable, void, unenforceable, or otherwise invalid under any applicable law), then notwithstanding any notice or knowledge thereof by the applicable Administrative Agent, any other Creditor, any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person, each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, as sole, original and independent obligor, upon demand by an Administrative Agent, will make payment to such Administrative Agent, for the account of the Creditors, of all such obligations not so recoverable by way of full indemnity.

(d) All payments by each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article X shall be made to the Administrative Agents, for the benefit of the Creditors, in such currency and otherwise in such manner as is provided in the Loan Documents to which such payments relate.

Section 10.02 Subordination.

(a) Any Indebtedness or other obligations or liabilities of the Borrower now or hereafter held by any Subsidiary Guarantor (collectively, “Subordinated Obligations”) are hereby subordinated to the Indebtedness of the Borrower to any Creditor; and such Subordinated Obligations of the Borrower to any Subsidiary Guarantor, if the applicable Administrative Agent, after an Event of Default has occurred, so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by such Subsidiary Guarantor as trustee for such Administrative Agent and the other Creditors and be paid over to such Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Creditors, on account of the Indebtedness of the Borrower owing under the Loan Documents to such Administrative Agent and to the other Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of this Article X. Prior to the transfer by any Subsidiary Guarantor of any note or negotiable instrument evidencing any Subordinated Obligation of the Borrower to such Subsidiary Guarantor, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall mark such note or negotiable instrument with a legend that the same is subject to this subordination.

(b) If and to the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor makes any payment to any Administrative Agent or any other Creditor or to any other Person pursuant to or in respect of this Article X, any reimbursement or similar claim that such Subsidiary Guarantor may have against the Borrower by reason thereof shall be subject and subordinate to the prior termination of all of the Commitments and indefeasible payment in full of all Obligations.

Section 10.03 Subsidiary Guarantors’ Obligations Absolute. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article X shall be absolute and unconditional, shall not be subject to any counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense based on any claim such Subsidiary Guarantor may have against the Borrower or any other Person, including, without limitation, any Administrative Agent, any other Creditor, any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Guarantor, and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, abated, deferred, reduced, limited, discharged, terminated or otherwise impaired or adversely affected by any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, other than indefeasible payment in full of, and complete performance of, all of the Obligations, including, without limitation:

(a) any increase in the amount of the Obligations outstanding from time to time, including, without limitation, any increase in the aggregate outstanding amount of the Loans and Letters of Credit above any specific maximum amount referred to in this Agreement as in effect on the date hereof, and any increase in any interest rate, Fee or other amount applicable to any portion of the Obligations or otherwise payable under any Loan Document;

(b) any direction as to the application of any payment by the Borrower or by any other Person;

-107-

(c) any incurrence of additional Obligations at any time or under any circumstances, including, without limitation, (i) during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (ii) at any time when all conditions to such incurrence have not been satisfied, or (iii) in excess of any borrowing base, sublimit or other limitations contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(d) any renewal or extension of the time for payment or maturity of any of the Obligations, or any amendment or modification of, or addition or supplement to, or deletion from, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other instrument or agreement applicable to the Borrower or any other Person, or any part thereof, or any assignment, transfer or other disposition of any thereof;

(e) any failure of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other instrument or agreement applicable to the Borrower or any other Person, to constitute the legal, valid and binding agreement or obligation of any party thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, or any irregularity in the form of any Loan Document;

(f) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction (including, without limitation, any lack of diligence, any failure to mitigate damages or marshal assets, or any election of remedies) under or in respect of (i) this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any such other instrument or agreement, or (ii) any obligation or liability of the Borrower or any other Person;

(g) any payment made to any Administrative Agent or any other Creditor on the Obligations that such Administrative Agent or any other Creditor repays, returns or otherwise restores to the Borrower or any other applicable obligor pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding;

(h) any sale, exchange, release, surrender or foreclosure of, or any realization upon, or other dealing with, in any manner and in any order, any property, rights or interests by whomsoever at any time granted, assigned, pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Obligations, or any other liabilities or obligations (including any of those hereunder), or any portion of any thereof;

(i) any release of any security or any guaranty by or at the direction of the Administrative Agents, Collateral Agent or any other Creditor, or any release or discharge of, or limitation of recourse against, any Person furnishing any security or guaranty, including, without limitation, any release or discharge of any Guarantor from this Article X;

(j) any Insolvency Event relating to the Borrower or to any of its properties or assets;

(k) any assignment, transfer or other disposition, in whole or in part, by the Borrower or any other Person of its interest in any of the property, rights or interests constituting security for all or any portion of the Obligations or any other Indebtedness, liabilities or obligations;

(l) any lack of notice to, or knowledge by, any Subsidiary Guarantor of any of the matters referred to above; or

(m) to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law now or hereafter in effect, any other circumstance or occurrence, whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing, that could or might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of the obligations of, a guarantor or other surety, other than payment and performance.

-108-

Section 10.04 Waivers. Each Subsidiary Guarantor unconditionally waives, to the maximum extent permitted under any applicable law now or hereafter in effect, insofar as its obligations under this Article X are concerned, (a) notice of any of the matters referred to in Section 10.03, (b) all notices required by statute, rule of law or otherwise to preserve any rights against such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, including, without limitation, any demand, presentment, proof or notice of dishonor or non-payment of any Obligation, notice of acceptance of the Guaranty provided under this Article X, notice of the incurrence of any Obligation, notice of any failure on the part of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any other Person, to perform or comply with any term or provision of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument to which the Borrower or any other Person is a party, or notice of the commencement of any proceeding against any other Person or its any of its property or assets, (c) any right to the enforcement, assertion or exercise against the Borrower or against any other Person or any collateral of any right, power or remedy under or in respect of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument, and (d) any requirement that such Guarantor be joined as a party to any proceedings against the Borrower or any other Person for the enforcement of any term or provision of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any other agreement or instrument.

Section 10.05 Subrogation Rights. Until such time as the Obligations have been paid in full in cash and otherwise fully performed and all of the Commitments under this Agreement have been terminated, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives all rights of subrogation that it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Article X (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise) to the claims of the Administrative Agents and/or the other Creditors against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of or surety for the Obligations and all contractual, statutory or common law rights of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity from the Borrower or any other Guarantor that it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Article X.

Section 10.06 Separate Actions. A separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor, any other guarantor or the Borrower, and whether or not any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Borrower or the Borrower be joined in any such action or actions.

Section 10.07 Subsidiary Guarantors Familiar with Borrower’s Affairs. Each Guarantor confirms that it has made its own independent investigation with respect to the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its other Subsidiaries and Affiliates and is not executing this Agreement in reliance on any representation or warranty by any Administrative Agent or any other Creditor or any other Person acting on behalf of any Administrative Agent or any other Creditor as to such creditworthiness. Each Guarantor expressly assumes all responsibilities to remain informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and its other Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any circumstances affecting (a) the Borrower’s or any other Subsidiary’s Affiliate’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or (b) any collateral securing, or any other guaranty for, all or any part of the Borrower’s or such other Subsidiary’s or Affiliate’s payment and performance obligations thereunder; and each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that the Administrative Agents and the other Creditors shall have no duty to advise any Subsidiary Guarantor of information known to them regarding such circumstances or the risks such Subsidiary Guarantor undertakes in this Article X.

Section 10.08 Solvency. Each Subsidiary Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agents and each of the other Creditors that as of the date such Guarantor has become a party to this Agreement, (i) such Subsidiary Guarantor has received consideration that is the reasonable equivalent value of the obligations and liabilities that such Subsidiary Guarantor has incurred to the Administrative Agents and the other Creditors under this Article X and the other Loan Documents to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party; (ii) such Subsidiary Guarantor has capital sufficient to carry on its business and transactions and all business and transactions in which it is about to engage and is solvent and able to pay its debts as they mature; (iii) such Subsidiary Guarantor owns property having a value, both at fair valuation and at present fair salable value, greater than the amount required to pay its debts; and (iv) such Subsidiary Guarantor is not entering into the Loan Documents to which it is a party with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud its creditors.

-109-

Section 10.09 Continuing Guaranty; Remedies Cumulative, etc. The guaranty provided under this Article X is a continuing guaranty, all liabilities to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon, and this Article X shall remain in full force and effect until terminated as provided in Section 10.18. No failure or delay on the part of any Administrative Agent or any other Creditor in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that any Administrative Agent or any other Creditor would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any Administrative Agent or any other Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. It is not necessary for, and neither any Administrative Agent nor any other Creditor, undertakes any obligation or duty to, inquire into the capacity or powers of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

Section 10.10 Application of Payments and Recoveries. All amounts received by any Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in connection with the enforcement of, this Article X, together with all amounts and other rights and benefits realized by any Creditor (or to which any Creditor may be entitled) by virtue of this Article X, shall be applied as provided in Section 8.03.

Section 10.11 Enforcement Expenses. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay, to the extent not paid pursuant to Section 11.01, all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agents and each other Creditor in connection with the enforcement of this Article X and any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of a single counsel employed by the Administrative Agents and the other Creditors for each applicable jurisdiction, unless such counsel has a conflict of interest prohibiting it from representing one or more of the Creditors, in which case the fees and disbursements of separate counsel for such Creditors shall also be paid by the Guarantors as aforesaid).

Section 10.12 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default after any applicable notice and grace period, each Creditor is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Subsidiary Guarantor or to any other Person, any such notice being expressly waived, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law now or hereafter in effect, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Creditor to or for the credit or the account of such Subsidiary Guarantor, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor to such Creditor under this Article X, irrespective of whether or not any Administrative Agent or such Creditor shall have made any demand hereunder and although said obligations, liabilities, deposits or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured. Each Creditor agrees to promptly notify the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor after any such set off and application, provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

Section 10.13 Reinstatement. If a claim is ever made upon any Administrative Agent or any other Creditor for recession, repayment, recovery or restoration of any amount or amounts received by such Administrative Agent or any other Creditor in payment or on account of any of the Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (a) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property, or (b) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant, then and in such event (i) any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower, (ii) each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or otherwise recovered or restored to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee, and (iii) this Article X shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, all as if such repayment or other recovery had not occurred.

If all of the capital stock of one or more Subsidiary Guarantors is sold or otherwise disposed of or liquidated in compliance with the requirements of Section 7.02 (or such sale or other disposition has been approved in writing by the Required Lenders (or all Lenders, as applicable, if required by Section 11.12)) and the proceeds of such sale, disposition or liquidation are applied, to the extent applicable, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall, in accordance with Section 11.12, be released from this Article X and this Article X shall, as to each such Subsidiary Guarantor or Subsidiary Guarantors, terminate, and have no further force or effect.

Section 10.15 Contribution Among Guarantors.

If and to the extent that the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article X would, in the absence of this sentence, be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers, then the amount of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the Obligations shall be deemed to be reduced ab initio to that maximum amount that would be permitted without causing such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations hereunder to be so invalidated.

Section 10.17 [Intentionally Omitted].

Section 10.18 Termination. After the termination of all of the Commitments, when no LC Outstandings exist and when all Loans and other Obligations (other than unasserted indemnity obligations) have been paid in full, this guaranty provided under this Article X will terminate and the Administrative Agents, at the request and expense of the Borrower and/or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors, will execute and deliver to the Subsidiary Guarantors an instrument or instruments acknowledging such termination.

Section 10.19 Enforcement Only by Administrative Agents. The Creditors agree that the guaranty provided under this Article X may be enforced only by the action of the applicable Administrative Agent, acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and that no Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce the guaranty provided under this Article X, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the applicable Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Creditors, upon the terms of this Article X.

Section 10.20 Effect of Stay. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by any Subsidiary Guarantor under any of the Obligations is stayed upon insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Subsidiary Guarantor, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any applicable agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by such Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article forthwith on demand by the applicable Administrative Agent.

Section 11.02 Indemnification. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Administrative Agent, each Lender, and their respective Related Parties (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses reasonably incurred by any of them, or asserted against any of them by any Person (including without limitation the Borrower or any Subsidiary) as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of (i) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding related to the entering into and/or performance of any Loan Document or the use of the proceeds of any Loans hereunder or the consummation of any transactions contemplated in any Loan Document, other than any such investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of transactions solely between any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agents, transactions solely involving the assignment by a Lender of all or a portion of its Loans and Commitments, or the granting of participations therein, as provided in this Agreement, or arising solely out of any examination of a Lender by any regulatory or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it, or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials in the air, surface water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any Real Property owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Release, generation, storage, transportation or handling of Hazardous Materials at any location, whether or not owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, if the Borrower or any such Subsidiary could have or is alleged to have any responsibility in respect thereof, any Environmental Claim asserted against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any liability of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries arising under or pursuant to any Environmental Law, including, in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, without limitation, the reasonable documented fees and disbursements of counsel (such costs of counsel to be limited to one counsel to the Administrative Agents for each applicable jurisdiction and one single counsel for all other Indemnitees for each applicable jurisdiction unless such counsel has an actual or perceived conflict of interest prohibiting it from representing one or more of such Indemnitees, in which case the fees and disbursements of separate counsel for such Indemnitees shall also be paid by the Borrower as aforesaid) incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision to have resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Person to be indemnified or of any other Indemnitee who is such Person or an Affiliate of such Person or (y) arise out of disputes solely among Indemnitees not involving any act or omission of any Credit Party or any of their respective Related Parties (other than a dispute against any Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Arranger in their capacities as such).

This Section 11.02 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, or liabilities arising from any non-Tax claim.

Section 11.03 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender and each LC Issuer is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender or such LC Issuer (including, without limitation,

-112-

Each Lender and LC Issuer agrees to promptly notify the Borrower after any such set off and application, provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

Section 11.04 Equalization.

(a) Equalization. If at any time any Lender receives any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents, or otherwise) that is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans (other than Swing Loans), LC Participations, Swing Loan Participations or Fees (other than Fees that are intended to be paid solely to an Administrative Agent or an LC Issuer and amounts payable to a Lender under Article III), of a sum that with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Lenders in such amount.

(b) Recovery of Amounts. If any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to subparts (i) or (ii) above is recovered in whole or in part from such Lender, such original purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price restored ratably to the extent of the recovery.

(c) Consent of Borrower. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

The provisions of this Section 11.04 shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement where such terms expressly provide for or contemplate non-ratable payments to a Lender or (ii) any payment obtained by a Lender pursuant to Section 2.18 or as consideration for any assignment or participation pursuant to Section 11.06.

Section 11.06 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the applicable Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agents and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments, Loans and other Revolving Facility Exposure at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of (x) an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitments, Revolving Loans and other Revolving Facility Exposure at the time owing to it, (y) an assignment of the entire remaining amount of an assigning Term Loan Lender’s Term Loan Commitment or Term Loans at any time owing to it, or (z) in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and,

(ii) Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans, other Revolving Facility Exposure or the Commitments assigned, except that this subsection (b)(ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Commitments on a non-pro rata basis.

(iii) No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i) (B) of this Section and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is of a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the applicable Administrative Agent with five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B) the consent of the applicable Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless such assignment is of a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender; and

(C) the consent of the LC Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding), and the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Commitments.

(iv) The parties to each assignment shall deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent (A) a duly executed Assignment Agreement, (B) a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, (C) an Administrative Questionnaire unless the assignee is already a Lender and (D) the documents required under Section 3.03(g).

(v) No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries (except, for the avoidance of doubt, assignments pursuant to Section 2.13(e) or Section 11.06(g)) or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).

(vi) No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

(vii) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the applicable Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the applicable Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the

-115-

Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the applicable Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swing Line Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the applicable Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment Agreement, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, 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 Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement 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 3.04, 3.02, 3.03 and 11.02 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 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 subsection (d) of this Section. If the consent of the Borrower to an assignment is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment thresholds specified above), the Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the applicable Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof has actually been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the applicable Administrative Agent) to the Borrower.

(c) Each Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and Revolving Facility Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by such Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; information contained in the Register shall also be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In establishing and maintaining the Register, each Administrative Agent shall serve as the Borrower’s agent solely for tax purposes and solely with respect to the actions described in this Section, and the Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent SunTrust Bank and Deutsche Bank serve in such capacities, SunTrust Bank and Deutsche Bank and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees.”

(d) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, the Administrative Agents, the Swing Line Lender or the LC Issuer, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agents, the LC Issuer, the Swing Line Lender and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not,

-116-

without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to the following to the extent affecting such Participant: (i) increase the Commitment of such Lender; (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder; (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan or LC Disbursement or any fees hereunder or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date for the termination or reduction of any Commitment; (iv) change any of the provisions of Section 11.12(a) or the definition of “Required Lenders” or “Required Revolving Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder; (v) release all or substantially all of the guarantors, or limit the liability of such guarantors, under any guaranty agreement guaranteeing any of the Obligations; or (vi) release all or substantially all collateral (if any) securing any of the Obligations. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.04, 3.02, and 3.03 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.03(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.03(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to Section 3.05(b) as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.04 or 3.03, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.05 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.03 as though it were a Lender.

Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register in the United States on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have any responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.04 and 3.03 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.03 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 3.03(e) and (g) as though it were a Lender.

(f) 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, without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11.06, any Lender may, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Term Loans under this Agreement to the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries on a non-pro rata basis through open market purchases on a non-pro rata basis; provided that (x) such purchases are not financed with Borrowings of Revolving Loans and (y) any Term Loans so repurchased shall be immediately canceled.

-117-

Section 11.07 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower and any Administrative Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agents or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or any LC Issuance shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether any Administrative Agent, any Lender or any LC Issuer may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that any Administrative Agent or any Lender would otherwise have.

Section 11.08 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) Each of the Administrative Agents, each LC Issuer and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information, except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (1) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and instructed to keep such Confidential Information confidential), (2) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in any Hedge Agreement (or to any such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor), so long as such contractual counterparty (or such professional advisor) agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section, (3) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (4) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (5) to any other party to this Agreement, (6) to any other creditor of any Credit Party that is a direct or intended beneficiary of any of the Loan Documents, (7) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (8) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (9) with the consent of the Borrower, or (10) to the extent such Confidential Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (ii) becomes available to any Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Credit Party and not otherwise in violation of this Section.

(b) As used in this Section, “Confidential Information” shall mean all non-public information provided to any Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender (collectively, the “Restricted Persons” and, each a “Restricted Person”) by the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business in connection with such Restricted Person’s evaluation of whether to become a Lender hereunder or obtained by such Restricted Person pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement.

(c) Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information as such Person would accord to its

-121-

own confidential information. The Borrower hereby agrees that the failure of any Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender to comply with the provisions of this Section shall not relieve the Borrower, or any other Credit Party, of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

Section 11.16 Limitations on Liability of the LC Issuers. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letters of Credit. Neither any LC Issuer nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by an LC Issuer against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to such Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the LC Obligor shall have a claim against an LC Issuer, and an LC Issuer shall be liable to such LC Obligor, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by such LC Obligor that such LC Obligor proves were caused by (i) such LC Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (ii) such LC Issuer’s willful failure to make lawful payment under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of documentation strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, an LC Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation.

Section 11.17 General Limitation of Liability. No claim may be made by any Credit Party, any Lender, any Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer or any other Person against any Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer, or any other Lender or the Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents of any of them for any damages other than actual compensatory damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and the Borrower, each Lender, each Administrative Agent and each LC Issuer hereby, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, waive, release and agree not to sue or counterclaim upon any such claim for any special, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in their favor.

Section 11.18 No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, consultants and other professional persons (including the firms or other entities on behalf of which any such Person may act) retained by any Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of such Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to the Borrower, to any of its Subsidiaries, or to any other Person, with respect to any matters within the scope of such representation or related to their activities in connection with such representation. The Borrower agrees, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, not to assert any claim or counterclaim against any such persons with regard to such matters, all such claims and counterclaims, now existing or hereafter arising, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseeable, being hereby waived, released and forever discharged.

-122-

Section 11.19 Lenders and Agent Not Fiduciary to Borrower, etc. The relationship among the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agents, each LC Issuer and the Lenders, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor, and the Administrative Agents, each LC Issuer and the Lenders have no fiduciary or other special relationship with the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and no term or provision of any Loan Document, no course of dealing, no written or oral communication, or other action, shall be construed so as to deem such relationship to be other than that of debtor and creditor.

Section 11.20 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties herein shall survive the making of Loans and all LC Issuances hereunder, the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes and the other documents the forms of which are attached as Exhibits hereto, the issue and delivery of the Notes, any disposition thereof by any holder thereof, and any investigation made by any Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other holder of any of the Notes or on its behalf. All statements contained in any certificate or other document delivered to any Administrative Agent or any Lender or any holder of any Notes by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant hereto or otherwise specifically for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute representations and warranties by the Borrower hereunder, made as of the respective dates specified therein or, if no date is specified, as of the respective dates furnished to any Administrative Agent or any Lender.

Section 11.21 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.21, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by the Bankruptcy Code, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 11.22 Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action, event, condition or circumstance is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations or restrictions of, another covenant, shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or event, condition or circumstance exists.

Section 11.23 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Base Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

Section 11.24 Judgment Currency. If any Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, obtains a judgment or judgments against the Borrower or any other Credit Party in a Designated Foreign Currency, the obligations of the Borrower or such Credit Party in respect of any sum adjudged to be due to the Administrative Agents or the Lenders hereunder or under the Notes (the “Judgment Amount”) shall be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by such Administrative Agent of the Judgment Amount in the Designated Foreign Currency, such Administrative Agent, in accordance with normal banking procedures, may purchase Dollars with the Judgment Amount in such Designated Foreign Currency. If the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the amount of Dollars that could have been purchased with the Judgment Amount on the date or dates the Judgment Amount (excluding the portion of the Judgment Amount which has accrued as a result of the failure of the Borrower or any other Credit Party to pay the sum originally due hereunder or under the Notes when it was originally due hereunder or under the Notes) was originally due and owing (the “Original Due Date”) to the Administrative Agents or the Lenders hereunder or under the Notes (the “Loss”), the Borrower and the other Credit Parties each agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such

-123-

Administrative Agents or such Lender, as the case may be, against the Loss, and if the amount of Dollars so purchased exceeds the amount of Dollars that could have been purchased with the Judgment Amount on the Original Due Date, such Administrative Agent or such Lender agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower.

Section 11.25 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender subject to the USA Patriot Act hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

Section 11.26 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 Credit Party to honor all of its obligations under this Agreement in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section, or otherwise under this Agreement, 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 shall remain in full force and effect until this Agreement has been terminated. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 11.27 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

SCHEDULE 1(b)

AUCTION PROCEDURES

This Schedule 1(b) is intended to summarize certain basic terms of the Dutch auction procedures pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.13(e) of the Credit Agreement, of which this Schedule 1(b) is a part. It is not intended to be a definitive statement of all of the terms and conditions of a Dutch Auction, the definitive terms and conditions for which shall be set forth in the applicable offering document. None of the Administrative Agents or any of their respective Affiliates, or any officers, directors, employees, agents or sub-agents of such Persons (together with the Administrative Agents and their respective Affiliates, each an “Agent-Related Person”) makes any recommendation pursuant to any offering document as to whether or not any Lender should sell Term Loans to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to any offering documents, nor shall the decision by an Administrative Agent or any other Agent-Related Person (or any of their affiliates) in its capacity as a Lender to sell its Term Loans to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary be deemed to constitute such a recommendation. Each Lender should make its own decision on whether to sell any of Term Loans and, if it decides to do so, the principal amount of and price to be sought for such Term Loans. In addition, each Lender should consult its own attorney, business advisor or tax advisor as to legal, business, tax and related matters concerning each DutchAuction and the relevant offering documents. Each Lender participating in a Dutch Auction acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such Dutch Auction, (1) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agents or any of their respective Affiliates, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such Auction and (2) none of the Administrative Agents or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against the Administrative Agents and their respective Affiliates. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Schedule 1(b) have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

(A) Notice Procedures. In connection with an Auction, the Auction Party will provide notification to the auction manager (for distribution to the Term Loan Lenders of the relevant Class of Term Loans that are the subject of the Auction (the “Eligible Auction Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent) of the Class and principal amount of Term Loans that will be the subject of the Auction (an “Auction Notice”). Each Auction Notice shall contain (i) the Class of Term Loans that will be the subject of the Auction, (ii) the total cash value of the bid (the “Auction Amount”), in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 with minimum increments of $500,000, (iii) the discount to par, which shall be a range (the “Discount Range”) of percentages of the par principal amount of the Term Loans (i.e., a 5% to 10% Discount Range would represent $50,000 to $100,000 per $1,000,000 principal amount of Term Loans, with a 10% discount being deemed a “higher” discount than 5% for purposes of an Auction) at issue that represents the discounts applied to calculate the range of purchase prices that could be paid in the Auction; provided that the Discount Range may, at the option of the Auction Party, be a single percentage, (iv) the date on which the Auction will conclude, on which date Return Bids will be due at the time provided in the Auction Notice (such time, the “Auction Expiration Time”), as such date and time may be extended upon notice by the Auction Party to the auction manager before any prior Auction Expiration Time, and (v) the identity of the auction manager, and shall indicate if such auction manager is an Affiliate of the Borrower. Each offer to purchase Term Loans in an Auction shall be offered on a pro rata basis to all the Eligible Auction Lenders.

(B) Reply Procedures. In connection with any Auction, each Eligible Auction Lender may, in its sole discretion, participate in such Auction and, if it elects to do so (any such participating Eligible Auction Lender, a “Participating Lender”), shall provide, prior to the Auction Expiration Time, the auction manager with a notice of participation (the “Return Bid”) which shall be in a form and substance prepared

by the Borrower and shall specify (i) a discount to par that must be expressed as a percentage of par principal amount of Term Loans of the relevant Class expressed in percentages (the “Reply Discount”), which must be within the Discount Range, and (ii) a principal amount of Term Loans of the relevant Class, which must be in increments of $500,000, that such Eligible Auction Lender is willing to offer for sale at its Reply Discount (the “Reply Amount”). An Eligible Auction Lender may avoid the minimum increment amount condition solely when submitting a Reply Amount equal to such Eligible Auction Lender’s entire remaining amount of such Term Loans. Eligible Auction Lenders may only submit one Return Bid per Auction but each Return Bid may contain up to three bids, only one of which can result in a Qualifying Bid. In addition to the Return Bid, each Participating Lender must execute and deliver, to be irrevocable during the pendency of the Auction and held in escrow by the auction manager, an assignment agreement pursuant to which such Participating Lender shall make the representations and agreements substantially consistent with the terms of Section 2.13(e)(iii) of the Credit Agreement. Any Eligible Auction Lender that fails to submit a Return Bid at or prior to the Auction Expiration Time shall be deemed to have declined to participate in the Auction.

(C) Acceptance Procedures. Based on the Reply Discounts and Reply Amounts received by the auction manager, the auction manager, with the consent of the Auction Party, will, within ten (10) Business Days of the Auction Notice (or such other time agreed by the Borrower), determine the applicable discount (the “Applicable Discount”) for the Auction, which will be the highest Reply Discount at which the Auction Party can complete the Auction at the Auction Amount; provided that, in the event that the Reply Amounts are insufficient to allow the Auction Party to complete a purchase of the entire Auction Amount, the Auction Party shall either, at its election, (i) withdraw the Auction or (ii) complete the Auction as set forth below. Unless withdrawn, the Auction Party shall notify the Participating Lenders of the Applicable Discount no later than one (1) Business Day after it is determined (the “Applicable Discount Notice”). The Auction Party shall, within three (3) Business Days of the Applicable Discount Notice, purchase Term Loans from each Participating Lender with a Reply Discount that is equal to or higher than the Applicable Discount (“Qualifying Bids”) at a discount to par equal to the Reply Discount of such Participating Lender, with the applicable Term Loans of the Participating Lender(s) with the highest Reply Discount being purchased first and then in descending order from such highest Reply Discount to and including the applicable Term Loans of the Participating Lenders with a Reply Discount equal to the Applicable Discount (the “Applicable Order of Purchase”); provided that if the aggregate proceeds required to purchase all Term Loans of the relevant Class subject to Qualifying Bids would exceed the Auction Amount for such Auction, the Auction Party shall purchase such Term Loans of the Participating Lenders in the Applicable Order of Purchase, but with the Term Loans of Participating Lenders with Reply Discounts equal to the Applicable Discount being purchased pro rata until the Auction Amount has been so expended on such purchases. If a Participating Lender has submitted a Return Bid containing multiple bids at different Reply Discounts, only the bid with the highest Reply Discount that is equal to or more than the Applicable Discount will be deemed the Qualifying Bid of such Participating Lender. In no event shall any purchase of Term Loans in an Auction be made at a Reply Discount lower than the Applicable Discount for such Auction.

(D) Additional Procedures. Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Auction Party may withdraw or modify an Auction only prior to the delivery of the Applicable Discount Notice (and if any Auction is withdrawn or modified, notice thereof shall be delivered to the Term Loan Administrative Agent and the Eligible Auction Lenders no later than the first Business Day after such withdrawal). Furthermore, in connection with any Auction, upon submission by a Participating Lender of the relevant Class of a Qualifying Bid, such Term Loan Lender will be obligated to sell the entirety or its allocable portion of the Reply Amount, as the case may be, at the Applicable Discount.

(E) Any failure by such Credit Party or such Restricted Subsidiary to make any prepayment to a Lender, pursuant to this definition shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement or otherwise.

SCHEDULE 5.14

ERISA

The guarantee from Colfax Corporation in favor of the trustees of the Warner UK Pension Scheme has not been re-registered by the plan’s third-party plan administrators annually since 2012 and has therefore not been taken into account in the assessment of the Pension Protection Fund (PPF) annual risk levy. However, the Warner Pension Scheme annual return has also incorrectly stated Colfax Corporation as its sponsoring employer, rather than the correct company CLFX Sub Ltd and the levy has therefore been based on the stronger parent company balance sheet. The PPF is now aware of the error regarding the employer and has invoiced the Scheme a retrospective additional premium of £165,679, which was paid from Scheme assets in August 2017. The administrators are currently appealing to PPF. The administrators have been asked to consider how they will compensate the Scheme although administrator liability has not yet been established with certainty. CIRCOR understands that the administrator’s appeal is pending.

Multiemployer Plans and Multiple Employer Plans

I.A.M. and A. Labor Management Pension Fund

Post-Retirement Welfare Plans

Colfax Fluid Handling Post-Retirement Medical and Life Insurance Plan

From time to time, healthcare coverage subsidies are provided to separated employees during their severance period/garden leave.
