(g)           In the event that Borrower accepts the offer(s) contained in one (1) or more Bid Rate Quotes in accordance with paragraph (e), the Ratable Loan Bank(s) making such offer(s) shall make a Bid Rate Loan in the accepted amount (as allocated, if necessary, pursuant to paragraph (f)) on the date specified therefor, in accordance with the procedures specified in Section 2.05.

(h)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Ratable Loan Bank shall be required to fund its Pro Rata Share of the Available Ratable Commitment in accordance with Section 2.01(b) despite the fact that any Ratable Loan Bank’s Ratable Loan Commitment may have been or may be exceeded as a result of such Ratable Loan Bank’s making Bid Rate Loans.

(i)            A Ratable Loan Bank who is notified that it has been selected to make a Bid Rate Loan as provided above may designate its Designated Lender (if any) to fund such Bid Rate Loan on its behalf, as described in Section 12.16.

SECTION 2.03. Swingline Loan Subfacility.

(a)           Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.03, each Swingline Lender, in its individual capacity, agrees to make certain revolving credit loans in Dollars to Borrower (each a “Swingline Loan” and, collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) from time to time during the term hereof in an amount equal to its pro rata sharePro Rata Share of the Swingline Loans requested by Borrower in its notice of borrowing described in clause (b) below; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000) (the “Swingline Commitment”); provided, further, that (i) the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding to any Swingline Lender shall not exceed the lesser of (A) Twelve Million Five-Hundred Thousand Dollars ($12,500,000) and (B) such Swingline Lender’s Ratable Loan Commitment minus its Ratable Loan Credit Exposure and (ii) the Total Ratable Credit Exposure plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Bid Rate Loans shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Ratable Loan Commitments. Subject to the limitations set forth herein, any amounts repaid in respect of Swingline Loans may be reborrowed.

(b)           Swingline Borrowings.

(1)           Notice of Borrowing. With respect to any Swingline Loan, Borrower shall give Swingline Lenders and Administrative Agent notice in writing which is received by Swingline Lenders and Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed date of such Swingline Loan (and confirmed by telephone by such time), specifying (A) that a Swingline Loan is being requested, (B) the amount of such Swingline Loan, (C) the proposed date of such Swingline Loan, which shall be a Banking Day and (D) stating that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing both before and after giving effect to such Swingline Loan. Such notice shall be irrevocable.

(2)           Minimum Amounts. Each Swingline Loan shall be at least Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) and, or an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000).

(3)           Repayment of Swingline Loans. Each Swingline Loan shall be due and payable on the earliest of (A) five (5) Banking Days from and including the date of such Swingline Loan or (B) the Ratable Loan Maturity Date. If, and to the extent, any Swingline Loans shall be outstanding on the date any Ratable Loan is advanced, such Swingline Loans shall first be repaid from the proceeds of such Ratable Loan prior to the disbursement of the same to Borrower. If, and to the extent, a Ratable Loan is not requested prior to the earliest of the Ratable Loan Maturity Date, the last calendar day of the month in which such Swingline Loan is made, or the end of the five (5) Banking Day period after such Swingline Loan was made, or unless Borrower shall have notified Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lenders prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third (3rd) Banking Day after such Swingline Loan was made that Borrower intends to reimburse Swingline Lender for the amount of such Swingline Loan with funds other than proceeds of the Ratable Loans, Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Ratable Loan comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the amount of the applicable Swingline Loan then outstanding, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay such Swingline Loan to Swingline Lenders. In addition, if (x) Borrower does not repay a Swingline Loan on or prior to the end of such five (5) Banking Day period, or (y) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred during such five (5) Banking Day period, a Swingline Lender may, at any time, in its sole discretion, by written notice to Borrower and Administrative Agent, demand repayment of all Swingline Loans by way of a Ratable Loan, in which case Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Ratable Loan comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the amount of such Swingline Loans then outstanding, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay such Swingline Loans to Swingline Lenders. Any Ratable Loan which is deemed requested by Borrower in accordance with this Section 2.03(b)(3) is hereinafter referred to as a “Mandatory Borrowing”. Each Bank hereby irrevocably agrees to make Ratable Loans promptly upon receipt of notice from a Swingline Lender or Administrative Agent of any such deemed request for a Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentences and on the date such notice is received by such Bank (or the next Banking Day if such notice is received after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time)) notwithstanding (I) the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount of Ratable Loans otherwise required hereunder, (II) whether any conditions specified in Section 4.02 are then satisfied, (III) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (IV) failure of any such deemed request for a Ratable Loan to be made by the time otherwise required in Section 2.05, (V) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing (provided that such date must be a Banking Day), or (VI) any termination of the Loan Commitments immediately prior to such Mandatory Borrowing or contemporaneously therewith; provided, however, that no Bank shall be obligated to make Ratable Loans in respect of a Mandatory Borrowing if a Default or an Event of Default then exists and the applicable Swingline Loan was made by Swingline Lenders without receipt of a written notice of borrowing in the form specified in Section 2.03(b)(1) or after Administrative Agent has delivered a notice of Default or Event of Default which has not been rescinded.

(4)           Purchase of Participations. In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to Borrower), then each Ratable Loan Bank hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payment received from Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from Swingline Lenders such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause each such Ratable Loan Bank to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon its Pro Rata Share (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Loan Commitments), provided that (A) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans with respect to any participation shall be for the account of Swingline Lenders until but excluding the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, and (B) in the event of a delay between the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred and the time any purchase of a participation pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Ratable Loan Bank shall be required to pay to Swingline Lenders interest on the principal amount of such participation for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate, for the two (2) Banking Days after the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Base Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Ratable Loan Bank shall be obligated to purchase a participation in any Swingline Loan if a Default or an Event of Default then exists and such Swingline Loan was made by Swingline Lenders without receipt of a written notice of borrowing in the form specified in Section 2.03(b)(1) or after Administrative Agent has delivered a notice of Default or Event of Default which has not been rescinded.

(c)           Interest Rate. Each Swingline Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Swingline Loan is made until the date it is repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans.

(d)           Replacement and Resignation of Swingline Lender. Any Swingline Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among Borrower, Administrative Agent, the replaced Swingline Lender and the successor Swingline Lender. Administrative Agent shall notify the Ratable Loan Banks of any such replacement of a Swingline Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, Borrower shall pay all unpaid interest accrued for the account of the replaced Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Swingline Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Swingline Lender, or to such successor and all previous Swingline Lenders and all other Swingline Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of a Swingline Lender hereunder, the replaced Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to its replacement, but shall not be required to make additional Swingline Loans. Subject to the appointment and acceptance by Administrative Agent and Borrower of a successor Swingline Lender, any Swingline Lender may resign as a Swingline Lender at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to Administrative Agent, Borrower and the Ratable Loan Banks, in which case, such Swingline Lender shall be replaced as provided above.

SECTION 2.04. Advances, Generally. The amount of each advance hereunder shall, subject to Section 2.13, be at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (unless less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) is available for disbursement pursuant to the terms hereof at the time of any advance, in which case the amount of such advance shall be equal to such remaining availability) and in an integral multiple of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). Additional restrictions on the amounts and timing of, and conditions to the making of, advances of Bid Rate Loans and Swingline Loans are set forth in Sections 2.02 and 2.03, respectively.

Each advance shall be subject, in addition to the limitations and conditions applicable to advances of the Loans generally, to Administrative Agent’s receipt, in accordance with the timing requirements of Section 2.05 with respect to requests for advances, a Notice of Borrowing.

SECTION 2.05. Procedures for Advances. In the case of advances of Ratable Loans and Term Loans, Borrower shall submit to Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing for each advance, stating the date of the Loan, the amount of the Loan, the type of Loan and, in the case of LIBOR Loans, the initial Interest Period for such LIBOR Loans, no later than 11:00 a12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date, in the case of advances of Base Rate Loans, which is the proposed date of such Base Rate Loan, and, in the case of advances of LIBOR Loans, which is three (3) Banking Days prior to the date such advance is to be made. In the case of advances of Bid Rate Loans, Borrower shall submit a Bid Rate Quote Request at the time specified in Section 2.02. In the case of advances of Swingline Loans, Borrower shall submit a notice of borrowing at the time specified in Section 2.03. Administrative Agent, upon its receipt of the Notice of Borrowing, will so notify the Ratable Loan Banks by facsimile. Not later than 11:30 a.m. (New York time) on the date of each advance (or 1:002:00 p.m. (New York time) in the case of a Base Rate Loan for which Borrower has made a Loan request on such date), each applicable Bank shall, through its Applicable Lending Office and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, make the amount to be advanced by it on such day available to Administrative Agent, at Administrative Agent’s Office and in immediately available funds for the account of Borrower. The amount so received by Administrative Agent shall, subject to the conditions of this Agreement, be made available to Borrower, in immediately available funds, by Administrative Agent’sAgent to an account designated by Borrower.

SECTION 2.06. Interest Periods; Renewals. In the case of the LIBOR Loans, Borrower shall select an Interest Period in a Notice of Borrowing of any duration in accordance with the definition of Interest Period in Section 1.01, subject to the following limitations: (1) no Interest Period may extend beyond the applicable Maturity Date for that type of Loan; (2) if an Interest Period would end on a day which is not a Banking Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the next Banking Day, unless such Banking Day would fall in the next calendar month, in which event such Interest Period shall end on the immediately preceding Banking Day; (3) only eight (8) discrete segments of a Ratable Loan Bank’s Ratable Loan bearing interest at a LIBOR Interest Rate for a designated Interest Period pursuant to a particular Election, Conversion or Continuation, may be outstanding at any one time (each such segment of each Ratable Loan Bank’s Ratable Loan corresponding to a proportionate segment of each of the other Ratable Loan Banks’ Ratable Loans) and (4) only five (5) discrete segments of a Term Loan Bank’s applicable Term Loans bearing interest at a LIBOR Interest Rate for a designated Interest Period pursuant to a particular Election, Conversion or Continuation, may be outstanding at any one time (each such segment of each Term Loan Bank’s applicable Term A-1 Loans and Term A-2 Loans corresponding to a proportionate segment of each of the other Term Loan Banks’ applicable Term A-1 Loans and Term A-2 Loans).

Upon notice to Administrative Agent as provided in Section 2.14, Borrower may Continue any LIBOR Loan on the last day of the Interest Period of the same or different duration in accordance with the limitations provided above.

The parties understand that during a Leverage Pricing Period the applicable interest rate for the Obligations and certain fees set forth herein may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other information to be provided or certified to the Banks by Borrower (the “Borrower Information”). If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was incorrect (for whatever reason, including without limitation because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by Borrower) at the time it was delivered to Administrative Agent, and if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period during a Leverage Pricing Period were lower than they should have been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such interest rate and such fees for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to Administrative Agent, for the account of each Bank, within 5 Banking Days of receipt of such written notice. Any recalculation of interest or fees required by this provision shall survive for a period of one year following the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of Administrative Agent’s, a Fronting Bank’s, or any Bank’s other rights under this Agreement.

Borrower shall pay interest to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Bank, on the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of the Loans, at a rate per annum as follows: (1) for Base Rate Loans at a rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; (2) for LIBOR Loans at a rate equal to the applicable LIBOR Interest Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and (3) for Bid Rate Loans at a rate equal to the applicable LIBOR Bid Rate. Any principal amount not paid when due (when scheduled, at acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest thereafter, payable on demand, at the Default Rate and, with respect to any other Obligation that is not paid when due (when scheduled, at acceleration or otherwise), shall bear interest thereafter, payable on demand, at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.

The interest rate on Base Rate Loans shall change when the Base Rate changes. Interest on Base Rate Loans, LIBOR Loans and Bid Rate Loans shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted under applicable law.

SECTION 2.08. Fees.

(a)           Borrower shall, commencing as of the Closing Date, pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Ratable Loan Bank a facility fee computed, on the daily Ratable Loan Commitment of such Bank, by multiplying the aggregate Ratable Loan Commitments on such day by an amount equal to the daily Facility Fee, calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed. The accrued facility fee shall be due and payable in arrears on the first Banking Day of January, April, July and October of each year, commencing on the first such date after the Closing Date, and upon the Ratable Loan Maturity Date (as may be accelerated) or earlier termination of the Ratable Loan Commitments.

The accrued unused fee shall be due and payable in arrears on the first Banking Day of January, April, July and October of each year, commencing on the first such date after the 91^st day following the Closing Date, and upon the Final Term A-1 Loan Availability Date (as may be accelerated) or earlier termination of the Term A-1 Loan Commitments.

(c)           Borrower shall, commencing on the 91^st day following the Closing Date, pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Term A-2 Bank an unused fee equal to the product, computed on a daily basis, of (x) the unused portion of the Total Term A-2 Loan Commitment then in effect and (y) the per annum rate of 0.150%, calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed. The accrued unused fee shall be due and payable in arrears on the first Banking Day of January, April, July and October of each year, commencing on the first such date after the 91^st day following the Closing Date, and upon the Final Term A-2 Loan Availability Date (as may be accelerated) or earlier termination of the Term A-2 Loan Commitments.

At the request of any Bank, any Bid Rate Loans made by such Bank under this Agreement shall be evidenced by a promissory note of Borrower substantially in the form of EXHIBIT B-2, duly completed and executed by Borrower, payable to such Bank for the account of its Applicable Lending Office (each such note, as the same may hereafter be amended, modified, extended, severed, assigned, substituted, renewed or restated from time to time, the “Bid Rate Loan Note”). At the request of a Term Loan Bank, the tranche of Term Loans made by such Term Loan Bank under this Agreement shall be evidenced by a promissory note of Borrower in the form of EXHIBIT B-3 duly completed and executed by Borrower, in a principal amount equal to such Term Loan Bank’s Term A-1 Loan Commitment or Term A-2 Loan Commiment, as applicable, payable to such Term Loan Bank for the account of its Applicable Lending Office (each such note, as the same may hereafter be amended, modified, extended, severed, assigned, substituted, renewed or restated from time to time, including any substitute note pursuant to Section 3.07 or 12.05, a “Term Loan Note”). A particular Bank’s Ratable Loan Note, Term Loan Note and Bid Rate Loan Note are referred to individually or collectively in this Agreement, as the context may require, as such Bank’s “Note”; all such Ratable Loan Notes, Term Loan Notes and Bid Rate Loan Notes are referred to collectively in this Agreement as the “Notes”.

The Ratable Loans shall mature, and all outstanding principal and accrued interest and Obligations in respect thereof shall be paid in full, on the Ratable Loan Maturity Date, or, in the case of Swingline Loans, in accordance with Section 2.03, in either case as the same may be accelerated in accordance with this Agreement. The outstanding principal amount of each Bid Rate Loan evidenced by each Bid Rate Loan Note, and all accrued interest and other sums with respect thereto, shall become due and payable to the Bank making such Bid Rate Loan at the earlier of the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto or the Ratable Loan Maturity Date, as the same may be accelerated in accordance with this Agreement. The Term A-1 Loans shall mature, and all outstanding principal and accrued interest and Obligations in respect thereof shall be paid in full, on the Term A-1 Loan Maturity Date, or as the same may be accelerated in accordance with this Agreement. The Term A-2 Loans shall mature, and all outstanding principal and accrued interest and other Obligations in respect thereof shall be paid in full, on the Term A-2 Loan Maturity Date, as the same may be accelerated in accordance with this Agreement.

The date, amount, interest rate, type and duration of Interest Periods (if applicable) of each Loan made by each Bank to Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Bank and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Bank shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Bank and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

In connection with a Refinancing Mortgage, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent, a mortgage note, payable to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Banks receiving the benefit of, and which shall be secured by, the applicable Refinancing Mortgage. Such note shall be in such form as shall be requested by Borrower, subject to Administrative Agent’s reasonable approval. Each reference in this Agreement to the “Notes” shall be deemed to refer to and include any or all of such mortgage notes, as the context may require.

SECTION 2.10. Prepayments.

(a)           Without prepayment premium or penalty (other than any applicable Prepayment Premium) but subject to Section 3.05, Borrower may, upon same Banking Day’s notice to Administrative Agent in the case of the Base Rate Loans, and at least three (3) Banking Days’ notice to Administrative Agent in the case of LIBOR Loans, which notice shall have been received not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on such applicable date, prepay in whole or in part the Ratable Loans or any of the Term Loans; provided, that (1) any partial prepayment under the foregoing shall be in integral multiples of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and (2) each prepayment under the foregoing shall include, at Administrative Agent’s option, all interest accrued on the amount of principal prepaid to (but excluding) the date of prepayment. Borrower shall have the right to prepay Bid Rate Loans only if so provided in the Bid Rate LoanQuote Request, and otherwise with the consent of the Ratable Loan Bank or the Designated Lender that funded the Bid Rate Loan that Borrower desires to prepay. Borrower may, from time to time on any Banking Day so long as prior notice is given to Administrative Agent and Swingline Lender no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day on which Borrower intends to make such prepayment, prepay any Swingline Loans in whole or in part in amounts aggregating at least One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), and in an integral multiple of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (or, if less, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swingline Loans then outstanding) by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment by initiating a wire transfer of the principal and interest on the Swingline Loans no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on such day and Borrower shall deliver a federal reference number evidencing such wire transfer to Administrative Agent as soon as available thereafter on such day.

(b)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that Borrower makes a prepayment of principal of all or any portion of the Term A-2 Loans (whether voluntary or otherwise) prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Term A-2 Banks, a prepayment premium (the “Prepayment Premium”) equal to the percentage of the principal amount so prepaid set forth in the following table corresponding to the period during which such prepayment is made. Such fee shall be due and payable on the date of any such prepayment:

The Loan Parties and the Term A-2 Banks expressly agree as follows:

(x)           (A)          All amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.10 are reasonable and are the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) all such amounts shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Banks and the Loan Parties giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay all such amounts; (D) the Loan Parties, Administrative Agent and the Term A-2 Banks shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to herein; (E) their agreement to pay all such amounts is a material inducement to the Banks to make the Loans, and (F) such amounts represents a good faith, reasonable estimate and calculation of the lost profits or damages of Administrative Agent and the Term A-2 Banks and it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual amount of damages to Administrative Agent and the Term A-2 Banks or profits lost by Administrative Agent and the Banks as a result of the occurrence of the events described in such Sections.

(y)           Any amounts payable in accordance with this Section 2.10 shall be presumed to be equal to the liquidated damages sustained by the Term A-2 Banks as the result of the occurrence of the events described in this Section and the Loan Parties agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. THE LOAN PARTIES EXPRESSLY WAIVE TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF ANY SUCH AMOUNTS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACCELERATION.

SECTION 2.11. Method of Payment.

Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Notes not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date when due in Dollars to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Borrower shall deliver federal reference number(s) evidencing the applicable wire transfer(s) to Administrative Agent as soon as available thereafter on such day. Administrative Agent will thereafter, on the day of its receipt of each such payment(s), cause to be distributed to each Bank (1) such Bank’s appropriate share (based upon the respective outstanding principal amounts and interest due under the Loans of the Banks) of the payments of principal and interest in like funds for the account of such Bank’s Applicable Lending Office; and (2) fees payable to such Bank by Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event Administrative Agent fails to pay such amounts to such Bank within one BusinessBanking Day of receipt of such amounts, Administrative Agent shall pay interest on such amounts until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect.

Except to the extent provided in this Agreement, whenever any payment to be made under this Agreement or under the Notes is due on any day other than a Banking Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Banking Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of interest and other fees, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.12. Elections, Conversions or Continuation of Loans.

Subject to the provisions of Article III and Sections 2.06 and 2.13, Borrower shall have the right to Elect to have all or a portion of any advance of the Ratable Loans or Term Loans be LIBOR Loans, to Convert Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans, to Convert LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans, or to Continue LIBOR Loans as LIBOR Loans, at any time or from time to time, provided that: (1) Borrower shall give Administrative Agent notice of each such Election, Conversion or Continuation as provided in Section 2.14; and (2) a LIBOR Loan may be Continued or Converted only on the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Election, Continuation and Conversion shall be applicable to each Bank’s applicable Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of such Loans. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Banks, may require, by notice to Borrower, that (i) no outstanding Loan may be converted to or continued as a LIBOR Loan and (ii) unless repaid, each Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.13. Minimum Amounts.

With respect to the Ratable Loans and Term Loans as a whole, each Election and each Conversion thereof shall be in an amount at least equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and in integral multiples of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) or such lesser amount as shall be available or outstanding, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.14. Certain Notices Regarding Elections, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

Notices by Borrower to Administrative Agent of Elections, Conversions and Continuations of LIBOR Loans shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only if received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the number of Banking Days prior to the date of the relevant Election, Conversion or Continuation specified below:

Promptly following its receipt of any such notice, Administrative Agent shall so advise the applicable Banks by facsimile. Each such notice of Election shall specify the portion of the amount of the advance that is to be LIBOR Loans (subject to Section 2.13) and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto (subject to Section 2.06); each such notice of Conversion shall specify the LIBOR Loans or Base Rate Loans to be Converted; and each such notice of Conversion or Continuation shall specify the date of Conversion or Continuation (which shall be a Banking Day), the amount thereof (subject to Section 2.13) and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto (subject to Section 2.06). In the event that Borrower fails to Elect to have any portion of an advance of the Ratable Loans or Term Loans be LIBOR Loans, the portion of such advance for which a LIBOR Loan Election is not made shall constitute Base Rate Loans. Subject to the terms of the last sentence of Section 2.12, in the event that Borrower fails to Continue LIBOR Loans within the time period and as otherwise provided in this Section, such LIBOR Loans will be automatically Continued as LIBOR Loans with an Interest Period of one month on the last day of the then current applicable Interest Period for such LIBOR Loans.

SECTION 2.15. Payments Generally. If any Bank shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(4), 2.17(h) or 10.05, then Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lenders or the Fronting Banks to satisfy such Bank’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Bank under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by Administrative Agent in its discretion.

SECTION 2.16. Changes of Loan Commitments; Incremental Increases.

(a)           At any time, Borrower shall have the right, without premium or penalty, to terminate any unused Loan Commitments existing as of the date of such termination, in whole or in part, from time to time, provided that: (1) Borrower shall give notice of each such termination to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each of the Banks holding such Loan Commitments) no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date which is three (3) Banking Days prior to the effectiveness of such termination (it being understood that any notice of termination may be conditioned upon the consummation of any financing or acquisition or similar transaction and, to the extent such condition is not satisfied by the effective date specified therein, such notice of termination may be revoked or the effective date specified therein may be delayed); (2) (x) the Ratable Loan Commitments of each of the Ratable Loan Banks must be terminated (and, in the case of a partial termination, on a pro rata basis) (taking into account, however, Section 2.02(h)) simultaneously with those of the other Ratable Loan Banks, (y) the Term A-1 Loan Commitments of each of the Term A-1 Banks must be terminated (and, in the case of a partial termination, on a pro rata basis) (taking into account, however, Section 2.02(h)) simultaneously with those of the other Term A-1 Banks, and (z) the Term A-2 Loan Commitments of each of the Term A-2 Banks must be terminated (and, in the case of a partial termination, on a pro rata basis) (taking into account, however, Section 2.02(h)) simultaneously with those of the other Term A-2 Banks; and (3) each partial termination of the Loan Commitments in the aggregate shall be in an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000). A reduction of the unused Ratable Loan Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.16(a) shall not effect a reduction in the Swingline Commitments (unless so elected by Borrower) until the aggregate unused Ratable Loan Commitments have been reduced to an amount equal to or less than the Swingline Commitments.

(b)          The Loan Commitments and the Swingline Commitment, to the extent terminated pursuant to Section 2.16(a), may not be reinstated.

(c)           Unless a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower, by written notice to Administrative Agent, may request to increase the Ratable Loan Commitments, Term A-1 Loan Commitment or Term A-2 Loan Commitment or enter into one or more other tranches of revolving loans or term loans (each an “Incremental Increase”), in each case by/in an amount not less than Twenty Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000) per request and not more than Six Hundred Million Dollars ($600,000,000) in the aggregate (such that the aggregate amount of the Ratable Loan Commitments, the unused Term Loan Commitments and the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans after any such Incremental Increase shall never exceed Two Billion Dollars ($2,000,000,000)); provided that (a) any such request shall be accompanied by a certificate from Borrower confirming that the representations and warranties of Borrower and each other Loan Party contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of the requested Incremental Increase (except in those cases where such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date or is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Change” or similar language (which shall be true and correct in all respects as qualified therein) and except for changes in factual circumstances permitted hereunder), (b) any Bank which is a party to this Agreement prior to such request for an Incremental Increase, at its sole discretion, may elect to provide a portion of such Incremental Increase but shall not have any obligation to provide any portion of such Incremental Increase (and it being agreed and understood that Borrower or the arrangers of such Incremental Increase shall not be required to offer to or solicit from any existing Bank the opportunity to provide a portion of such Incremental Increase), and (c) to the extent that a Bank does not elect, or is not offered, to provide any part of a requested Incremental Increase, the Lead Arrangers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to locate additional Qualified Institutions willing to hold commitments for the requested Incremental Increase, and Borrower may also identify additional Qualified Institutions willing to hold commitments for the requested Incremental Increase; provided however that Administrative Agent and, in the case of an Incremental Increase in the aggregate Ratable Loan Commitments, each Swingline Lender and each Fronting Bank, shall have the right to approve any such additional Qualified Institutions, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event that the Banks or additional Qualified Institutions commit to any such Incremental Increase, the Loan Commitments of the Banks shall be increased (as applicable), the Pro Rata Shares of the Banks shall be adjusted, new Notes shall be issued, Borrower shall make such borrowings and repayments as shall be necessary to effect the reallocation of the Loans so that the Loans are held by the Banks in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares after giving effect to such Incremental Increase, and other changes shall be made to the Loan Documents as may be necessary to reflect the aggregate amount, if any, by which the Banks or additional Qualified Institutions have agreed to increase their respective Loan Commitments or make new Loan Commitments in response to Borrower’s request for an Incremental Increase pursuant to this Section 2.16(c), in each case without the consent of the Banks other than those Banks providing such Incremental Increase. The fees payable by Borrower upon any such Incremental Increase shall be agreed upon by the Lead Arrangers and Borrower at the time of such increase. Any Incremental Increase (i) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the applicable Loans hereunder, (ii) shall not mature earlier than, (A) with respect to an Incremental Increase of the Ratable Loan Commitments or in the form of a new tranche of revolving loans, the applicable Maturity Date for the Ratable Loan Commitments hereunder, and (B) with respect to an Incremental Increase of the Term A-1 Loan Commitments or Term A-2 Loan Commitments, the applicable Maturity Date for such respective Term Loans, or (C)provided that no such limitation shall apply with respect to an Incremental Increase in the form of a new tranche of term loans, the applicable Maturity Date for the Term A-2 Loans) and (iii) all other terms of such Incremental Increase (other than the maturity date and matters in relation to pricing and fees, including, without limitation, interest rate, facility fees, commitment fees, prepayment premiums, upfront fees, arranger fees, or other similar fees applicable to such Incremental Increase) that apply prior to the Maturity Date of the applicable Loans, if not consistent with the terms of the applicable Loans hereunder, shall be reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent. In connection with any Incremental Increase pursuant to this Section 2.16, any Bank becoming a party hereto shall (1) execute such documents and agreements as Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (2) in the case of any Bank that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America, provide to Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other information as shall be necessary for Administrative Agent to comply with “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation, the Patriot Act.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 2.16(c) shall constitute or be deemed to constitute an agreement by any Bank to increase its Loan Commitment hereunder.

SECTION 2.17. Letters of Credit.

(a)           Borrower, by notice to Administrative Agent and the applicable Fronting Bank, may request, in lieu of advances of proceeds of the Ratable Loans, that such Fronting Bank issue unconditional, irrevocable standby letters of credit in Dollars (each, a “Letter of Credit”) for the account of Borrower or its designee (which shall be an Affiliate of Borrower) (it being understood that the issuance of a Letter of Credit for the account of a designee shall not in any way relieve Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder), payable by sight drafts, for such beneficiaries and with such other terms as Borrower shall specify. Unless the applicable Fronting Bank has received written notice from Administrative Agent, not less than one (1) Banking Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 4.02 shall not have been satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Fronting Bank, on the requested date, shall issue a Letter of Credit for the account of Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Fronting Bank’s usual and customary business practices. Promptly upon issuance of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Fronting Bank shall notify Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Banks by telephone or by facsimile. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Fronting Banks shall have no obligation hereunder to issue, and shall not issue, any Letter of Credit the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (i) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country or (ii) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement.

(b)           To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Fronting Bank) to the Fronting Bank or Fronting Banks which are being requested to issue (or has or have issued, in the case of an amendment, renewal or extension) such Letter of Credit and Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, but in any event no less than three Banking Days or such shorter period as the applicable Fronting Bank shall agree to) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Banking Day), the identity of the Fronting Bank(s) selected to issue such Letter of Credit, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (e) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Fronting Bank, Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Fronting Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit; provided that the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail if there is an inconsistency between this Agreement and such letter of credit application. Borrower and the Fronting Banks shall use reasonable efforts, to the extent practical, to cause any Letters of Credit to be issued by the Fronting Banks on a proportionate basis in accordance with their respective Letter of Credit Commitments, although, for the avoidance of doubt, no single Letter of Credit will be required to be issued by more than one Fronting Bank unless the amount of such Letter of Credit will exceed the available Letter of Credit Commitment of the applicable Fronting Bank. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) (x) the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the applicable Fronting Bank at such time plus (y) the aggregate amount of all drawings under Letters of Credit issued by such Fronting Bank that have not yet been reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower (including, for clarity, by means of advances of Loans pursuant to this Agreement) at such time shall not exceed its Letter of Credit Commitment (unless agreed to by such Fronting Bank), (ii) the aggregate LC Exposure at such time shall not exceed $150,000,000 (as such amount may be reduced by written notice from Borrower consistent with Section 2.16(a) so long as the outstanding Letters of Credit do not exceed such reduced amount), (iii) the Total Ratable Credit Exposure plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Bid Rate Loans shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Ratable Loan Commitments, and (iv) the amount of such Letter of Credit shall not exceed the excess of the Fronting Bank’s Loan Commitment minus the sum of the outstanding principal amount of such Fronting Bank’s Ratable Loans, Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure at such time. Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Fronting Bank with the consent of such Fronting Bank; provided that Borrower shall not reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Fronting Bank if, after giving effect of such reduction, the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) of this paragraph (b) shall not be satisfied. The amount of each Letter of Credit issued and outstanding shall effect a reduction, by an equal amount, of the Available Ratable Commitment as provided in Section 2.01(b) (such reduction to be allocated to each Ratable Loan Bank’s Ratable Loan Commitment ratably in accordance with the Banks’ respective Pro Rata Shares).

(c)           The amount of each Letter of Credit shall be further subject to the conditions and limitations applicable to amounts of advances set forth in Section 2.04 and except as otherwise provided in clause (b) above, the procedures for the issuance of each Letter of Credit shall be the same as the procedures applicable to the making of advances as set forth in the first sentence of Section 2.05.

(d)           The Fronting Bank’s issuance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to Borrower’s satisfaction of all conditions precedent to its entitlement to an advance of proceeds of the Loans.

(e)           Each Letter of Credit shall, unless approved by Administrative Agent and the applicable Fronting Bank, (i) expire no later than one (1) year after the date of its issuance (without regard to any automatic renewal provisions thereof), and (ii) be in a minimum amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), or such lesser amount approved by the Fronting Bank. In no event shall a Letter of Credit expire later than the first anniversary of the Ratable Loan Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, with the approval of Administrative Agent and each Fronting Bank with a Letter of Credit then outstanding, any Letters of Credit are issued and outstanding on the date that is fourteen (14) days prior to the Ratable Loan Maturity Date (any such Letter of Credit being referred to as an “Extended Letter of Credit”), Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent on such date by wire transfer of immediately available funds a cash deposit in the amount of such Letters of Credit in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17(i). To the extent Borrower fails to provide such cash deposit with respect to any Extended Letter of Credit by the date that is fourteen (14) days prior to the Ratable Loan Maturity Date, such failure shall be treated as a drawing under such Extended Letter of Credit (in an amount equal to the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit), which shall be reimbursed (or participations therein funded) by the Banks in accordance with Section 2.17(h), with the proceeds being utilized to provide such cash deposit for such Extended Letter of Credit. Such funds shall be held by Administrative Agent and applied to repay the amount of each drawing under such Letters of Credit on or after the Ratable Loan Maturity Date. Such funds, with any interest earned thereon, will be returned to Borrower (and may be returned from time to time with respect to any applicable Letter of Credit) on the earlier of (a) the date that the applicable Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit expire in accordance with their terms; and (b) the date that the applicable Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit are cancelled; provided that upon the expiration or cancellation of an Extended Letter of Credit for which the Ratable Loan Banks reimbursed (or funded participations in) a drawing deemed to have occurred as provided in this Section 2.17 but in respect of which the Ratable Loan Banks have not otherwise received payment for the amount so reimbursed or funded, Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Ratable Loan Banks the amount of such funds so reimbursed or funded for such Extended Letter of Credit, pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid reimbursements or funded participations of the Ratable Loan Banks in respect of such Extended Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall not be required to, and shall not, return any such funds to the extent doing so would result in the amount of such funds being less than the stated amount of all Extended Letters of Credit then outstanding.

(f)            In connection with, and as a further condition to the issuance of, each Letter of Credit, Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Fronting Bank an application for the Letter of Credit in such form, and together with such other documents, opinions and assurances, as the Fronting Bank shall reasonably require.

(g)           In connection with each Letter of Credit, Borrower hereby covenants to pay (i) to Administrative Agent, quarterly in arrears (on the first Banking Day of each calendar quarter following the issuance of such Letter of Credit), a fee, payable to Administrative Agent for the account of the Ratable Loan Banks, computed daily (calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed) on the face amount of such Letter of Credit issued and outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the “Banks’ L/C Fee Rate” (as hereinafter defined) and (ii) to the Fronting Bank, payable quarterly in arrears, a fee, payable to the Fronting Bank for its own account, computed daily (calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed) as mutually agreed between Borrower and such Fronting Bank. Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for the collection of the fee for any Letter of Credit that is payable to the Fronting Bank. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Banks’ L/C Fee Rate” shall mean, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a rate per annum (calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed) equal to the Applicable Margin for Ratable Loans that are LIBOR Loans minus 0.125% and, in the event an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a rate per annum (calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed) equal to 2%. It is understood and agreed that the last installment of the fees provided for in this paragraph (g) with respect to any particular Letter of Credit shall be due and payable on the first day of the calendar quarter following the surrender or cancellation, of such Letter of Credit.

(h)           The Fronting Bank shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of any drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by such Fronting Bank. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, immediately upon notice from Administrative Agent of any drawing under a Letter of Credit, each Ratable Loan Bank shall, notwithstanding the existence of a Default or Event of Default or the non-satisfaction of any conditions precedent to the making of an advance of the Loans, advance proceeds of its Ratable Loan, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such drawing, which advance shall be made to Administrative Agent for disbursement to the Fronting Bank issuing such Letter of Credit to reimburse the Fronting Bank, for its own account, for such drawing, all in satisfaction of Borrower’s obligation to reimburse such drawing. Each of the Ratable Loan Banks further acknowledges that its obligation to fund its Pro Rata Share of drawings under Letters of Credit as aforesaid shall survive the Ratable Loan Banks’ termination of this Agreement or enforcement of remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. If any Ratable Loan cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy law with respect to Borrower), then Borrower shall immediately reimburse such drawing by paying to Administrative Agent the amount of such drawing and each of the Ratable Loan Banks shall purchase (on the date such Ratable Loan would otherwise have been made) from the Fronting Bank a participation interest in any unreimbursed drawing in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such unreimbursed drawing. Promptly following any change in Letters of Credit outstanding, the applicable Fronting Bank shall deliver to Administrative Agent, which shall promptly deliver the same to each Ratable Loan Bank and Borrower, a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time. Upon the request of any Ratable Loan Bank from time to time, such Fronting Bank shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by such Ratable Loan Bank with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding. Other than as set forth in this subsection, no Fronting Bank shall have any duty to notify the Ratable Loan Banks regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued hereunder. The failure of any Fronting Bank to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Ratable Loan Bank from its obligations under this subsection (h).

(i)            Borrower agrees (a), upon and during the occurrence of an Event of Default and within one (1) Banking Day following the written request of Administrative Agent or the Required Ratable Loan Banks (or automatically upon an Event of Default under Section 9.01(5)) and (b) as required by Section 2.17(e) with respect to Extended Letters of Credit, (x) to deposit with Administrative Agent cash collateral in the amount of all the outstanding Letters of Credit (“Cash Collateral”), which Cash Collateral is hereby pledged and shall be held by Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Ratable Loan Banks and the Fronting Banks in an account as security for Borrower’s obligations in connection with the Letters of Credit and (y) to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such documents as Administrative Agent requests to confirm and perfect the assignment of such Cash Collateral and such account to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Ratable Loan Banks. In addition, at any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one (1) Banking Day upon the written request of Administrative Agent or any Fronting Bank that has issued a Letter of Credit, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 12.20(d) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender). All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, interest bearing deposit accounts at Administrative Agent. Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Bank, such Bank, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the Fronting BankingBank and the Banks, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied as set forth below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided hereunder in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Bank) or (ii) Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, that such Cash Collateral furnished by Borrower to reduce Fronting Exposure shall not be released if Borrower is required to deposit Cash Collateral in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 2.17(i).

(j)            Intentionally Omitted.

(k)           A Fronting Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent among Borrower, Administrative Agent, the replaced Fronting Bank and the successor Fronting Bank. In addition, Borrower, by written agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent among Borrower, Administrative Agent and a Ratable Loan Bank delivered to Administrative Agent, may designate such Ratable Loan Bank as an additional Fronting Bank with such Letter of Credit Commitment as may be agreed on between such Ratable Loan Bank and Borrower provided that the sum of (x) all Letter of Credit Commitments plus (y) the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit at such time plus (z) the aggregate amount of all drawings under Letters of Credit that have not yet been reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower (including, for clarity, by means of advances of Loans pursuant to this Agreement) shall not exceed $150,000,000 (and the Letter of Credit Commitment of each other Fronting Bank shall be reduced pro rata by the amount of the additional Fronting Bank’s Letter of Credit Commitment). Administrative Agent shall notify the Ratable Loan Banks of any such replacement of the Fronting Bank and any additional Fronting Bank. At the time any such replacement of a Fronting Bank shall become effective, Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Fronting Bank pursuant to Section 2.17(g). From and after the effective date of any such replacement or addition of a Fronting Bank, (x) the successor or additional (as applicable) Fronting Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of a Fronting Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Fronting Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or additional Fronting Bank, or to any previous Fronting Bank, or to such successor or additional, and all previous, Fronting Banks and all other Fronting Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of a Fronting Bank hereunder, the replaced Fronting Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Fronting Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. Subject to the appointment and acceptance by Administrative Agent and Borrower of a successor Fronting Bank, any Fronting Bank may resign as a Fronting Bank at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to Administrative Agent, Borrower and the Ratable Loan Banks, in which case, such Fronting Bank shall be replaced as provided above.

(l)            Borrower’s obligation to reimburse drawings under Letters of Credit as provided in paragraph (h) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Fronting Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither Administrative Agent, the Ratable Loan Banks nor the Fronting Bank shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Fronting Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Fronting Bank from liability to Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by Borrower that are caused by the Fronting Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the Fronting Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Fronting Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Fronting Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(m)          No Fronting Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: (a) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Fronting Bank from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Fronting Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Fronting Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Fronting Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Fronting Bank with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Fronting Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Fronting Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Fronting Bank in good faith deems material to it; or (b) the issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Fronting Bank applicable to letters of credit generally.

SECTION 2.18. Extension Option. Borrower may extend the Ratable Loan Maturity Date two (2) times only for a period of six (6) months per extension upon satisfaction of the following terms and conditions for each extension: (i) delivery by Borrower of a written notice to Administrative Agent (an “Extension Notice”) on or before a date that is not more than one hundred twenty (120) days nor less than one (1) month prior to the then-scheduled Ratable Loan Maturity Date, which Extension Notice Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to the Banks, which Extension Notice shall include a certification dated as of the date of such Extension Notice signed by a duly authorized signatory of Borrower, stating, to the best of the certifying party’s knowledge, (x) all representations and warranties of Borrower and the other Loan Parties contained in this Agreement and in each of the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects to the extent qualified by Material Adverse Change or other materiality qualifier) on and as of the date of such Extension Notice (except in those cases where such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties were true and correct as of such date, and except for changes in factual circumstances not prohibited under the Loan Documents), and (y) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the original Ratable Loan Maturity Date (an “Extension Date”), and (iii) Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent on or before such Extension Date a fee equal to (x) 0.0625% of the aggregate Ratable Loan Commitments for the first extension and (y) 0.075% of the aggregate Ratable Loan Commitments for the second extension, which fee shall be distributed by Administrative Agent pro rata to each of the Ratable Loan Banks based on each Ratable Loan Bank’s Pro Rata Share. Borrower’s delivery of an Extension Notice shall be irrevocable.

SECTION 2.18. [Reserved].

SECTION 2.19. Funds Transfer Disbursements. Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan made by the Banks or any of their Affiliates pursuant to the Loan Documents as requested by an authorized representative of Borrower to any of the accounts designated in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement.

SECTION 2.20. Permitted Extension Amendments.

(a)           Borrower may (i) with respect to any requested extension of any of the Term Loans, at any time or from time to time not more than one hundred twenty (120) days and not less than thirty (30) days prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) in the case of any requested extension of the Ratable Loan Maturity Date, (A) not more than one hundred twenty (120) days and not less than thirty (30) days prior to the then-current Ratable Loan Maturity Date and (B) solely to the extent Borrower shall have executed each extension option pursuant to Section 2.18, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), by notice to Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Banks under the applicable tranche), request that each Term A-1 Bank, Term A-2 Bank, and/or each Ratable Loan Bank extend (each such date on which an extension occurs, a “Requested Extension Date”) such Bank’s Maturity Date applicable to such class of Loans and/or Loan Commitment to the date that is one year after the applicable Maturity Date (or, if such one year anniversary date is not a BusinessBanking Day, the immediately preceding BusinessBanking Day) for such class of Loans and/or Loan Commitment then in effect for such Bank (the “Existing Maturity Date”), subject to the terms and conditions contained in such request which may include (i) an increase in the interest rate or other fees applicable solely with respect to the Loans and/or Loan Commitments in respect of which such extension is made to apply on and after the Requested Extension Date and (ii) the inclusion of additional fees to be payable to the Extending Lenders (as defined below) in connection with such extension (including any upfront fees).

(b)           Each Bank under the applicable class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments, acting in its sole and individual discretion, shall, by notice to Administrative Agent given not later than the date that is fifteen (15) days after the date on which Administrative Agent received Borrower’s extension request (the “Lender Notice Date”), advise Administrative Agent whether or not such Bank agrees to such extension under such class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments (each Bank that determines to so extend its applicable Maturity Date under such class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments, an “Extending Lender”). Each Bank that determines not to so extend its applicable Maturity Date under such class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments (a “Non-Extending Lender”) shall notify Administrative Agent of such fact promptly after such determination (but in any event no later than the Lender Notice Date), and any Bank under such class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments that does not so advise Administrative Agent on or before the Lender Notice Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender. The election of any Bank under such class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Bank under the same class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments to so agree, and it is understood and agreed that no Bank shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by Borrower for extension of the applicable Maturity Date.

(c)           Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower of each Bank’s determination under this Section.

(d)           Borrower shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, on or before the applicable Maturity Date for any Non-Extending Lender to replace such Non-Extending Lender with, and add as “Ratable Loan Banks”, “Term A-1 Banks”, and/or “Term A-2 Banks”, as the case may be, under this Agreement in place thereof, one or more financial institutions under the applicable class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments (each, an “Additional Lender”) approved by Administrative Agent and the Fronting Banks in accordance with the procedures provided in Section 3.07, each of which Additional Lenders shall have entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 12.05, with Borrower obligated to pay any applicable processing or recordation fee) with such Non-Extending Lender, pursuant to which such Additional Lenders shall, effective on or before the applicable Maturity Date for such Non-Extending Lender, assume Ratable Loan Commitments, Term A-1 Loans and/or Term A-2 Loans, as the case may be (and, if any such Additional Lender is already a Bank, its Ratable Loan Commitment, Term A-1 Loans and/or Term A-2 Loans, as applicable, shall be in addition to such Bank’s Ratable Loan Commitment, Term A-1 Loans and/or Term A-2 Loans, as applicable, hereunder on such date). Prior to any Non-Extending Lender being replaced by one or more Additional Lenders pursuant hereto, such Non-Extending Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, by giving irrevocable notice thereof to Administrative Agent and Borrower (which notice shall set forth such Bank’s new applicable Maturity Date), to become an Extending Lender. Administrative Agent may effect such amendments to this Agreement as are reasonably necessary to provide for any such extensions with the consent of Borrower but without the consent of any other Banks.

(e)           If (and only if) (x) with respect to the Ratable Loan Commitments, the total of the Ratable Loan Commitments of the Ratable Loan Banks that have agreed to extend their Ratable Loan Maturity Date and the new or increased Ratable Loan Commitments of any Additional Lenders is more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Ratable Loan Commitments in effect immediately prior to the applicable Requested Extension Date, (y) with respect to the Term A-1 Loans, the total of the outstanding Term A-1 Loans of the Term A-1 Banks that have agreed to extend their Term A-1 Loan Maturity Date and the assumed Term A-1 Loans of any Additional Lenders is more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Term A-1 Loans outstanding immediately prior to the applicable Requested Extension Date, or (z) with respect to the Term A-2 Loans, the total of the outstanding Term A-2 Loans of the Term A-2 Banks that have agreed to extend their Term A-2 Loan Maturity Date and the assumed Term A-2 Loans of any Additional Lenders is more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Term A-2 Loans outstanding immediately prior to the applicable Requested Extension Date then, in each case, effective as of the applicable ReqestedRequested Extension Date, the applicable Maturity Date of each Extending Lender under the applicable class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments and of each Additional Lender shall be extended to the date that is one year after the Existing Maturity Date for such class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments (except that, if such date is not a Banking Day, such Maturity Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Banking Day) and each Additional Lender shall thereupon become a “Ratable Loan Bank”, “Term A-1 Bank”, and/or “Term A-2 Bank”, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement and shall be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as a Bank under such class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments hereunder and shall have the obligations of a Bank under such class of Loans and/or Loan Commitments hereunder. For purposes of clarity, it is acknowledged and agreed that (x) from and after the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Term A-1 Loan Maturity Date on any date of determination shall not be a date more than five (5) years after such date of determination and (y) the Term A-2 Loan Maturity Date on any date of determination shall not be a date more than seven (7) years after such date of determination, whether such determination is made before or after giving effect to any extension request made hereunder.

(f)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) with respect to any extension of the Ratable Loan Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.20, Borrower shall have first exercised each of its extension options pursuant to Section 2.18 and (y) any extension of any Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall not be effective with respect to any Extending Lender unless:

(i)           no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the applicable Requested Extension Date and immediately after giving effect thereto;

(ii)          the representations and warranties of Borrower and each other Loan Party contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the applicable Requested Extension Date (except in those cases where such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date or is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Change” or similar language (which shall be true and correct in all respects as qualified therein) and except for changes in factual circumstances permitted hereunder); and

(iii)         Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate dated as of the applicable Requested Extension Date from Borrower (A) certifying the accuracy of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) and (B) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by Borrower approving or consenting to such extension.

(g)           On the applicable Maturity Date of each Non-Extending Lender, (i) with respect to any extension of the Ratable Loan Maturity Date, any Ratable Loan Commitment of each Non-Extending Lender shall automatically terminate and (ii) Borrower shall repay such Non-Extending Lender in accordance with Section 2.09 (and shall pay to such Non-Extending Lender all of the other Obligations owing to it under this Agreement) and after giving effect thereto shall prepay any Ratable Loans and/or Term Loans outstanding on such date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep outstanding Loans under the applicable class of Loans ratable with any revised applicable percentages of the respective Banks under such class of Loans effective as of such date, and, with respect to the Ratable Loan Commitments, Administrative Agent shall administer any necessary reallocation of the Ratable Credit Exposures (without regard to any minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and/or pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement).

(h)           This Section shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.09, 10.14, 10.15, or 12.02 to the contrary.

ARTICLE III

YIELD PROTECTION; ILLEGALITY; ETC.

SECTION 3.01. Additional Costs. Borrower shall pay directly to each Bank or other Recipient from time to time on demand such amounts as such Bank or other Recipient may reasonably determine to be necessary to compensate it for any increased costs which such Bank or other Recipient determines are attributable to its making or maintaining a Loan, or its obligation to make or maintain a Loan, or its obligation to Convert a Loan hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Bank or other Recipient hereunder in respect of its Loan(s) or such obligations (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), in each case resulting from any Regulatory Change which:

(1)               subjects any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, and (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(2)               (other than to the extent the LIBOR Reserve Requirement is taken into account in determining the LIBOR Rate at the commencement of the applicable Interest Period) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, liquidity, deposit insurance or assessment, minimum capital, capital ratio or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Bank (including any Loan or any deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBOR Interest Rate”), or any commitment of such Bank (including such Bank’s Loan Commitment hereunder); or

(3)               imposes any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or the Notes (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).

Without limiting the effect of the provisions of the first paragraph of this Section, in the event that, by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Bank becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets which it may hold, then, if such Bank so elects by notice to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent), the obligation of such Bank to permit Elections of, to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (in which case the provisions of Section 3.04 shall be applicable) until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect.

The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents and the termination of the Loan Commitments in respect of the period prior to such termination.

Determinations and allocations by a Bank for purposes of this Section of the effect of any Regulatory Change pursuant to the first or second paragraph of this Section, on its costs or rate of return of making or maintaining its Loan or portions thereof or on amounts receivable by it in respect of its Loan or portions thereof, and the amounts required to compensate such Bank under this Section, shall be included in a calculation of such amounts given to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article III to the contrary, Borrower shall only be obligated to pay any amounts due under this Section 3.01 or under Section 3.06 if, and a Bank shall not exercise any right under this Section 3.01 or Sections 3.02, 3.03, 3.04 or 3.06 unless, the applicable Bank is generally imposing a similar charge on, or otherwise similarly enforcing its agreements with, its other similarly situated borrowers. In addition, Borrower shall not be obligated to compensate any Bank under any such provision for any amounts attributable to any period which is more than 180 days prior to such Bank’s delivery of notice thereof to Borrower (except that if a Regulatory Change is retroactive, then such period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect, provided that such Bank delivered notice thereof to Borrower no later than 180 days after the date on which the Regulatory Change with such retroactive effect was made).

For purposes of this Section 3.01, the term “Bank” includes any Fronting Bank.

SECTION 3.02. Alternate Rate of Interest.

(i)            Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, unless and until a Replacement Rate is implemented in accordance with clause (ii) below, if, on or prior to the determination of the LIBOR Base Rate for any Interest Period:

(a)           Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Base Rate for such Interest Period;

(b)           Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of the LIBOR Base Rate are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for LIBOR Loans as provided herein; or

(c)           Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of the LIBOR Base Rate upon the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined are not likely to adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Banks of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period;

then Administrative Agent shall give Borrower and each Bank prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, Banks shall be under no obligation to, and shall not, make additional LIBOR Loans, Continue LIBOR Loans or Convert Loans into LIBOR Loans and Borrower shall, on the last day of each current Interest Period for each outstanding LIBOR Loan, either prepay such Loan or Convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

(ii)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3.02(i) above, if Administrative Agent or Required Banks have made the determination (such determination to be conclusive absent manifest error) that (a) the circumstances described in Section 3.02(i)(a) or (i)(b) have arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (b) any applicable interest rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in Dollars in the U.S. syndicated loan market or (c) the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of any applicable interest rate specified herein or any Governmental Authority having or purporting to have jurisdiction over Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which any applicable interest rate specified herein shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans in Dollars in the U.S. syndicated loan market, then Administrative Agent may, to the extent practicable (in consultation with Borrower and as determined by Administrative Agent to be generally in accordance with similar situations in other transactions in which it is serving as administrative agent or otherwise consistent with market practice generally), establish a replacement interest rate (the “Replacement Rate”), in which case, the Replacement Rate shall, subject to the next two sentences, replace such applicable interest rate for all purposes under the Loan Documents unless and until (A) an event described in Section 3.02(i)(a) or (i)(b), 3.02(ii)(a), 3.02(ii)(b) or 3.02(ii)(c) occurs with respect to the Replacement Rate or (B) Administrative Agent (or Required Banks through Administrative Agent) notifies Borrower that the Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Banks of funding the Loans bearing interest at the Replacement Rate. In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of Administrative Agent and Borrower, as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 3.02(ii). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 12.02), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Banking Days of the delivery of such amendment to Banks, written notices from such Banks that in the aggregate constitute Required Banks, with each such notice stating that such Bank objects to such amendment. To the extent the Replacement Rate is approved by Administrative Agent in connection with this clause (ii), the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice;, provided that, in each case, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for Administrative Agent, such Replacement Rate shall be applied as otherwise reasonably determined by Administrative Agent (it being understood that any such modification by Administrative Agent shall not require the consent of, or consultation with, any of the Banks).

SECTION 3.03. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Bank or its Applicable Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan hereunder, to allow Elections or Continuations of a LIBOR Loan or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan, then such Bank shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and Borrower thereof and such Bank’s obligation to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan, or to permit Elections of, to Continue, or to Convert its Base Rate Loan into, a LIBOR Loan shall be suspended (in which case the provisions of Section 3.04 shall be applicable) until such time as such Bank may again make and maintain a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan.

SECTION 3.04. Treatment of Affected Loans. If the obligations of any Bank to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan or a Bid Rate Loan, or to permit an Election of a LIBOR Loan, to Continue its LIBOR Loan, or to Convert its Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan, are suspended pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.03 (each LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan so affected being herein called an “Affected Loan”), such Bank’s Affected Loan shall be automatically Converted into a Base Rate Loan (or, in the case of an Affected Loan that is a Bid Rate Loan, the interest rate thereon shall be converted to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans) on the last day of the then current Interest Period for the Affected Loan (or, in the case of a Conversion or conversion resulting from Section 3.03, on such earlier date as such Bank may specify to Borrower).

To the extent that such Bank’s Affected Loan has been so Converted (or the interest rate thereon so converted), all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Bank’s Affected Loan shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loan (or to its Bid Rate Loan bearing interest at the converted rate) and such Bank shall have no obligation to Convert its Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan.

SECTION 3.05. Certain Compensation. Other than in connection with a Conversion of an Affected Loan, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Bank, upon the request of such Bank through Administrative Agent which request includes a calculation of the amount(s) due, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Bank) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense which such Bank reasonably determines is attributable to:

(1)               any payment or prepayment of a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan made by such Bank, or any Conversion of a LIBOR Loan (or conversion of the rate of interest on a Bid Rate Loan) made by such Bank, in any such case on a date other than the last day of an applicable Interest Period, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise;

(2)               any failure by Borrower for any reason to Convert a LIBOR Loan or a Base Rate Loan or to Continue a LIBOR Loan, as the case may be, to be Converted or Continued by such Bank on the date specified therefor in the relevant notice under Section 2.14;

(3)               any failure by Borrower to borrow (or to qualify for a borrowing of) a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan which would otherwise be made hereunder on the date specified in the relevant Election notice under Section 2.14 or Bid Rate Quote acceptance under Section 2.02(e) given or submitted by Borrower; or

(4)               any failure by Borrower to prepay a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan on the date specified in a notice of prepayment.

Without limiting the foregoing, such compensation shall include an amount equal to the present value (using as the discount rate an interest rate equal to the rate determined under (2) below) of the excess, if any, of (1) the amount of interest (less the Applicable Margin) which otherwise would have accrued on the principal amount so paid, prepaid, Converted or Continued (or not Converted, Continued or borrowed) for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment, Conversion or Continuation (or failure to Convert, Continue or borrow) to the last day of the then current applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to Convert, Continue or borrow, to the last day of the applicable Interest Period which would have commenced on the date specified therefor in the relevant notice) at the applicable rate of interest for the LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan provided for herein, over (2) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Bank) based upon the interest rate which such Bank would have bid in the London interbank market for Dollar deposits, for amounts comparable to such principal amount and maturities comparable to such period. A determination of any Bank as to the amounts payable pursuant to this Section shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents and the termination of the Loan Commitments in respect of the period prior to such termination.

SECTION 3.06. Capital Adequacy. If any Bank shall have determined that, after the date hereof, due to any Regulatory Change or the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy or liquidity ratios or requirements, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Bank (or its Parent) as a consequence of such Bank’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank (or its Parent) for such reduction. A certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis therefor, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents and the termination of the Loan Commitments in respect of the period prior to such termination.

SECTION 3.07. Substitution of Banks. If any Bank (an “Affected Bank”) (i) makes demand upon Borrower for (or if Borrower is otherwise required to pay) Additional Costs pursuant to Section 3.01, (ii) is unable to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan as a result of a condition described in Section 3.03 or clause (b) of Section 3.02, (iii) has any increased costs as described in Section 3.06, (iv) requires Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or other amounts to such Bank or any Governmental Authority pursuant to Section 10.13, or (v) becomes a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Bank, Borrower may, at Borrower’s sole expense and effort within ninety (90) days of receipt of such demand or notice of the occurrence of an event described above in this Section 3.07 (provided (A) such 90-day limit shall not be applicable for a Defaulting Lender and (B) such 90-day period shall be extended for an additional period of 60 days if Borrower shall have attempted during such 90-day period to secure a Replacement Bank (as defined below) and shall be diligently pursuing such attempt), give written notice (a “Replacement Notice”) to Administrative Agent and to each Bank of Borrower’s intention to replace the Affected Bank with another financial institution (the “Replacement Bank”) designated in such Replacement Notice; provided, that in the case of any assignment resulting from a Bank becoming a Non-Consenting Bank, the Replacement Bank shall have consented to the applicable consent, approval, amendment or waiver; provided, further, that in the case of an Affected Bank that is not a Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Bank, if Borrower has been unable to obtain a Replacement Bank after using its commercially reasonable efforts to do so for a period of sixty (60) days, Borrower shall be permitted to prepay in full such Affected Bank’s Loans and to terminate such Affected Bank’s entire Loan Commitment so long as (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have ocurrred and be continuing at the time of such prepayment or immediately after giving effect thereto, (B) within thirty (30) days after its receipt of Borrower’s request therefor, such Affected Bank shall not have agreed to waive the payment of the Additional Costs, Indemnified Taxes or other amounts in question pursuant to Section 10.13 or the effect of the circumstances described in Section 3.03, in clause (b) of Section 3.02 or in Section 3.06 and (C) to the extent two or more Affected Banks are so prepaid and their Loan Commitments terminated, such Affected Banks’ aggregate Loan Commitments so terminated shall not exceed 5% of the total Loan Commitments before giving effect to such terminations, and such prepayments shall be made ratably in accordance with such Affected Banks’ respective Pro Rata Shares.

In the event Borrower shall elect to make a prepayment of an Affected Bank to the extent permitted in the final proviso of the preceding paragraph, then, so long as no Event of Default shall exist, Borrower may (notwithstanding the provisions of clause (2) of Section 2.16(a)) terminate the Affected Bank’s entire Loan Commitments, provided that in connection therewith it pays to the Affected Bank all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Affected Bank’s Loans, together with all other amounts, if any, due from Borrower to the Affected Bank, including all amounts properly demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 3.01, 3.05 or 10.13. After any replacement or termination, an Affected Bank shall remain entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.06, 10.13 and 12.04 in respect of the period prior to such termination.

In the event Borrower opts to give a Replacement Notice, and if Administrative Agent and, in the case of the replacement of a Ratable Loan Bank, each Fronting Bank and each Swingline Lender, shall promptly (and in any event, within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the Replacement Notice), notify Borrower and each Bank in writing that the Replacement Bank is reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, then the Affected Bank shall, so long as no Event of Default shall exist, assign its Loans and all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to the Replacement Bank, and the Replacement Bank shall assume all of the Affected Bank’s rights and obligations, pursuant to an agreement, substantially in the form of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, executed by the Affected Bank and the Replacement Bank. In connection with such assignment and assumption, the Replacement Bank shall pay to the Affected Bank an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Affected Bank’s Loans plus all interest accrued thereon, plus all other amounts, if any (other than the Additional Costs in question), then due and payable to the Affected Bank; provided, however, that prior to or simultaneously with any such assignment and assumption, Borrower shall have paid to such Affected Bank all amounts properly demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 3.01, 3.05 and 10.13. Upon the effective date of such assignment and assumption, the Replacement Bank shall become a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and the Affected Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this Section, Notes shall be issued to the Replacement Bank by Borrower in accordance with Section 2.09. If the Replacement Bank is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof, it shall, prior to the first date on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for its account, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent a certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes in accordance with Section 10.13. Each Replacement Bank shall be deemed to have made the representations contained in, and shall be bound by the provisions of, Section 10.13. After any assignment as provided in this paragraph, an Affected Bank shall remain entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.06, 10.13 and 12.04 in respect of the period prior to such assignment. The Affected Bank shall not be required to make any assignment described in this Section if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Affected Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment cease to apply.

Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Banks shall execute such modifications to the Loan Documents as shall be reasonably required in connection with and to effectuate the foregoing.

SECTION 3.08. Obligation of Banks to Mitigate. Each Bank agrees that, as promptly as practicable after such Bank has actual knowledge of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Bank to become an Affected Bank or that would entitle such Bank to receive payments under Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.03, 3.06 or 10.13, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts at the cost and expense of Borrower (i) to make, issue, fund, or maintain the Loan Commitment of such Bank or the affected Loans of such Bank through another lending office of such Bank, or (ii) to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if as a result thereof the circumstances that would cause such Bank to be an Affected Bank would cease to exist or the additional amounts that would otherwise be required to be paid to such Bank pursuant to Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.03, 3.06 or 10.13 would be reduced and if, as reasonably determined by such Bank in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding, or maintaining of such Loan Commitment or Loans through such other lending office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Loan Commitment or Loans or would not be otherwise disadvantageous to the interests of such Bank.

SECTION 3.09. Usury. In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by Borrower or any other Loan Party or received by any Bank, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless Borrower shall notify the respective Bank in writing that Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that Borrower not pay and the Banks not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be lawfully paid by Borrower under applicable Law. The parties hereto hereby agree and stipulate that the only charge imposed upon Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement is and shall be the interest specifically described in Section 2.07 and, with respect to Swingline Loans, in Section 2.03(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees, facility fees, closing fees, letter of credit fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or “breakage” charges, increased cost charges, attorneys’ fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by Administrative Agent or any Bank to third parties or for damages incurred by Administrative Agent or any Bank, in each case in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, are charges made to compensate Administrative Agent or any such Bank for underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or incurred, and to be performed or incurred, by Administrative Agent and the Banks in connection with this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money. All charges other than charges for the use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due.

(16)           If General Partner, or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of General Partner, shall cease to be the sole general partner of Borrower or shall cease to have the sole and exclusive power to exercise all management and control over Borrower substantively in the same manner as provided for in Borrower’s partnership agreement as contained in the Form 10 most recently filed with the SEC prior to the Escrow Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Default or Event of Default arising as a result of the determination of any asset, Consolidated Business or UJV as an Unencumbered Asset at any particular time of reference, if such Default or Event of Default is capable of being cured solely by the exclusion of such asset, Consolidated Business or UJV as an Unencumbered Asset, Borrower shall be permitted a period not to exceed fifteen (15) days from the earlier of (x) the date upon which a Responsible Officer of Borrower obtains knowledge of such Default or Event of Default (as applicable) or (y) the date upon which Borrower has received written notice of such Default or Event of Default from Administrative Agent to remove such asset, Consolidated Business or UJV as an Unencumbered Asset upon delivery by Borrower to Administrative Agent of each of the following: (i) written notice thereof and (ii) a compliance certificate excluding such asset, Consolidated Business or UJV as an Unencumbered Asset and evidencing compliance with the financial covenants for the periods such asset, Consolidated Business or UJV was determined to be an Unencumbered Asset.

SECTION 9.02. Remedies. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Administrative Agent shall, (a) upon request of the Required Banks, by notice to Borrower, (1) terminate the applicable Loan Commitments of such Banks, whereupon such Loan Commitments shall terminate and such Banks (including the Swingline Lenders and the Fronting Banks, as applicable) shall have no further obligation to extend credit hereunder; and/or (2) declare the unpaid balance of the applicable Loans, all interest thereon, any Prepayment Premium and all other Guaranteed Obligations related to such Loans payable under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon such balance, all such interest, any Prepayment Premium and all such Guaranteed Obligations due under this Agreement shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower; and/or (3) exercise any remedies provided in any of the Loan Documents or by law; and/or (b) upon request of the Required Ratable Loan Banks, require the deposit of Cash Collateral for the Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.17(i); provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in Section 9.01(5), the Loan Commitments shall automatically terminate (and the Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Fronting Banks shall have no further obligation to extend credit hereunder) and the unpaid balance of the Loans, all interest thereon, any Prepayment Premium and all other Guaranteed Obligations payable under this Agreement shall automatically be and become forthwith due and payable, and the obligations to deliver Cash Collateral for the Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.17(i) shall automatically become effective without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

SECTION 9.03. Allocation of Proceeds.

(a)               If an Event of Default exists, all payments received by Administrative Agent (or any Bank as a result of its exercise of remedies permitted under Section 12.08) under any of the Loan Documents in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations shall be applied in the following order and priority:

(i)                 to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts, including attorney fees then due and payable in accordance with the Loan Documents, payable to Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, each Fronting Bank in its capacity as such and each Swingline Lender in its capacity as such, ratably among Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks and the Swingline Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (i) payable to them;

(ii)              to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Prepayment Premium) then due and payable to the Banks in accordance with the Loan Documents, including reasonable attorney fees, ratably among the Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (ii) payable to them;

(iii)            to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Swingline Loans;

(iv)             to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest and Prepayment Premiums on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, ratably among the Banks and the Fronting Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (iv) payable to them;

(v)               to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Swingline Loans;

(vi)             to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and other Letter of Credit Liabilities and payment obligations then owing under Specified Derivatives Contracts and Specified Cash Management Agreements, ratably among the Banks, the Fronting Banks, the Specified Derivatives Providers and the Specified Cash Management Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (vi) payable to them; provided, however, to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to this clause are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of an outstanding Letter of Credit, such amounts shall be paid to Administrative Agent to be held as provided in Section 2.17(i); and

(vii)          the balance, if any, after all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to Borrower or as otherwise required by applicable Law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Guaranteed Obligations arising under Specified Derivatives Contracts and Specified Cash Management Agreements shall be excluded from the application described above if Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Specified Derivatives Provider or Specified Cash Management Bank, as the case may be. Each Specified Derivatives Provider or Specified Cash Management Bank not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article X for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Bank” party hereto.

SECTION 9.04. Performance by Administrative Agent. If Borrower or any other Loan Party shall fail to perform any covenant, duty or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent may, after notice to Borrower, perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of Borrower or such other Loan Party after the expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth herein. In such event, Borrower shall, at the request of Administrative Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably expended by Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Administrative Agent nor any Bank shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for the performance of any obligation of Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

SECTION 9.05. Rights Cumulative.

(a)               The rights and remedies of Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks and the Banks under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, of the Specified Derivatives Providers under the Specified Derivatives Contracts, and of the Specified Cash Management Banks under the Specified Cash Management Agreements, shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any of them may otherwise have under applicable law. In exercising their respective rights and remedies Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks, the Banks, the Specified Derivatives Providers and the Specified Cash Management Banks may be selective and no failure or delay by any such Person in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against Borrower and the other Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, Administrative Agent in accordance with Article X for the benefit of all of the Banks and the Fronting Banks; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) a Fronting Bank or Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as a Fronting Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, (iii) any Specified Derivatives Provider or Specified Cash Management Bank from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit under any Specified Deriviatives Contract or Specified Cash Management Agreement, as applicable, (iv) any Bank from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 12.08 (subject to the terms of Section 10.15), or (v) any Bank from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (x) the Required Banks shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to Administrative Agent pursuant to Article X and (y) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 10.15, any Bank may, with the consent of the Required Banks, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Banks.

ARTICLE X

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; RELATIONS AMONG BANKS

SECTION 10.01. Appointment, Powers and Immunities of Administrative Agent. Each Bank hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document with such powers as are specifically delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and any other Loan Document or required by law, and shall not by reason of this Agreement be a fiduciary or trustee for any Bank except to the extent that Administrative Agent acts as an agent with respect to the receipt or payment of funds (nor shall Administrative Agent have any fiduciary duty to Borrower nor shall any Bank have any fiduciary duty to Borrower or to any other Bank). Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to the Banks for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by Borrower or any officer, partner or official of Borrower or any other Person contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or in any certificate or other document or instrument referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value, legality, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein, for the perfection or priority of any Lien securing the Guaranteed Obligations or for any failure by Borrower to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder. None of Administrative Agent, its Affiliates or its or its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, agents, trustees, administrators, managers, advisors or representatives (collectively, the “Related Parties”): (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Bank, any Fronting Bank or any other Person, or shall be responsible to any Bank, any Fronting Bank or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of Borrower or other Persons, or to inspect the property, books or records of Borrower or any other Person; and (c) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties. Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the negligence or misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). Borrower shall pay any fee agreed to by Borrower and Administrative Agent with respect to Administrative Agent’s services hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Administrative Agent agrees with the Banks that Administrative Agent shall perform its obligations under this Agreement in good faith according to the same standard of care as that customarily exercised by it in administering its own revolving credit loans.

SECTION 10.02. Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telefax or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may deem and treat each Bank as the holder of the Loan made by it for all purposes hereof and shall not be required to deal with any Person who has acquired a participation in any Loan or participation from a Bank. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with instructions signed by the Required Banks, and such instructions of the Required Banks and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Banks and any other holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, no Bank shall have any right of action whatsoever against Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Banks, or where applicable, all of the Banks.

SECTION 10.03. Defaults. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default (other than an Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.01(1)) unless Administrative Agent has received notice from a Bank or Borrower specifying such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” In the event that Administrative Agent receives a Notice of Default, Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Banks. Administrative Agent, following consultation with the Banks, shall (subject to Section 9.02, Section 10.07 and Section 12.02) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default which is continuing as shall be directed by the Required Banks; provided that, unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, Administrative Agent may 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 interest of the Banks; and provided further that Administrative Agent shall not (subject to Section 9.02) send a notice of Default, Event of Default or acceleration to Borrower without the approval of the Required Banks. In no event shall Administrative Agent be required to take any such action which it determines to be contrary to law. If any Bank (excluding the Bank which is also serving as Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to Administrative Agent such a “Notice of Default”; provided, a Bank’s failure to provide such a “Notice of Default” to Administrative Agent shall not result in any liability of such Bank to any other party to any of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 10.04. Rights of Agent as a Bank. With respect to its Loan Commitment and the Loan provided by it, each Person serving as an Agent in its capacity as a Bank hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as such Agent, and the term any “Bank” or “Banks” shall include each Person serving as an Agent in its capacity as a Bank. Each Person serving as an Agent and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Bank) accept deposits from, lend money to (on a secured or unsecured basis), and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, Borrower (and any Affiliates of Borrower) as if it were not acting as such Agent. The Fronting Banks and the Banks acknowledge that, pursuant to such business activities, an Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower and its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that no Agent shall be under any obligation to provide such information to the Fronting Banks or the Banks.

SECTION 10.05. Indemnification of Agents. Each Bank agrees to indemnify each Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 12.04 or under the applicable provisions of any other Loan Document, but without limiting the obligations of Borrower under Section 12.04 or such provisions), for its Pro Rata Share of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the costs and expenses which Borrower is obligated to pay under Section 12.04) or under the applicable provisions of any other Loan Document or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents or instruments; provided that no Bank shall be liable for (1) any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) of the party to be indemnified, (2) any loss of principal or interest with respect to the Loan of any Bank serving as an Agent or (3) any loss suffered by such Agent in connection with a swap or other interest rate hedging arrangement entered into with Borrower, and that no action taken in accordance with the written directions of the Required Banks (or all of the Banks, if expressly required hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.06. Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Banks. Each of the Banks and the Fronting Banks expressly acknowledges and agrees that no Agent nor any of its respective Related Parties has made any representations or warranties to such Fronting Bank or such Bank and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of General Partner, Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by any Agent to a Fronting Bank or any Bank. Each of the Banks and the Fronting Banks acknowledges that it has made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any other Bank or counsel to Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on the financial statements of General Partner, Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of General Partner, Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate. Each of the Banks and the Fronting Banks also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any other Bank or counsel to Administrative Agent or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents. No Agent shall be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Banks and the Fronting Banks by Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Bank or Fronting Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of General Partner, Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties. Each of the Banks and the Fronting Banks acknowledges that Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Bank or Fronting Bank.

SECTION 10.07. Failure of Administrative Agent to Act. Except for action expressly required of Administrative Agent hereunder, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder unless it shall have received further assurances (which may include Cash Collateral) of the indemnification obligations of the Banks under Section 10.05 in respect of any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. If any indemnity furnished by the Banks to Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the reasonable opinion of Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the action indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

SECTION 10.08. Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent. If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Banks may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and appoint a successor; provided, however, that so long as no Default under Section 9.01(1) or Section 9.01(5) or Event of Default exists, such appointment shall be subject to Borrower’s approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (except that Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Bank and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Banks) (the “Removal Closing Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Closing Date. Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Default under Section 9.01(1) or Section 9.01(5) or Event of Default exists, be subject to Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Bank and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the current Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks and the Fronting Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Bank, if any Bank shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be a Qualified Institution; provided that if Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and the Banks that no Bank has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice. As of the Removal Closing Date or the effectiveness of such resignation, as applicable, (1) Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made to each Bank and the Fronting Banks directly, until such time as a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed as provided for above in this Section; provided, further that such the Banks and the Fronting Banks so acting directly shall be and be deemed to be protected by all indemnities and other provisions herein for the benefit and protection of Administrative Agent as if each such Bank or Fronting Bank were itself Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. Any resignation by or removal of an Administrative Agent shall also constitute the resignation or removal as a Fronting Bank and as the Swingline BankLender by the Bank then acting as Administrative Agent (the “Resigning Bank”). Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder (i) the Resigning Bank shall be discharged from all duties and obligations of a Fronting Bank and the Swingline Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) the successor Fronting Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for all Letters of Credit issued by the Resigning Bank as Fronting Bank outstanding at the time of such succession (which letters of credit issued in substitutions shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder) or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Resigning Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the Resigning Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit. After any Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 10.09. Amendments Concerning Agency Function. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Agent shall be bound by any waiver, amendment, supplement or modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which affects its duties, rights, and/or function hereunder or thereunder unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto.

SECTION 10.10. Liability of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall not have any liabilities or responsibilities to Borrower on account of the failure of any Bank to perform its obligations hereunder or to any Bank on account of the failure of Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

SECTION 10.11. Transfer of Agency Function. Without the consent of Borrower or any Bank, Administrative Agent may at any time or from time to time transfer its functions as Administrative Agent hereunder to any of its offices wherever located in the United States, provided that Administrative Agent shall promptly notify in writing Borrower and the Banks thereof.

SECTION 10.12. Non-Receipt of Funds by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank or Borrower (either one as appropriate being the “Payor”) prior to the date on which such Bank is to make payment hereunder to Administrative Agent of the proceeds of a Loan or Borrower is to make payment to Administrative Agent, as the case may be (either such payment being a “Required Payment”), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that the Payor will not make the Required Payment in full to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made in full to Administrative Agent on such date, and Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient on such date. If and to the extent the Payor shall not have in fact so made the Required Payment in full to Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount made available to it together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount was so made available by Administrative Agent until the date Administrative Agent recovers such amount, at the customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among the Banks for three (3) Banking Days and thereafter at the Base Rate.

SECTION 10.13. Taxes.

(a)               Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, 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 Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 10.13) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

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

(c)               Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 10.13, Borrower shall deliver to 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 Administrative Agent.

(d)               Indemnification by Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Recipient (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e)               Indemnification by Banks. Each Bank shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Bank (but only to the extent that Borrower has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Bank's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.05(b) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by 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 Bank by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Bank hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to such Bank from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f)                Status of Banks. (i) Any Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Bank, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Bank is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 10.13(f)(ii)(A),(B) and (D) below) shall not be required if in the applicable Bank's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank.

(ii)                    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A)             any Bank that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), an executed IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Bank is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

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

(1)               in the case of a Foreign Bank 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, an executed IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "interest" article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income" article of such tax treaty;

(2)               in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming that its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3)               in the case of a Foreign Bank 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 J-1 to the effect that such Foreign Bank is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a "10 percent shareholder" of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a "controlled foreign corporation" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a "U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate") and (y) an executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

(4)               to the extent a Foreign Bank is not the beneficial owner, an executed 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 J-2 or Exhibit J-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Bank is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Bank are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Bank may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

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

(D)             if a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Bank 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 Bank shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or 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 Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Bank has complied with such Bank'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 Bank 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 Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g)               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 10.13 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 10.13), 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 10.13 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable 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 (g) (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 (g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place such indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such 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, or to apply for or seek a refund of any Taxes on behalf of, any indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h)               Survival. Each party's obligations under this Section 10.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Bank, the termination of the Loan Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(i)                 Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 10.13, the term “Bank” includes any Fronting Bank or Designated BankLender and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(b)               each payment or prepayment of principal of Ratable Loans shall be made for the account of the Ratable Loan Banks according to the amounts of their respective Pro Rata Shares; provided that, subject to Section 12.20, if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Ratable Loans the outstanding principal amount of the Ratable Loans shall not be held by the Ratable Loan Banks in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares in effect at the time such Ratable Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Ratable Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Ratable Loans being held by the Ratable Loan Banks according to the amounts of their respective Pro Rata Shares;

(c)               each payment of interest on Ratable Loans shall be made for the account of the Ratable Loan Banks pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Ratable Loans then due and payable to the respective Ratable Loan Bank;

(f)                each payment of interest on a tranche of Term Loans shall be made for the account of the applicable tranche of Term Loan Banks according to the amounts of their respective Pro Rata Shares of such tranche, as applicable, then due and payable to the respective Term Loan Banks;

If a Bank shall obtain payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan made by it through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, or by any other means (including direct payment), and such payment results in such Bank receiving a greater payment than it would have been entitled to had such payment been paid directly to Administrative Agent for disbursement to the Banks, then such Bank shall promptly purchase for cash from the other Banks participations in the Loans made by the other Banks in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable to the end that all of the Banks shall share ratably the benefit of such payment; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Bank as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant, other than to Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). To such end the Banks shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation in the Loans made by other Banks may exercise all rights of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation.

(a)               Each Bank (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Bank party hereto, that, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Bank party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Bank party hereto, for the benefit of, Administrative Agent, each Lead Arranger and each Bookrunner and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(b)               In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Bank or (2) a Bank has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Bank further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Bank party hereto, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Bank party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Bank party hereto, for the benefit of, Administrative Agent, each Lead Arranger, each Bookrunner and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower or any other Loan Party, that none of Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger or any Bookrunner or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Bank involved in such Bank’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Loan Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).
