During the third quarter, we acquired the remaining minority interests and sold the Bellefontaine operations. We have assumed full ownership of the Atlantic facility. The Bellefontaine operations had 2004 sales of $44 including sales of $26 to Dana. | |
| We sold our domestic fuel-rail business, consisting of a production facility in Angola, Indiana with sales of approximately $38 in 2004. | |

111
| Within the Commercial Vehicle business unit, we installed a new senior management team, reassigned several controllers and added support resources to the finance staff; |
112
| We enhanced the training program for our Standards of Business Conduct by deploying a new training tool to all employees worldwide for reviewing and testing their understanding of the principles contained in the Standards; and | |
| To further improve the visibility to management of potential issues, we have begun requiring our division controllers to send copies of the results of their required periodic on-site plant reviews directly to our Chief Accounting Officer and our controllers at all levels to make their quarterly certifications and representations directly to our CEO and CFO, as well as to their immediate supervisors. Copies of these on-site plant review reports and quarterly controller certifications are also being sent to Internal Audit to aid in identifying potential financial reporting issues. |
| During 2005, we augmented the resources in our corporate accounting department, and in 2006 we will continue to add to the departments staff and utilize external resources as appropriate; | |
| Outside of the corporate accounting department, we will continue to add financial personnel as necessary throughout the company to provide adequate resources with appropriate levels of experience and GAAP knowledge; | |
| Additional emphasis is being placed by senior management in operations and information technology to develop specific remediation plans for all the control deficiencies, concentrating initially on those pertaining to the segregation of duties and other operations-based matters identified as material weaknesses; | |
| We are creating centers of excellence for finance functions to process transactions which require specialized accounting knowledge; | |
| We will implement a centralized contract administration process such that all significant agreements, and significant changes to such agreements, are reviewed by experienced financial personnel who will prescribe and monitor the appropriate accounting for the underlying transactions; | |
| We are currently recruiting to replace the human resource professional assigned in 2005 to focus on the organizational development needs of the Finance group and to track the training and career paths of our finance personnel, reassess the competency requirements for our key financial positions and determine our overall financial staffing needs; | |
| During 2005, we dedicated information technology (IT) personnel to assist in planning for the future IT needs of our finance function; | |
| During 2006, we will complete the deployment to all our locations of account reconciliation software to allow for the access and review of reconciliations from a central location; |
113
| We will enhance our corporate accounting policies in certain areas, including long-lived assets and goodwill, and deploy the resultant changes to our financial people worldwide; | |
| As part of the ongoing transformation of our finance function, we will continue to centralize control and responsibility for routine, high-volume accounting activities in shared service centers or with third-party providers; and | |
| During 2005, we conducted an independent review of the effectiveness of our internal audit function. As a result of the findings, we will broaden the nature and extent of work that our internal audit department performs by increasing the size of the department and enhancing the competency of its people. |
| The implementation of effective controls over the computation and review of our LIFO inventory calculation by modifying the instructions used by both Corporate Accounting and the facilities to ensure all capitalized items, such as steel surcharges, were appropriately reflected in the calculation; | |
| The completion of the restructuring of the senior management team in the Commercial Vehicle business unit; and | |
| The ongoing deployment of the account reconciliation software to our major facilities as described above. |

(1) | The exercise price is the amount the holder must pay to purchase each share of stock that is subject to an option. The exercise prices reported in this table equal the fair market value (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan) of the stock on the grant date. All options shown in the table were granted on February 14, 2005, except those shown for Mr. Stanage, which were granted on August 29, 2005. |
(2) | All options shown in the table became exercisable on December 1, 2005, as a result of the accelerated vesting described in Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements, except those shown for Mr. Stanage, which will vest in 25% increments on each of the first four anniversary dates of the grant and expire ten years from the date of grant. |
(3) | We used a binomial option pricing model to determine the hypothetical grant date value for the options shown in this table. The average fair value of the options granted to Messrs. Burns, Richter, Cole, |

DeBacker and Laisure was $4.28 per share under the binomial method, using a weighted-average market value at date of grant of $15.94 and the following weighted-average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 3.86%, a dividend yield of 2.64%, volatility of 30.0% to 31.5%, expected forfeitures of 17.52% and an expected option life of 6.74 years. The average fair value of the options granted to Mr. Stanage was $3.61 per share under the binomial method, using a weighted-average market value at date of grant of $13.35 and the following weighted-average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 4.05%, a dividend yield of 3.17%, volatility of 31.5% to 35.0%, expected forfeitures of 45.7% and an expected option life of 5.81 years. |

Exhibit 10-S DANA CORPORATION ANNUAL INCENTIVE PLAN 1. OVERVIEW AND EFFECTIVE DATE The Annual Incentive Plan (the "PLAN") of Dana Corporation (the "COMPANY") is intended to reward key members of the management of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries for achieving specific performance goals over one-year periods commencing on each of January 1, 2006 and January 1, 2007. The Plan offers Participants (as defined below) the opportunity to receive a cash payment if the Company achieves certain financial objectives that are deemed critical to the restructuring of the Company, as determined by the Compensation Committee (the "COMMITTEE") of the Board of Directors (the "BOARD"). The Plan is effective as of March 1, 2006 (the "EFFECTIVE DATE"). The Plan was approved by the Committee and recommended to the Board on February 27, 2006. On February 28, 2006 (the "APPROVAL DATE"), the Board approved and authorized the Plan. 2. PLAN ADMINISTRATION The Plan will be administered by the Committee. The Committee's powers and authority include, but are not limited to (1) selecting individuals who are eligible to participate as Critical Leaders and Key Leaders (both as defined herein), (2) determining award opportunities for Critical Leaders and Key Leaders, (3) establishing parameters for the selection of the Dana Leaders (as defined herein), (4) approving the aggregate amount available for awards for each Performance Period (as defined herein), (5) establishing the program elements for each Performance Period and Interim Performance Period (as defined herein), (6) interpreting the Plan's provisions, (7) determining achievement of the Performance Goals (as defined herein) and approving payments under the Plan, and (8) administering the Plan in a manner that is consistent with its purpose. The Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") of the Company will have the powers and authority described in clauses (1) and (2) above with respect to the Dana Leaders, in addition to those powers delegated to him by the Committee and herein provided, in accordance with parameters established by the Committee. The Committee may delegate certain administrative functions to management, such as maintenance of lists of all employees who are eligible to participate, periodic communication with regard to performance against targets over time, and other functions as determined by the Committee. 3. PERFORMANCE AND INTERIM PERFORMANCE PERIODS Performance will be measured over each of the one-year periods from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006, and January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007 (each a "PERFORMANCE PERIOD") and each of the six-month periods from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006, and from January 1, 2007 to June 30, 2007 (each an "INTERIM PERFORMANCE PERIOD"). 1
4. ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION "PARTICIPANTS" will be employees of the Company or its consolidated subsidiaries in one of the following three categories, selected based on their importance to the Company and the achievement of the Company's financial and restructuring goals. The Critical Leaders and Key Leaders will be recommended by the CEO and approved by the Committee. The Dana Leaders will be recommended by senior management and approved by the CEO in accordance with the parameters established by the Committee. (a) "CRITICAL LEADERS" will be executives whose efforts will be critical to achieving the Company's restructuring and financial goals. (b) "KEY LEADERS" will be executives with vital operational responsibilities for Dana's Product Groups or vital administrative responsibilities for performing the corporate functions that support the Company and the Product Groups. (c) "DANA LEADERS" will be other individuals with essential operational responsibilities in the Product Groups or essential administrative responsibilities for performing corporate functions that support the Company and the Product Groups. Participants may be added after the Effective Date as recommended by the CEO and approved by the Committee with respect to Critical Leaders and Key Leaders, and as recommended by senior management and approved by the CEO with respect to Dana Leaders in accordance with the parameters established by the Committee. Participants with respect to each Performance Period will receive a personalized letter from the Company indicating their participation in the Plan and the Target Award Opportunity (as defined herein) for such Performance Period. 5. ESTABLISHING PROGRAM ELEMENTS FOR EACH PERFORMANCE AND INTERIM PERFORMANCE PERIOD The Committee will establish the following elements of the program for each Performance and Interim Performance Period: (a) Eligibility. The Committee will decide, based upon recommendations from the CEO, the employees of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries who will be designated as Critical Leaders and Key Leaders for the Performance Period and the related Interim Performance Period. The Committee will also establish the parameters the CEO and senior management should use to identify the Dana Leaders who will participate for the Performance Period and related Interim Performance Period. The CEO will decide, based upon recommendations of senior management, the employees of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries who will be designated as Dana Leaders. (b) Objectives. The Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the Committee, will set one or more financial performance goals to be achieved by the Company during the Performance Period and the related Interim Performance Period (collectively, with the Product Group financial performance goals, the "PERFORMANCE GOALS"), will establish the method of measuring the level of performance achieved for each such Performance Goal, and will establish "Threshold," "Target," and "Superior" levels of performance for the Performance Goals. In addition, the Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the Committee, will set 2
one or more financial performance goals to be achieved by each of the Company's Product Groups during the Performance Period and the Interim Performance Period, for use in determining the payouts to be made to Key Leaders and Dana Leaders employed in that Product Group. The Performance Goals will be described in the minutes. (c) Amount of Target Award Opportunities. The Committee or Chair with respect to Critical Leaders and Key Leaders, and the CEO with respect to Dana Leaders, will establish the potential incentive award each Participant may receive for the Performance Period (the "TARGET AWARD OPPORTUNITY") if the target level of performance for the Performance Goals is achieved during the Performance Period. In determining the amounts of the Target Award Opportunities, the Committee, Chair and CEO will consider (1) the level of payment that is necessary or appropriate to provide an economic incentive for each Participant to exert additional efforts on behalf of the Company, (2) the amount the Company is expected to be able to afford to pay as awards, given its debt service, cash flow and financial covenants, and (3) such other factors as the Committee deems to be desirable. The Target Award Opportunity that may be earned during the Performance Period will equal a percentage of the Participant's base salary as of the Effective Date and will be expressed as a dollar amount specified in advance. Changes in a Participant's base salary after the Effective Date will not affect the amount of his Target Award Opportunity for the Performance Period. The maximum award which may be paid to any participant for the Performance Period if the "Superior" level of performance is achieved with respect to the Performance Goal for the Performance Period will in no event exceed 200 percent of the Target Award Opportunity for the Participant. 6. AWARD DETERMINATIONS At the end of each Performance Period and Interim Performance Period, the Committee will determine the level of performance achieved for the Performance Goals during such period. The levels of performance achieved will be compared to the Performance Goals for the period. The amount of the award paid to any Participant may be higher or lower than his Target Award Opportunity based on actual performance, and there is no guarantee that any payments will be made for any Performance Period. (a) Below Threshold Level. If the level of performance achieved with respect to the Performance Goals is less than the "Threshold" level designated by the Committee, no awards will be paid to Participants. (b) At or Above Threshold Level. If the level of performance achieved with respect to the Performance Goals is equal to (but does not exceed) the "Threshold" level established by the Committee, each Participant will be eligible to receive an award up to the amount of the minimum award which would have been earned at the "Threshold" level of performance for the Performance Period. If the level of performance achieved with respect to the Performance Goals exceeds the "Threshold" level but does not reach the "Target" level, the amount of the award that will be paid to each Participant will be proportionately increased from the "Threshold" level payment by interpolating between the "Threshold" level and the amount of the Target Award Opportunity which would have been earned at the "Target" level of performance. (c) At or Above Target Level. If the level of performance achieved with respect to the Performance Goals is equal to (but does not exceed) the "Target" level established by the Committee, each Participant will be eligible to receive an award up to his Target Award Opportunity for the Performance Period. If the level of performance achieved with respect to the Performance Goals exceeds the "Target" level but does not reach the "Superior" level, the 3
amount of each Participant's award will be proportionately increased from the "Target" level payment by interpolating between the "Target" level and the amount of the maximum award which would have been earned at the "Superior" level of performance. (d) At or Above Superior Level. If the level of performance achieved with respect to the Performance Goals is equal to or greater than the "Superior" level established by the Committee, each Participant will be eligible to receive an award up to the amount of the maximum award which would have been earned at the "Superior" level of performance. The total amount of the award paid to a Participant for any Performance Period or Interim Performance Period under the Plan may not exceed the amount calculated as provided herein. If an Interim Payout is made as set forth in Section 8, the amount of the award paid for performance over the entire Performance Period will be reduced by the amount of the Interim Payout. However, in no event will a Participant be required to pay back any amounts received as an Interim Payout in the event the Interim Payout exceeds the amount of the award for the entire Performance Period. 7. MANAGEMENT BUSINESS OBJECTIVES The Committee may identify and utilize individual metrics ("MANAGEMENT BUSINESS OBJECTIVES") to make discretionary adjustments to the awards payable to Critical Leaders and Key Leaders, and CEO will have the same powers and authority to make discretionary adjustments to awards payable to Dana Leaders, provided that the net aggregate effect of all discretionary adjustments to the total amount of compensation reflected in the budget for the Plan approved by the Board will be zero. 8. INTERIM PAYOUTS At the end of each Interim Performance Period, each Participant will be eligible to receive an "INTERIM PAYOUT" equal to 50% of his Target Award Opportunity if the Performance Goals set by the Committee for such six-month period are achieved. The Interim Payouts, to the extent earned, will be paid out consistent with the terms of Section 6 above and in accordance with the provisions outlined hereafter. 9. FORM OF PAYOUT AND TIMING To be eligible to receive a payout under the Plan, a Participant must be in active full-time employment of the Company or a consolidated subsidiary on the date of payment (the "PAYMENT DATE"). Interim Payouts earned in 2006 and 2007 will be paid on or before August 15, 2006 or 2007, respectively. Awards earned for performance in the 2006 and 2007 Performance Periods will be paid on or before March 15, 2007 and 2008, respectively. All Interim Payouts and awards will be paid in cash and will be subject to all applicable tax withholding requirements. 4
10. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, a Participant will forfeit all unpaid amounts earned hereunder if he is not in active full-time employment with the Company or a consolidated subsidiary on the Payment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Participant's "Death" or "Disability" (as defined in the Dana Corporation Change in Control Severance Plan in effect on the Effective Date) or involuntary termination by the Company without "Cause" (as defined in the Dana Corporation Change in Control Severance Plan in effect on the Effective Date), accrued but unpaid amounts will be paid in accordance with the terms of payment applicable to other Participants in the Plan in active full-time employment with the Company, adjusted to reflect the portion of the Performance Period actually completed as of the date of the involuntary termination by the Company without Cause, Death or Disability. A Participant's beneficiary will be paid a pro-rata payment for the last period worked (interim or full year, as the case may be, but not thereafter). If the Participant is terminated after January 1, but before June 30, he may receive an Interim Payout, if applicable. If the Participant is terminated after July 1 but before December 31, he may receive an award, if applicable. The adjusted amount will be determined by (a) multiplying the Interim Payout or award applicable to such Participant (assuming continuous service through the end of the Interim Performance Period or full Performance Period, as the case may be) by a fraction, the numerator of which will equal the actual whole and partial months worked during such period and the denominator of which will equal 12, and (b) in the case of an award, subtracting the amount of any applicable Interim Payout. Payments hereunder will be made at the times set forth in Section 9 unless determined otherwise by the Committee. 11. PRO RATA PAYMENTS An employee who is selected to participate in the Plan as a result of promotion or new hire may be assigned a Target Award Opportunity that reflects the portion of Performance Period he is anticipated to complete based on the date that he becomes a Participant. The Target Award Opportunity assigned to such a Participant will not be subject to additional pro-ration, except to the extent Section 10 applies. The Committee for the Critical Leaders and Key Leaders, and the CEO for the Dana Leaders, will have the discretion to include a new Participant in the Plan for the full year. 12. AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION The Company, by action of the Committee, shall have the right to amend or terminate the Plan as it deems necessary and appropriate. 13. OTHER (a) No Individual Rights. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder will be construed as giving any Participant any right to continue to be employed or to continue to provide services to the Company, any subsidiary, or any related entity. The right to terminate the employment of or performance of services by any Participant at any time and for any reason is specifically reserved to the Company and its subsidiaries, as applicable. 5
(b) Binding Arbitration. Any dispute or disagreement regarding participation and/or a Participant's rights to any payments under the Plan will be settled solely by binding arbitration in accordance with the applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association. (c) Unfunded Plan. The Plan will be unfunded and will not create (or be construed to create) a trust or a separate fund or funds. To the extent any Participant holds any obligation of the Company hereunder by virtue of participation in this Plan, such obligation will constitute a general unsecured liability of the Company and accordingly will not confer upon such person any right, title, or interest in any assets of the Company. (d) Governing Law. The terms of the Plan and all rights thereunder will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Ohio, without reference to principles of conflict of laws. 6

(c) Borrowings. Each Borrowing shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (other than a Borrowing the proceeds of which shall be used solely to repay or prepay in full outstanding Swing Line Advances or Letter of Credit Advances) and shall consist of Advances made simultaneously by the Lenders under the applicable Facility ratably according to the Lenders' Commitments under such Facility. Within the limits of each Lender's Unused Revolving Credit Commitment in effect from time to time, the Borrower may borrow under Section 2.01(a), prepay pursuant to Section 2.06, and reborrow under Section 2.01(a).
28 (d) The Swing Line Advances. The Swing Line Lender severally agrees on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Swing Line Advances to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in an aggregate amount owing to the Swing Line Lender not to exceed at any time outstanding the lesser of (i) the Swing Line Facility at such time and (ii) the Swing Line Lender's Swing Line Commitment at such time; provided, however, that no Swing Line Borrowing shall exceed the aggregate of the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders at such time. No Swing Line Advance shall be used for the purpose of funding the payment of principal of any other Swing Line Advance. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be in an amount of $500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Within the limits of the Swing Line Facility and within the limits referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d), the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(d), repay pursuant to Section 2.04(d) or prepay pursuant to Section 2.06(a) and reborrow under this Section 2.01(d). Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Advance, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Advance in an amount equal to the product of such Lender's Pro Rata Share times the principal amount of such Swing Line Advance. Section 2.02 Making the Advances. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.02(b) or 2.03, each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or the first Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telex or telecopier. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a "Notice of Borrowing") shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telex or telecopier, in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) the Facility under which such Borrowing is to be made, (iii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iv) aggregate amount of such Borrowing and (v) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each Lender shall, before 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account, in same day funds, such Lender's ratable portion of such Borrowing in accordance with the respective Commitments of such Lender and the other Lenders. After the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower by crediting the Borrower's Account or such other account as the Borrower shall request; provided, however, that, in the case of Revolving Credit Advances, the Administrative Agent shall first apply such funds to prepay ratably the aggregate principal amount of any Swing Line Advances and Letter of Credit Advances outstanding on the date of such Borrowing, plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon to and as of such date. (b) (i) Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing, by the Borrower to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent. Each such notice of a Swing Line Borrowing (a "Notice of Swing Line Borrowing") shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telecopier, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) amount of such Borrowing and (iii) maturity of such Borrowing (which maturity shall be no later than the seventh day after the requested date of such Borrowing). The Swing Line Lender will make the amount of the requested Swing Line Advances available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account, in same day funds. After the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower by crediting the Borrower's Account or such other account as the Borrower shall request.
29 (ii) The Swing Line Lender may, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, request on behalf of the Borrower (and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf) that each Revolving Credit Lender make a Base Rate Advance in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the amount of Swing Line Advances then outstanding. Such request shall be deemed to be a Notice of Borrowing for purposes hereof and shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02(a) without regard solely to the minimum amounts specified therein but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 (except that the Borrower shall not be deemed to have made any representations and warranties). The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the Notice of Borrowing promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified in such Notice of Borrowing available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Swing Line Lender, by deposit to the Administrative Agent's Account, in same date funds, not later than 3:00 P.M. on the day specified in such Notice of Borrowing. (iii) If for any reason any Swing Line Advance cannot be refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing as contemplated by Section 2.02(b)(ii), the request for Base Rate Advances submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth in Section 2.02(b)(ii) shall be deemed to be a request by such Swing Line Lender that each of the Revolving Credit Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Advance and each Revolving Credit Lender's payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.02(b)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation. (iv) If and to the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made the amount of its Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Advance available to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02(b)(ii), such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of the applicable Notice of Borrowing delivered by such Swing Line Lender until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. (v) Each Revolving Credit Lender's obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances or to purchase and fund risk participations in a Swing Line Advance pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Credit Lender's obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) is subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. No funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Advances, together with interest as provided herein. (c) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrower may not select Eurodollar Rate Advances for the initial Borrowing hereunder or for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $5,000,000 or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.09 or 2.10 and (ii) the Revolving Credit Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than 15 separate Borrowings. (d) Each Notice of Borrowing and each Notice of Swing Line Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or
30 before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any actual loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from any Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay or pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount and to pay interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid or paid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at such time under Section 2.07 to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement. (f) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance or make available on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by it. Section 2.03 Issuance of and Drawings and Reimbursement Under Letters of Credit. (a) The Letter of Credit Commitment. (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) each Issuing Bank agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and to amend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsection (b) below, and (2) to honor drafts under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that the Issuing Banks shall not be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit, and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of Credit if as of the date of such issuance, (x) the Available Amount for all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank would exceed the lesser of the Letter of Credit Sublimit at such time and such Issuing Bank's Letter of Credit Commitment at such time, (y) the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit would exceed the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower's ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. (ii) No Issuing 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 Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon
31 such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; (B) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Revolving Credit Lenders have approved such expiry date; (C) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank; or (D) such Letter of Credit is in an initial amount less than $100,000 (unless such Issuing Bank agrees otherwise), or is to be denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars. (iii) No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit. (b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit. (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the applicable Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower or such Subsidiary for whose account such Letter of Credit is to be issued. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as such Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may reasonably require. (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the applicable Issuing Bank will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, such Issuing Bank will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by such Issuing Bank of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Issuing Bank's usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from such Issuing Bank a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender's Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit. (iii) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing
32 Bank will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day following any payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit, so long as the Borrower has received notice of such drawing by 10:00 a.m. on such following Business Day (each such date, an "Honor Date"), the Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Bank through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing (together with interest thereon at the rate set forth in Section 2.07 for Revolving Credit Advances bearing interest at the Base Rate). If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the "Unreimbursed Amount"), and the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender's Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Borrowings, but subject to the amount of the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 (other than the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing). Any notice given by an Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. (ii) Each Revolving Credit Lender (including a Revolving Credit Lender acting as Issuing Bank) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank at the Administrative Agent's Office in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Letter of Credit Advance to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable Issuing Bank. (iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing because the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable Issuing Bank a Letter of Credit Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Revolving Credit Lender's payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a Letter of Credit Advance from such Revolving Credit Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03. (iv) Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Revolving Credit Advance or Letter of Credit Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Revolving Credit Lender's Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of such Issuing Bank. (v) Each Revolving Credit Lender's obligation to make Letter of Credit Advances to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance,
33 including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender may have against such Issuing Bank, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. No such making of a Letter of Credit Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for the amount of any payment made by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. (vi) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), such Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Credit Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the such Issuing Bank at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the applicable Issuing Bank submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (d) Repayment of Participations. (i) At any time after any Issuing Bank has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Revolving Credit Lender's Letter of Credit Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender's Letter of Credit Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent. (ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any circumstances (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Issuing Bank in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Revolving Credit Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. (e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse any Issuing Bank for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), such Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions
34 contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; (iv) any payment by the Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by such Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or (v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower. The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower's instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the applicable Issuing Bank. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the applicable Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. (f) Role of Issuing Bank. Each Revolving Credit Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, no Issuing Bank shall have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Issuing Banks, any Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any Issuing Bank shall be liable to any Revolving Credit Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Revolving Credit Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Issuing Banks, any Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any Issuing Bank, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against an Issuing Bank, any related Agent-Related Person, any of their respective correspondents, participants or assignees of such Issuing Bank or any Agent-Related Person, and they may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by such Issuing Bank's, any such Agent-Related Person's, or any of such respective correspondents, participants or assignees of such Issuing Bank or of any Agent-Related Person's willful misconduct or gross negligence or such Issuing Bank's willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly
35 complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the applicable Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. (g) Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, the Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to 105% of such Outstanding Amount determined as of the date of such Letter of Credit Borrowing or the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, as the case may be).

(New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Section 2.10, Convert all or any portion of the Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(c), no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(c) and each Conversion of Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments. Each such notice of Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for such Advances. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. (b) Mandatory. (i) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $5,000,000, such Advances shall, at the end of the applicable Interest Period, automatically Convert into Base Rate Advances. (ii) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of "Interest Period" in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon each such Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance.
40 (iii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (x) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (y) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended. Section 2.10 Increased Costs, Etc. (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender Party of agreeing to make or of making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances or of agreeing to issue or of issuing or maintaining or participating in Letters of Credit or of agreeing to make or of making or maintaining Letter of Credit Advances (excluding, for purposes of this Section 2.10, any such increased costs resulting from (x) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.12 shall govern) and (y) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender Party is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party for such increased cost; provided, however, that a Lender Party claiming additional amounts under this Section 2.10(a) agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender Party, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender Party. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (b) If any Lender Party determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender Party or any corporation controlling such Lender Party and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender Party's commitment to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder and other commitments of such type or the issuance or maintenance of or participation in the Letters of Credit (or similar contingent obligations), then, upon demand by such Lender Party or such corporation (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party, from time to time as specified by such Lender Party, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender Party's commitment to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder or to the issuance or maintenance of or participation in any Letters of Credit. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (c) If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (i) each such Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.
41 (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; provided, however, that, before making any such demand, such Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. Section 2.11 Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.15), not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York, New York time) on the day when due (or, in the case of payments made by a Guarantor pursuant to Section 8.01, on the date of demand therefor) in U.S. dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account in same day funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause like funds to be distributed (i) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of principal, interest, commitment fees or any other Obligation then payable hereunder and under the Notes to more than one Lender Party, to such Lender Parties for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices ratably in accordance with the amounts of such respective Obligations then payable to such Lender Parties and (ii) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of any Obligation then payable hereunder to one Lender Party, to such Lender Party for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 10.07(d), from and after the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender Party assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. (b) If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations under the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the Advances to which, or the manner in which, such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each Lender Party ratably in accordance with such Lender Party's proportionate share of the principal amount of all outstanding Advances and the Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Advances or other Obligations owed to such Lender Party, and for application to such principal installments, as the Administrative Agent shall direct. (c) The Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender Party, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender Party is not made when due hereunder or, in the case of a Lender, under the Note held by such Lender, to charge from time to time against any or all of the Borrower's accounts with such Lender Party any amount so due. Each of the Lender Parties hereby agrees to notify the Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application shall be made by such Lender Party; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such charge.
42 (d) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate, of fees and Letter of Credit commissions shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate, fee or commission hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (e) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. (f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender Party hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Lender Party on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender Party. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Lender Party shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender Party together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender Party until the date such Lender Party repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. Section 2.12 Taxes. (a) Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all payments by any Loan Party to or for the account of any Lender Party or any Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.11 or the applicable provisions of such other Loan Document, if any, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender Party and each Agent, (x) taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings that are imposed on or measured by its overall net income and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof by the United States or by the state or foreign jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof under the laws of which such Lender Party or such Agent, as the case may be, is organized or, in the case of each Lender Party, such Lender Party's Applicable Lending Office is located or (y) any branch profit taxes imposed by the United States of America (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If any Loan Party shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender Party or any Agent, subject to Section 2.12(f), (i) the sum payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as may be necessary so that after such Loan Party and the Administrative Agent have made all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.12) such Lender Party or such Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make all such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) In addition, each Loan Party shall pay any present or future stamp, documentary, excise, property, intangible, mortgage recording or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made by such Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or from the execution,
43 delivery or registration of, performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes"). (c) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Loan Parties shall indemnify each Lender Party and each Agent for and hold them harmless against the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes imposed on or paid by such Lender Party or such Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender Party or such Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor, which written demand shall be accompanied by copies of the applicable documentation evidencing the amount of such taxes. (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the appropriate Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 10.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment, to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In the case of any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or on behalf of a Loan Party through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of a Loan Party by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Loan Party determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Loan Party shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of subsections (d) and (e) of this Section 2.12, the terms "United States person" shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code. (e) Each Lender Party organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender Party and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender Party in the case of each other Lender Party, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower (but only so long thereafter as such Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Administrative Agent and Borrower with two original properly completed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8IMY or W-8ECI, (in the case of a Lender Party that has certified in writing to the Administrative Agent that it is not (i) a "bank" (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code), (ii) a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) of any Loan Party or (iii) a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code), Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN,) as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender Party is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or, in the case of a Lender Party that has certified that it is not a "bank" as described above, certifying that such Lender Party is a foreign corporation, partnership, estate or trust. If the forms provided by a Lender Party at the time such Lender Party first becomes a party to this Agreement indicate a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender Party provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such forms; provided, however, that if, at the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender Party becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender Party assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) of this Section 2.12 in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender Party assignee on such date. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and
44 information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8IMY, W-8ECI or any successor, or the related certificate described above, that the applicable Lender Party reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender Party shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender Party has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate form, certificate or other document described in subsection (e) above (other than if such failure is due to a change in law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided or if such form, certificate or other document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender Party shall not be entitled to increased payment or indemnification under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 2.12 with respect to taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender Party become subject to taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, the Loan Parties shall take such steps as such Lender Party shall reasonably request to assist such Lender Party to recover such taxes. (g) If any Lender Party determines, in its sole discretion, that it has actually and finally realized by reason of the refund of any Taxes paid or reimbursed by any Loan Party pursuant to subsection (a) or (c) above in respect of payments under the Loan Documents, a current monetary benefit that it would otherwise not have obtained, and that would result in the total payments under this Section 2.12 exceeding the amount needed to make such Lender Party whole, such Lender Party shall pay to the Borrower or other Loan Party, as the case may be, with reasonable promptness following the date on which it actually realizes such benefit, an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of such benefit or the amount of such excess, net of all out-of-pocket expenses in securing such refund. Section 2.13 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender Party shall obtain at any time any payment, whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise (other than pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.12, 10.04 or 10.07), (a) on account of Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party hereunder and under the Notes at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party at such time (other than pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.12, 10.04 or 10.07) to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time obtained by all the Lender Parties at such time or (b) on account of Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender Party hereunder and under the Notes at such time (other than pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.12, 10.04 or 10.07) in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing to such Lender Party at such time (other than pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.12, 10.04 or 10.07) to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time obtained by all of the Lender Parties at such time, such Lender Party shall forthwith purchase from the other Lender Parties such participations in the Obligations due and payable or owing to them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender Party to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that, if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender Party, such purchase from each other Lender Party shall be rescinded and such other Lender Party shall repay to the purchasing Lender Party the purchase price to the extent of such Lender Party's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the purchase price paid to such Lender Party to (ii) the aggregate purchase price paid to all Lender Parties) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender Party's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such other Lender Party's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender Party
45 in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender Party so purchasing a participation from another Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.13 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender Party were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.15 Defaulting Lenders. (a) In the event that, at any time, (i) any Lender Party shall be a Defaulting Lender, (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall owe a Defaulted Advance to the Borrower and (iii) the Borrower shall be required to make any payment hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the account of such Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, set off and otherwise apply the Obligation of the Borrower to make such payment to or for the account of such Defaulting Lender against the obligation of such Defaulting Lender to make such Defaulted Advance. In the event that, on any date, the Borrower shall so set off and otherwise apply its obligation to make any such payment against the obligation of such Defaulting Lender to make any such Defaulted Advance on or prior to such date, the amount so set off and otherwise applied by the Borrower shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents an Advance by such Defaulting Lender made on the date under the Facility pursuant to which such Defaulted Advance was originally required to have been made pursuant to Section 2.01. Such Advance shall be considered, for all purposes of this Agreement, to comprise part of the Borrowing in connection with which such Defaulted Advance was originally required to have been made pursuant to Section 2.01, even if the other Advances comprising such Borrowing shall be Eurodollar Rate Advances on the date such Advance is deemed to be made pursuant to this subsection (a). The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent at any time the Borrower exercises its right of set-off pursuant to this subsection (a) and shall set forth in such notice (A) the name of the Defaulting Lender and the Defaulted Advance required to be made by such Defaulting Lender and (B) the amount set off and otherwise applied in respect of such Defaulted Advance pursuant to this subsection (a). Any portion of such payment otherwise required to be made by the Borrower to or for the account of such Defaulting Lender which is paid by the Borrower, after giving effect to the amount set off and otherwise applied by the Borrower pursuant to this subsection (a), shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as specified in subsection (b) or (c) of this Section 2.15.
46 (b) In the event that, at any time, (i) any Lender Party shall be a Defaulting Lender, (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall owe a Defaulted Amount to the Administrative Agent or any of the other Lender Parties and (iii) the Borrower shall make any payment hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent may, on its behalf or on behalf of such other Lender Parties and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, apply at such time the amount so paid by the Borrower to or for the account of such Defaulting Lender to the payment of each such Defaulted Amount to the extent required to pay such Defaulted Amount. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall so apply any such amount to the payment of any such Defaulted Amount on any date, the amount so applied by the Administrative Agent shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents payment, to such extent, of such Defaulted Amount on such date. Any such amount so applied by the Administrative Agent shall be retained by the Administrative Agent or distributed by the Administrative Agent to such other Lender Parties, ratably in accordance with the respective portions of such Defaulted Amounts payable at such time to the Administrative Agent and such other Lender Parties and, if the amount of such payment made by the Borrower shall at such time be insufficient to pay all Defaulted Amounts owing at such time to the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties, in the following order of priority: (i) first, to the Administrative Agent for any Defaulted Amount then owing to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as Administrative Agent; and (ii) second, to the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lender for any Defaulted Amounts then owing to them, in their capacities as such, ratably in accordance with such respective Defaulted Amounts then owing to the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lender; and (iii) third, to any other Lender Parties for any Defaulted Amounts then owing to such other Lender Parties, ratably in accordance with such respective Defaulted Amounts then owing to such other Lender Parties. Any portion of such amount paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender remaining, after giving effect to the amount applied by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this subsection (b), shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as specified in subsection (c) of this Section 2.15. (c) In the event that, at any time, (i) any Lender Party shall be a Defaulting Lender, (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall not owe a Defaulted Advance or a Defaulted Amount and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party shall be required to pay or distribute any amount hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the account of such Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower or such other Lender Party shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent to be held by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in escrow or the Administrative Agent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hold in escrow such amount otherwise held by it. Any funds held by the Administrative Agent in escrow under this subsection (c) shall be deposited by the Administrative Agent in an account with Citibank, N.A., in the name and under the control of the Administrative Agent, but subject to the provisions of this subsection (c). The terms applicable to such account, including the rate of interest payable with respect to the credit balance of such account from time to time, shall be Citibank, N.A.'s standard terms applicable to escrow accounts maintained with it. Any interest credited to such account from time to time shall be held by the Administrative Agent in escrow under, and applied by the Administrative Agent from time to time in accordance with the provisions of, this subsection (c). The Administrative Agent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, apply all funds so held in escrow from time to time to the extent necessary to make any Advances required to be made by such Defaulting Lender and to pay any amount payable by such Defaulting Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party, as and when such Advances or amounts are required to be made or paid
47 and, if the amount so held in escrow shall at any time be insufficient to make and pay all such Advances and amounts required to be made or paid at such time, in the following order of priority: (i) first, to the Administrative Agent for any amount then due and payable by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder in its capacity as Administrative Agent; (ii) second, to the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lender for any amounts then due and payable to them hereunder, in their capacities as such, by such Defaulting Lender, ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then due and payable to the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lender; (iii) third, to any other Lender Parties for any amount then due and payable by such Defaulting Lender to such other Lender Parties hereunder, ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then due and payable to such other Lender Parties; and (iv) fourth, to the Borrower for any Advance then required to be made by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to a Commitment of such Defaulting Lender. In the event that any Lender Party that is a Defaulting Lender shall, at any time, cease to be a Defaulting Lender, any funds held by the Administrative Agent in escrow at such time with respect to such Lender Party shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to such Lender Party and applied by such Lender Party to the Obligations owing to such Lender Party at such time under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents ratably in accordance with the respective amounts of such Obligations outstanding at such time. (d) The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.15 are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrower may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Defaulted Advance and that the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Defaulted Amount. Section 2.16 Evidence of Debt. (a) The Advances made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Advances made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the 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 Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender's Advances in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Advances and payments with respect thereto. (b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

(a) Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent, as applicable. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. (b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 3.01, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the relevant Agent or Agents shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the Effective Date specifying its objection thereto. Section 7.05 Notice of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to any Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless such Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default." The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Initial Lenders, shall take such action with respect to such Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article VI; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, it may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, in each case, in consultation with the Initial Lenders, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders. Section 7.06 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agents. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other
74 documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent herein, such Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person. Section 7.07 Indemnification of Agents. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Agent-Related Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse each Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by any Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower. The undertaking in this Section shall survive termination of the Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of each of the Agents. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 7.07 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender Party, its directors, shareholders or creditors and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. Section 7.08 Agents in Their Individual Capacity. CNAI, JPM and BofA and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates as though CNAI, JPM and BofA, as the case may be, were not an Agent or Issuing Bank hereunder, as the case may be, and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, each of CNAI, JPM and BofA and each of their respective Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that each of CNAI, JPM and BofA and their respective Affiliates shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, each of CNAI, JPM and BofA and their respective Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not an Agent, the Swing Line Lender or an Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" include CNAI, JPM and BofA in its individual capacity. Section 7.09 Successor Agent. Each Agent may resign from acting in such capacity upon 30 days' notice to the Lenders and the Borrower; provided that any such resignation by CNAI shall also constitute the resignation by CNAI as Issuing Bank. If an Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of such Agent, such Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and Issuing Bank and the term
75 "Agent" shall mean such successor agent, and the retiring Agent's appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated and in the case of the Administrative Agent, the retiring Issuing Bank's rights, powers and duties as such shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such retiring Agent or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, or any other Lender, other than the obligation of the successor Issuing Bank to issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or to make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring with respect to such Letters of Credit. After any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article VII and Section 10.04 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Section 7.10 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Advance shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether any Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Advances and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Agents and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Agents under Sections 2.08 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.08 and 10.04. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. Section 7.11 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with
76 any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) subject to Section 10.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders; (b) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 5.02(a); (c) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder or if all of such Person's assets are sold or liquidated as permitted under the terms of the Loan Documents and the proceeds thereof are distributed to the Borrower; and (d) to acquire, hold and enforce any and all Liens on Collateral granted by and of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such other powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders (acting on behalf of all the Lenders) will confirm in writing that the Administrative Agent's authority to release Liens or subordinate the interests of the Secured Parties in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 7.11. Section 7.12 Other Agents; Arrangers and Managers. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a "syndication agent," "book runner," "arranger," or "lead arranger" shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. ARTICLE VIII SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY Section 8.01 Subsidiary Guaranty. Each Guarantor, severally, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees (the undertaking by each Guarantor under this Article VIII being the "Guaranty") the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all of the Obligations of each of the other Loan Parties now or hereafter existing under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments or renewals of any or all of the foregoing Obligations), whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, interest, premium, fees, indemnification payments, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (such Obligations being the "Guaranteed Obligations"), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any of the other Secured Parties solely in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any of the other Loan Parties to the Administrative Agent or any of the other Secured Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such other Loan Party.
77 Section 8.02 Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party with respect thereto. The Obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any other Loan Party or whether any other Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of, and such Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to, any and all of the following: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise; (c) any taking, exchange, release or nonperfection of any Collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any Subsidiary Guaranty or any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (d) any manner of application of Collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any Collateral for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents, or any other property and assets of any other Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries; (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any other Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries; (f) any failure of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to disclose to any Loan Party any information relating to the financial condition, operations, properties or prospects of any other Loan Party now or hereafter known to the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party, as the case may be (such Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Secured Parties to disclose such information); (g) the failure of any other Person to execute this Guaranty or any other guarantee or agreement of the release or reduction of the liability of any of the other Loan Parties or any other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; or (h) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party) that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, such Guarantor, any other Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety other than payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations.
78 This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party or by any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Section 8.03 Waivers and Acknowledgments. (a) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property or assets subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any other Loan Party or any other Person or any Collateral. (b) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally waives any right to revoke this Guaranty, and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future. (c) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives (i) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by the Secured Parties which in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of such Guarantor or other rights to proceed against any of the other Loan Parties, any other guarantor or any other Person or any Collateral, and (ii) any defense based on any right of setoff or counterclaim against or in respect of such Guarantor's obligations hereunder. (d) Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in Section 8.02 and this Section 8.03 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Section 8.04 Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or may hereafter acquire against any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of its Obligations under this Guaranty or under any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party against such other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from such other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, until such time as all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, all of the Letters of Credit and all Secured Hedge Agreements shall have expired or been terminated and the Commitments shall have expired or terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the latest of (a) the payment in full in cash of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, (b) the latest date of expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit and all Secured Hedge Agreements, and (c) the Termination Date, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or to be held as Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. If (i) any Guarantor shall pay to the Administrative Agent all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of
79 the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, (iii) all Letters of Credit and all Secured Hedge Agreements shall have expired or been terminated, and (iv) the Termination Date shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties will, at such Guarantor's request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer of subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the payment made by such Guarantor.

Section 8.07 No Reliance. Each Guarantor has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Guaranty and each other Loan Document to which it is or is to be a party, and such Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from each other Loan Party on a continuing basis information pertaining to, and is now and on a continuing basis will be completely familiar with, the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties and prospects of such other Loan Party.

Section 9.02 Further Assurances. (a) Each Loan Party agrees that from time to time, at the expense of such Loan Party, such Loan Party will promptly execute and deliver, or otherwise authenticate, all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that may be necessary or desirable, or that any Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any pledge or security interest granted or purported to be granted by such Loan Party hereunder or to enable such Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral of such Loan Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Loan Party will promptly with respect to Collateral of such Loan Party: (i) if any such Collateral shall be evidenced by a promissory note or other instrument or chattel paper, upon request of the Administrative Agent, deliver and pledge to such Agent hereunder such note or instrument or chattel paper duly indorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Agent; (ii) execute or authenticate and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as any Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve the security interest granted or purported to be granted by such Loan Party hereunder; (iii) at the request of any Agent, deliver to such Agent for benefit of the Secured Parties certificates representing Pledged Collateral that constitutes certificated securities, accompanied by
84 undated stock or bond powers executed in blank; (iv) take all action necessary to ensure that such Agent has control of Pledged Collateral and of Collateral consisting of deposit accounts, electronic chattel paper, letter-of-credit rights and transferable records as provided in Sections 9-104, 9-105, 9-106 and 9-107 of the UCC and in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronics Transactions Act, as in effect in the jurisdiction governing such transferable record; (v) at the request of any Agent, take all necessary action to ensure that such Agent's security interest is noted on any certificate of ownership related to any Collateral evidenced by a certificate of ownership; (vi) at the reasonable request of any Agent, take commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Agent to be the beneficiary under all letters of credit that constitute Collateral, with the exclusive right to make all draws under such letters of credit, and with all rights of a transferee under Section 5-114(e) of the UCC; and (vii) deliver to such Agent evidence that all other action that such Agent may deem reasonably necessary or desirable in order to perfect and protect the security interest created by such Loan Party under this Agreement has been taken. From time to time upon reasonable request by any Agent, each Loan Party will, at such Loan Party's expense, cause to be delivered to such Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, an opinion of counsel, from outside counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Agent, as to such matters relating to the transactions contemplated by this Article IX as such Agent may reasonably request. (b) Each Loan Party hereby authorizes each Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, including, without limitation, one or more financing statements indicating that such financing statements cover all assets or all personal property (or words of similar effect) of such Loan Party, in each case without the signature of such Loan Party, and regardless of whether any particular asset described in such financing statements falls within the scope of the UCC or the granting clause of this Agreement. A photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law. Each Loan Party ratifies its authorization for each Agent to have filed such financing statements, continuation statements or amendments filed prior to the date hereof. (c) Each Loan Party will furnish to each Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral of such Loan Party and such other reports in connection with such Collateral as such Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail. (d) Notwithstanding subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 9.02, or any failure on the part of any Loan Party or any Agent to take any of the actions set forth in such subsections, the Liens and security interests granted herein shall be deemed valid, enforceable and perfected by entry of the Interim Order and the Final Order, as applicable. No financing statement, notice of lien, mortgage, deed of trust or similar instrument in any jurisdiction or filing office need be filed or any other action taken in order to validate and perfect the Liens and security interests granted by or pursuant to this Agreement, the Interim Order or the Final Order. Section 9.03 Rights of Lender; Limitations on Lenders' Obligations. (a) Subject to each Loan Party's rights and duties under the Bankruptcy Code (including Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code), and anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) each Loan Party shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in such Loan Party's Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (ii) the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Loan Party from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral and (iii) no Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor shall any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Loan Party thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.
85 (b) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (b), each Loan Party will continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due such Loan Party under the Accounts and Related Contracts. In connection with such collections, such Loan Party may take (and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the Administrative Agent's direction, will take) such action as such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the Accounts and Related Contracts; provided, however, that, subject to any requirement of notice provided in the DIP Financing Orders or in Section 6.01, the Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to notify the obligors under any Accounts and Related Contracts of the assignment of such Accounts and Related Contracts to the Administrative Agent and to direct such obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such Loan Party thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Loan Party, to enforce collection of any such Accounts and Related Contracts, to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Loan Party might have done, and to otherwise exercise all rights with respect to such Accounts and Related Contracts, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC. Upon and during the exercise by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders of any of the remedies described in the proviso of the immediately preceding sentence, (i) any and all amounts and proceeds (including, without limitation, instruments) received by such Loan Party in respect of the Accounts and Related Contracts of such Loan Party shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Loan Party and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be deposited in a collateral account maintained with the Administrative Agent and applied as provided in Section 9.07(b) and (ii) such Loan Party will not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Account or amount due on any Related Contract, release wholly or partly any obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon. No Loan Party will permit or consent to the subordination of its right to payment under any of the Accounts and Related Contracts to any other indebtedness or obligations of the obligor thereof. (c) Each Initial Lender shall have the right to make test verification of the Accounts (other than Accounts that any Loan Party is required to maintain as "classified") in any manner and through any medium that it considers advisable in its reasonable discretion, and each Loan Party agrees to furnish all such assistance and information as any Initial Lender may reasonably require in connection therewith. Section 9.04 Covenants of the Loan Parties with Respect to Collateral. Each Loan Party hereby covenants and agrees with the Administrative Agent that from and after the date of this Agreement and until the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations which are not then due and payable) are fully satisfied or cash collateralized: (a) Delivery and Control of Pledged Collateral. (i) All certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral shall be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto at the request of the Administrative Agent, and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations. (ii) With respect to any Pledged Collateral in which any Loan Party has any right, title or interest and that constitutes an uncertificated security, upon the request of the
86 Administrative Agent such Loan Party will cause the issuer thereof either (i) to register the Administrative Agent as the registered owner of such security or (ii) to agree in an authenticated record with such Loan Party and the Administrative Agent that such issuer will comply with instructions with respect to such security originated by the Administrative Agent without further consent of such Loan Party, such authenticated record to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. With respect to any Pledged Collateral in which any Loan Party has any right, title or interest and that is not an uncertificated security, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Loan Party will notify each such issuer of Pledged Equity that such Pledged Equity is subject to the security interest granted hereunder. (iii) Except as provided in Section 9.07, such Loan Party shall be entitled to receive all cash dividends paid in respect of the Initial Pledged Collateral (other than liquidating or distributing dividends) with respect to the Initial Pledged Equity. Any sums paid upon or in respect of any of the Pledged Equity upon the liquidation or dissolution of any issuer of any of the Initial Pledged Equity, any distribution of capital made on or in respect of any of the Initial Pledged Equity or any property distributed upon or with respect to any of the Initial Pledged Equity pursuant to the recapitalization or reclassification of the capital of any issuer of Initial Pledged Equity or pursuant to the reorganization thereof shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent to hold as collateral for the Secured Obligations. (iv) Except as provided in Section 9.07, such Loan Party will be entitled to exercise all voting, consent and corporate rights with respect to Pledged Equity; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast, consent given or right exercised or other action taken by such Loan Party which would impair the Pledged Collateral or which would be inconsistent in any material respect with or result in any violation of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or, without prior notice to the Administrative Agent, to enable or take any other action to permit any issuer of Pledged Equity to issue any stock or other equity securities of any nature or to issue any other securities convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any stock or other equity securities of any nature of any issuer of Pledged Equity other than issuances, transfers and grants to a Loan Party. (v) Such Loan Party shall not grant control over any investment property to any Person other than the Administrative Agent, except to the extent permitted pursuant to this Agreement. (vi) In the case of each Loan Party which is an issuer of Pledged Equity, such Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Pledged Equity issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it. (b) Maintenance of Records. Such Loan Party will keep and maintain, at its own cost and expense, satisfactory and complete records of the Collateral, in all material respects, including, without limitation, a record of all payments received and all credits granted with respect to the Collateral and all other material dealings concerning the Collateral. For the Administrative Agent's further security, each Loan Party agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have a property interest in all of such Loan Party's books and records pertaining to the Collateral and, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, such Loan Party shall deliver and turn over any such books and records to the Administrative Agent or to its representatives at any time on demand of the Administrative Agent. (c) Indemnification With Respect to Collateral. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by the Administrative Agent relating to any Collateral for any sum owing thereunder or
87 to enforce any provision of any Collateral, such Loan Party will save, indemnify and keep the Secured Parties harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by the Secured Parties by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability whatsoever of the obligor thereunder, arising out of a breach by such Loan Party of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to, or in favor of, such obligor or its successors from such Loan Party, and all such obligations of such Loan Party shall be and remain enforceable against and only against such Loan Party and shall not be enforceable against the Administrative Agent. (d) Limitation on Liens on Collateral. Such Loan Party will not create, permit or suffer to exist, and will defend the Collateral against and take such other action as is necessary to remove, any Lien on the Collateral except Liens permitted under Section 5.02(a) and will defend the right, title and interest of the Administrative Agent in and to all of such Loan Party's rights under the Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever other than claims or demands arising out of Liens permitted under Section 5.02(a). (e) As to Intellectual Property Collateral. (i) Except as set forth in the last sentence of this clause (i), with respect to each item of its Intellectual Property Collateral, each Loan Party agrees to take, at its expense, all necessary steps, including, without limitation, in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office and any other United States governmental authority, to (A) maintain the validity and enforceability of such Intellectual Property Collateral and maintain such Intellectual Property Collateral in full force and effect, and (B) pursue the registration and maintenance of each patent, trademark, or copyright registration or application, now or hereafter included in such Intellectual Property Collateral of such Loan Party, including, without limitation, the payment of required fees and taxes, the filing of responses to office actions issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office or other governmental authorities, the filing of applications for renewal or extension, the filing of affidavits under Sections 8 and 15 of the U.S. Trademark Act, the filing of divisional, continuation, continuation-in-part, reissue and renewal applications or extensions, the payment of maintenance fees and the participation in interference, reexamination, opposition, cancellation, infringement and misappropriation proceedings. Except to the extent permitted pursuant to this Agreement, no Loan Party shall, without the written consent of the Administrative Agent, discontinue use of or otherwise abandon any Intellectual Property Collateral, or abandon any right to file an application for patent, trademark, or copyright, unless such Loan Party shall have previously determined that such use or the pursuit or maintenance of such Intellectual Property Collateral is no longer desirable in the conduct of such Loan Party's business and that the loss thereof would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, in which case, such Loan Party will give notice quarterly of any such abandonment to the Administrative Agent. (ii) Each Loan Party shall take all steps which it or the Administrative Agent deems reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances to preserve and protect each item of its Intellectual Property Collateral, including, without limitation, maintaining the quality of any and all products or services used or provided in connection with any of the Trademarks, consistent with the quality of the products and services as of the date hereof, and taking all steps necessary to ensure that all licensed users of any of the Trademarks use such consistent standards of quality.
88 (iii) Each Loan Party agrees that should it obtain a material ownership interest in any item of the type set forth in Section 9.01(g) that is not on the date hereof a part of the Intellectual Property Collateral ("After-Acquired Intellectual Property") (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto, and (ii) any such After-Acquired Intellectual Property and, in the case of trademarks, the goodwill symbolized thereby, shall automatically become part of the Intellectual Property Collateral subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement with respect thereto. At the end of each quarter, each Loan Party shall give prompt written notice to the Administrative Agent identifying the After-Acquired Intellectual Property (other than patent applications and trade secrets, the disclosure of which shall not be required until a patent is issued) acquired during such quarter, and such Loan Party shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent with such written notice, or otherwise authenticate, an IP Security Agreement Supplement covering such After-Acquired Intellectual Property and any newly issued patents, which IP Security Agreement Supplement may be recorded with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office and any other governmental authorities necessary to perfect the security interest hereunder in such After-Acquired Intellectual Property. Section 9.05 Performance by Agent of the Loan Parties' Obligations. (a) Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent such Loan Party's attorney-in-fact after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, with full authority in the place and stead of such Loan Party and in the name of such Loan Party or otherwise, from time to time, in the Administrative Agent's discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation: (i) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) to ask for, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral, (iii) to receive, indorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause (i) or (ii) above, and (iv) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Administrative Agent with respect to any of the Collateral. (b) Administrative Agent May Perform. If any Loan Party fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Administrative Agent may, as the Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect the security interest granted hereunder in the Collateral or to protect the value thereof, but without any obligation to do so and without notice, itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Loan Party under Section 10.04. (c) Performance of such Loan Party's agreements as permitted under this Section 9.05 shall in no way constitute a violation of the automatic stay provided by Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and each Loan Party hereby waives applicability thereof. Moreover, the Administrative
89 Agent shall in no way be responsible for the payment of any costs incurred in connection with preserving or disposing of Collateral pursuant to Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code and the Collateral may not be charged for the incurrence of any such cost. Section 9.06 The Administrative Agent's Duties. (a) The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Parties' interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not any Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property. (b) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent may from time to time, when the Administrative Agent deems it to be necessary, appoint one or more subagents (each a "Subagent") for the Administrative Agent hereunder with respect to all or any part of the Collateral. In the event that the Administrative Agent so appoints any Subagent with respect to any Collateral, (i) the assignment and pledge of such Collateral and the security interest granted in such Collateral by each Loan Party hereunder shall be deemed for purposes of this Security Agreement to have been made to such Subagent, in addition to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the Secured Obligations of such Loan Party, (ii) such Subagent shall automatically be vested, in addition to the Administrative Agent, with all rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder with respect to such Collateral, and (iii) the term "Administrative Agent," when used herein in relation to any rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral, shall include such Subagent; provided, however, that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any such Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Administrative Agent. Section 9.07 Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: (a) Subject to and in accordance with the DIP Financing Orders, the Administrative Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and also may: (i) require each Loan Party to, and each Loan Party hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Administrative Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Administrative Agent and make it available to the Administrative Agent at a place and time to be designated by the Administrative Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (ii) without notice except as specified below or in the DIP Financing Orders, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Administrative Agent's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable; (iii) occupy any premises owned or leased by any of the Loan Parties where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to such Loan Party in respect of such occupation; and (iv) exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Loan Parties under or in connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (A) any and all rights of such Loan Party to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount
90 under, or performance of any provision of, the Accounts, the Related Contracts and the other Collateral, (B) withdraw, or cause or direct the withdrawal, of all funds with respect to the Account Collateral and (C) exercise all other rights and remedies with respect to the Accounts, the Related Contracts and the other Collateral, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC. Each Loan Party agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least 10 days' notice to such Loan Party of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. (b) Any cash held by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent and all cash proceeds received by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.08) in whole or in part by the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties against, all or any part of the Secured Obligations, in the following manner: (i) first, paid ratably to each Agent for any amounts then owing to such Agent pursuant to Section 10.04 or otherwise under the Loan Documents; and (ii) second, ratably (A) paid to the Secured Parties for any amounts then owing to them, in their capacities as such, in respect of the Secured Obligations ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then owing to such Secured Parties, (B) paid to each Lender Party (or its applicable Affiliate) for any amounts then owing to such Lender Party (or such Affiliate) in respect of Cash Management Obligations, Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Credit Card Obligations and (C) deposited as Collateral in the L/C Cash Collateral Account up to an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate Available Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, provided that in the event that any such Letter of Credit is drawn, the Administrative Agent shall pay to the Issuing Bank that issued such Letter of Credit the amount held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account in respect of such Letter of Credit, provided further that, to the extent that any such Letter of Credit shall expire or terminate undrawn and as a result thereof the amount of the Collateral in the L/C Cash Collateral Account shall exceed 105% of the aggregate Available Amount of all then outstanding Letters of Credit, such excess amount of such Collateral shall be applied in accordance with the remaining order of priority set out in this Section 9.07(b). (c) All payments received by any Loan Party under or in connection with the Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and after the occurrence, continuance and declaration of an Event of Default, shall be segregated from other funds of such Loan Party and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement). (d) The Administrative Agent may, without notice to any Loan Party except as required by law or by the DIP Financing Orders and at any time or from time to time, charge, set off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Secured Obligations against any funds held with respect to the Account Collateral or in any other deposit account.
91 (e) In the event of any sale or other disposition of any of the Intellectual Property Collateral of any Loan Party, the goodwill symbolized by any Trademarks subject to such sale or other disposition shall be included therein, and such Loan Party shall supply to the Administrative Agent or its designee such Loan Party's know-how and expertise, and documents and things relating to any Intellectual Property Collateral subject to such sale or other disposition, and such Loan Party's customer lists and other records and documents relating to such Intellectual Property Collateral and to the manufacture, distribution, advertising and sale of products and services of such Loan Party. (f) The Administrative Agent is authorized, in connection with any sale of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.07, to deliver or otherwise disclose to any prospective purchaser of the Pledged Collateral any information in its possession relating to such Pledged Collateral. (g) To the extent that any rights and remedies under this Section 9.07 would otherwise be in violation of the automatic stay of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, such stay shall be deemed modified, as set forth in the Interim Order or Final Order, as applicable, to the extent necessary to permit the Administrative Agent to exercise such rights and remedies.

In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, any security holders or creditors of the foregoing an Indemnitee or any other Person, or an Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated.

Each Lender Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender Party and its respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender Party and its respective Affiliates may have. Section 10.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower, the Guarantors, each Agent, the Initial Issuing Banks and the Initial Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender that such Initial Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each Agent and each Lender Party and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each Lender Party. Section 10.07 Successors and Assigns. (a) Each Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment or Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any or all Facilities, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender or an Approved Fund of any Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, the aggregate amount of the Commitments being assigned to such Eligible Assignee pursuant to such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $1,000,000 or, in the case of an assignment of the Revolving Credit Facility, $5,000,000 under each Facility for which a Commitment is being assigned, (iii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, and (iv) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and
98 deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Note or Notes (if any) subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. (b) Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, hereunder and (ii) the Lender or Issuing Bank assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than its rights under Sections 2.10, 2.12 and 10.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's or Issuing Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall cease to be a party hereto). (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, each Lender Party assignor thereunder and each assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties thereto and hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with any Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (ii) such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, such assigning Lender Party or any other Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be. (d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose (but only for this purpose) as the agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lender Parties and the Commitment under each Facility of, and principal amount of the Advances owing under each Facility to, each Lender Party from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lender Parties may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender Party hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Agent or any Lender Party at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
99 (e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender Party and an assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof and a copy of such Assignment and Acceptance to the Borrower and each other Agent. In the case of any assignment by a Lender, within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note or Notes (if any) a new Note to the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it under each Facility pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if any assigning Lender that had a Note or Notes prior to such assignment has retained a Commitment hereunder under such Facility, a new Note to the order of such assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 or A-2 hereto, as the case may be. (f) Each Issuing Bank may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the undrawn portion of its Letter of Credit Commitment at any time; provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee and (ii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. (g) Each Lender Party may sell participations to one or more Persons (other than any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender Party's obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitments) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender Party shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender Party shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender Party in connection with such Lender Party's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest (other than default interest) on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or release a substantial portion of the value of the Collateral or the value of the Guaranties and (vi) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the benefit of Section 2.12 to the same extent as if they were a Lender Party but, with respect to any particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender Party that sold the participation to such participant and only if such participant agrees to comply with Section 2.12(e) as though it were a Lender Party. (h) Any Lender Party may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender Party by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided, however, that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information received by it from such Lender Party in accordance with Section 10.09 hereof.
100 (i) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender Party may at any time (and without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower) create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such fund as security for such obligations or securities, provided, however, that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise. (k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender Party (a "Granting Lender") may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an "SPC") the option to provide all or any part of any Advance that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Advance, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Advance, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Advance pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of an Advance by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Advance were made by such Granting Lender.

In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior Debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, assign all or any portion of its interest in any Advance to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Advances to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This subsection (k) may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender, all or any part of whose Advances are being funded by the SPC at the time of such amendment. Section 10.08 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Each party consents to the publication by the Agents or any Lender Party of a tombstone or similar advertising material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Agents reserve the right to provide to industry trade organizations such necessary and customary information needed for inclusion in league table measurements. Section 10.10 Patriot Act Notice.(a) Each Lender Party and each Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender Party) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender Party or such Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by any Agents or any Lender Party in order to assist the Agents and the Lender Parties in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act.

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Amendment have the same meanings as specified in the Credit Agreement. (2) The Borrower has requested that the Required Lenders agree to amend certain provisions of the Credit Agreement as described herein. (3) The Initial Lenders and the Required Lenders have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions stated below, to amend the Credit Agreement as hereinafter set forth. SECTION 1.
