SECTION 2.     Waivers to the Credit Agreement.

Commencing with the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2020 and continuing through (and including) the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2020 (the “Waiver Period”), the Credit Agreement shall be deemed modified and amended to waive compliance by the Borrower with the provisions of Section 10.1(a)(i) and Section 10.1(a)(ii) of each of the Credit Agreement and Amended Credit Agreement and of Section 10.12(e) of the Amended Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Subject Provisions”), and no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall exist or arise under either of the Credit Agreement or Amended Credit Agreement as a result of the Borrower’s failure to comply with the Subject Provisions during the Waiver Period.

Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 14.7 of the Credit Agreement, the waiver set forth in this Section 2 shall be limited precisely as written, and nothing herein shall be deemed to (a) constitute a waiver of compliance by the Borrower with respect to (i) the Subject Provisions other than during the Waiver Period or (ii) any other term, provision or condition of the Loan Documents or any other instrument or agreement referred to in any of them, or (b) prejudice any right or remedy that any Lender may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or agreement referred to in any of them or under applicable laws other than in respect of the Subject Provisions during the Waiver Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the waiver of the Subject Provisions set forth herein shall not extend beyond the last day of the Waiver Period and such waiver shall be of no force or effect for any purpose other than in respect of the Subject Provisions during the Waiver Period (which waiver for such time period shall remain and continue) after the last day of the Waiver Period.

SECTION 3.     No Further Loans; Limitations on Letters of Credit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Amended Credit Agreement, from and after the Amendment Effective Date, (a) the Borrower may not request or borrow, and the Lenders shall have no obligation to make, any Revolving Credit Loans, (b) the Borrower may not request or borrow, and the Swingline Lenders shall have no obligation to make, any Swingline Loans, and (c) the Letter of Credit Obligations shall be limited to $3,000,000.

SECTION 4.     Pledge Agreement. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized by the Lenders to enter into a Pledge Agreement dated as of the date hereof and in the form attached as Exhibit H hereto (the “Pledge Agreement”) with the Borrower, the PNC Agent, and each of the Loan Parties identified as a Pledgor on Schedule 1 attached hereto. The terms and provisions of the Pledge Agreement that refer to the Secured Parties shall be binding on all Secured Parties to the same extent as if each Secured Party were a party thereto.

SECTION 5.     Intercreditor Agreement. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are hereby authorized by the Lenders to enter into an Intercreditor Agreement dated as of the date hereof and in the form attached as Exhibit I hereto (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) with the PNC Agent, the Borrower and the other parties thereto, and the Collateral Agent is authorized and appointed by the Lenders to act as “Collateral Agent” thereunder and the Administrative Agent is authorized and appointed by the Lenders to act as their “Authorized Representative” thereunder. The terms and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement that refer to the Secured Parties shall be binding on all Secured Parties to the same extent as if each Secured Party were a party thereto. The Intercreditor Agreement shall be treated as a Loan Document. The Borrower and each of the Guarantors acknowledge that the Agents are entering into the Intercreditor Agreement as of the Amendment Effective Date and that the Intercreditor Agreement, as it may be amended from time to time as reasonably agreed to by the Borrower, governs the relationships among the parties thereto with respect to the Collateral and use of the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 6.     Mortgage Collateral. Within fifteen (15) days after the date hereof the Borrower will provide to the Administrative Agent the BBA Proposal Package for each Borrowing Base Property and evidence of flood insurance for any Borrowing Base Property that is a Flood Hazard Property. The Borrower will also promptly provide to the Administrative Agent, and in any event not later than fifteen (15) days after the date on which the same shall be requested in writing to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent or a Lender, such other information reasonably requested by a Lender to complete its flood review and approval process. Promptly and in any event within sixty (60) days after the date hereof (subject to extension by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and without the need for approval from the Requisite Lenders) (the “Mortgage Recording Deadline”), the Borrower will (a) cause those Subsidiary Guarantors holding fee and leasehold interests in the Borrowing Base Properties described on Schedule BBP hereto (the “Initial Mortgaged Properties”) to provide to the Administrative Agent, for each Borrowing Base Property, those items required by the definition of Mortgage Collateral Deliverables (other than Appraisals, which shall be delivered within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the date hereof (subject to extension by the Administrative Agent and the PNC Agent in their sole discretion) and shall not be a condition to the recording of the applicable Mortgage), and Sections 9(g) and (i) hereof, and (b) provide to the Administrative Agent reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment in full of any and all title insurance premiums, title company service charges, record and lien search charges, filing fees and charges, mortgage recording taxes and intangible taxes incurred in connection with the issuance of the Mortgage Policies, Collateral diligence and the recordation of the Mortgages and Assignments of Leases on the Initial Mortgaged Properties.

To the extent that after the Amendment Effective Date and prior to the Mortgage Recording Deadline, (i) any of the Initial Mortgaged Properties fails to satisfy the Borrowing Base Conditions or (ii) the Borrower is unable to deliver the Mortgage Collateral Deliverables for any of the Initial Mortgaged Properties, then the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and the PNC Agent shall agree to substitute one or more different Properties in place of such affected Properties and release the Liens on the affected Properties in accordance with Sections 9.12, 9.15 and 10.15 of the Amended Credit Agreement (except that only the consent of the Administrative Agent and the PNC Agent shall be required for such substitution and release) so long as such substitute Properties have an equal or greater aggregate value (measured by the Annual EBITDA of such Properties for the period of four (4) fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2020) than the affected Properties and satisfy the Borrowing Base Conditions, and for which the Borrower has delivered the Mortgage Collateral Deliverables and the Pledged Collateral Deliverables, as further provided in Section 10.15(b)(ii) of the Amended Credit Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the PNC Agent may release Surplus Properties from the Borrowing Base Properties in accordance with Section 10.15(b)(i) of the Amended Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Administrative Agent and the PNC Agent may elect to record the Mortgage with respect to a Borrowing Base Property despite the failure of the Borrower to deliver all of the Mortgage Collateral Deliverables for such Property so long as the items described in clauses (b) and (d) of the definition of Mortgage Collateral Deliverables have been delivered and in such event, such Borrowing Base Property shall be deemed to satisfy the Mortgage Collateral Deliverables requirement. To the extent the Borrower is unable to either (x) obtain a Mortgage Policy for a Borrowing Base Property or (y) record such Mortgages and Assignment of Leases within such sixty (60) day period due to the closure of the applicable local recording or filing office, the Administrative Agent shall grant one or more extensions of such sixty (60) day period for the delivery of such Mortgage Policy and/or to record such Mortgages and Assignment of Leases as reasonably required to account for such closure and without the need for approval from the Requisite Lenders.

SECTION 7.     Amendment Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of each Lender that consents to this Amendment by delivering to the Administrative Agent an executed counterpart of this Amendment (each, a “Consenting Lender”) a consent fee in an amount separately agreed by the Borrower in its fee letter with the Administrative Agent dated as of July 23, 2020, payable on the, and subject to the occurrence of the, Amendment Effective Date.

In no event shall any Lender be deemed to be an Affiliate of the Borrower.

“Agent” means Bank of America in its capacity as Administrative Agent, each Senior Managing Agent, each Co-Agent, and each successor agent appointed pursuant to the terms of Article XII of this Agreement.

“Agent Party” has the meaning assigned to it in Section 14.8(d).

“Agreement” is defined in the preamble hereto.

If a Leverage Grid Event occurs, the Applicable Margin shall be determined using the Leverage Based Pricing Grids below.

(b)     From and after a Leverage Grid Event (except as otherwise provided in the last paragraph of this definition), with respect to each Loan, the respective percentages per annum determined, as of the times provided herein, based on the range into which the Total Leverage Ratio then falls, in accordance with the following tables (such tables, the “Leverage Based Pricing Grids”):

(i)     For Revolving Credit Loans:

(ii)     For Term Loans:

2.1     Committed Loans.

(a)     Availability of Term Loans. Pursuant to the Existing Term Loan Agreement, the Term Lenders thereunder made term loans to the Borrower and the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such term loans on the Closing Date is $270,000,000 (the “Existing Term Loans”). Such Existing Term Loans shall continue to be outstanding under this Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Term Lender hereby severally and not jointly agrees to make term loans (each individually, a “Term Loan” and, collectively, the “Term Loans”), in Dollars, to the Borrower on the Initial Funding Date to refinance the Existing Term Loans and for other permitted purposes as requested by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.1(c) (the “Term Loan Borrowing”); provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) shall not exceed the Term Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans from any Term Lender to the Borrower shall not exceed such Lender’s Term Commitment. All Term Loans comprising the same Borrowing under this Agreement shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their then respective Pro Rata Shares for the Term Facility, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make a Term Loan hereunder nor shall the Term Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any such failure. The Term Loans, or any portion thereof, may be either a Base Rate Loan or a Eurodollar Rate Loan, as determined by the Borrower in any Notice of Committed Borrowing, any Notice of Conversion/Continuation or as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The Term Commitments, with respect to the making of the Term Loans (and not with respect to the obligations of the Lenders to convert or continue any Term Loans), shall expire on the Initial Funding Date. The Borrower may not reborrow the Term Loans following any repayment thereof.

(b)     Availability of Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby severally and not jointly agrees to make revolving loans (each individually, a “Revolving Credit Loan” and, collectively, the “Revolving Credit Loans”), in Dollars, to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Credit Period, in an amount not to exceed such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Availability at such time. All Revolving Credit Loans comprising the same Borrowing under this Agreement shall be made by the Revolving Credit Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their then respective Pro Rata Shares for the Revolving Credit Facility, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder nor shall the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any such failure. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower or applicable Qualified Borrower may repay any outstanding Revolving Credit Loan on any day which is a Business Day and any amounts so repaid may be reborrowed, up to the amount available under this Section 2.1(b) at the time of such Borrowing, until the Business Day next preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date. Each requested Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans funded on any Funding Date shall be in a principal amount of at least $1,500,000; provided, however, that if the Revolving Credit Availability at the time of such requested Borrowing is less than $1,500,000, then the requested Borrowing shall be for the total amount of the Revolving Credit Availability.< Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, from and after the Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower may not request or borrow, and the Lenders shall have no obligation to make, any Revolving Credit Loans. >

(c)     Notice of Committed Borrowing. When the Borrower or applicable Qualified Borrower desires to borrow under this Section 2.1, it shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Committed Borrowing, signed by it (i) no later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the proposed Funding Date, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (ii) no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding Date, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Such Notice of Committed Borrowing shall specify (i) whether such Borrowing is a Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans, (ii) the proposed Funding Date (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the amount of the proposed Borrowing, (iv) the Revolving Credit Availability or remaining unused Term Commitments, as applicable, as of the date of such Notice of Committed Borrowing, (v) whether the proposed Borrowing will be of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, (vi) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the requested Eurodollar Interest Period and (vii) instructions for the disbursement of the proceeds of the proposed Borrowing. In lieu of delivering such a Notice of Committed Borrowing (except with respect to a Borrowing of Committed Loans on the Initial Funding Date), the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower may give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice of any proposed Borrowing by the time required under this Section 2.1(c), if the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower confirms such notice by delivery of the Notice of Committed Borrowing to the Administrative Agent by facsimile transmission promptly, but in no event later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the same day. Any Notice of Committed Borrowing (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) given pursuant to this Section 2.1(c) shall be irrevocable.

(d)     Making of Loans.

(i)     Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Committed Borrowing under Section 2.1(c) (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof), the Administrative Agent shall notify each applicable Lender by facsimile transmission, or other similar form of written transmission, of the proposed Borrowing (which notice to the Lenders, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, shall be at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding Date for such Loans). Each Lender shall deposit an amount equal to its applicable Pro Rata Share (if any) of the Borrowing requested by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower with the Administrative Agent at its office in New York, New York, in immediately available funds in Dollars not later than 12:00 noon (New York time), or in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans for which the Notice of Committed Borrowing was given on such Funding Date, 2:00 p.m. (New York time), on the respective Funding Date. Subject to the fulfillment of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.1 or Section 6.2, as applicable, the Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such amounts received by it available to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s office in New York, New York on such Funding Date (or on the date received if later than such Funding Date) and shall disburse such proceeds in accordance with the Borrower’s or the applicable Qualified Borrower’s disbursement instructions set forth in the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing. The failure of any Lender to deposit the amount described above with the Administrative Agent on the applicable Funding Date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder to make its Committed Loan on such Funding Date. In the event the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.1 or 6.2 are not fulfilled as of the proposed Funding Date for any Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly return, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount deposited by each Lender to such Lender.

(ii)     Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender on the Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Funding Date (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans for which the Notice of Committed Borrowing was given on such Funding Date, by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on such Funding Date) in respect of any Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to fund its Committed Loan requested to be made on such Funding Date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has funded its Committed Loan and is depositing the proceeds thereof with the Administrative Agent on the Funding Date therefor, and the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, disburse a corresponding amount to the Borrower on the applicable Funding Date. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing and the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing shall be as requested by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing. This Section 2.1(d)(ii) does not relieve any Lender of its obligation to make its Committed Loan on any applicable Funding Date.

(e)     Incremental Facilities. On one or more occasions at any time after the Closing<Covenant Compliance> Date, the Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request (A) an increase to the existing Revolving Credit Commitments (any such increase, the “New Revolving Credit Commitments”) and/or (B) the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “New Term Commitments”, together with the New Revolving Credit Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”), by up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $500,000,000 for all Incremental Commitments (so that the sum of the Maximum Revolving Credit Amount plus the principal amount of Term Commitments made hereunder does not exceed $1,500,000,000). Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that such Incremental Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and/or its Affiliates shall use commercially reasonable efforts, with the assistance of the Borrower, to arrange a syndicate of Lenders or other Persons that are Eligible Assignees willing to hold the requested Incremental Commitments; provided that (x) any Incremental Commitments on any Increased Amount Date shall be in the minimum aggregate amount of $10,000,000, (y) any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Incremental Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide an Incremental Commitment, and (z) any Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, a “New Revolving Credit Lender” or “New Term Lender,” as applicable) to whom any portion of such Incremental Commitment shall be allocated shall be subject to the approval of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and, in the case of a New Revolving Credit Commitment, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender (each of which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless such New Revolving Credit Lender is an existing Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) with a Revolving Credit Commitment at such time or such New Term Lender is an existing Lender or an Affiliate of an existing Lender.

The terms and provisions of any New Revolving Credit Commitments shall be identical to the existing Revolving Credit Commitments. The terms and provisions of any New Term Commitments and any New Term Loans shall (a) provide that the maturity date of any New Term Loan that is a separate tranche shall be no earlier than the Term Maturity Date and shall not have any scheduled amortization payments, (b) share ratably in any prepayments of the existing Term Facility, unless the Borrower and the New Term Lenders in respect of such New Term Loans elect lesser payments and (c) otherwise be identical to the existing Term Loans or reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and each New Term Lender.

The effectiveness of any Incremental Commitments and the availability of any borrowings under any such Incremental Commitments shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent: (x) after giving pro forma effect to such Incremental Commitments and borrowings and the use of proceeds thereof, (i) no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall exist and (ii) as of the last day of the most recent calendar quarter for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 8.2, the Borrower would have been in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 10.1 and Section 10.12; (y) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower in any Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects on the effective date of such Incremental Commitments except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date); and (z) the Administrative Agent shall have received each of the following, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent: (i) if not previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, copies certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of all corporate or other necessary action taken by the Borrower to authorize such Incremental Commitments; and (ii) a customary opinion of counsel to the Borrower (which may be in substantially the same form as delivered on the Closing Date and may be delivered by internal counsel of the Borrower), and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (iii) if requested by any Lender, new Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any new Lender, and replacement Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any existing Lenders.

On any Increased Amount Date on which New Revolving Credit Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (a) each of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall assign to each of the New Revolving Credit Lenders, and each of the New Revolving Credit Lenders shall purchase from each of the Revolving Credit Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Credit Loans will be held by existing Revolving Credit Lenders and New Revolving Credit Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such New Revolving Credit Commitments to the Revolving Credit Commitments, (b) each New Revolving Credit Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Credit Commitment and each Loan made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Credit Loan and (c) each New Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Lender with respect to its New Revolving Credit Commitment and all matters relating thereto.

On any Increased Amount Date on which any New Term Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each New Term Lender shall make a Loan to the Borrower (a “New Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its New Term Commitment, and (ii) each New Term Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the New Term Commitment and the New Term Loans made pursuant thereto.

The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly upon receipt of the Borrower’s notice of each Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof (y) the New Revolving Credit Commitments and the New Revolving Credit Lenders or the New Term Commitments and the New Term Lenders, as applicable, and (z) in the case of each notice to any Revolving Credit Lender, the respective interests in such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this paragraph.

The fees payable by Borrower upon any such increase in the Commitments shall be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and Borrower at the time of such increase.

The Incremental Commitments shall be evidenced pursuant to one or more Additional Credit Extension Amendments executed and delivered by the Borrower, the New Revolving Credit Lenders or New Term Lenders, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register. Each Additional Credit Extension Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.1(e).

Each Swingline Loan shall be due and payable on the earliest of (A) 10 days from and including the date of the applicable Swingline Borrowing, (B) the date of the next Revolving Credit Borrowing or (C) the Revolving Credit Termination Date. If, and to the extent, any Swingline Loans shall be outstanding on the date of any Revolving Credit Borrowing, such Swingline Loans shall first be repaid from the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Borrowing prior to the disbursement of the same to the Borrower or the Qualified Borrower, as applicable. If, and to the extent, a Revolving Credit Borrowing is not requested prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date or the end of the 10 day period after a Swingline Borrowing, or unless the Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lenders prior to 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the fourth (4th) Business Day after the Swingline Borrowing that the Borrower intends to reimburse the applicable Swingline Lender for the amount of such Swingline Borrowing with funds other than proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the amount of the applicable Swingline Loan then outstanding, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay such Swingline Loan to the applicable Swingline Lender. In addition, if (x) the Borrower does not repay the Swingline Loan on or prior to the end of such 10 day period, or (y) a Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall have occurred during such 10 day period, the applicable Swingline Lender may, at any time, in its sole discretion, by written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, demand repayment of its Swingline Loans by way of a Revolving Credit Borrowing, in which case the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the amount of such Swingline Loans then outstanding, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay such Swingline Loans to the applicable Swingline Lender. Any Revolving Credit Borrowing which is deemed requested by the Borrower in accordance with this Section 2.9(b)(iii) is hereinafter referred to as a “Mandatory Borrowing”. Each Revolving Credit Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make Revolving Credit Loans promptly upon receipt of notice from the applicable Swingline Lender of any such deemed request for a Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentences and on the date such notice is received by such Lender (or the next Business Day if such notice is received after 12:00 noon (New York City time)) notwithstanding (I) that the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount of Revolving Credit Borrowings otherwise required hereunder, (II) whether any conditions specified in Section 6.2 are then satisfied, (III) whether a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default then exists, (IV) failure of any such deemed request for a Revolving Credit Borrowing to be made by the time otherwise required in Section 2.1, (V) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing (provided that such date must be a Business Day), or (VI) any termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments immediately prior to such Mandatory Borrowing or contemporaneously therewith; provided, however, that no Revolving Credit Lender shall be obligated to make Revolving Credit Loans in respect of a Mandatory Borrowing if a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default then exists and the applicable Swingline Loan was made by the applicable Swingline Lender without receipt of a written Notice of Committed Borrowing in the form specified in subclause (i) above or after the Administrative Agent has delivered a notice of Potential Event of Default or Event of Default which has not been rescinded.

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

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

(d)     Replacement of a Swingline Lender.

(i)     A Swingline Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Swingline Lender and the successor Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of a Swingline Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all interest accrued for the account of the replaced Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.9(c). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Swingline Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans to be made thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to include such successor or to any previous Swingline Lender, or such successor and all previous Swingline Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of a Swingline Lender hereunder, the replaced Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to make additional Swingline Loans.

(ii)    Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Swingline Lender, any Swingline Lender may resign as a Swingline Lender at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Swingline Lender shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.9(d)(i) above.

2.10     Qualified Borrowers. The Borrower may, at any time or from time to time, request that one or more Qualified Borrowers be added to this Agreement by notifying the Administrative Agent thereof in substantially the form of Exhibit O hereto (including the jurisdiction of formation thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender. Borrower shall, or shall cause such Qualified Borrower to, deliver all documents required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 6.1 and 6.2(d) with respect to a proposed Qualified Borrower, including, without limitation, copies of all Organizational Documents, good standing certificates (if applicable), and resolutions, each of which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Following the giving of any request pursuant to this Section 2.10, if the request for such Qualified Borrower obligates the Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, the Borrower shall, promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, supply such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order for the Administrative Agent or such Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with the results of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations. Upon delivery of the documentation and information required above to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent, the proposed Qualified Borrower shall become a Qualified Borrower under this Agreement and the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders (a “New Qualified Borrower Notice”). <

2.11     <Secured Portion and Unsecured Portion.>

<(a)     On the Amendment Effective Date, in order to accommodate the establishment of the Secured Portion and the Unsecured Portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolving Credit Facility will be identified in two parts as the Secured Portion of the Revolving Credit Facility and the Unsecured Portion of the Revolving Credit Facility. Each Revolving Credit Lender will hold the Secured Portion of the Revolving Credit Facility and the Unsecured Portion of the Revolving Credit Facility ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Facility. Schedule 2.11 attached hereto sets forth the Secured Portion and the Unsecured Portion of the Revolving Credit Facility for each Lender as of the Amendment Effective Date. Other than with respect to the Collateral, the voluntary prepayments set forth in Section 4.1(a) and the mandatory prepayments set forth in Section 4.1(c), all other payment and interest terms (including Interest Periods) applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans will be ratably applicable to both the Secured Portion and the Unsecured Portion thereof, and any partial assignment of the Revolving Credit Facility must be made as a proportionate assignment of both the Secured Portion and the Unsecured Portion thereof.>

<(b)     On the Amendment Effective Date, in order to accommodate the establishment of the Secured Portion and the Unsecured Portion of the Term Facility, the Term Facility will be identified in two parts as the Secured Portion of the Term Facility and the Unsecured Portion of the Term Facility. Each Term Lender will hold the Secured Portion of the Term Facility and the Unsecured Portion of the Term Facility ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of the Term Facility. Schedule 2.11 attached hereto sets forth the Secured Portion and the Unsecured Portion of the Term Facility for each Lender as of the Amendment Effective Date. Other than with respect to the Collateral, the voluntary prepayments set forth in Section 4.1(a) and the mandatory prepayments set forth in Section 4.1(c), all other payment and interest terms (including Interest Periods) applicable to the Term Loans will be ratably applicable to both the Secured Portion and the Unsecured Portion thereof, and any partial assignment of the Term Facility must be made as a proportionate assignment of both the Secured Portion and the Unsecured Portion thereof.>

<(c)     Upon the occurrence of the Security Release Trigger, the Facilities will cease to be identified in two parts as the Secured Portion and the Unsecured Portion, and all Secured Obligations shall be Obligations and all Obligations will thereafter automatically be identified and treated solely as the Unsecured Portion, and all provisions of the Loan Documents relating to the Borrowing Base Properties shall cease to be effective.>

3.1     Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.1(c)(ii), the each Issuing Bank hereby agrees to issue for the account of the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower one or more Letters of Credit, subject to the following provisions:

(a)     Types and Amounts. An Issuing Bank shall not have any obligation to issue, amend or extend, and shall not issue, amend or extend, any Letter of Credit at any time:

(i)     if the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Issuing Bank, after giving effect to the issuance, amendment or extension of the Letter of Credit requested hereunder, shall exceed any limit imposed by law or regulation upon such Issuing Bank;

(ii)     if, immediately after giving effect to the issuance, amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit, (1) the Letter of Credit Obligations at such time would exceed $50,000,000<3,000,000> with respect to all Letters of Credit, or (2) the Revolving Credit Obligations at such time would exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit Amount at such time, or (3) the aggregate amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank at any time would exceed its Letter of Credit Commitment at such time (unless otherwise agreed by such Issuing Bank), or (4) such Issuing Bank’s Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment, or (5) one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Sections 6.1 or 6.2, as applicable, would not on such date be satisfied, unless such conditions are thereafter satisfied and written notice of such satisfaction is given to such Issuing Bank by the Administrative Agent (and such Issuing Bank shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 6.1 or 6.2, as applicable, have been satisfied);

(iii)     which has an expiration date later than the first anniversary of the then Revolving Credit Termination Date;

(iv)     which is in a currency other than Dollars;

(v)     (A) where the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit is a Sanctioned Person, (B) to secure any transaction or the undertaking of any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory, that at the time of such issuance is the subject of any Sanctions or (C) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement;

(vi)     if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; or

(vii)     if the issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Administrative Agent (and/or any other Lender or Affiliate of a Lender designated by the Borrower, with such Lender’s consent, to issue a Letter of Credit) are not obligated or permitted pursuant to any of the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3.1(a) to issue a Letter of Credit but another Lender designated by the Borrower, with such Lender’s consent, to issue such Letter of Credit (a “Replacement Issuing Bank”) is not prohibited from issuing such Letter of Credit pursuant to any of the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3.1(a), then the Replacement Issuing Bank shall, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, issue such Letter of Credit. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank with the consent of such Issuing Bank; provided that the Borrower shall not reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank if, after giving effect of such reduction, the conditions set forth in clause (ii) above shall not be satisfied.

(b)     Conditions. In addition to being subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent contained in Sections 6.1 and 6.2, as applicable, the obligation of an Issuing Bank to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit is subject to the satisfaction in full of the following conditions:

(i)     if the Issuing Bank so requests, the Borrower shall have executed and delivered to such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent a Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement and Application and such other documents and materials as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof; it being agreed that in the event of any inconsistencies between this Agreement and such Letter of Credit Agreement and Application, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; and

(ii)     the terms of the proposed Letter of Credit shall be satisfactory to the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion.

(c)     Issuance of Letters of Credit. (i) The Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank written notice (a “Letter of Credit Notice”) that it requires the issuance of a Letter of Credit not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third (3rd) Business Day preceding the requested date for issuance thereof under this Agreement. Such notice shall be irrevocable unless and until such request is denied by the applicable Issuing Bank and shall specify (A) that the requested Letter of Credit is a Standby Letter of Credit, (B) that such Letter of Credit is solely for the account of the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower, (C) the stated amount of the Letter of Credit requested, (D) the effective date (which shall be a Business Day) of issuance of such Letter of Credit, (E) the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall be a Business Day and no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the first anniversary of the then scheduled Revolving Credit Termination Date), (F) the Person for whose benefit such Letter of Credit is to be issued, (G) other relevant terms of such Letter of Credit, (H) the Revolving Credit Availability at such time, and (I) the amount of the then outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations.

(ii)     The Borrower or such Qualified Borrower shall select one or more Lenders with a Letter of Credit Commitment to act as the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit, which selection shall be in the sole discretion of the Borrower. If such Issuing Bank is unable or declines to issue the Letter of Credit, the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower shall select an alternative Issuing Bank with such alternative Issuing Bank’s written consent to issue such Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts, to the extent practicable, to cause the Letters of Credit to be issued by the Issuing Banks on a proportionate basis in accordance with their proportionate share of the Letter of Credit Commitments, although, for the avoidance of doubt, no single Letter of Credit will be required to be issued by more than one Issuing Bank unless the amount of such Letter of Credit will exceed the available Letter of Credit Commitment of the applicable Issuing Bank (unless otherwise agreed by such Issuing Bank).

(iii)     The selected Issuing Bank (if not the Administrative Agent) shall give the Administrative Agent written notice, or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, of the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit.

(iv)    If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Notice, the Issuing Bank shall agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Business Day immediately preceding the first anniversary of Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided, however, that the Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 3.1(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Credit Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6.2 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.

(d)     Reimbursement Obligations; Duties of Issuing Banks and other Lenders.

(i)     Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in any Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement, if an Issuing Bank shall make any disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Bank in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation by paying to the Issuing Bank an amount equal to such Reimbursement Obligation not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower receives notice of such disbursement, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time (such date, the “Reimbursement Date”), provided that the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.1 that such payment be financed with a Base Rate Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s or the applicable Qualified Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Base Rate Borrowing.

Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower fails to timely reimburse the Issuing Bank on the Honor Date, 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 Lender’s applicable Pro Rate<Rata> Share thereof. In such event, the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility of Base Rate Loans 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 2.1(b) for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the Revolving Credit Availability and the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 (other than the delivery of a Notice of Committed Borrowing). Any notice given by the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.1(d)(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)     The Issuing Bank shall give the Administrative Agent written notice, or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, of all drawings under a Letter of Credit and the payment (or the failure to pay when due) by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower on account of a Reimbursement Obligation (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit by telegram, facsimile transmission or similar transmission to each Revolving Credit Lender).

(iii)     No action taken or omitted in good faith by an Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit shall put such Issuing Bank under any resulting liability to any Lender, the Borrower or Qualified Borrower or, so long as it is not issued in violation of Section 3.1(a), relieve any Revolving Credit Lender of its obligations hereunder to such Issuing Bank. Solely as between the Issuing Banks and the other Revolving Credit Lenders, in determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to the other Lenders other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under a respective Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear on their face to comply with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

(e)     Participations. (i) Immediately upon issuance by an Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.1, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from that Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit to the extent of such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share, including, without limitation, all obligations of the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower with respect thereto (other than amounts owing to the Issuing Bank under Section 3.1(g)) and any security therefor and guaranty pertaining thereto.

(ii)     If any Issuing Bank makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower does not repay such amount to the Issuing Bank on the Reimbursement Date, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each other Revolving Credit Lender, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of such payment (net of that portion of such payment, if any, made by such Issuing Bank in its capacity as an issuer of a Letter of Credit), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Issuing Bank such amounts received by it, and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for such Issuing Bank’s account, pursuant to this Section 3.1(e). If a Revolving Credit Lender does not make its Pro Rata Share of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent, such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank, forthwith on demand, such amount together with interest thereon at the greater of the Base Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. The failure of any Revolving Credit Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share of any such payment shall neither relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank such other Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any payment on the date such payment is to be made nor increase the obligation of any other Revolving Credit Lender to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(iii)     Whenever an Issuing Bank receives a payment on account of a Reimbursement Obligation, including any interest thereon, as to which the Administrative Agent has previously received payments from any other Revolving Credit Lender for the account of such Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 3.1(e), such Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each other Revolving Credit Lender an amount equal to such other Revolving Credit Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share thereof. Each such payment shall be made by such reimbursed Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, on the Business Day on which such Person receives the funds paid to such Person pursuant to the preceding sentence, if received prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on such Business Day, and otherwise on the next succeeding Business Day.

(iv)     Upon the written request of any Revolving Credit Lender, the Issuing Banks shall furnish such requesting Revolving Credit Lender copies of any Letter of Credit, Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement, and related amendment to which such Issuing Bank is party and such other documentation as reasonably may be requested by the requesting Revolving Credit Lender.

(v)     The obligations of a Revolving Credit Lender to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Issuing Bank with respect to a Letter of Credit shall be irrevocable, shall not be subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever except willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Issuing Bank as determined in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction, and shall be honored in accordance with this Article III (irrespective of the satisfaction of the conditions described in Sections 6.1 and 6.2, as applicable) under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

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

(B)     the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit or any transferee of a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transactions between the account party and beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit<)>;

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

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

(E)     any failure by that Issuing Bank to make any reports required pursuant to Section 3.1(h) or the inaccuracy of any such report; or

(F)     the occurrence of any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default.

(f)     Payment of Reimbursement Obligations. (i) The Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower unconditionally agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank, in Dollars, the amount of all Reimbursement Obligations, interest and other amounts payable to such Issuing Bank under or in connection with the Letters of Credit when such amounts are due and payable, irrespective of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against any Issuing Bank or any other Person.

(ii)     In the event any payment by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower received by an Issuing Bank with respect to a Letter of Credit and distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders on account of their participations is thereafter set aside, avoided or recovered from such Issuing Bank in connection with any receivership, liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding, each Revolving Credit Lender which received such distribution shall, upon demand by such Issuing Bank, contribute such Revolving Credit Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of the amount set aside, avoided or recovered together with interest at the rate required to be paid by such Issuing Bank upon the amount required to be repaid by it.

(g)     Letter of Credit Fee Charges. In connection with each Letter of Credit, Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower each hereby covenants to pay the following fees each payable quarterly in arrears (on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter following the issuance of each Letter of Credit): (1) to the Administrative Agent, a fee (in Dollars) for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders, computed daily on the amount of the Letter of Credit issued and outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the “Banks’ L/C Fee Rate” (as hereinafter defined) and (2) to the applicable Issuing Bank, a fee (in Dollars), for the Issuing Bank’s own account, computed daily on the amount of the Letter of Credit issued and outstanding at a rate per annum equal to 0.125%. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Banks’ L/C Fee Rate” shall mean, at any time, a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans. It is understood and agreed that the last installment of the fees provided for in this paragraph (g) with respect to any particular Letter of Credit shall be due and payable on the first Business Day of the fiscal quarter following the return, undrawn, or cancellation of such Letter of Credit. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Bank, solely for its own account, the standard charges assessed by such Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, administration, amendment and payment or cancellation of Letters of Credit and such compensation in respect of such Letters of Credit for the Borrower’s account as may be agreed upon by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower and such Issuing Bank from time to time.

(h)     Letter of Credit Reporting Requirements. Each Issuing Bank shall, no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day following the last day of each calendar month, provide to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, a schedule of Standby Letters of Credit issued as Letters of Credit, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, setting forth the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding to it at the end of each month and, to the extent not otherwise provided in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1(c)(ii), any information requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower relating to the date of issue, account party, amount, expiration date and reference number of each Letter of Credit issued by it.

(i)     Indemnification; Exoneration. (i) In addition to all other amounts payable to an Issuing Bank, the Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower each, jointly and severally, hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and save the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, and each other Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, penalties, damages, losses (other than loss of profits), costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses but excluding taxes) which the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, or such other Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit other than as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (B) the failure of the Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under such Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority.

(ii)     As between the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower on the one hand and the Lenders on the other hand, the Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of the Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, subject to the provisions of the Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreements, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall not be responsible for: (A) the form, validity, legality, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of the Letters of Credit even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (B) the validity, legality 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; (C) failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to duly comply with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (D) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (E) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (F) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (G) the misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; and (H) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the other Lenders.

(j)     Replacement of an Issuing Bank.

(i)     An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 3.1(g). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(ii)     Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank, any Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with Section 3.1(j)(i) above.

3.2     Obligations Several. The obligations of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, and each other Revolving Credit Lender under this Article III are several and not joint, and no Issuing Bank or other Lender shall be responsible for the obligation to issue Letters of Credit or participation obligation hereunder, respectively, of any other Issuing Bank or other Revolving Credit Lender.

3.3     Expiration after the Revolving Credit Termination Date. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if any Letters of Credit, by their terms, shall mature after the Revolving Credit Termination Date (as the same may be extended), then, on and after the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with respect to such Letters of Credit, and the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall comply with the provisions of Section 3.4.

3.4     Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit. (a) If, at any time and from time to time, any Letter of Credit shall have been issued hereunder and the same shall expire on a date after the Revolving Credit Termination Date, then, on< a date that is not later than the 91st day prior to> the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders, in same day funds at the Administrative Agent’s office designated in such demand, for deposit in a special cash collateral account (the “Letter of Credit Collateral Account”) to be maintained in the name of the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders) and under its sole dominion and control at such place as shall be designated by the Administrative Agent, an amount equal to the amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations, in Dollars, under the Letters of Credit. Interest shall accrue on the Letter of Credit Collateral Account at a rate equal to the rate on overnight funds. The Borrower shall also make deposits into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account in accordance with Section 11.2 and Section 14.25(c).

(b)     The Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, as Administrative Agent for its benefit and the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders a lien on and a security interest in, the following collateral (the “Letter of Credit Collateral”):

(i)      the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, all cash deposited therein and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing the Letter of Credit Collateral Account;

(ii)     all notes, certificates of deposit and other instruments from time to time hereafter delivered to or otherwise possessed by the Administrative Agent for or on behalf of the Borrower in substitution for or in respect of any or all of the then existing Letter of Credit Collateral;

(iii)    all interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the then existing Letter of Credit Collateral; and

(iv)     to the extent not covered by the above clauses, all proceeds of any or all of the foregoing Letter of Credit Collateral.

(c)     The lien and security interest granted hereby secures the payment of all obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing hereunder and under any other Loan Document to which such Letter of Credit Collateral may be applied pursuant to this Section 3.4.

(d)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Letter of Credit Collateral provided under any of this Section 3.4 or Sections 11.2 or 14.25(c) in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Letter of Credit Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Letter of Credit Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Letter of Credit Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(e)     Neither the Borrower nor the applicable Qualified Borrower nor any Person claiming or acting on behalf of or through the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.

(f)     The Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower each agrees that it will not (i) sell or otherwise dispose of any interest in the Letter of Credit Collateral or (ii) create or permit to exist any lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to any of the Letter of Credit Collateral, except for the security interest created by this Section 3.4.

(g)     If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(i)     The Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, without notice to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower except as required by law and at any time from time to time, charge, set off or otherwise apply all or any part of first, (x) amounts previously drawn on any Letter of Credit that have not been reimbursed by the Borrower and (y) any Letter of Credit Obligations described in clause (ii) of the definition thereof that are then due and payable and second, any other unpaid Obligations then due and payable against the Letter of Credit Collateral Account or any part thereof, in such order as the Administrative Agent shall elect. The rights of the Administrative Agent under this Section 3.4 are in addition to any rights and remedies which any Lender may have.

(ii)     The Administrative Agent may also exercise, in its sole discretion, in respect of the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York at that time.

(iii)     The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Letter of Credit Collateral if the Letter of Credit Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, it being understood that, assuming such treatment, the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility or liability with respect thereto.

(iv)     At such time as all Events of Default have been cured or waived in writing, all fees and expenses, if any, owing to the Lenders paid in full, and all Letters of Credit returned to the Issuing Banks, all amounts remaining in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be promptly returned to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower. Absent such cure or written waiver, any surplus of the funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and remaining after payment in full of all of the Obligations of the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower hereunder and under any other Loan Document after the Revolving Credit Termination Date shall be paid promptly to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

3.5     Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit.

3.6     Existing Letters of Credit. It is hereby acknowledged and agreed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and all the Lenders party hereto that on the Initial Funding Date, the letters of credit previously issued by Bank of America, N.A. as “Issuing Bank” under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement which are more particularly set forth on Schedule 3.6 hereto, shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit hereunder.

4.1     Prepayments; Reductions in Revolving Credit Commitments.

(a)     Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower or any Qualified Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, prepay the Loans in part or in their entirety, subject to the following limitations.

When notice of prepayment is delivered as provided herein, the outstanding principal amount of the Loans on the prepayment date specified in the notice shall become due and payable on such prepayment date. Each voluntary partial prepayment of the Loans shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 (or the remaining balance of the applicable Loans, if less), except in the case of Swingline Loans, which shall be in the minimum amount of $100,000. Eurodollar Rate Loans may be prepaid in part or in their entirety only upon payment of the amounts described in Section 5.2(f).< Unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Requisite Lenders after the Amendment Effective Date, any voluntary partial prepayment of the Loans shall be applied to the prepayment of the loans (and the cash collateralization of Letter of Credit Obligations) under the Credit Facilities on a pro rata basis pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, first to the Unsecured Portion of the Credit Facilities until fully repaid (or, with respect to Letter of Credit Obligations, fully cash collateralized) and then to the Secured Portion of the Credit Facilities.>

(b)     Voluntary Reductions In Revolving Credit Commitments. The Borrower may, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (which the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each Lender), at any time and from time to time, terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part the Revolving Credit Commitments, provided that the Borrower shall have made whatever payment may be required to reduce the Revolving Credit Obligations to an amount less than or equal to the Revolving Credit Commitments as reduced or terminated, which amount shall become due and payable on the date specified in such notice. Any partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount, and shall reduce the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Lender proportionately in accordance with its applicable Pro Rata Share.

(iii)     ><Asset Dispositions and Insurance and Condemnation Events. The Borrower shall make mandatory principal prepayments of the Loans to be applied as set forth in Section 4.1(d) in amounts equal to the Applicable Percentage of the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds from (a) any Asset Disposition occurring during the Covenant Modification Period; provided that there shall be excluded from this clause (a) any Net Cash Proceeds of less than $25,000,000 in the aggregate for all Asset Dispositions, or (b) any Net Cash Proceeds received from an Insurance and Condemnation Event (except to the extent that the Borrower confirms to the Administrative Agent that the Borrower reasonably expects to use such proceeds in the restoration, rebuilding or replacement of the applicable affected asset within 180 days (or, if committed within 180 days, within 360 days) of the Net Cash Proceeds Receipt Date). Such prepayments shall be made within five (5) Business Days after the Net Cash Proceeds Receipt Date of such Asset Disposition or Insurance and Condemnation Event, as applicable.><

(d)     ><Notice; Manner of Payment. Upon the occurrence of any Mandatory Prepayment Event, the Borrower shall promptly deliver notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders. Unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Requisite Lenders after the Amendment Effective Date, “Applicable Percentage” shall mean:><

(i)     ><with respect to Debt Issuances, 100%; and><

(ii)     ><with respect to Equity Issuances, Asset Dispositions and Insurance and Condemnation Events, 50%.>

<          Unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Requisite Lenders after the Amendment Effective Date, the Applicable Percentage of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of the loans (and the cash collateralization of Letter of Credit Obligations) under the Credit Facilities on a pro rata basis pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, first to the Unsecured Portion of the Credit Facilities until fully repaid (or, with respect to Letter of Credit Obligations, fully cash collateralized) and then to the Secured Portion of the Credit Facilities.><

(e)     ><Anti-Hoarding. If for any reason, the aggregate amount of the Unrestricted Cash and Cash Equivalents of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries exceeds $250,000,000 (such excess, the “Excess Cash Amount”), the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days) prepay the loans under the Credit Facilities on a pro-rata basis pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Excess Cash Amount, with such prepayment applied first to the Unsecured Portion of the Credit Facilities until fully repaid (or, with respect to Letter of Credit Obligations, fully cash collateralized) and then to the Secured Portion of the Credit Facilities.>

Such monthly payments of Cash Sweep Amount shall be deposited for each month on or before the 15^th day of the succeeding month after the Cash Sweep Trigger (the “Sweep Date”). During the period beginning on the Cash Sweep Trigger and ending on the applicable Cash Sweep Termination Date, the Borrower shall deliver to the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the PNC Agent on or before each Sweep Date, a detailed calculation of the Cash Sweep Amount for such month in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the PNC Agent, together with an income statement, operating statement, rent roll, and such other supporting statements, information and documentation with respect to the Borrowing Base Properties that such Person may reasonably request to verify the Borrower’s calculation of the Cash Sweep Amount.>

<          (ii)     The Borrower shall maintain a Cash Collateral Account at all times when this Agreement requires a Cash Collateral Account. All interest (if any) earned on sums on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account shall be credited to such account. The Borrower agrees that it shall include all interest and earnings on any such deposit as its income (and, if the Borrower is a partnership or other pass-through entity, the income of its partners, members or beneficiaries, as the case may be), and shall be the owner of all funds on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes. Following a Cash Sweep Trigger, the Borrower shall only be permitted to withdraw funds from the Cash Collateral Account at such time as the Administrative Agent and the PNC Agent have confirmed in writing that the Cash Sweep Termination Date has occurred. The Borrower hereby assigns, pledges, and grants to the Collateral Agent, a first-priority security interest in and lien on the Cash Collateral Account and all amounts from time to time held in or credited to the Cash Collateral Account, and any proceeds thereof, as security for the Secured Obligations. The Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York with respect to each Cash Collateral Account and the funds from time to time held therein. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section and the other provisions of the Loan Documents, the Cash Collateral Account shall be subject to the sole dominion, control and discretion of the Collateral Agent, but the Collateral Agent shall have no fiduciary duty with respect to such account or any funds on deposit therein. All funds in the Cash Collateral Account shall be used in compliance with the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Agreement. Under no circumstance may funds be withdrawn from the Cash Collateral Account without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent and if funds are withdrawn from the Cash Collateral Account in a larger amount than is approved by the Collateral Agent, the Borrower shall promptly return the excess to the Cash Collateral Account upon request by the Collateral Agent.>

<         (iii)     On the Sweep Date, the Collateral Agent shall withdraw and apply any funds held in a Cash Collateral Account to the prepayment of the loans (and the cash collateralization of Letter of Credit Obligations, if applicable) under the Credit Facilities on a pro rata basis pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, first to the Unsecured Portion of the Credit Facilities until fully repaid (or, with respect to Letter of Credit Obligations, fully cash collateralized) and then to the Secured Portion of the Credit Facilities.>

<          (iv)     The occurrence of a Cash Sweep Termination Date and the release of funds to the Borrower in connection therewith shall not, in any case, preclude the application of the cash sweep provisions set forth herein with respect to any subsequent Cash Sweep Trigger.>

<          (v)      For purposes hereof:>

<“Cash Sweep Termination Date” means the earlier of (y) the first day of the first calendar month following a Sweep Date when no Event of Default is then-continuing, and (z) the occurrence of the Security Release Trigger.>

<“Cash Sweep Amount” means, for any calendar month, an amount equal to:>

<(A)     actual gross revenues of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for such calendar month attributable to the Borrowing Base Properties (including, without limitation, all rents and other revenues and cash payments of any kind received by the Borrower), less>

<(B)     an amount equal to actual operating expenses paid for by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries during such calendar month and attributable to the Borrowing Base Properties (including but not limited to property taxes, assessments and the like, insurance, utilities, payroll costs, permitted capital expenditures, tenant allowances, maintenance, repair and landscaping expenses, marketing expenses, and general and administrative expenses), as set forth in a budget reasonably approved by the Administrative Agent and the PNC Agent from time to time.>

(g)     <No Reborrowing; Permanent Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments. Any Loans that are prepaid or repaid (whether voluntarily or mandatorily, and including loans prepaid in accordance with Sections 4.1(e) and (f) and including Revolving Credit Loans) may not be reborrowed, and the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permanently reduced by a corresponding amount of any prepayment or repayment of any Revolving Credit Loans after the Amendment Effective Date.><

(h)     >(c) No Penalty. The prepayments and payments in respect of reductions and terminations described in clauses (a)<, (b), (c), (e)> and (b<(f>) of this Section 4.1 may be made without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 5.2(f)).

4.2     Payments.

All payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and other Obligations (including, without limitation, fees and expenses) which are payable to the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or any other Lender shall be made without condition or reservation of right, in immediately available funds, delivered to the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, to the pertinent Issuing Bank) not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the date and at the place due, to such account of the Administrative Agent (or such Issuing Bank) as it may designate, for the account of the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank, or such other Lender, as the case may be; and funds received by the Administrative Agent (or such Issuing Bank), including, without limitation, funds in respect of any Loans to be made on that date, not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on any given Business Day shall be credited against payment to be made that day and funds received by the Administrative Agent (or such Issuing Bank) after that time shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day. All payments shall be in Dollars. Payments actually received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, or any of them, shall be paid to them by the Administrative Agent promptly after receipt thereof, in immediately available funds.

(b)     Apportionment of Payments. (i) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(b)(v), all payments of principal and interest in respect of outstanding Loans, all payments in respect of Reimbursement Obligations, all payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any other Obligations, shall be allocated among such of the Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion to their respective applicable Pro Rata Shares or otherwise as provided herein. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(b)(ii), all such payments and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent from or for the benefit of the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower shall be applied in the following order:

(A)     to pay principal of and interest on any portion of the Loans which the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender other than itself for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower,

(B)     to pay all other Obligations then due and payable and

(C)     as the Borrower so designates.

(ii)     After the occurrence of an Event of Default and while the same is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and any amounts received as a result of the exercise of remedies pursuant to Sections 11.12<11.2> and 14.5, in the following order:

(E)     fifth, to pay interest due in respect of Loans;

(G)     seventh, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations.

The order of priority set forth in this Section 4.2(b)(ii) and the related provisions of this Agreement are set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the other Lenders and other Holders as among themselves. The order of priority set forth in clauses (C) through (G) of this Section 4.2(b)(ii) may at any time and from time to time be changed by the Requisite Lenders without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by the Borrower, any Holder which is not a Lender, or any other Person. The order of priority set forth in clauses (A) and (B) of this Section 4.2(b)(ii) may be changed only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

(iii)     The Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion subject only to the terms of this Section 4.2(b)(iii), may pay from the proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans made to the Borrower hereunder, whether made following a request by the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower pursuant to Sections 2.1 or 2.2 or a deemed request as provided in this Section 4.2(b)(iii), all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder, including, without limitation, amounts payable with respect to payments of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations and fees and all reimbursements for expenses pursuant to Section 14.2. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lenders to make Revolving Credit Loans, which Revolving Credit Loans shall be Base Rate Loans, in each case, upon notice from the Administrative Agent as described in the following sentence for the purpose of paying principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations and fees due from the Borrower, reimbursing expenses pursuant to Section 14.2 and paying any and all other amounts due and payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes, and agrees that all such Revolving Credit Loans so made shall be deemed to have been requested by it pursuant to Section 2.1 as of the date of the aforementioned notice. The Administrative Agent shall request Revolving Credit Loans on behalf of the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence by notifying the Revolving Credit Lenders by facsimile transmission or other similar form of transmission (which notice the Administrative Agent shall thereafter promptly transmit to the Borrower), of the amount and Funding Date of the proposed Borrowing and that such Borrowing is being requested on the Borrower’s behalf pursuant to this Section 4.2(b)(iii). On the proposed Funding Date, the Revolving Credit Lenders shall make the requested Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with the procedures and subject to the conditions specified in Section 2.1.

(iv)     Subject to Section 4.2(b)(v), the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to the Arranger and each other Lender at its primary address set forth on the appropriate signature page hereof or the signature page to the Assignment and Acceptance by which it became a Lender, or at such other address as a Lender or other Holder may request in writing, such funds as such Person may be entitled to receive, subject to the provisions of Article XII; provided that the Administrative Agent shall under no circumstances be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Holder and may suspend all payments or seek appropriate relief (including, without limitation, instructions from the Requisite Lenders or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby.

(v)     In the event that any Lender fails to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan requested by the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower which such Lender is obligated to fund under the terms of this Agreement (the funded portion of such Loan being hereinafter referred to as a “Non Pro Rata Loan”), until the earlier of such Defaulting Lender’s cure of such failure and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Term Commitments, as applicable, the proceeds of all amounts thereafter repaid to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower and otherwise required to be applied to such Defaulting Lender’s share of all other Obligations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be advanced to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Defaulting Lender to cure, in full or in part, such failure by such Lender, but shall nevertheless be deemed to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender in satisfaction of such other Obligations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:

(A)     the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2(b)(v) shall apply only with respect to the proceeds of payments of Obligations and shall not affect the conversion or continuation of Loans pursuant to Section 5.1(c);

(B)     a Lender shall be deemed to have cured its failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan at such time as an amount equal to such Lender’s original Pro Rata Share of the requested principal portion of such Loan is fully funded to the Borrower, whether made by such Lender itself or by operation of the terms of this Section 4.2(b)(v), and whether or not the Non Pro Rata Loan with respect thereto has been repaid, converted or continued;

(C)     amounts advanced to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower to cure, in full or in part, any such Lender’s failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan (“Cure Loans”) shall bear interest at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, and for all other purposes of this Agreement shall be treated as if they were Base Rate Loans; and

(D)     regardless of whether or not an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, and notwithstanding the instructions of the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower as to its desired application, all repayments of principal which, in accordance with the other terms of this Section 4.2, would be applied to the outstanding Base Rate Loans shall be applied first, ratably to all Base Rate Loans constituting Non Pro Rata Loans, second, ratably to Base Rate Loans other than those constituting Non Pro Rata Loans or Cure Loans and, third, ratably to Base Rate Loans constituting Cure Loans.

(c)     Payments on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower hereunder or under the Notes is stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the payment shall instead be due on the next succeeding Business Day (or, as set forth in Section 5.2(b)(iii), the next preceding Business Day).

(d)     Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Banks, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

4.3     Promise to Repay; Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a)     Promise to Repay. The Borrower and each Qualified Borrower hereby promise to pay when due the principal amount of each Loan which is made to it, and further agree to pay all unpaid interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes. Unless a Lender elects not to receive any such promissory note, the Borrower and/or any Qualified Borrower shall execute and deliver to each Lender on the Closing Date (or in the case of any Qualified Borrower, at such time as it becomes a Qualified Borrower hereunder), a promissory note, in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, evidencing the Loans and thereafter shall execute and deliver such other promissory notes as are necessary to evidence the Loans owing to the Lenders after giving effect to any assignment thereof pursuant to Section 14.1 or any increase in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments or Term Commitments pursuant to Section 2.1(e), all in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Lenders and the parties to such assignment (all such promissory notes and all amendments thereto, replacements thereof and substitutions therefor being collectively referred to as the “Notes”; and “Note” means any one of the Notes).

(b)     Loan Account. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts (a “Loan Account”) evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower and each Qualified Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amount of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder and under the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure by any Lender to maintain a Loan Account shall in no way affect the Borrower’s or the applicable Qualified Borrower’s obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the obligation to repay the Obligations.

(c)     Control Account. The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 14.1(c) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the type of Loan comprising such Borrowing and any Eurodollar Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the effective date and amount of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and the parties thereto, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder or under the Notes and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d)     Entries Binding. The entries made in the Register and each Loan Account shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(e)     No Recourse to Limited Partners or General Partner. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, it is expressly understood and agreed that nothing herein or in the Notes shall be construed as creating any liability on any Limited Partner, any General Partner, or any partner, member, manager, officer, shareholder or director of any Limited Partner or any General Partner, to pay any of the Obligations other than liability arising from or in connection with (i) fraud or (ii) the misappropriation or misapplication of proceeds of the Loans (in which case such liability shall extend to the Person(s) committing such fraud, misappropriation or misapplication, but not to any other Person described above); but nothing contained in this Section 4.3(e) shall be construed to prevent the exercise of any remedy allowed to the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the Co-Agents or the Lenders by law or by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents which does not relate to or result in such an obligation by any Limited Partner or any General Partner (or any partner, member, manager, officer, shareholder or director of any Limited Partner or any General Partner) to pay money.

5.1     Interest on the Loans and other Obligations.

(a)     Rate of Interest. All Loans and the outstanding principal balance of all other Obligations shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loans are made and such other Obligations are due and payable until paid in full, except as otherwise provided in Section 5.1(d), as follows:

(i)     If a Base Rate Loan or such other Obligation, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate, as in effect from time to time as interest accrues, plus (B) the then Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans;< and>

(ii)     If a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Eurodollar Rate determined for the applicable Eurodollar Interest Period, plus (B) the then Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans; and

(iii)     If a Swingline Loan, as provided in Section 2.9(c).

The applicable basis for determining the rate of interest on the Loans shall be selected by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower at the time a Notice of Committed Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation is delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, neither the Borrower nor any Qualified Borrower may select the Eurodollar Rate as the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest on such a Loan if at the time of such selection an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default would occur or has occurred and is continuing and further provided that, from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default, each Eurodollar Rate Loan then outstanding may, at the Administrative Agent’s option, convert to a Base Rate Loan. If on any day any Loan is outstanding with respect to which notice has not been timely delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the basis for determining the rate of interest on that day, then for that day interest on that Loan shall be determined by reference to the Base Rate.

(b)     Interest Payments.  (i) Interest accrued on each Committed Loan shall be calculated on the last day of each calendar month and shall be payable in arrears (A) on the first Business Day of each calendar month, commencing on the first such day following the making of such Committed Loan, and (B) if not theretofore paid in full, on the maturity date (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Committed Loan.

(ii)     Interest accrued on the principal balance of all other Obligations shall be calculated on the last day of each calendar month and shall be payable in arrears (A) on the first Business Day of each calendar month, commencing on the first such day following the incurrence of such Obligation, (B) upon repayment thereof in full or in part, and (C) if not theretofore paid in full, at the time such other Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

(c)     Conversion or Continuation. (i) The Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall have the option (A) to convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans; (B) to convert all or any part of outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans having Eurodollar Interest Periods which expire on the same date to Base Rate Loans, on such expiration date; and (C) to continue all or any part of outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans having Eurodollar Interest Periods which expire on the same date as Eurodollar Rate Loans, and the succeeding Eurodollar Interest Period of such continued Loans shall commence on such expiration date; provided, however, no such outstanding Loan may be continued as, or be converted into, a Eurodollar Rate Loan (i) if the continuation of, or the conversion into, would violate any of the provisions of Section 5.2 or (ii) if an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default would occur or has occurred and is continuing. Any conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans under this Section 5.1(c) shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount, except in the case of a conversion into or a continuation of an entire Borrowing of Non Pro Rata Loans.

(ii)     To convert or continue a Loan under Section 5.1(c)(i), the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date. A Notice of Conversion/Continuation< (whether telephonic or written)> shall specify (A) the proposed conversion/continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (B) the principal amount of the Loan to be converted/continued, (C) whether such Loan shall be converted and/or continued, and (D) in the case of a conversion to, or continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the requested Eurodollar Interest Period. In lieu of delivering a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower may give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice of any proposed conversion/continuation by the time required under this Section 5.1(c)(ii), if the Borrower confirms such notice by delivery of the Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Administrative Agent by facsimile transmission promptly<immediately>, but in no event later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the same day. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation under this Section 5.1(c)(ii) (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender by facsimile transmission, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed conversion/continuation. Any Notice of Conversion/Continuation for conversion to, or continuation of, a Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) given pursuant to this Section 5.1(c)(ii) shall be irrevocable, and the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall be bound to convert or continue in accordance therewith. In the event no Notice of Conversion/Continuation is delivered as and when specified in this Section 5.1(c)(ii) with respect to outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, such Loans shall automatically be continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans with a Eurodollar Interest Period of one month; provided, however, no such outstanding Loan may be continued as, or be converted into,<to> a Eurodollar<Base> Rate Loan (i) if the continuation of, or the conversion into, would violate any of the provisions of Section 5.2 or (ii) if an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default would occur or has occurred and is continuing.

(d)     Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in Section 5.1(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement, effective immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and for as long thereafter as such Event of Default shall be continuing, the principal balance of all Loans and other Obligations shall bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate, as in effect from time to time as interest accrues, plus (B) the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans, plus (C) two percent (2.0%) per annum.

(e)     Computation of Interest. Interest on all Obligations shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest accrues and a year of 360 days (or 365/366 days in the case of interest computed by reference to the Base Rate). In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of the Loan or the first day of a Eurodollar Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be included and the date of payment or the expiration date of a Eurodollar Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, however, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day’s interest shall be paid on such Loan.

(f)     Eurodollar Rate Information. Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower from time to time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to the Borrower such information with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate as may be so requested.

5.2     Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(a)     Amount of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,500,000.

(b)    Determination of Eurodollar Interest Period. By giving notice as set forth in Section 2.1(b) (with respect to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans) or Section 5.1(c) (with respect to a conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans), the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall have the option, subject to the other provisions of this Section 5.2, to select an interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) to apply to the Loans described in such notice, subject to the following provisions:

(i)     Subject to availability, the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower may only select, as to a particular Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, an Interest Period (each, a “Eurodollar Interest Period”) of one, two,< or> three or six months in duration (or, with the prior written consent of the Administrative agent and if available to all Lenders, twelve months) or for a period of 7 days (provided, however, that in no event shall there be more than three (3) Eurodollar Interest Periods of 7 days outstanding at any time);

(ii)     [reserved];

(iii)     In the case of immediately successive Eurodollar Interest Periods applicable to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, each successive Eurodollar Interest Period shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Eurodollar Interest Period expires;

(iv)     If any Eurodollar Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Eurodollar Interest Period shall be extended to expire on the next succeeding Business Day if the next succeeding Business Day occurs in the same calendar month, and if there will be no succeeding Business Day in such calendar month, the Eurodollar Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day;

(v)     Neither the Borrower nor the applicable Qualified Borrower may select an Interest Period as to any Loan if such Interest Period terminates later than the Revolving Credit Termination Date or the Term Maturity Date, as applicable;

(vi)     Neither the Borrower nor the applicable Qualified Borrower may select an Interest Period with respect to any portion of principal of a Loan which extends beyond a date on which the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower is required to make a scheduled payment of such portion of principal; and

(vii)     There shall be no more than eight (8) Interest Periods in effect at any one time with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(c)     Determination of Eurodollar Interest Rate. As soon as practicable on the second Business Day prior to the first day of each Eurodollar Interest Period (the “Eurodollar Interest Rate Determination Date”), the Administrative Agent shall determine (pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate”) the interest rate which shall apply to the Eurodollar Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Eurodollar Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower, the applicable Qualified Borrower(s) and to each Lender. The Administrative Agent’s determination shall be presumed to be correct, absent manifest error, and shall be binding upon the Borrower, the applicable Qualified Borrower and each Lender.

(d)     Alternate Rate of Interest.

(i)     If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans:

(A)     the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Base Eurocurrency Rate for a Loan for the applicable Interest Period; or

(B)     the Administrative Agent is advised by the Requisite Lenders that the Base Eurocurrency Rate for a Loan for the applicable Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period,

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone promptly followed in writing or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (1) any Notice of Conversion/Continuation that requests the conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Loans to, or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loans for the applicable Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be ineffective and (2) such Borrowing shall be made as a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans.

(ii)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Borrower or Requisite Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Requisite Lenders, a copy to the Borrower) that the Borrower or Requisite Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice , as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the Base Eurocurrency Rate with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein) , giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar<Dollar> denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes (as defined below) and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Requisite Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Requisite Lenders do not accept such amendment.

If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) the Daily LIBOR Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein.

Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than zero<0.50%> for purposes of this Agreement.

As used above:

“LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate, any conforming changes to the definition of Base Rate, Interest Period, timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest and other administrative matters as may be appropriate, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, to reflect the adoption of such LIBOR Successor Rate and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent determines that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or that no market practice for the administration of such LIBOR Successor Rate exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent determines in consultation with the Borrower).

(e)     Illegality.  (i) If at any time any Lender determines (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties) that the making, converting, maintaining or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan has become unlawful or impermissible by compliance by that Lender with any law, governmental rule, regulation or order of any Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful or would result in costs or penalties), then, and in any such event, such Lender may give notice of that determination, in writing, to the Borrower, the applicable Qualified Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender.

(ii)     When notice is given by a Lender under Section 5.2(e)(i), (A) the Borrower’s or the applicable Qualified Borrower’s right to request from such Lender and such Lender’s obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be immediately suspended, and such Lender shall make a Base Rate Loan as part of any requested Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (B) if the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans are then outstanding, the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower shall immediately, or if permitted by applicable law, no later than the date permitted thereby, upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the affected Lender, convert each such Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

(iii)     If at any time after a Lender gives notice under Section 5.2(e)(i) such Lender determines that it may lawfully make Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Lender shall promptly give notice of that determination, in writing, to the Borrower, the applicable Qualified Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender. The Borrower’s and such Qualified Borrower’s right to request, and such Lender’s obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon be restored.

(iv)     A Lender may at its option may make any Loan or issue or extend any Letter of Credit (a “Credit Extension”) to the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender (any “Lending Office”) to make such Credit Extension; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower to repay such Credit Extension in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall take all reasonable actions requested by the Lender to mitigate or avoid such illegality.

(f)     Compensation. In addition to all amounts required to be paid by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower pursuant to Section 5.1 and Article XIII, the Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon demand, for all losses, expenses to third parties and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Loans to the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower but excluding any loss of Applicable Margin on the relevant Loans, any losses or expenses incurred as the result of such Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) and any administrative fees incurred in effecting such liquidation or reemployment) which that Lender may sustain (i) if for any reason a Borrowing, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Committed Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by the Borrower or any applicable Qualified Borrower or in a telephonic request by it for borrowing or conversion/ continuation or a successive Eurodollar Interest Period does not commence after notice therefor is given pursuant to Section 5.1(c), including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 5.2(d), (ii) if for any reason any Eurodollar Rate Loan is prepaid on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period (including pursuant to Section 13.4), (iii) as a consequence of a required conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as a result of any of the events indicated in Section 5.2(d), (iv) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower or any applicable Qualified Borrower to repay a Eurodollar Rate Loan when required by the terms of this Agreement, or (v) as a consequence of an assignment requested by the Borrower under Section 13.4. The Lender making demand for such compensation shall deliver to the Borrower concurrently with such demand a written statement in reasonable detail as to such losses, expenses and liabilities, and this statement shall be conclusive as to the amount of compensation due to that Lender, absent manifest error.

(g)     Booking of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of, its Eurodollar Lending Office or Eurodollar Affiliate or its other offices or Affiliates. No Lender shall be entitled, however, to receive any greater amount under Sections 4.2 or 5.2(f) or Article XIII as a result of the transfer of any such Eurodollar Rate Loan to any office (other than such Eurodollar Lending Office) or any Affiliate (other than such Eurodollar Affiliate) than such Lender would have been entitled to receive immediately prior thereto, unless (i) the transfer occurred at a time when circumstances giving rise to the claim for such greater amount did not exist and (ii) such claim would have arisen even if such transfer had not occurred.

(h)     Affiliates Not Obligated. No Eurodollar Affiliate or other Affiliate of any Lender shall be deemed a party to this Agreement or shall have any liability or obligation under this Agreement.

(i)     Adjusted Eurodollar Rate. Any failure by any Lender to take into account the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage when calculating interest due on Eurodollar Rate Loans shall not constitute, whether by course of dealing or otherwise, a waiver by such Lender of its right to collect such amount for any future period.

5.3     Fees.

(a)     Facility Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares for the Revolving Credit Facility, a fee (the “Facility Fee”), accruing at a per annum rate equal to the then applicable Facility Fee Percentage on the Maximum Revolving Credit Amount and commencing on the Closing Date, such fee being payable quarterly, in arrears, commencing on the first day of the fiscal quarter next succeeding the Closing Date and on the first day of each fiscal quarter thereafter and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

(b)     Calculation and Payment of Fees. All fees shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a 360-day year. All fees shall be payable in addition to, and not in lieu of, interest, compensation, expense reimbursements, indemnification and other Obligations. Fees shall be payable to the Administrative Agent at its office in New York, New York in immediately available funds. All fees shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when paid. All fees due to the Arranger or any other Lender, including, without limitation, those referred to in this Section 5.3, shall bear interest, if not paid when due, at the interest rate specified in Section 5.1(d) and shall constitute Obligations.

6.1     Conditions Precedent to the Initial Loans and Letters of Credit. The obligation of each Lender on the Initial Funding Date to make any Loan requested to be made by it, and to issue Letters of Credit, shall be subject to the satisfaction of all of the following conditions precedent:

(b)     No Legal Impediments. No law, regulation, order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority shall be, and the Administrative Agent shall not have received any notice that litigation is pending or threatened which is likely to enjoin, prohibit or restrain the making of the Loans and/or the issuance of Letters of Credit on the Initial Funding Date.

(c)     Interim Liabilities and Equity. Except as disclosed to the Arranger and the Lenders, since December 31, 2016, neither the Borrower nor the Company shall have (i) entered into any material (as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent) commitment or transaction, including, without limitation, transactions for borrowings and capital expenditures, which are not in the ordinary course of the Borrower’s business, (ii) declared or paid any dividends or other distributions other than in the ordinary course of business, (iii) established compensation or employee benefit plans, or (iv) redeemed or issued any equity Securities.

(d)     Qualified Borrower. In the event that such Loan is to be made to, or such Letter of Credit is to be issued or extended for the account of, a Qualified Borrower, receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Note by such Qualified Borrower for the account of each Lender, if not previously delivered, satisfying the requirements of Section 4.3, together with the Qualified Borrower Guaranty and all other items that would have been required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 2.10 and 6.1 with respect to such Qualified Borrower.

An Event of Default shall be deemed “continuing” until cured or waived in writing in accordance with Section 14.7.

11.2     Rights and Remedies.

(a)     Acceleration and Termination. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 11.1(f) or 11.1(g) with respect to the Borrower, the Revolving Credit Commitments and any unused Term Commitments shall automatically and immediately terminate and the unpaid principal amount of, and any and all accrued interest on, the Obligations and all accrued fees shall automatically become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, or protest or other requirements of any kind (including, without limitation, valuation and appraisement, diligence, presentment, notice of intent to demand or accelerate and of acceleration), all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower and each Qualified Borrower; and upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Requisite Lenders, by written notice to the Borrower, (i) declare that the Revolving Credit Commitments and any unused Term Commitments are terminated, whereupon the Revolving Credit Commitments and any unused Term Commitments and the obligation of each Lender to make any Loan hereunder and of each Lender to issue or participate in any Letter of Credit not then issued shall immediately terminate, and/or (ii) declare the unpaid principal amount of and any and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations to be, and the same shall thereupon be, immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, or protest or other requirements of any kind (including, without limitation, valuation and appraisement, diligence, presentment, notice of intent to demand or accelerate and of acceleration), all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower and each Qualified Borrower. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Borrower shall deposit cash collateral with the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4, in an amount equal to the then Letter of Credit Obligations<. In addition, the Administrative Agent may with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, and shall at the request of the Requisite Lenders, exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders all rights and remedies available under the Loan Documents and applicable law, provided that the ability of the Administrative Agent to take any such action requested or consented to by the Requisite Lenders in respect of the Collateral will be subject to the terms and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement>.

(b)     Rescission. If at any time after termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and any unused Term Commitments and/or acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, the Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account of principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations which shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent permitted by law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified in this Agreement) and all Events of Default and Potential Events of Default (other than nonpayment of principal of and accrued interest on the Loans due and payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall be remedied or waived pursuant to Section 14.7, then upon the written consent of the Requisite Lenders and written notice to the Borrower, the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and any unused Term Commitments and/or the acceleration and their consequences may be rescinded and annulled; but such action shall not affect any subsequent Event of Default or Potential Event of Default or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon. The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders to a decision which may be made at the election of the Requisite Lenders; they are not intended to benefit the Borrower and do not give the Borrower the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.

(c)     Enforcement. The Borrower and each Qualified Borrower acknowledges that in the event the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Qualified Borrower fails to perform, observe or discharge any of their respective obligations or liabilities under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any remedy of law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the other Lenders; therefore, the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the other Lenders shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

The Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the Co-Agents shall not have any duties to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required<Requisite> Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 14.7). The Administrative Agent and each Arranger and Co-Agent each hereby agrees that its duties shall include providing copies of documents received by such Agent from the Borrower which are reasonably requested by any Lender and promptly notifying each Lender upon its obtaining actual knowledge of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to each of the Lenders copies of all notices of default and other formal notices (including, without limitation, requests for waivers or modifications, as well as all notices received pursuant to Sections 8.4, 8.5, 8.6 and 8.7) sent or received, together with copies of all reports or other information received by it from the Borrower, including, without limitation, all financial information delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.2. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any< Event of Default or Potential Event of> Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VI or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

(b)     In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, the Borrower and each Qualified Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the credit facilities provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Borrower and each Qualified Borrower, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the Co-Agents and the Lenders, on the other hand, and the Borrower is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, the Administrative Agent and each Arranger, Co-Agent and Lender or any Affiliate thereof is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower, any Qualified Borrower or any of its Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or another Person; (iii) neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arrangers, Co-Agents nor any Lender or any Affiliate thereof has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or any Arranger, Co-Agent or Lender or any Affiliate thereof has advised or is currently advising the Borrower, any Qualified Borrower or any of its Affiliates on other matters) and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger, Co-Agent or Lender or any Affiliate thereof has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) the Administrative Agent and the Arranger, Co-Agents and Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower, any Qualified Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger, Co-Agent or Lender or such Affiliate has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any relationship arising out of or related to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto; and (v) the Administrative Agent and the Arranger, the Co-Agents and the Lenders or any Affiliate thereof have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby and the Borrower and each Qualified Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. The Borrower and each Qualified Borrower hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the Co-Agents and the Lenders or any Affiliate thereof with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty arising out of or related to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto.

12.3     Right to Request Instructions. The Administrative Agent and each Arranger and Co-Agent may at any time request instructions from the Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of any of the Loan Documents such Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant, and such Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from those Lenders from whom such Agent is required to obtain such instructions for the pertinent matter in accordance with the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such Agent shall take any action, or refrain from taking any action, which is permitted by the terms of the Loan Documents upon receipt of instructions from those Lenders from whom such Agent is required to obtain such instructions for the pertinent matter in accordance with the Loan Documents, provided, that no Holder shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent or any Arranger or Co-Agent as a result of such Agent acting or refraining from acting under the Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders or, where required by the express terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders.

12.4     Reliance. The Administrative Agent and each Arranger and Co-Agent shall each be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. With respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder, the Administrative Agent and each Arranger and Co-Agent may rely upon advice of legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

12.5     Indemnification. To the extent that the Administrative Agent or any Arranger or Co-Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower, the Lenders will reimburse and indemnify such Agent solely in its capacity as such Agent and not as a Lender for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, and reasonable costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under the Loan Documents, in proportion to each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Facilities determined as of the time when such indemnification is sought, unless and to the extent that any such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, and reasonable costs, expenses or disbursements shall arise as a result of such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable final judgment. Such Agent agrees to refund to the Lenders any of the foregoing amounts paid to it by the Lenders which amounts are subsequently recovered by such Agent from the Borrower, any Qualified Borrower or any other Person on behalf of the Borrower. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 12.5 shall survive the payment in full of the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and all other Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

12.6     Agents Individually. With respect to their respective Pro Rata Share of the Facilities hereunder, if any, and the Loans made by them, if any, the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the Co-Agents shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and are subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender. The terms “Lenders” or “Requisite Lenders” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and each other Co-Agent in its respective individual capacity as a Lender or as one of the Requisite Lenders. The Administrative Agent and each other Arranger and Co-Agent and each of their respective Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as if they were not acting as the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, and Co-Agents pursuant hereto.

12.7     Successor Agents.

 (a)    Resignation and Removal. Any Lead Arranger or the Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder (including as Administrative Agent) at any time by giving at least thirty (30) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Borrower and the other Lenders, unless applicable law requires a shorter notice period or that there be no notice period, in which instance such applicable law shall control (the “Resignation Effective Date”). Any Lead Arranger or the Administrative Agent may be removed at the direction of the Requisite Lenders, in the event such Lead Arranger or the Administrative Agent shall commit gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of its duties hereunder as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment. Such resignation or removal shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Lead Arranger or Administrative Agent of appointment pursuant to this Section 12.7. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b)     Appointment by Requisite Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal becoming effective, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject to approval by the Borrower provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, selected from among the Lenders.

(c)     Appointment by Retiring Agent. If a successor Administrative Agent shall not have been appointed within the thirty (30) Business Day or shorter period provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 12.7, the retiring Agent shall then appoint a successor Agent who shall serve as Administrative Agent until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above.

(d)     Rights of the Successor and Retiring Agents. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent (other than as provided in Section 13.1(h) and other then any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retired or removed Agent), and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or any removed Agent’s removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article XII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Agent under this Agreement and, after any resignation or removal, for as long as the Agent continues to act in such capacity hereunder or under the Loan Documents, including holding collateral or taking action to transfer the agency to a successor.

12.8     Relations Among the Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it will not take any legal action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower hereunder with respect to any of the Obligations, without the prior written consent of the Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Lender may accelerate or otherwise enforce its portion of the Obligations, or unilaterally terminate its Revolving Credit Commitment except in accordance with Section 11.2(a).

12.9     Sub-Agents. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

12.10     Independent Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that the extensions of credit made hereunder are commercial loans and letters of credit and not investments in a business enterprise or securities. Each Lender further represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers or any other Lender and their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder. Each Lender shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger, or any other Lender and their Related Parties and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder and in deciding whether or to the extent to which it will continue as a lender or assign or otherwise transfer its rights, interests and obligations hereunder.

ARTICLE XIII

YIELD PROTECTION

13.1     Taxes.

(a)     Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 13.1) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

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

(c)     Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 13.1, the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

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

(e)     Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower and the Qualified Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 14.1(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f)     Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 13.1(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

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

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

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

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

(2)     an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;

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

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

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

(D)     if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g)     Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 13.1 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 13.1), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 13.1 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes net of any Tax refunds) incurred by such indemnified party with respect to such indemnity payments and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h)     Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 13.1 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(i)     Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 13.1, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(j)     FATCA Acknowledgement. For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Closing Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Loans and this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

13.2     Increased Capital. If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity ratios or requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company (if any) to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company would have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), and the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon (A) the making or maintenance by any Lender of its Loans, any Lender’s participation in or obligation to participate in the Loans, Letters of Credit or other advances made hereunder or the existence of any Lender’s obligation to make Loans, or (B) the issuance or maintenance by any Lender of, or the existence of any Lender’s obligation to issue, Letters of Credit, then, in any such case, upon written demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent) from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. The Borrower shall not be required to pay such additional amounts unless such amounts are the result of requirements imposed generally on lenders similar to such Lender or the Issuing Bank and not the result of some specific reserve or similar requirement imposed on such Lender or the Issuing Bank as a result of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s special circumstances. Such demand shall be accompanied by a statement as to the amount of such compensation and include a brief summary of the basis for such demand. Such statement shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Borrower or any Qualified Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such statement within 10 days after receipt thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. This Section 13.2 shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of the Obligations for a period of 180 days.

13.3     Changes; Legal Restrictions. If any Change in Law shall:

(a)     subject a Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office or Eurodollar Affiliate) or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market to any condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) of any kind which such Lender reasonably determines to be applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or issue and/or participate in Letters of Credit; or

(b)     subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its Loans, Letters of Credit, Revolving Credit Commitments, or other Obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

(c)     impose, modify, or hold applicable, in the determination of a Lender, any reserve (other than reserves taken into account in calculating the Eurodollar Rate), special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar assessment or requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities (including those pertaining to Letters of Credit) in or for the account of, advances or loans by, commitments made, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, a Lender or any Applicable Lending Office or Eurodollar Affiliate of that Lender or the Issuing Bank;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to that Lender of making, converting, continuing, renewing or maintaining the Loans or its Revolving Credit Commitment or issuing or participating in the Letters of Credit or to reduce any amount receivable thereunder; then, in any such case, upon written demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, such amount or amounts as may be necessary to compensate such Lender or its Eurodollar Affiliate for any such additional cost incurred or reduced amount received. Such demand shall be accompanied by a statement as to the amount of such compensation and include a brief summary of the basis for such demand. Such statement shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Borrower or any Qualified Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. This Section 13.3 shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of the Obligations for a period of 180 days.

13.4     Replacement of Certain Lenders. In the event a Lender (a “Designee Lender”) shall have requested additional compensation from the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower under Section 13.2 or under Section 13.3, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 13.1, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower may, at its sole election, (a) make written demand on such Designee Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) for the Designee Lender to assign at par, and such Designee Lender shall assign at par pursuant to one or more duly executed Assignment and Acceptances to one or more Eligible Assignees which the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall have identified for such purpose, all of such Designee Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes (including, without limitation, its Revolving Credit Commitment, all Loans owing to it, and all of its participation interests in Letters of Credit but excluding its existing rights to payment under Sections 13.2 or 13.3) in accordance with Section 14.1 (with the Borrower paying any applicable fees associated with such assignment) (provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, which consents shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 13.2 or Section 13.3 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 13.1, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, (iii) in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent, and (iv) a Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply), or (b) repay all Loans owing to the Designee Lender together with interest accrued with respect thereto to the date of such repayment and all fees and other charges accrued or payable and all other Obligations owing to such Designee Lender under the terms of this Agreement for the benefit of the Designee Lender to the date of such repayment and remit to the Administrative Agent to be held as cash collateral an amount equal to the participation interest of the Designee Lender in Letters of Credit. Any such repayment and remittance shall be for the sole credit of the Designee Lender and not for any other Lender. Upon delivery of such repayment and remittance in immediately available funds as aforesaid, the Designee Lender shall cease to be a Lender under this Agreement. All expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing shall be for the sole account of the Borrower and shall constitute Obligations hereunder. In no event shall Borrower’s election under the provisions of this Section 13.4 affect its obligation to pay the additional compensation required under either Section 13.2 or Section 13.3.

13.5     No Duplication. For the avoidance of doubt, no amount payable by the Borrower or a Qualified Borrower to a Recipient pursuant to one of Section 13.1, Section 13.2 or Section 13.3 shall also be payable to the same Recipient pursuant to another of such Sections.

(B)     each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement<, including as set forth in Section 2.11>; provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of only one Facility;< provided further that, before the occurrence of the Security Release Trigger, any partial assignment of either the Revolving Credit Facility or Term Facility must be made as a proportionate assignment of both the Secured Portion and the Unsecured Portion thereof;>

(C)     the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with the fee described in Section 14.1(d) below; and

(D)     the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Company, the Borrower and their related parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.

(iii)     Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance (in accordance with Section 14.1(d)) and recording in the Register, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance and agreed to by the Administrative Agent, (A) the assignee thereunder shall, in addition to any rights and obligations hereunder held by it immediately prior to such effective date, if any, have the rights and obligations hereunder that have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have the same rights and benefits hereunder as if it were an original Lender hereunder, (B) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of such assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto except that its rights under Section 14.3 shall survive) and (C) the Borrower and any Qualified Borrower shall execute and deliver to the assignee thereunder a Note evidencing its obligations to such assignee with respect to the Loans.

(c)     The Register. The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 14.8 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, the Revolving Credit Commitment of, and the principal amount of the Loans under the Revolving Credit Commitments owing to, each Lender from time to time and whether such Lender is an original Lender or the assignee of another Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d)     Fee. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by the assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (payable by the assignee to the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in compliance with this Agreement and in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and the other Lenders.

(e)     Participations. Each Lender may sell participations to one or more other entities (a “Participant”) other than an Ineligible Institution in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under and in respect of any and all facilities under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of any or all of its Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder and the Committed Loans owing to it and its undivided interest in the Letters of Credit); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iv) each participation shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000, and (v) such participant’s rights to agree or to restrict such Lender’s ability to agree to the modification, waiver or release of any of the terms of the Loan Documents, to consent to any action or failure to act by any party to any of the Loan Documents or any of their respective Affiliates, or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which any Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents, shall be limited to the right to consent to (A) increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment of the Lender from whom such participant purchased a participation, but only if such increase shall affect such participant, (B) reduction of the principal of, or rate or amount of interest on the Loans subject to such participation (other than by the payment or prepayment thereof), (C) postponement of any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loan(s) subject to such participation and (D) release of any guarantor of the Obligations.

Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Revolving Credit Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Revolving Credit Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(f)     [Reserved].

(g)     Information Regarding the Borrower. Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 14.1, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower, any Qualified Borrower, or its Subsidiaries furnished to such Lender by the Administrative Agent or by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, such assignee or participant, or proposed assignee or participant, shall agree, in writing, to preserve in accordance with Section 14.20 the confidentiality of any confidential information described therein.

(h)     SPC Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (a “SPC”), identified in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the option to purchase from the Granting Lender all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make as provided herein, provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to purchase any Loan by any SPC, and (ii) if a SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to fund all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to fund such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The funding of a Loan by a SPC hereunder shall utilize the Revolving Credit Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were funded by such Granting Lender. Each party hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or payment under this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable, for so long as, and to the extent, the Granting Lender provides such indemnity or makes such payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding Loans 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 proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Granting Lender may disclose to a SPC and any SPC may disclose to any Rating Agency or provider of any surety or guarantee to such SPC any information relating to the SPC’s funding of Loans, all on a confidential basis. This clause (h) may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender, all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by a SPC at the time of such amendment.

(i)     Payment to Participants. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the case of any participation, all amounts payable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be calculated and made in the manner and to the parties required hereby as if no such participation had been sold.

(j)     Lenders’ Creation of Security Interests. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Obligations owing to it and any Note held by it) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or security interest in favor of any Federal Reserve bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board or any other central bank.

(k)     Assignment by MLPFS. The parties hereby agree that MLPFS may, without notice to the Borrower or other parties to this Agreement, assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any other registered broker-dealer wholly-owned by Bank of America Corporation to which all or substantially all of Bank of America Corporation’s or any of its subsidiaries’ investment banking, commercial lending services or related businesses may be transferred following the effective date of this Agreement.

14.2     Expenses.

(a)     Generally. The Borrower agrees upon demand to pay or reimburse <the Collateral Agent, >the Administrative Agent for all of their respective reasonable external audit and investigation expenses, and for the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent (but not of other legal counsel) and for all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every type and nature incurred by< the Collateral Agent,> the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank in connection with (i) the audit and investigation of the Consolidated Businesses, the Projects and other Properties of the Consolidated Businesses in connection with the preparation, negotiation, and execution of the Loan Documents; (ii) the preparation, negotiation, execution and interpretation of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Article VI), the Loan Documents, and the making of the Loans hereunder; (iii) the ongoing administration of this Agreement and the Loans, including consultation with attorneys in connection therewith and with respect to the Administrative Agent’s rights and responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (iv) the protection, collection or enforcement of any of the Obligations or the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents; (v) the commencement, defense or intervention in any court proceeding relating in any way to the Obligations, any Project, the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; (vi) the response to, and preparation for, any subpoena or request for document production with which the Administrative Agent or any other Agents or any other Lender is served or deposition or other proceeding in which any Lender is called to testify, in each case, relating in any way to the Obligations, a Project, the Borrower, any of the Consolidated Businesses, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; and (vii) any amendments, consents, waivers, assignments, restatements, or supplements to any of the Loan Documents and the preparation, negotiation, and execution of the same< and (viii) the Collateral Deliverables and all other third-party diligence costs and expenses related to the Borrowing Base Properties and the Collateral>.

(b)     After Default. The Borrower further agrees to pay or reimburse <the Collateral Agent, >the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the Co-Agents and each of the Lenders and their respective directors, officers, partners, employees, agents and advisors upon demand for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (including allocated costs of internal counsel and costs of settlement) incurred by such entity after the occurrence of an Event of Default (i) in enforcing any Loan Document or Obligation or any security therefor or exercising or enforcing any other right or remedy available by reason of such Event of Default; (ii) in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or in any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding; (iii) in commencing, defending or intervening in any litigation or in filing a petition, complaint, answer, motion or other pleadings in any legal proceeding relating to the Obligations, a Project, any of the Consolidated Businesses and related to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby or by any of the other Loan Documents; and (iv) in taking any other action in or with respect to any suit or proceeding (bankruptcy or otherwise) described in clauses (i) through (iii) above.

14.3     Indemnity. The Borrower and each Qualified Borrower further agrees, jointly and severally, (a) to defend, protect, indemnify, and hold harmless <the Collateral Agent, >the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the Co-Agents, the Issuing Bank and each and all of the other Lenders and each of their respective Related Parties (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Article VI) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses (other than loss of profits), damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, reasonable expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (excluding any Taxes and including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding, whether or not such Indemnitees shall be designated a party thereto), imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Indemnitees in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, the making of the Loans and the issuance of and participation in Letters of Credit hereunder, the management of such Loans or Letters of Credit, the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder, or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or (ii) any Liabilities and Costs relating to violation of any Environmental, Health or Safety Requirements of Law, the past, present or future operations of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors in interest, or, the past, present or future environmental, health or safety condition of any respective Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the presence of asbestos-containing materials at any respective Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or the Release or threatened Release of any Contaminant into the environment (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, neither the Borrower nor any Qualified Borrower shall have any obligation to an Indemnitee hereunder with respect to Indemnified Matters caused by or resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable final judgment; and (b) not to assert any claim against any of the Indemnitees, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of, or in any way in connection with, the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Revolving Credit Obligations, or the other matters governed by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower and each Qualified Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees. No Indemnitee referred to in this Section 14.3 shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, unless the receipt of such information or materials by the unintended recipient resulted from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable final judgment.

14.4     Change in Accounting Principles. If any change in the accounting principles used in the preparation of the most recent financial statements referred to in Sections 8.1 or 8.2 are hereafter required or permitted by the rules, regulations, pronouncements and opinions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board or the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (or successors thereto or agencies with similar functions) and are adopted by any General Partner or the Borrower, as applicable, with the agreement of its independent certified public accountants and such changes result in a change in the method of calculation of any of the covenants, standards or terms found in Article X, the parties hereto agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions so as to equitably reflect such changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating compliance with such covenants, standards and terms by the Borrower shall be the same after such changes as if such changes had not been made; provided, however, no change in GAAP that would affect the method of calculation of any of the covenants, standards or terms shall be given effect in such calculations until such provisions are amended, in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to so reflect such change in accounting principles. Notwithstanding the foregoing, leases shall continue to be classified and accounted for on a basis consistent with that reflected in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year December 31, 2016 for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any change in GAAP relating thereto, unless the requisite parties hereto shall enter into a mutually acceptable amendment addressing such changes.

14.5     Setoff. In addition to any Liens granted under the Loan Documents and any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and any Affiliate of any Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower and each Qualified Borrower at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Person (any such notice being hereby expressly waived) to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured (but not including trust accounts)) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender or any of its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower against and on account of the Obligations of the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower to such Lender or any of its Affiliates, including, but not limited to, all Loans and Letters of Credit and all claims of any nature or description arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, irrespective of whether or not (i) such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (ii) the Administrative Agent, at the request or with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, shall have declared the principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts due hereunder to be due and payable as permitted by Article XI and even though such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees that it shall not, without the express consent of the Requisite Lenders, and that it shall, to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so, upon the request of the Requisite Lenders, exercise its setoff rights hereunder against any accounts of the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower now or hereafter maintained with such Lender or any Affiliate.

14.6     Ratable Sharing. The Lenders agree among themselves that (i) with respect to all amounts received by them which are applicable to the payment of the Obligations (excluding the fees described in Sections 3.1(g), 5.2(f), and 5.3 and Article XIII) equitable adjustment will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in accordance with their applicable Pro Rata Shares, whether received by voluntary payment, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross-action or by the enforcement of any or all of the Obligations (excluding the fees described in Sections 3.1(g), 5.2(f), and 5.3 and Article XIII), (ii) if any of them shall by voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right of counterclaim, setoff, banker’s lien or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of the Obligations held by it, which is greater than the amount which such Lender is entitled to receive hereunder, the Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously upon the receipt of such payment) in such Obligations owed to the others so that all such recoveries with respect to such Obligations shall be applied ratably in accordance with their applicable Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such party to the extent necessary to adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent the purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such recovery. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 14.6 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including, subject to Section 14.5, the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

14.7     Amendments and Waivers.

(a)     General Provisions. Unless otherwise provided for or required in this Agreement, no amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be effective without the written agreement of the Requisite Lenders (which the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to grant or withhold in their sole discretion) and the Borrower and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the Borrower’s agreement shall not be required for any amendment or modification of Sections 12.1 through 12.8. No termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall be effective without the written concurrence of the Requisite Lenders, which the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to grant or withhold in their sole discretion. All amendments, waivers and consents not specifically reserved to the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the other Co-Agents or the other Lenders in Section 14.7(b), 14.7(c), and in other provisions of this Agreement shall require only the approval of the Requisite Lenders. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
