Section 2. Rights and Obligations of Assignor

(a) Upon the Effective Date, the Assignor shall be released from its obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the extent of, and solely to the extent of, the Assigned Interest (including, without limitation, the Assignor's obligation to fund Loans, purchase participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans, and indemnify the Administrative Agent and other parties, in each case to the extent of the Assigned Interest). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Assignor shall not be released from any obligation or liability arising prior to the Effective Date with respect to the Assigned Interest, including, without limitation, any indemnification obligation arising from events occurring prior to the Effective Date, except to the extent expressly assumed by the Assignee hereunder.

(b) The Assignor shall retain all of its rights under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to any Commitment, Loans, participations in Letters of Credit, and participations in Swingline Loans not assigned hereunder. If the Assignor assigns less than its entire Commitment and all of its outstanding Loans hereunder, the Assignor shall continue as a Lender under the Credit Agreement with respect to the retained portion of its Commitment and Loans, and all references to the Assignor's Commitment and Loans in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to refer to such retained portion.

(c) Nothing in this Assignment and Assumption shall constitute a novation of the obligations of the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any other Obligor under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Assignee acknowledges and agrees that the liabilities and obligations of the Borrower and the other Obligors under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect without modification.

Section 3. Rights and Obligations of Assignee

Upon the Effective Date:

(a) The Assignee shall become a party to the Credit Agreement as a "Lender" thereunder and shall be entitled to all rights, benefits, and privileges of a Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the extent of the Assigned Interest, including, without limitation, the right to receive payments of principal, interest, fees, and other amounts payable thereunder, the right to vote on matters submitted to the Lenders for approval, consent, or waiver (in each case, to the extent of the Assigned Interest), and the right to receive the benefit of the Collateral and the Guarantees under the Loan Documents.

The Parties acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register as the owner and holder of record of the Loans for all purposes of the Credit Agreement.

Section 5. Minimum Assignment Amount

Each assignment of Commitments and Loans pursuant to Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $____ of the Commitment (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of the Assignor's Commitment), unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower.

Instructions: Insert the applicable minimum assignment threshold as set forth in Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement (e.g., $5,000,000, or $1,000,000 in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof). Assignments to an existing Lender, an Affiliate of an existing Lender, or an Approved Fund may be subject to a lower (or no) minimum assignment amount, as specified in the Credit Agreement.

Section 6. Pro Rata Adjustments

(a) Upon the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent shall adjust the applicable Commitment Percentages (or Pro Rata Shares) of the Assignor and the Assignee in the Register to reflect the assignment and assumption of the Assigned Interest contemplated hereby.

(c) If on the Effective Date there are any outstanding Loans in respect of which the Assignor has funded its Pro Rata Share, the Administrative Agent shall arrange for the settlement of such Loans as between the Assignor and the Assignee in accordance with the Administrative Agent's customary procedures, and the Assignee shall pay to the Assignor (through the Administrative Agent, if so directed by the Administrative Agent) an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans assigned hereunder, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the Effective Date, unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing.

Section 7. Withholding Tax Forms

(a) If the Assignee is a "Foreign Lender" within the meaning of the Credit Agreement (or any equivalent term used therein), the Assignee shall comply with all tax documentation requirements set forth in Section __ of the Credit Agreement, including, without limitation, the delivery to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, on or before the Effective Date, of duly completed and executed copies of the following, as applicable:

No failure or delay by any Party hereto in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.

Section 9. Entire Agreement

This Assignment and Assumption (including this Annex 1), together with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations, and discussions, whether oral or written, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
