Commitments and Loans Prior to the Restatement Effective Date, certain term loans were previously made to the Borrowers and certain revolving loans were previously made to the Borrowers as “Dollar Tranche Revolving Loans” and “Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Loans” under the Existing Credit Agreement which remain outstanding as of the Restatement Effective Date (such outstanding loans being hereinafter referred to as the “Existing Loans”). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that on the Restatement Effective Date the Existing Loans shall be re-evidenced as Initial Term Loans and Revolving Loans that are “Dollar Tranche Revolving Loans” and “Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Loans”, as the case may be, under this Agreement and the terms of the Existing Loans shall be restated in their entirety and shall be evidenced by this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (a) each Dollar Tranche Lender (severally and not jointly) agrees to make Dollar Tranche Revolving Loans to the Borrowers in Dollars from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (i) such Lender’s Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Dollar Tranche Commitment or (ii) the sum of the total Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the aggregate Dollar Tranche Commitments, (b) each Multicurrency Tranche Lender (severally and not jointly) agrees to make Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Loans to the Borrowers in Agreed Currencies from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (i) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the Dollar Amount of such Lender’s Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Multicurrency Tranche Commitment, (ii) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the sum of the Dollar Amount of the total Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the aggregate Multicurrency Tranche Commitments or (iii) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the sum of the Dollar Amount of the total Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures, in each case denominated in Mexican Pesos, exceeding $500,000,000 and (c) each Additional Term Lender with an Additional Term Loan Commitment (severally and not jointly) agrees to make an Additional Term Loan to the Company in Dollars and to LKQ Netherlands in euro, in each case, on the Restatement Effective Date in an amount equal to the amount of such Lender’s applicable Additional Term Loan Commitment by making immediately available funds available to the Administrative Agent’s designated account, not later than the time specified by the Administrative Agent. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Dollar Tranche Revolving Loans and Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Loans. Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Committed Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.
SPV Lender Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (a “SPV”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, it shall not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.6, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV. This Section 13.6(g) may not be amended without the written consent of the SPV. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (x) no SPV shall be entitled to any greater rights under Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 5.4 than its Granting Lender would have been entitled to absent the use of such SPV and (y) each SPV agrees to be subject to the requirements of Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 5.4 as though it were a Lender and has acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 13.6.
