In connection with the Scheme, the Initial Borrower has requested the Lenders to extend credit to the Initial Borrower in the form of (i) Term Loans in an initial aggregate principal amount of $325,000,000 and (ii) a Revolving Credit Facility in an initial aggregate principal amount of $40,000,000. The Revolving Credit Facility may include one or more Letters of Credit from time to time and one or more Swingline Loans from time to time.

The Borrower, Luxco Holdings, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Senior Funding, Inc. as administrative agent and as collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto from time to time have entered into that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of February 11, 2010 (the “Original Credit Agreement”). On the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date, the Original Credit Agreement will be amended and restated in the form hereof. It is the intent of the parties hereto that this Agreement not constitute a novation of the obligations and liabilities of the parties under the Original Credit Agreement and that this Agreement amend and restate in its entirety the Original Credit Agreement and re-evidence the Obligations outstanding on the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date as contemplated hereby and it is the intent of the Loan Parties to confirm that all Obligations of the Loan Parties under the other Loan Documents, as amended hereby, shall continue in full force and effect and that, from and after the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date, all references to “the Credit Agreement” contained therein shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement.

The proceeds of the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans permitted to be made on the Initial Funding Date, together with (i) a portion of cash on hand of Target (USA) and its Subsidiaries (other than Subsidiaries organized under the laws of the Republic of Ireland), (ii) the proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Senior Notes and (iii) the proceeds of the Equity Contribution, will be used to pay the Acquisition Consideration and the Transaction Expenses. The proceeds of Revolving Loans made after the Initial Funding Date will be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, including the financing of Permitted Acquisitions. Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit will be used for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries.

Upon satisfaction of the White Wash Requirements by the Target and the Irish Guarantors, the Initial Borrower shall execute and deliver a novation and assumption agreement with Target pursuant to which, among other things, (a) the Initial Borrower shall assign and transfer to Target all of its rights and obligations as Borrower (but not as a Guarantor) under the Loan Documents (such assignment, the “Intermediate Debt Assumption”) and (b) the Initial Borrower shall be released from all of its obligations and liabilities as Borrower (but not as a Guarantor) under the Loan Documents.

Immediately thereafter, Target shall execute and deliver a novation and assumption agreement with the US Borrower pursuant to which, among other things, (a) Target shall assign and transfer to the US Borrower all of its rights and obligations as Borrower (but not as a Guarantor) under the Loan Documents (such assignment, the “Final Debt Assumption”), (b) the US Borrower shall be the continuing Borrower from and after the time of the Final Debt Assumption, (c) Target shall be released from all obligations and liabilities as Borrower (but not as a Guarantor) under the Loan Documents.

The Lenders are willing to extend such Loans and other extensions of credit on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the undertakings set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

Section 1.04 Pro Forma Calculations. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Leverage Ratio and the Secured Leverage Ratio shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 1.04.

(b) In the event that Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs, assumes, guarantees, redeems, repays, retires or extinguishes any Indebtedness included in the definitions of Total Debt, as the case may be (other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and has not been replaced) or issues or redeems Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Stock subsequent to the end of the Test Period for which the Leverage Ratio or Secured Leverage Ratio is being calculated but prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then the Leverage Ratio or Secured Leverage Ratio, as applicable, shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, assumption, guarantee, redemption, repayment, retirement or extinguishment of Indebtedness, or such issuance or redemption of Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Stock, as if the same had occurred on the beginning of the applicable Test Period.

(c) For purposes of calculating the Leverage Ratio and Secured Leverage Ratio, Specified Transactions that have been made by Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries during the applicable Test Period or subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and the change in Consolidated EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period. If since the beginning of any such Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section, then the Leverage Ratio or the Secured Leverage Ratio, as applicable, shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Specified Transaction occurred at the beginning of the applicable Test Period.

(d) [Reserved].

(e) [Reserved].

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, when calculating (i) the Secured Leverage Ratio for the purposes of Section 6.12 (other than a test in a Section of this Agreement, other than Section 6.12, which has as a condition compliance with such Sections), the events described in Sections 1.04(b), and 1.04(c) above that occurred subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period shall not be given pro forma effect.

(g) Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction, (i) the pro forma calculations shall be made with respect to the most recently completed Test Period ending prior to such Specified Transaction for which the financial statements and certificates required by Section 5.04(a) or 5.04(b), as the case may be, and 5.04(d) have been delivered or for which comparable financial statements have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise been provided to the Administrative Agent, after giving pro forma effect (as described in this Section 1.04) to such transaction, and (ii) the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower (and may include, for the avoidance of doubt, cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies resulting from such Specified Transaction which is being given pro forma effect that have been or are expected to be realized, and any such adjustments included in the initial pro forma calculations shall continue to apply to subsequent calculations of the Leverage Ratio and Secured Leverage Ratio, including during any subsequent Test Period in which the effects thereof are expected to be realized); provided, that, (A) such amounts are projected by the Borrower in good faith to result from actions either taken or expected to be taken within 12 months after the end of such Test Period in which such Specified Transaction occurred and (B) no amounts shall be added pursuant to this clause to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Consolidated EBITDA for such Test Period.

ARTICLE II.

The Credits

Section 2.01 Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) each Term Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make a Term Loan to the Borrower on the Initial Funding Date in a principal amount not to exceed its Term Loan Commitment and (ii) each Revolving Credit Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower, at any time and from time to time on and after the Initial Funding Date and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans made on the Initial Funding Date shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the sum of (A) $5,000,000 plus (B) the amount required to pay the Up-Front Closing Fees payable pursuant to Section 2.05(d) or otherwise, to pay any similar up-front closing fees payable under the Senior Notes or to account for any decrease in the net cash proceeds of the loans made under the Senior Notes as a result of original issue discount, and (y) $30,000,000. Within the limits set forth in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans. The full amount of the Term Loan Commitment must be drawn in a single drawing on the Initial Funding Date and amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(b) Each Lender having an Incremental Term Loan Commitment, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees, subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth herein and in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement, to make Incremental Term Loans to the Borrower, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed its Incremental Term Loan Commitment. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Incremental Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

Section 2.02 Loans. (a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.02(f) and subject to Section 2.22 relating to Swingline Loans, the Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be (i) in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000 (except, with respect to any Incremental Term Borrowing, to the extent otherwise provided in the related Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement) or (ii) equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.

(b) Subject to Section 2.08 and Section 2.15, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03. Each Lender may, at its option, make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than ten Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any time. For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

(c) Except with respect to Loans made pursuant to Section 2.02(f) and subject to Section 2.22 relating to Swingline Loans, each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account in New York City as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to an account designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have made funds available as contemplated in the preceding sentence, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender, severally with the Borrower, agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing or (ii) in the case of such Lender, a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error). If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Revolving Credit Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

(f) If the Issuing Bank shall not have received from the Borrower the payment required to be made by Section 2.23(e) with respect to a Letter of Credit within the time specified in such Section, the Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the L/C Disbursement and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such L/C Disbursement and its Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date (or, if such Revolving Credit Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on any day, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business Day), an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement (it being understood that such amount shall be deemed to constitute an ABR Revolving Loan of such Lender and such payment shall be deemed to have reduced the L/C Exposure), and the Administrative Agent will

promptly pay to the Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.23(e) prior to the time that any Revolving Credit Lender makes any payment pursuant to this paragraph; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made such payments and to the Issuing Bank, as their interests may appear. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, such Lender severally with the Borrower agree to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with this paragraph to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.06(a), and (ii) in the case of such Lender, for the first such day, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and for each day thereafter, the Alternate Base Rate.

Section 2.03 Borrowing Procedure. In order to request a Borrowing (other than a Swingline Loan or a deemed Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(f), as to which this Section 2.03 shall not apply), the Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Borrowing Request (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three Business Days before a proposed Borrowing (except for Loans made on the Initial Funding Date, in which case such Borrowing Request shall be delivered or faxed on the Initial Funding Date) and (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, one Business Day before a proposed Borrowing (except for Loans made on the Initial Funding Date, in which case such Borrowing Request shall be delivered or faxed on the Initial Funding Date). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Borrowing made prior to the Syndication Completion Date shall have an Interest Period in excess of one month unless agreed to by the Administrative Agent. Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable, shall be signed by or on behalf of the Borrower and shall specify the following information: (i) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Term Borrowing, an Incremental Term Borrowing or a Revolving Credit Borrowing, and whether such Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing; (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the number and location of the account to which funds are to be disbursed (which shall be an account that complies with the requirements of Section 2.02(c)); (iv) the amount of such Borrowing; and (v) if such Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period with respect thereto; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any contrary specification in any Borrowing Request, each requested Borrowing shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 2.02. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given in accordance with this Section 2.03 (and the contents thereof), and of each Lender’s portion of the requested Borrowing.

Section 2.04 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby jointly, severally and unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (i) the principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender made to the Borrower as

provided in Section 2.11 and (ii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender made to the Borrower on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan made to the Borrower on the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th day or the last day of a calendar month and is at least three Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain, in accordance with its usual practice, an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender to the Borrower from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of the sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower or any Guarantor and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans made to the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it hereunder be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns in substantially the form of Exhibit J-1 or Exhibit J-2, as applicable. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event any Lender shall request and receive such a promissory note, the interests represented by such note shall at all times (including after any assignment of all or part of such interests pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes payable to the payee named therein or its registered assigns.

Section 2.05 Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year and on each date on which any Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein, a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender (other than the Swingline Commitment) during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the Initial Funding Date or ending with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which the Commitments of such Lender shall expire or be terminated); provided that any Commitment Fee owing to a Lender which is a Defaulting Lender may be withheld by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion for so long as such Lender remains a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further that the first payment of such Commitment Fees shall not be due and payable until the second such date to occur after the Initial Funding

Date (or, in the event that the Initial Funding Date occurs on such a date, the first such date to occur after the Initial Funding Date). All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. The Commitment Fee due to each Lender shall commence to accrue on the Initial Funding Date and shall cease to accrue on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein. For purposes of calculating Commitment Fees with respect to Revolving Credit Commitments only, no portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be deemed utilized under Section 2.22 as a result of outstanding Swingline Loans.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees in the amounts and at the times from time to time agreed to in writing by the Borrower (or any Affiliate) and the Administrative Agent, including pursuant to the Fee Letter (the “Administrative Agent Fees”).

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to each Revolving Credit Lender (which is not a Defaulting Lender), through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein (each, an “L/C Fee Payment Date”) a fee (an “L/C Participation Fee”) calculated on such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the daily aggregate L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements which are earning interim interest pursuant to Section 2.23(h)) during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Initial Funding Date or ending with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which all Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired and the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders shall have been terminated) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate on Revolving Credit Borrowings comprised of Eurodollar Loans pursuant to Section 2.06; provided that any L/C Participation Fee owing to a Lender which is a Defaulting Lender may be withheld by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion for so long as such Lender remains a Defaulting Lender, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank with respect to each outstanding Letter of Credit issued for the account of (or at the request of) the Borrower a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 1/4 of 1% per annum or such other rate as shall be separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Issuing Bank, on the drawable amount of such Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date of such Letter of Credit, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of (or at the request of) the Borrower or processing of drawings thereunder (the fees in this clause (ii), collectively, the “Issuing Bank Fees”). All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

(d) Holdings and the Borrower agree to pay on the Initial Funding Date to each of the Lenders party to this Agreement as Lenders on the Initial Funding Date, as fee compensation for the funding of such Lenders’ Term Loans and for the provision of such Lenders’ Revolving Commitments, closing fees (collectively, the “Up-Front Closing Fees”) in an amount equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and Term Loan Commitment, payable from the proceeds of the Loans as and when funded on the Initial Funding Date. Such Up-Front Closing Fees shall be allocated among the Lenders party to this Agreement as Lenders on the Initial Funding Date ratably in accordance with the stated

principal amount of each such Lender’s Term Loans and aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments as of the Initial Funding Date. Such Up-Front Closing Fees will be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Initial Funding Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.

(e) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that the Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the Issuing Bank. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

Section 2.06 Interest on Loans. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing, including each Swingline Loan, shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time.

(b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time.

(c) Interest on each Loan shall be payable on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such Loan except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) if the Interest Payment Date with respect to any ABR Loan would otherwise fall on a date on or prior to the date of the Final Debt Assumption, such Interest Payment Date shall be extended and any such interest shall accrue to the next succeeding Business Day after the date of the Final Debt Assumption and (ii) if the Interest Payment Date with respect to any Eurodollar Loan would otherwise fall on a date on or prior to the date of the Final Debt Assumption, (A) such Eurodollar Loan shall be automatically continued as a Eurodollar Loan with the same Interest Period and notice in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been received and accepted with respect to such continuation and (B) no interest on such Eurodollar Loan shall be due and payable until the expiration of the second Interest Period; provided that if the date of the Final Debt Assumption is the date of expiration of such second Interest Period, such interest shall be due and payable on the next succeeding Business Day after the Final Debt Assumption.

Section 2.07 Default Interest. If (i) the Borrower shall default in the payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount due hereunder or under any other Loan Document, by acceleration or otherwise or (ii) during the continuance of any Event of Default arising under clauses (g) or (h) of Section 7.01, the Borrower shall on demand from pay interest, to the extent permitted by law, on such defaulted amount to but excluding the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) (a) in the case of overdue principal, at the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.06 plus 2.00% per annum and (b) in all other cases, at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when determined by reference to the Prime

Rate and over a year of 360 days at all other times) equal to the rate that would be applicable to an ABR Revolving Loan plus 2.00% per annum; provided, that no interest at such default rate shall accrue or be payable to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.08 Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period or (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining Eurodollar Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period, or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or fax notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the Administrative Agent shall have advised the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any request by the Borrower for a Eurodollar Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 or Section 2.10 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing and (ii) any Interest Period election that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective. Each determination by the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.08 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.09 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, (i) the Term Loan Commitments (other than any Incremental Term Loan Commitments, which shall terminate as provided in the related Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement) shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the last day of the Certain Funds Period and (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Swingline Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The L/C Commitment shall automatically terminate on the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) the date 30 days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Initial Funding Date shall not have occurred by such time, all the Commitments shall automatically terminate on the occurrence of the termination of the Certain Funds Period.

(b) Upon at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable written or fax notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Swingline Commitment; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Swingline Commitment shall be in an integral multiple of $500,000 and in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and (ii) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure then in effect.

(c) Each reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments or Swingline Commitment hereunder shall be made ratably among the applicable Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, on the date of each termination or reduction, the Commitment Fees on the amount of the Commitments so terminated or reduced accrued to but excluding the date of such termination or reduction.

Section 2.10 Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings. The Borrower shall have the right at any time upon prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (a) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, one Business Day prior to conversion, to convert any Eurodollar Borrowing of the Borrower into an ABR Borrowing, (b) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, to convert any ABR Borrowing of the Borrower into a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue any Eurodollar Borrowing of the Borrower as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period and (c) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three Business Days prior to conversion, to convert the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing of the Borrower to another permissible Interest Period, subject in each case to the following:

(i) each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Loans comprising the converted or continued Borrowing;

(ii) if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing shall satisfy the limitations specified in Section 2.02(a) and Section 2.02(b) regarding the principal amount and maximum number of Borrowings of the relevant Type;

(iii) each conversion shall be effected by each Lender and the Administrative Agent by recording for the account of such Lender the new Loan of such Lender resulting from such conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an equivalent principal amount; accrued interest on any Eurodollar Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the Borrower at the time of conversion;

(iv) if any Eurodollar Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16;

(v) any portion of a Borrowing maturing or required to be repaid in less than one month may not be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing;

(vi) any portion of a Eurodollar Borrowing that cannot be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing by reason of the immediately preceding clause shall be automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing;

(vii) no Interest Period may be selected for any Eurodollar Term Borrowing that would end later than a Repayment Date occurring on or after the first day of such Interest Period if, after giving effect to such selection, the aggregate outstanding amount of (A) the Eurodollar Term Borrowings with Interest Periods ending on or prior to such Repayment Date and (B) the ABR Term Borrowings would not be at least equal to the principal amount of Term Borrowings to be paid on such Repayment Date; and

(viii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, the Borrower shall have the option to convert all or any part of any Term Borrowing or Revolving Credit Borrowing from an ABR Borrowing to a Eurodollar Borrowing in accordance with the provisions set forth above or to continue any Eurodollar Borrowing in accordance with the provisions set forth above, in each case, to the extent that (x) such converted or continued Eurodollar Borrowing shall not have an Interest Period longer than one month and (y) the Borrower shall only be permitted to exercise one such option during the continuance of any such Default or Event of Default (for the avoidance of doubt, no provision of this clause (viii) shall prevent any Eurodollar Borrowing from being converted into an ABR Borrowing at the end of the applicable Interest Period).

Each notice pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and specify (i) the identity and amount of the Borrowing that the Borrower requests be converted or continued, (ii) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing, (iii) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.10 and of each Lender’s portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If the Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be converted or continued into an ABR Borrowing.

Section 2.11 Repayment of Term Borrowings. (a) (i) On the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the Term Loan Maturity Date (or if any such date is not a Business Day, on the next preceding Business Day (each such date being called a “Repayment Date”)), commencing on the second such date to occur after the Initial Funding Date (or, in the event that the Initial Funding Date occurs on such a date, the first such date to occur after the Initial Funding Date), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Term Lenders, a principal amount of the Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 2.11, Section 2.12 and Section 2.13(e)) equal to (x) for each Repayment Date prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date, 0.25% of the original outstanding principal amount thereof immediately after the funding on the Initial Funding Date, and (y) on the Term Loan Maturity Date, the entire remaining unpaid principal amount thereof, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

(ii) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Incremental Term Lenders, on each Incremental Term Loan Repayment Date, a principal amount of the Other Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.11(b), 2.12 and 2.13(e)) equal to the amount set forth for such date in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

(b) To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans and Other Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date and the Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date, respectively, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of payment.

(c) All repayments pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be subject to Section 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.

Section 2.12 Prepayment. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, upon at least three Business Days’ prior written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) at least one Business Day prior to the date of prepayment in the case of ABR Loans, to the Administrative Agent before 12:00 (noon), New York City time; provided, however, that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000, and (ii) at the Borrower’s election in connection with any prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12(a), such prepayment shall not, so long as no Event of Default then exists, be applied to any Revolving Loan of a Defaulting Lender.

(b) Optional prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied as directed by the Borrower.

(c) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein. All optional prepayments, including all optional prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be subject to Section 2.16, but otherwise without premium (subject to Section 2.12(e)) or penalty. All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment. In connection with any voluntary prepayments by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.12, any voluntary prepayment thereof shall be applied first to ABR Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.12 or any other provision of this Agreement and without otherwise limiting the rights in respect of prepayments of the Loans of the Borrower, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and with the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may make voluntary prepayments of outstanding Term Loans (each, a “Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment”) pursuant to this Section 2.12(d) on the following basis:

(i) the Borrower shall notify the Term Lenders (the “Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment Notice”), not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, at least five Business Days in advance of a proposed consummation of such Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment, that it desires to prepay Term Loans with proceeds in an aggregate amount specified by the Borrower (which amount shall be not less than $10,000,000 in the

aggregate in each case) (such amount or such lower amount constituting Qualifying Term Loans (as defined below) as contemplated by Section 2.12(d)(ii) hereof, each, a “Term Loan Prepayment Amount”) at a discount (which shall be expected to be within a range to be specified by the Borrower with respect to each Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment; the “Discount Range”) equal to a percentage of par of the principal amount of Term Loans; provided that (i) no proceeds of Revolving Loans shall be used to finance a Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment, (ii) no Incremental Term Loans may be requested by the Borrower for the purpose of financing a Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment, (iii) at the time the Borrower delivers the Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment Notice and after giving effect to the Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment, no Revolving Loans shall be outstanding, (iv) any Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment shall be offered to all Term Lenders on a pro rata basis, (v) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate stating that (A) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment (after giving effect to any related waivers or amendments obtained in connection with such Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment), and (B) each of the conditions to the Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment contained in this Section 2.12(d) has been satisfied, and (vi) at the Borrower’s request, any Term Lender participating in the Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment shall be required to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a customary “big boy” letter acknowledging that as of the date of the applicable Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment Notice and the proposed date of the consummation of such Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment, (1) each Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment is a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.12(d) of the Credit Agreement and the terms set forth therein, (2) the Borrower currently may have information regarding a Loan Party, its ability to perform its Obligations or any other matter that may be material to a decision by any Term Lender to participate in any Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment or participate in any of the transactions contemplated thereby and that has not previously been disclosed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (“Excluded Information”), (3) the Excluded Information may not be available to it, the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders, (4) it has independently and without reliance on any other party made its own analysis and determined to enter into the Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby notwithstanding its lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information and (5) the Borrower shall have no liability to it (to the extent permitted by law) and it hereby waives and releases any claims it may have against the Borrower (under applicable laws or otherwise) with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information;

(ii) in connection with a Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment, the Borrower shall allow each Term Lender to specify a discount to par (the “Acceptable Discount”) within the Discount Range for a principal amount (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Administrative Agent) of Term Loans at which such Term Lender is willing to permit such Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment. Based on the Acceptable Discounts and principal amounts of Term Loans specified by Term Lenders, the applicable discount (the “Applicable Discount”) for the Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment shall be the lower of (A) the lowest Acceptable Discount at which the Borrower can complete the Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment for the Term Loan Prepayment Amount that is within the Discount Range specified by the Borrower and (B)

in the event the offers received from Term Lenders are insufficient to allow the Borrower to complete the Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment for the Term Loan Prepayment Amount, the highest Acceptable Discount specified by the Term Lenders that is within the Discount Range specified by the Borrower. The Borrower shall prepay Term Loans (or the respective portions thereof) offered by Term Lenders that specify an Acceptable Discount that is equal to or less than the Applicable Discount (“Qualifying Term Loans”) at the Applicable Discount; provided that if the aggregate proceeds required to prepay Qualifying Term Loans (disregarding any interest payable under Section 2.05(d)(iv)) would exceed the Term Loan Prepayment Amount for such Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment, the Borrower shall prepay such Qualifying Term Loans at the Applicable Discount ratably based on the respective principal amounts of such Qualifying Term Loans (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Administrative Agent);

(iii) each Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment shall be deemed to be an optional prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.12 in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans being prepaid, provided that such Term Loan Voluntary Prepayments shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(a);

(iv) all Term Loans prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.12(d) shall be accompanied by payment of all accrued interest thereon;

(v) the scheduled principal payments of the Term Loans shall be reduced pro rata by the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.12(d); and

(vi) to the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures (including as to timing of any issuance of a Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment Notice, response deadlines, rounding and minimum amounts, Type and Interest Period of accepted Term Loans, irrevocability of any Term Loan Voluntary Prepayment Notice and other notices by the Borrower and Term Lenders and calculation of Applicable Discount in accordance with Section 2.12(d)(ii) above) established by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable judgment and agreed to by the Borrower.

(e) In the event that (i) the Term Loans are prepaid in whole or in part pursuant to Section 2.12(a) (or repriced or effectively repriced lower through any amendment of this Agreement) on or prior to the third anniversary of the Initial Funding Date or (ii) the Administrative Agent declares the Term Loans to be due and payable on or prior to the third anniversary of the Initial Funding Date in whole or in part pursuant to Article VII, then if such prepayment (or repricing or effective repricing lower by a refinancing) or declaration shall have occurred on or prior to the first anniversary of the Initial Funding Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Lenders a premium on the amount so prepaid (or repriced or effectively repriced lower by a refinancing) or declared in an amount equal to the Applicable Premium, or if such prepayment (or repricing or effective repricing lower by a refinancing) or declaration shall have occurred after the first anniversary of the Initial Funding Date but on or prior to the third anniversary of the Initial Funding Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Lenders a premium on the amount so prepaid (or repriced or effectively repriced lower by a refinancing) or declared in an amount as follows:


Relevant Period	Prepayment premium as a percentage of the amount so prepaid (or repriced or effectively repriced lower by a refinancing) or declared
On or prior to the second anniversary of the Initial Funding Date, but after the first anniversary of the Initial Funding Date	2.0	%
On or prior to the third anniversary of the Initial Funding Date, but after the second anniversary of the Initial Funding Date	1.0	%

Section 2.13 Mandatory Prepayments. (a) In the event of any termination of all the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all its outstanding Revolving Credit Borrowings and all its outstanding Swingline Loans and replace all its outstanding Letters of Credit and/or deposit an amount equal to the L/C Exposure in cash in a cash collateral account established with the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. If as a result of any partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment after giving effect thereto, then the Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, repay or prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings or Swingline Loans (or a combination thereof) and/or cash collateralize Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in the event the Swingline Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that a Lender has not funded its participation pursuant to Section 2.22(e) or its pro rata share of a Mandatory Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.22(f), the Borrower, shall upon demand by the Swingline Lender, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender an amount equal to such Defaulting Lender’s unfunded participation or Pro Rata Percentage of the Loans required to be made pursuant to Mandatory Borrowing, as the case may be, which amount shall be applied by the Administrative Agent solely to reduce the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans; provided that no such payment by the Borrower shall change the status of a Defaulting Lender as such, or otherwise limit, reduce or qualify the obligations of any Lender with respect to its obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents including without limitation to fund its Pro Rata Percentage of participations required by Section 2.22(e) or Loans made pursuant to a Mandatory Borrowing, in each case, after giving effect to any payments made by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this sentence.

(b)

(i)(A) If (x) any Loan Party Disposes of any property or assets (other than any Disposition of any property or assets permitted by Xxxxxxx 0.00(x), (x), (x)(x), (x), (x), (x), (x), (x) or (m) and other than any Disposition resulting in less than $250,000 in Net Cash Proceeds) or (y) any Recovery Event occurs, which results in the realization or

receipt by such Loan Party of Net Cash Proceeds (other than any Recovery Event resulting in the realization or receipt of less than $250,000 in Net Cash Proceeds), the Borrower shall apply the Required Prepayment Percentage of the Net Cash Proceeds received with respect thereto to prepay outstanding Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e) on or prior to the date which is five Business Days after the date of the realization or receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, that no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.13(b)(i)(A) with respect to such portion of such Net Cash Proceeds that the Borrower shall have, on or prior to such date, given written notice to the Administrative Agent of its intent to reinvest in accordance with Section 2.13(b)(i)(B).

(B) With respect to any Net Cash Proceeds realized or received with respect to any Disposition (other than any Disposition specifically excluded from the application of Section 2.13(b)(i)(A)) or any Recovery Event, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at the option of the Borrower, the Borrower may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in assets useful for its business within 365 days following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds (provided if prior to the expiration of such 365 day period, the Borrower enters into a legally binding commitment to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds, such reinvestment period shall be extended by an additional 180 days); provided that if any Net Cash Proceeds are no longer intended to be or cannot be so reinvested at any time after delivery of a notice of reinvestment election, an amount equal to any such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within five Business Days after the Borrower reasonably determines that such Net Cash Proceeds are no longer intended to be or cannot be so reinvested to the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in this Section 2.13.

(c) In the event that any Loan Party or any subsidiary of a Loan Party shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or other incurrence of Indebtedness of any Loan Party or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 6.01), the Borrower shall, substantially simultaneously with (and in any event not later than the fifth Business Day (or not later than thirty days in the case of any Restricted Subsidiary organized outside of Ireland and the United States) next following) the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by such Loan Party or such Restricted Subsidiary, apply an amount equal to the Required Prepayment Percentage of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay outstanding Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e).

(d) No later than five Business Days after the financial statements with respect to such period are delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(a), the Borrower shall prepay outstanding Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e), in an aggregate principal amount equal to the positive difference (if any) between (x) the Required Prepayment Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year then ended less (y) any prepayments of the Term Loans made under Section 2.12 in such fiscal year and any prepayments of the Revolving Loans made under Section 2.12 in such fiscal year to the extent accompanied by a permanent reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments by the amount of such Revolving Loan prepayment pursuant to Section 2.09.

(e) Mandatory prepayments of outstanding Loans under this Agreement shall be applied:

(i) to Term Loans to reduce in direct order the scheduled amortization payments pursuant to Section 2.11. Any Term Lender may elect, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days or any shorter time period as the Administrative Agent may determine, prior to the applicable prepayment date, to decline all of any mandatory prepayments of its Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.13, in which case the aggregate amount of the prepayment that would have been applied to prepay such Term Loans but was so declined shall be promptly re-offered to prepay the Term Loans of those Term Lenders who have initially accepted such prepayment (such re-offer to be made to each such Term Lender based on the percentage which such Term Lender’s Term Loans represents of the aggregate Term Loans of all such Term Lenders who have initially accepted such prepayment); and

(ii) in the event of such a re-offer, the relevant Lenders may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent within one Business Day of receiving notification of such re-offer, to decline all of the amount of such prepayment that is re-offered to them, in which case such amount shall be retained by the Borrower.

(f) The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under this Section 2.13, (i) a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment and (ii) to the extent practicable, (A) at least one day prior written notice of such prepayment for prepayment of ABR Loans and (B) at least three days prior written notice of such prepayment for prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the Type of each Loan being prepaid and the principal amount of each Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid. All prepayments of Borrowings pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be subject to Section 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty. In connection with any mandatory prepayments by the Borrower of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.13, such prepayments shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans; provided that if no Lenders exercise the right to waive a given mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.13(e), then, with respect to such mandatory prepayment, the amount of such mandatory prepayment shall be applied first to Term Loans that are ABR Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Term Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16.

(g) If any of the Loans would otherwise constitute an “applicable high yield discount obligation” within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Tax Code, on or before the end of the first accrual period following the fifth anniversary of the making of each Loan hereunder, and on each Interest Payment Date thereafter, the Borrower shall make a payment with respect to such Loan in an amount equal to the AHYDO Amount. For the purposes of this Section 2.13(g), “AHYDO Amount” means the amount sufficient to ensure that any of the Loans made hereunder will not be an “applicable high yield discount obligation” within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Tax Code. Each payment of the AHYDO Amount will be applied in full, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary (including Section 2.13(e) above), to prepay the Loans made hereunder. It is the intention of this Section 2.13(g) that the Loans made hereunder will not be applicable high yield discount obligations.

Section 2.14 Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement which is reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or

(ii) impose on any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition (except any such reserve requirement which is reflected in the definition of Statutory Reserves) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein,

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or purchasing or maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank to be material, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, upon demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided, that such amount shall be determined in a manner consistent with the amount that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, would generally apply with respect to other similarly situated borrowers, if applicable, and shall not be duplicative of any amounts paid by the Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement, and provided further, that costs to which this Section 2.14 applies shall not include Excluded Taxes or costs relating to Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes that are governed by Section 2.20.

(b) If any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit purchased by, such Lender or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank to a level below that which such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company would have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank to be material, then from time to time the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; provided, that such amount shall be determined in a manner consistent with the amount that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, would generally apply with respect to other similarly situated borrowers, if applicable, and shall not be duplicative of any amounts paid by the Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement.

(c) A certificate of a Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount or amounts shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within 10 days after its receipt of the same.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) above for increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to such request if such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank knew or could reasonably have been expected to know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the fact that such circumstances would or could reasonably have been expected to result in a claim for increased compensation by reason of such increased costs or reductions; provided further that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 180-day period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or been imposed.

Section 2.15 Change in Legality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent:

(i) such Lender may declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional Interest Periods and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Eurodollar Loans), whereupon any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing (or to convert an ABR Borrowing to a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (or a request to continue an ABR Loan as such for an additional Interest Period or to convert a Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below.

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Loans. Any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan under (i) above shall be subject to Section 2.16.

(b) For purposes of this Section 2.15, a notice to the Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Borrower.

Section 2.16 Indemnity. The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such Lender receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to an ABR Loan, or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, in each case other than on the last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor or (iii) any Eurodollar Loan to be made by such Lender (including any Eurodollar Loan to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) not being made after notice of such Loan shall have been given by the Borrower hereunder (any of the events referred to in this clause being called a “Breakage Event”) or (b) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment required to be made hereunder. In the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining funds for the Eurodollar Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying the funds released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.17 Pro Rata Treatment. Except as provided in Section 2.13 and below in this Section 2.17 with respect to Swingline Loans, subject to the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders, and as required under Section 2.15, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of the Commitment Fees, each reduction of the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans). For purposes of determining the available Revolving Credit Commitments

of the Lenders at any time, each outstanding Swingline Loan shall be deemed to have utilized the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders which shall not have made Swingline Loans) pro rata in accordance with such respective Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount.

Section 2.18 Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Loan or Loans or L/C Disbursement as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements of any other Lender, it shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Loans and L/C Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans and L/C Exposure and participations in Loans and L/C Exposure held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure then outstanding as the principal amount of its Loans and L/C Exposure prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that (i) if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.18 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.18 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to Holdings or any of its Affiliates (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.18 shall apply). The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan or L/C Disbursement deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.19 Payments. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the date when due in immediately available dollars, without setoff (except for setoff that is attributable to withholding taxes, which is governed by Section 2.20), defense or counterclaim. Each such payment (other than (i) Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to the Issuing Bank, and (ii) principal of and interest on Swingline Loans, which shall be paid directly to the Swingline Lender except as otherwise provided in Section 2.22(e)) shall be made

to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 0000 Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 (or such other address from time to time specified in writing by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower). All payments hereunder and under each other Loan Document shall be made in dollars. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.

Section 2.20 Taxes. (a) Except as provided in this Section 2.20, any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes unless required by law; provided that if any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by the Borrower, or, as the case may be, the other Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions or withholding (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower or such other Loan Party shall make (or cause to be made) such deductions and (iii) the Borrower or such other Loan Party shall pay (or cause to be paid) the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. In addition, the Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder shall pay (or cause to be paid) any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, served upon the Borrower and/or the other Loan Party, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, or any of their respective Affiliates, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section), together with any penalties, interest and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A reasonably detailed certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability shall be delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or the Issuing Bank or by the Administrative Agent on its behalf or on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Bank. The Borrower shall not be under any obligation to compensate the Administrative Agent and each Lender and Issuing Bank for any penalties or interest, if the notice thereof has not been provided to the Borrower within 270 days after the payment of such taxes.

(c) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to Section 2.20(a), and in any event within 30 days of any such payment (or, if receipts or evidence are not available within thirty (30) days, as soon as possible thereafter), the

Borrower shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Administrative Agent the original or a 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) If the Borrower reasonably believes that such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (which have been grossed-up pursuant to clause (a) above or indemnified for pursuant to clause (b) above) were not correctly or reasonably asserted, the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender will use their reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower, and shall procure that reasonable assistance is provided to the Borrower, to obtain a refund of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (which shall be repaid to Borrower in accordance with this Section 2.20(d) net of any expenses and other costs reasonably incurred by the Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent) so long as such efforts would not, in the sole good faith determination of such Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or Lender, result in any additional costs, expenses or risks or be otherwise disadvantageous to it. If any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent (i) obtains a refund in respect of an amount paid by the Borrower to any Governmental Authority and a gross up has been paid pursuant to Section 2.20(a) or for an amount for which indemnification was received by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.20(b), then such Lender, Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to Borrower the amount of the refund (and any interest paid by the Governmental Authority with respect thereto), net of all reasonable and allocable out-of-pocket expense of such Lender, Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent incurred in obtaining such refund as is determined by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, in its reasonable discretion, and as will leave the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or such Lender in no worse position than it would be in if no such Taxes had been imposed or (ii) determines that it is entitled to receive a refund in respect of any amount paid by the Borrower to any Governmental Authority pursuant to Section 2.20(a) or for an amount for which indemnification was received by any Lender, Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.20(b), then such Lender, Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to receive such refund and upon receipt of any such refund shall promptly remit such refund as provided in Section 2.20(d)(i); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority), net of any reasonable incremental additional costs, to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This section shall not be construed to require any Lender, Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent to make available its Tax returns (or any other information it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (e), a Lender, Issuing Bank, or Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this clause (e) that such Lender, Issuing Bank, or Administrative Agent is not legally able to deliver. Without limiting the foregoing:

(i) Each Lender, Issuing Bank, and Administrative Agent that is a United States person, as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Tax Code, shall deliver to the

Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement, and at such times as are reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any successor form, certifying that such Lender, Issuing Bank, and Administrative Agent is exempt from United States federal back-up withholding.

(ii) Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement and at such times as are reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, whichever of the following is applicable:

(a) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, and such other documentation as required under the Tax Code,

(b) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms),

(c) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Tax Code, (i) a “Non-Bank Certificate” in the form of Exhibit G and (ii) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

(d) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership), or is a participant holding a participation granted by a participating Lender, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Foreign Lender, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN, Non-Bank Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY or any other required information from each beneficial owner, as applicable (provided that, if one or more beneficial owners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the Non-Bank Certificate may be provided by such Foreign Lender on behalf of such beneficial owner). Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further original copies of any previously delivered form or certification (or any applicable successor form) on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate and promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is unable to do so. Each Foreign Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered form or certification to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent.

(f) To the extent legally able to do so, each Lender, Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent shall deliver the Tax Confirmation (substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit N) to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or before the date of the first interest payment pursuant to this Agreement, and at such times as are reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent if there is any change in the position from that set out in the Tax Confirmation, provided, however, that no such Tax Confirmation shall be required with respect to any Lender that becomes a party to this Agreement after the Final Debt Assumption has been completed. Each Lender and Issuing Bank acknowledges that the Borrower and the Administrative Agent will be relying upon the valid and subsisting Tax Confirmation provided by each Lender, Issuing Bank, and Administrative Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Lender is not an Irish Qualifying Lender and provides a Tax Confirmation with respect to its status as such in accordance with this clause (f), the Lender shall be entitled to the benefits of clause (a) and clause (b) above with respect to any Irish withholding taxes imposed on any payments hereunder.

(g) Each Lender, Issuing Bank, and Administrative Agent shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the documentation provided pursuant to Section 2.20(e) obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to do so.

(h)

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrower agrees to indemnify on the terms and conditions described below on an after-tax basis each Lender that gives proper notice as described below from and against any U.S. federal income Taxes imposed on such Lender that are attributable to the Intermediate Debt Assumption and/or the Final Debt Assumption (the “Push Down Tax”), provided, however, that if the Initial Borrower shall have received an opinion of Ernst & Young (which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) prior to the Initial Funding Date to the effect that it is more likely than not that the Intermediate Debt Assumption and the Final Debt Assumption, either alone or together, will not result in an exchange (or a deemed exchange) of any of the Loans for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then the Borrower shall only be required to indemnify a Lender for the Push Down Tax in the event that such Lender files its U.S. federal income Tax returns on the basis that the Intermediate Debt Assumption and the Final Debt Assumption do not result in the recognition of taxable income or gain for U.S. federal income tax purposes (unless a contrary position is required as a result of an audit or similar proceeding). Nothing in this Agreement shall require any Lender to take a position on any specific basis, and each Lender shall determine its tax position with respect to the Intermediate Debt Assumption and the Final Debt Assumption in its discretion.

(ii) The amount of the Push Down Tax shall equal the excess, if any, of (i) U.S. federal income Taxes imposed on such Lender for the taxable year of the Intermediate Debt Assumption and/or the Final Debt Assumption over (ii) the amount of U.S. federal income Taxes that would have been imposed on such Lender for such taxable year had the Intermediate Debt Assumption and/or the Final Debt Assumption not taken place. If the Lender is entitled to an indemnity pursuant to Section 2.20(h)(i), then any and all reasonable expenses incurred by a Lender in connection with defending its tax return position associated with the Push Down Tax shall be borne by the Borrower, so long as the Borrower is given a proper notice and opportunity to participate and control the resolution of any disputes relating to the Push Down Tax; provided that in the event the direct control by the Borrower may significantly interfere with other tax matters relating to the relevant Lender, the Lender may control the process with consultation with the Borrower, with the Lender and the Borrower each bearing their own respective expenses (other than any reasonable expenses incurred by the Lender in carrying out specific actions at the request of the Borrower, which shall be borne by the Borrower); provided, further, that the Lender shall not settle any dispute relating to the Push Down Tax without the Borrower’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(iii) A Lender seeking payment under clause (h) shall give written notice to the Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail (i) the basis for seeking such payment and (ii) the computation of the amount of the Push Down Tax for which an indemnity is sought pursuant to this clause (h).

(iv) In the event a Lender that has received a payment under this clause (h) actually realizes a refund, credit or other tax benefit (whether by way of reduction in otherwise taxable income, deduction, allocation or apportionment of income or otherwise) that it would not otherwise have realized without the Intermediate Debt Assumption and/or the Final Debt Assumption, it shall promptly pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such benefit, provided that the determination that a Lender has realized any such refund, credit or other benefit shall be made in the Lender’s reasonable judgment and in good faith. In addition, nothing herein shall require any Person to disclose any of its tax returns to the Borrower or any agent of the Borrower.

(i) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.20 shall survive the payment in full of all amounts due hereunder.

(j) An Irish Treaty Lender and the Borrower which makes a payment to which that Irish Treaty Lender is entitled shall reasonably co-operate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for the Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment without any Irish withholding Tax that would otherwise be imposed; provided, however, that an Irish Treaty Lender shall not be obligated to provide any cooperation or comply with any procedural formalities if doing so would be more onerous or burdensome than the procedure normally required for a United States person (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Tax Code) in connection with providing Internal Revenue Service Form 6166.

(k) If the Borrower pays an additional amount or makes an indemnity payment pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above with respect to Irish Taxes and the relevant Lender determines that:

(i) a Tax Credit is attributable to such additional amount or indemnity payment; and

(ii) the relevant Lender has obtained, utilized or retained the Tax Credit,

the relevant Lender shall pay an amount to the Borrower which that Lender determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the additional amount or indemnity payment not been required to be made by the Borrower.

Section 2.21 Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate. (a) In the event (i) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15, (iii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.20 or (iv) any Lender does not consent to a proposed amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement requested by the Borrower which requires the consent of all of the Lenders, each affected Lender or all of the Lenders under any Facility to become effective (and which is approved by at least the Required Lenders), the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)), upon notice to such Lender or the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender or the Issuing Bank to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Term Loans and/or its Revolving Loans (including its Revolving Credit Commitment) to an assignee that shall assume such assigned obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (y) solely with respect to replacements of Lenders pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section, the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Credit Commitment is being assigned, of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, and (z) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the affected Lender or the Issuing Bank in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans or L/C Disbursements of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, respectively, with respect to its interests being assigned hereunder plus all Fees and other amounts accrued for the account of such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (including any amounts under Section 2.14 and Section 2.16); provided further that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or notice under Section 2.15 or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, cease to cause such Lender or the Issuing Bank to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.15, or cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 2.20, as the case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (b) below), or if such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall waive its right to claim further compensation under Section 2.14 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall withdraw its notice under Section 2.15 or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.20 in respect of such circumstances or event, as the case may

be, then such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder. In connection with any such replacement, upon receipt by such replaced Lender of all amounts specified above in connection with its assigned interests, such replaced Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered an Assignment and Acceptance and the assignment by such replaced Lender shall be automatically effective.

(b) If (i) any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank shall request compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15 or (iii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank, pursuant to Section 2.20, then such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts (which shall not require such Lender or the Issuing Bank to incur an unreimbursed loss or unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise take any action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any disadvantage or burden deemed by it to be significant) (x) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower or (y) to assign its rights and delegate and transfer its obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such filing or assignment would reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.14 or enable it to withdraw its notice pursuant to Section 2.15 or would reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, in the future. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the Issuing Bank in connection with any such filing or assignment, delegation and transfer.

Section 2.22 Swingline Loans. (a) Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make loans to the Borrower, at any time and from time to time after the Initial Funding Date, and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans exceeding $5,000,000 in the aggregate or (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, after giving effect to any Swingline Loan, exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Each Swingline Loan shall be in a principal amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000. The Swingline Commitment may be terminated or reduced from time to time as provided herein. Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein.

(b) Swingline Loans. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by fax, or by telephone (confirmed by fax), not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan to be made to it. Such notice shall be delivered on a Business Day, shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of such Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any notice received from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (b). The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Borrower as directed in such notice of proposed Swingline Loan from Borrower to Administrative Agent by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date such Swingline Loan is so requested.

(c) Prepayment. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) to the Swingline Lender and to the Administrative Agent before 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the date of prepayment at the Swingline Lender’s address for notices specified in the Administrative Questionnaire delivered by the Swingline Lender. All principal payments of Swingline Loans shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid to the date of payment.

(d) Interest. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan and, subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, shall bear interest as provided in Section 2.06(a).

(e) Participations. The Swingline Lender may, by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, require the Revolving Credit Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Credit Lenders will participate. The Administrative Agent will, promptly upon receipt of such notice, give notice to each Revolving Credit Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02(c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders under this Section) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower (or other party liable for obligations of the Borrower) of any default in the payment thereof.

(f) Mandatory Borrowings. The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, in its sole discretion, require that the Swingline Lender’s outstanding Swingline Loans shall be funded with one or more Borrowings of Revolving Loans; provided that such notice shall be deemed to

have been automatically given upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default under Section 7.01(g) or (h) or upon the exercise of any of the remedies provided in the last paragraph of Section 7.01, in which case one or more Borrowings of Revolving Loans constituting ABR Loans (each such Borrowing, a “Mandatory Borrowing”) shall be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day by all Revolving Credit Lenders based on their Pro Rata Percentage and the proceeds thereof shall be applied directly by the Administrative Agent to repay the Swingline Lender for such outstanding Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally, agrees to make Revolving Loans upon one Business Day’s notice pursuant to each Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the date specified in writing by the Swingline Lender. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02(c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any Mandatory Borrowing made pursuant to this paragraph. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other Person on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a Mandatory Borrowing shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have funded their obligations pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The refinancing of a Swingline Loan with a Mandatory Borrowing pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower (or other Person liable for obligations of the Borrower) of any default in the payment of such Mandatory Borrowing. Mandatory Borrowings shall be made upon the notice specified in above, with the Borrower irrevocably agreeing, by its incurrence of any Swingline Loan, to the making of the Mandatory Borrowings as set forth in this Section 2.22(f).

(g) Extensions. If the Revolving Credit Maturity Date shall have occurred in respect of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments at a time when another tranche or tranches of Revolving Credit Commitments is or are in effect with a longer Revolving Credit Maturity Date, then on the earliest occurring Revolving Credit Maturity Date all then outstanding Swingline Loans shall be repaid in full on such date (and there shall be no adjustment to the participations of the Revolving Credit Lenders therein as a result of the occurrence of such Revolving Credit Maturity Date); provided, however, that if on the occurrence of such earliest Revolving Credit Maturity Date (after giving effect to any repayments of Revolving Loans and any reallocation of Letter of Credit participations as contemplated in Section 2.24(l)), there shall exist sufficient unutilized Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so that the respective outstanding Swingline Loans could be incurred pursuant the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments which will remain in effect after the occurrence of such Revolving Credit Maturity Date, then there shall be an automatic adjustment on such date of the participations in such Swingline Loans and the same shall be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to the relevant Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, and such Swingline Loans shall not be so required to be repaid in full on such earliest Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

Section 2.23 Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit at any time and from time to time after the Initial Funding Date while the Revolving Credit Commitments remain in effect (but no later than 30 days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date) for its own account or for the account of any Restricted Subsidiary (in which case the Borrower and such Restricted Subsidiary shall be co-applicants with respect to such Letter of Credit), in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank. This Section shall not be construed to impose an obligation upon the Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Letters of Credit shall be denominated in dollars. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in any Letter of Credit application, in the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit application, the terms hereof shall control.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. In order to request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or to amend, renew or extend an existing Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (no less than three Business Days (or such shorter period of time acceptable to the Issuing Bank) in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) below), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if, and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the L/C Exposure shall not exceed $20,000,000 and (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, unless such Letter of Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date; provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of 12 months or less (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date) unless the Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each such Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower (or, if applicable, another party pursuant to its obligations under any other Loan Document) forthwith on the date due as provided in Section

2.02(f). Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement within one (1) Business Day after the Borrower shall have received notice from the Issuing Bank that payment of such draft will be made, or, if the Borrower shall have received such notice later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business Day.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s joint and several obligations to reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, and irrespective of:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein;

(ii) any amendment or waiver of, or any consent to departure from, all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;

(iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, indemnifying or otherwise obligated with, the Borrower, any subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

(iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(v) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and

(vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Issuing Bank, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of the Borrower hereunder to reimburse L/C Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing

Bank. However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof; it is understood that the Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit (i) the Issuing Bank’s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and (ii) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuing Bank.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic notification, confirmed by fax, to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the applicable Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Revolving Credit Lender notice thereof.

(h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on such date, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of the Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment by the Borrower or the date on which interest shall commence to accrue thereon as provided in Section 2.02(f), at the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount were an ABR Revolving Loan.

(i) Resignation or Removal of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower. In addition, the Issuing Bank shall be required to resign upon thirty (30) days’ prior notice from the Required Lenders and the Borrower to the Administrative Agent. Subject to the next succeeding paragraph, upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender that shall agree to serve as successor Issuing Bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the retiring or removed Issuing Bank and the retiring or removed Issuing Bank shall be discharged from its obligations to issue additional Letters of Credit hereunder. At the time such removal or

resignation shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(ii). The acceptance of any appointment as the Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or removal of the Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Borrower shall, on the Business Day the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Credit Lenders representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure) thereof and of the amount to be deposited, deposit in an account with the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the L/C Exposure as of such date. Such deposit shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits in Permitted Investments, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the L/C Exposure at such time and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Credit Lenders representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure), be applied to satisfy the Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If any Letter of Credit is outstanding on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the Borrower shall either cause such Letter of Credit to be returned to the Issuing Bank on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or cash collateralize such Letter of Credit in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank.

(k) Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of the Agreement. Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Bank and such Lender.

(l) Extensions. If the Revolving Credit Maturity Date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of which the Revolving Credit Maturity Date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to purchase participations therein) under (and ratably participated in by Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Credit Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to immediately preceding clause (i) and unless provisions reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank for the treatment of such Letter of Credit as a letter of credit under a successor credit facility have been agreed upon, the Borrower shall, on or prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, cause all such Letters of Credit to be replaced and returned to the applicable Issuing Bank undrawn and marked “cancelled” or to the extent that the Borrower is unable to so replace and return any Letter(s) of Credit, such Letter(s) of Credit shall be secured by a “back to back” letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank, or cash collateralized in an amount equal to the face amount of such Letter(s) of Credit by the deposit by the Borrower of cash in such amount into an account with the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders. Such cash shall be remitted to the Borrower upon the expiration, cancellation or other termination or satisfaction of all Obligations hereunder. Except to the extent of reallocations of participations pursuant to clause (i) above, the occurrence of a Revolving Credit Maturity Date with respect to a given tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Revolving Credit Lenders in any Letter of Credit issued before such Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

Section 2.24 Increase in Commitments.

(a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request Incremental Term Loan Commitments from one or more Incremental Term Lenders, all of which must be Eligible Assignees; provided that each Incremental Term Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in each case not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $5,000,000), (ii) the date on which such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice), and (iii) whether such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are commitments to make additional Term Loans or commitments to make term loans with terms different from the Term Loans (“Other Term Loans”). The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request additional Revolving Credit Commitments from one or more Persons, all of which must be Eligible Assignees; provided that each Person providing an additional Revolving Credit Commitment, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in each case not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the additional Revolving Credit Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum

increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $5,000,000), (ii) the date on which such additional Revolving Credit Commitments are requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice) and (iii) whether such additional Revolving Credit Commitments are to be treated as an increase to the original Revolving Credit Commitments or as a new separate tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments. The Borrower may seek additional Revolving Credit Commitments from existing Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion) and additional banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders who will become Revolving Credit Lenders in connection therewith. The Borrower and each Person providing an additional Revolving Credit Commitment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Additional Revolving Credit Commitment Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the additional Revolving Credit Commitment of each such Person. Except as to amount, interest rates and fees, the terms and provisions of additional Revolving Loans made under such Additional Revolving Credit Commitments shall be identical to those of the original Revolving Loans and original Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder (in each case, such additional Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Loans made thereunder with different terms and provision than the original Revolving Loans and original Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder being an additional “tranche” and an additional “Facility” hereunder).

(b) The Borrower may seek Incremental Term Loan Commitments from existing Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion) and additional banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders who will become Incremental Term Lenders in connection therewith. The Borrower and each Incremental Term Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of each Incremental Term Lender. The terms and provisions of the Incremental Term Loans shall be identical to those of the Term Loans except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement. Without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, (i) the final maturity date of any Other Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date and (ii) the average life to maturity of the Other Term Loans shall be no shorter than the average life to maturity of the Term Loans. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement and each Additional Revolving Credit Commitment Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement or Additional Revolving Credit Commitment Assumption Agreement, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.08, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment and the Incremental Term Loans evidenced thereby or the additional Revolving Credit Commitment and the additional Revolving Loans evidenced thereby, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may revise this Agreement to evidence such amendments.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term Loan Commitment or additional Revolving Credit Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.24 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.01 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to

that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower, (ii) except as otherwise specified in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement or Additional Revolving Credit Commitment Assumption Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have received (with sufficient copies for each of the Incremental Term Lenders or Persons providing additional Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable) legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and consistent with those delivered on the Commitment Effective Date under Section 4.02, (iii) no Event of Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (iv) the Secured Leverage Ratio shall not exceed 3.25:1.00, and after giving pro forma effect to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment or additional Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable.

(d) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all Incremental Term Loans (other than Other Term Loans), when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans on a pro rata basis. This may be accomplished by requiring each outstanding Eurodollar Term Borrowing to be converted into an ABR Term Borrowing on the date of each Incremental Term Loan, or by allocating a portion of each Incremental Term Loan to each outstanding Eurodollar Term Borrowing on a pro rata basis. Any conversion of Eurodollar Term Loans to ABR Term Loans required by the preceding sentence shall be subject to Section 2.16. If any Incremental Term Loan is to be allocated to an existing Interest Period for a Eurodollar Term Borrowing, then the interest rate thereon for such Interest Period and the other economic consequences thereof shall be as set forth in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement. In addition, to the extent any Incremental Term Loans are not Other Term Loans, the scheduled amortization payments under Section 2.11(a)(i) required to be made after the making of such Incremental Term Loans shall be ratably increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans and shall be further increased for all Lenders on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary to avoid any reduction in the amortization payments to which the Term Lenders were entitled before such recalculation. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, take any and all action (including pursuant to amendments as specified in Section 2.24(b)) as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that, upon the effectiveness of each additional Revolving Credit Commitment, (i) all Borrowings under Revolving Credit Commitments (including additional Revolving Credit Commitments) and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for payments of interest and fees at different rates, if applicable, on additional Revolving Credit Commitments) and (ii) all Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated in on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments (including additional Revolving Credit Commitments) in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages.

Section 7.02 Holdings’ Right to Cure.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.01, in the event of a breach of the covenant set forth in Section 6.12 (regardless of whether, pursuant to the first proviso set forth in Section 6.12, such breach results in a Default or Event of Default) and until the expiration of the tenth day after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered with respect to the applicable fiscal quarter hereunder (the “Cure Expiration Date”), Holdings (or any direct or indirect parent of Holdings) may on one or more occasions sell or issue Equity Interests and the Borrower may designate any portion of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof as an increase to Consolidated EBITDA with respect to such applicable quarter; provided that all such Net Cash Proceeds to be so designated (i) are actually received by Holdings (including through capital contribution of such Net Cash Proceeds to Holdings) no later than ten (10) days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered with respect to such fiscal quarter hereunder and (ii) the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds that are so designated shall not exceed 100% of the aggregate amount necessary to cure such breach for any applicable period.

144

(b) Upon receipt by Holdings of any such designated Net Cash Proceeds (the “Cure Amount”), Consolidated EBITDA for any period of calculation which includes the last fiscal quarter of the four fiscal quarter period ending immediately prior to the date on which such Cure Amount was paid shall be increased, solely for the purpose of calculating any financial ratio set forth in Section 6.12 by an amount equal to the Cure Amount. The resulting increase to Consolidated EBITDA from designation of a Cure Amount shall not result in any adjustment to Consolidated EBITDA or any other financial definition for any purpose under this Agreement other than for purposes of calculating the financial ratios set forth in Section 6.12.

(c) If, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, Holdings shall then be in compliance with the requirements of Section 6.12, the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of Section 6.12 as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of Section 6.12 that had occurred shall be deemed cured for this purpose of the Agreement.

(d) In each period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, there shall be at least two fiscal quarters for which Consolidated EBITDA is not increased by exercise of a cure pursuant to this Section 7.02.

(e) The exercise of cure rights by Holdings set forth above in this Section 7.02 may not occur on more than three occasions.

ARTICLE VIII.

The Agents and the Arrangers

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (for purposes of this Article VIII, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are referred to collectively as the “Agents” and each as an “Agent”) its agent and authorizes the Agents to take such actions on its behalf, including the execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to each such Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized by the Lenders to (i) execute any and all documents (including releases and the Security Documents and any intercreditor agreements referred to in Section 6.02(x)) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents and (ii) negotiate, enforce or settle any claim, action or proceeding affecting the Lenders in their capacity as such, at the direction of the Required Lenders, which negotiation, enforcement or settlement will be binding upon each Lender.

Each financial institution serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such financial institution and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates as if it were not an Agent hereunder.

145

No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.08), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the financial institution serving as any Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request or direction of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.08) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by Holdings, the Borrower or a Lender, and no Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection, or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.

Without prejudice to the foregoing, each Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby acknowledge, agree and accept that the Collateral Agent holds Collateral which is the subject of the UK Security Documents as trustee for and on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of the declaration of trust set out in the UK Security Documents and that the terms of its appointment, and such trust, shall be as set out (or referred to) in the relevant UK Security Documents and this Agreement.

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Each Agent may also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Holdings or the Borrower), independent 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.

146

Each 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 it. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers by or 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 each 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 Agent.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, each Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Agent Default, the Borrower and the Required Lenders may remove such Agent, which removal shall be effective upon the acceptance of appointment by a successor as such Agent. Upon any such removal of an Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor. In the case of the resignation of an Agent, if no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a financial institution with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such financial institution. If no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence by the 30th day after the date such notice of resignation was given by such Agent, such Agent’s resignation shall become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of such Agent hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as the case may be. Any such resignation by or removal of an Agent hereunder shall also constitute, to the extent applicable, its resignation as an Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, in which case such resigning or removed Agent (x) shall not be required to issue any further Letters of Credit or make any additional Swingline Loans hereunder and (y) shall maintain all of its rights as Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it, or Swingline Loans made by it, prior to the date of such resignation. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent, and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while acting as Agent. In addition, notwithstanding the effectiveness of a resignation by the Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, continue to provide the services of the Administrative Agent solely with respect to administering, collecting and delivering any payments of principal, interest, fees, premium or other amounts in respect of the Loans and maintaining the books and records relating thereto (such Administrative Agent acting in such capacity, the “Paying Agent”), (ii) the term “Administrative Agent” when used in connection with any such functions shall be deemed to mean such retiring Administrative Agent in its capacity as the Paying Agent and (iii) such retiring Administrative Agent shall, in its capacity as the Paying Agent, continue to be vested with and enjoy all of the rights and benefits of an Administrative Agent.

147

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Loan Document, the Arrangers are named as such for recognition purposes only, and in such capacity shall have no duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; it being understood and agreed that the Arrangers shall be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of the Agents provided herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Arrangers shall not, by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender, Loan Party or any other Person.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents, the Arrangers or any Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents, the Arrangers or any Lender and based on such documents and information 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 or any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

The Borrower hereby agrees that (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 9.16); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated as “Public Investor;” and (z) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat the Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not marked as “Public Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Borrower Materials shall be marked “PUBLIC”, unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent promptly that any such document contains material non-public information: (1) the Loan Documents and (2) notification of changes in the terms of the Facilities.

NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES WARRANTS THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS.

IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL

150

DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY SUCH PERSON IS FOUND IN A FINAL RULING BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH PERSON’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

(b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications (including e-mail and internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article II if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication.

151

Section 9.04 Successors and Assigns. (a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

(b) Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) in the case of any assignment of a Term Loan Commitment or Term Loan, the Borrower must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and which consent shall be deemed to have been given if the Borrower has not responded within ten Business Days of a request for such consent), provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required to any such assignment (A) during the continuance of any Event of Default arising under Section 7.01(b), (c), (g) or (h), (B) in connection with the initial syndication of the Term Loan Facility by an Arranger or an Affiliate thereof until the Syndication Completion Date, or (C) if such assignment is made to another Lender, or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender, (iii) in the case of any assignment of a Revolving Credit Commitment or Revolving Loan, each of the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and the Borrower must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and which consent, in the case of the Borrower, shall be deemed to have been given if the Borrower has not responded within ten Business Days of a request for such consent); provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required to any such assignment (A) during the continuance of any Event of Default arising under Section 7.01(b), (c), (g) or (h), (B) in connection with the initial syndication of the Revolving Credit Facility by an Arranger or an Affiliate thereof until the Syndication Completion Date, or (C) if such assignment is made to another Lender, or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender, (iv) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an affiliated Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender, the amount of the Commitment and/or Loan of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000, in the case of the Term Loan Facility, or $5,000,000, in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Commitment), and shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Commitment), (v) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance via an electronic settlement system reasonably acceptable to the Administrative

152

Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually), and, except in the case of an assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender, shall pay to the Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, it being understood and agreed that only one such fee shall be payable in the case of multiple assignments on a given date by a Lender to an Eligible Assignee and Affiliates and Approved Funds (as if such Eligible Assignee was already a Lender) of such Eligible Assignee), and (vi) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender immediately prior to the assignment, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms or certifications required by Sections 2.20(e) and (f). Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14, Section 2.16, Section 2.20 and Section 9.05, as well as to any Fees accrued for its account and not yet paid). Notwithstanding any Initial Lender’s rights to assign its Commitments hereunder, no such Initial Lender shall be released from its obligation on the Initial Funding Date to fund its Commitment as in effect on the First Amendment Effective Date to the extent any assignee (or subsequent assignee) of such Initial Lender fails to fund on the Initial Funding Date the portion of such Commitment assigned to it by such Initial Lender, directly or indirectly, notwithstanding the satisfaction of the conditions to such funding.

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that its Term Loan Commitment and Revolving Credit Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its Term Loans and Revolving Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or the performance or observance by Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 3.05(a) or delivered pursuant to Section 5.04 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance

153

upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, respectively, by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms and certifications required by Sections 2.20(e) and (f), as applicable, completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above, if applicable, and the written consent of the Swingline Lender (if applicable), the Issuing Bank (if applicable), the Borrower (if applicable) and the Administrative Agent to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall promptly (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (e).

(f) Each Lender may without the consent of the Borrower, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Section 2.14, Section 2.16 and Section 2.20 (so long as such participating bank or other entity complies with the requirements of Sections 2.20(e) and (f) on or before the date it acquires its participation) to the same extent as if they were Lenders (but, with respect to any particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender that sold the participation to such participant) and (iv) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights

154

and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to the Loans or L/C Disbursements and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing any fees payable hereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans, extending any scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest on the Loans, increasing or extending the Commitments or releasing all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees or all or substantially all of the Collateral).

(g) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that, prior to any such disclosure of information designated by the Borrower as confidential, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or proposed participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of such confidential information on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.16.

(h) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including (i) any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank and (ii) in the case of any Lender that is an Approved Fund, any pledge or assignment to any holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Lender including to any trustee for, or any other representative of, such holders, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), 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 to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC 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 SPC 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 SPC 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 SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC 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 9.04,

155

any SPC 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 SPC 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 SPC.

(j) Except for the Intermediate Debt Assumption, the Final Debt Assumption and SSI Investments I becoming “Holdings” pursuant to clause (B) of the definition thereof, neither Holdings nor the Borrower shall assign or delegate any of its rights or duties hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void.

(k) In the event that any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender or S&P, Xxxxx’x and Xxxxxxxx’x “BankWatch” (or InsuranceWatch Ratings Service, in the case of Lenders that are insurance companies (or Best’s Insurance Reports, if such insurance company is not rated by Insurance Watch Ratings Service)) shall, after the date that any Lender becomes a Lender, downgrade the long term certificate deposit ratings of such Lender, and the resulting ratings shall be below BBB-, Baa3 and C (or BB, in the case of a Lender that is an insurance company (or B, in the case of an insurance company not rated by InsuranceWatch Ratings Service)) (or, with respect to any Lender that is not rated by any such ratings service or provider, any Issuing Bank shall have reasonably determined that there has occurred a material adverse change in the financial condition of any such Lender, or a material impairment of the ability of any such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, as compared to such condition or ability as of the date that any such Lender became a Lender) then such Issuing Bank shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its own expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to replace such Lender with an assignee (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above), and such Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above) all its interests, rights and obligations in respect of its Revolving Credit Commitment to such assignee; provided, however, that (i) no such assignment shall conflict with any law, rule and regulation or order of any Governmental Authority and (ii) such Issuing Bank or such assignee, as the case may be, shall pay to such Lender in immediately available funds on the date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made by such Lender hereunder and all other amounts accrued for such Lender’s account or owed to it hereunder.

Section 9.05 Expenses; Indemnity. (a) On and after the Initial Funding Date, Holdings and the Borrower agree, jointly and severally, to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (whether incurred prior to, on or after the Initial Funding Date) incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein and the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof or incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank or

156

any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including in each case the reasonable fees, disbursements and other out-of-pocket charges of Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP and A&L Goodbody, counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, and, in connection with any such enforcement or protection, the reasonable fees, disbursements and other out-of-pocket charges of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank or any Lender (limited to not more than one counsel per jurisdiction as designated by the Administrative Agent).

(b) Holdings and the Borrower agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, each Lender, the Issuing Bank and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, disbursements and other out-of-pocket charges, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated thereby (including the syndication of the Facilities), (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit, (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by Holdings, the Borrower, any other Loan Party, the Target or any of their respective affiliates, or (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on any property currently or formerly owned or operated by Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related costs and expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee; provided that the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses shall be subject to the provisions of Section 9.05(a) above.

(c) To the extent that Holdings and the Borrower fail to pay any amount required to be paid by them to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time (in each case, determined as if no Lender were a Defaulting Lender).

157

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither Holdings nor the Borrower shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the Transactions or the other transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, any Lender or the Issuing Bank. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing Section 9.05 shall not apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related costs and expenses in respect of Taxes which are expressly covered under Section 2.20.

Section 9.06 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, except to the extent prohibited by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of Holdings or the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of Holdings or the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

Section 9.07 Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN LETTERS OF CREDIT AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH LETTER OF CREDIT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OR RULES DESIGNATED IN SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT, OR IF NO SUCH LAWS OR RULES ARE DESIGNATED, THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS AND PRACTICE FOR DOCUMENTARY CREDITS MOST RECENTLY PUBLISHED AND IN EFFECT, ON THE DATE SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT WAS ISSUED, BY THE INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE (THE “UNIFORM CUSTOMS”) AND, AS TO MATTERS NOT GOVERNED BY THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 9.08 Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any

158

single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on Holdings or the Borrower in any case shall entitle Holdings or the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings, the Borrower and the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) decrease the principal amount of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan or any date for reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (ii) increase or extend the Commitment or decrease or extend the date for payment of any Fees of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) amend or modify the pro rata requirements of Section 2.17 (provided that any amendment or modification of the pro rata requirements of Section 2.17 to permit the Borrower to purchase Loans on a non-pro rata basis, become an Eligible Assignee and/or make offers to make voluntary prepayments on a non-pro rata basis shall require the prior written consent of the Required Lenders rather than the prior written consent of each Lender), the provisions of Section 9.04(j), the provisions of this Section or the definition of the term “Required Lenders”, without the prior written consent of each Lender, (iv) amend or modify the definition of the term “Majority Facility Lenders” without the prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (v) release any Guarantor (other than in connection with a transaction permitted by Section 6.05 or permitted by Section 9.20) or release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of each Lender, (vi) change the provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of one Class differently from the rights of Lenders holding Loans of any other Class without the prior written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each adversely affected Class, (vii) modify the protections afforded to an SPC pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.04(i) without the written consent of such SPC or (viii) amend, modify or waive the terms and provisions of Section 6.12 or waive any Default or Event of Default described in the provisos set forth in Section 7.01(d) without the prior written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any such amendment, modification or waiver shall be effective for all purposes of this Agreement with only the prior written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility (including any additional Revolving Credit Commitments obtained pursuant to Section 2.24 and any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments), on the one hand, and Holdings and the Borrower, on the other hand; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline

159

Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or modification hereunder, except for any such amendment, waiver or modification that requires the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 9.08(b) above, (i) amendments, modifications and waivers with respect to the Term Loan Facility that do not directly affect Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility shall only require the prior written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the Term Loan Facility in substitution of the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, on the one hand, and Holdings and the Borrower, on the other hand; provided, that any increase in the Applicable Margin or similar component of the interest rate or the yield provisions applicable to the Term Loans by more than 3.0% per annum (excluding increases resulting from the accrual of interest at the default rate) or any shortening of the scheduled maturity of the Term Loans shall require the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, on the one hand, and Holdings and the Borrower, on the other hand, and (ii) amendments, modifications and waivers with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility that do not directly affect Lenders under the Term Loan Facility shall only require the prior written consent approval of the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility in substitution of the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, on the one hand, and Holdings and the Borrower, on the other hand; provided that any increase in the Applicable Margin or similar component of the interest rate or the yield provisions applicable to the Revolving Loans by more than 3.0% per annum (excluding increases resulting from the accrual of interest at the default rate) or any shortening of the scheduled maturity of the Revolving Loans shall require the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, on the one hand, and Holdings and the Borrower, on the other hand.

(d) This Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders.

(e) This Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with replacement term loans (“Replacement Term Loans”) hereunder; provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (ii) the Applicable Margin with respect to such Replacement Term Loans (or similar interest rate spread applicable to such Replacement Term Loans) shall not be higher than the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Term Loans (or similar interest rate spread applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans) immediately prior to such refinancing, (iii) the weighted average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not

160

be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (except by virtue of amortization or prepayment of the Refinanced Term Loans) and (iv) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.

Section 9.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation in any L/C Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan or participation in such L/C Disbursement under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or participation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan or participation hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or participation but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.09 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or participations or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

Section 9.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Fee Letter and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any other previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors who need to know such Information (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or quasi-regulatory authority (such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to the enforcement of its rights hereunder or thereunder, (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.16, to (i) any actual or prospective assignee of or participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective obligations, (f) with the prior written consent of the Borrower or (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.16. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” shall mean all information received from or on behalf of Holdings or the Borrower and related to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that was available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure by Holdings or the Borrower; provided that, the source of such information was not actually known by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, to be bound by a confidentiality agreement or other legal or contractual obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.16 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord its own confidential information. Notwithstanding any other express or implied agreement, arrangement or understanding to the contrary, each of the parties hereto agrees that each other party hereto (and each of its employees, representatives or agents) are permitted to disclose to any Persons, without limitation, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Loans and the other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and all materials of any kind (including opinions and tax analyses) that are provided to the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Arrangers or any Agent related to such tax treatment and tax aspects. To the extent not inconsistent with the immediately preceding sentence, this authorization does not extend to disclosure of any other information or any other term or detail not related to the tax treatment or tax aspects of the Loans or the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

Section 9.17 Lender Action. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents (including the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Loan Party, unless expressly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Section 9.17 are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party.

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, Holdings and the Borrower acknowledge and agree that: (a) the Facilities provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between Holdings, the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents, the Arrangers and the Lenders, on the other hand, and Holdings and the other Loan Parties are capable of evaluating and understanding and understand and accept the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); (b) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, each Agent, each Arranger and each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for any of Holdings, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other person; (c) none of the Agents, any Arranger or any Lender has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of Holdings or any other Loan Party 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 any Agent, any Arranger or any Lender has advised or is currently advising Holdings or any other Loan Party or their respective Affiliates on other matters) and none of the Agents, any Arranger or any Lender has any obligation to any of Holdings, the other Loan Parties or their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (d) the Agents, the Arrangers, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Holdings and the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Agents, any Arranger or any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (e) the Agents, the Arrangers and the Lenders have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and the Borrower and the other Loan Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate. The Borrower, the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates each hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against the Agents, the Arrangers and the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.

Section 9.20 Collateral and Guarantee Matters. The Lenders irrevocably agree:

(a) that any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document shall be automatically released (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than (x) obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements not yet due and payable and (y) contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (or upon cash collateralization of all Letters of Credit in a manner and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank or back-stopped by a letter of credit in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank), (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is transferred or to be transferred as part of or in connection with any transfer permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Person other than Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, (iii) subject to Section 9.08(b), if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, or (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee of the Obligations pursuant to clause (c) below;

(b) to release or subordinate any Lien on any property subject to a Capitalized Lease Obligation permitted under this Agreement granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property;

(c) that any Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations under the Guarantee of the Obligations if (i) in the case of any Subsidiary, such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder or (ii) in the case of Holdings, as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder; provided that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of the Senior Notes or any Other Financing; and

(d) if any Guarantor shall become an Excluded Subsidiary (as certified in writing by a Responsible Officer) and the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in writing that it wishes such Guarantor to be released from its obligations under the Guarantee of the Obligations, (i) such Subsidiary shall be automatically released from its obligations under the Guarantee of the Obligations and (ii) any Liens granted by such Subsidiary or Liens on the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary shall be automatically released; provided that no such release shall occur if such Subsidiary continues to be a guarantor in respect of the Senior Notes or Other Financing.

In each case as specified in this Section 9.20, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent will promptly (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to), at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release or subordination of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee of the Obligations, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.20.
