In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in clause (e) of this Section, or of any

reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this clause in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If the applicable Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time or London time, as applicable, on the date that such L/C Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such L/C Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time or London time, as applicable, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time or London time, as applicable, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time or London time, as applicable, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that in the case of Dollar L/C Disbursements, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.3 or 2.4 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Revolving Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.6 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.6 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from such Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this clause, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this clause to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this clause to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any L/C Disbursement (other than the funding of Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in clause (e) of this Section 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 this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable 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, or (iv) 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, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any

payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse such 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 such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on part of an Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such 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 such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement.

(h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such L/C Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such L/C Disbursement, (i) if such L/C Disbursement is denominated in Dollars, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans and (ii) if such L/C Disbursement is denominated in a Qualified Foreign Currency, at the rate per annum determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds in the relevant currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) plus the Applicable Rate then applicable to Revolving Loans which are Eurocurrency Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such L/C Disbursement when due pursuant to clause (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this clause shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to clause (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of such Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of such Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein 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 replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated or the Revolving Commitments have been terminated, Revolving Lenders with L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this clause, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 103% of the L/C Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) of Article VII. Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative 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, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the L/C Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of, as applicable, Revolving Lenders with L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. 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.

(k) On and as of the Effective Date the Existing Letters of Credit will constitute Letters of Credit under this Agreement and for the purposes hereof will be deemed to have been issued hereunder for the account of the Borrower on the Effective Date for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 2.6 Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders in federal funds (in the case of any Loan denominated in Dollars) or such other immediately available funds as may then be customary for the settlement of international transactions in the relevant currency not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, in the case of fundings to an account in New York City, or 11:00 a.m., local time, in the case of fundings to an account in another jurisdiction; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.4. The Administrative Agent shall by 1:00 p.m. New York City time, in the case of fundings to an account in New York City, or 3:00 p.m. local time, in the case of fundings to an account in another jurisdiction, credit the amounts so received to an account designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request, which account must be in the name of the Borrower and, as applicable, in London or in the financial center of the country of the currency of the Loan 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; provided that Revolving Loans made

to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement as provided in Section 2.5(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the relevant Issuing Bank.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with clause (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount in the required currency. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon in such currency, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds in the relevant currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.7 Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing and Term Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower may not (i) elect to convert the currency in which any Loans are denominated, (ii) elect to convert Qualified Foreign Currency Loans from Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans, (iii) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans that does not comply with Section 2.2(d), (iv) elect to convert any ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans that would result in the number of Eurocurrency Borrowings exceeding the maximum number of Eurocurrency Borrowings permitted under Section 2.2(c), (v) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans unless the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Eurocurrency Loans (including any Eurocurrency Loans made to the Borrower in the same currency on the date that such Interest Period is to begin) to which such Interest Period will apply complies with the requirements as to minimum principal amount set forth in Section 2.2(c), or (vi) elect to convert or continue any Swingline Borrowings.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.3 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2 and clause (f) of this Section:


	(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be


	allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

	(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

	(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and

	(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no Borrowing denominated in Dollars may be made as, or converted to or continued as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) no Borrowing denominated in a Qualified Foreign Currency having an Interest Period in excess of one month may be made or continued.

(f) In the event that the Borrower fails to submit an Interest Election Request in accordance with this Section in respect of an outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowing, then such Loan shall automatically continue, at the end of the applicable Interest Period, as a Eurocurrency Loan having an Interest Period of one month.

SECTION 2.8 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Term Loan Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Effective Date and, unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

(b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the Total Revolving Exposure would exceed the total Revolving Commitments.

(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments under clause (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice

may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be applied ratably among the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments.

SECTION 2.9 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender on the Maturity Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Loan Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.10, (iii) in the case of Dollar denominated Swingline Loans, to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each such Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made and (iv) in the case of Qualified Foreign Currency denominated Swingline Loans, to the relevant Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each such Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the fifth Business Day after such Swingline Loan is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Overdraft Swingline Loans shall be due and payable on the next Business Day following the Business Day on which such Swingline Loans are made, unless their maturity is extended in the sole discretion of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., but not beyond the Maturity Date.

(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, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and 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 any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided 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 obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.10 Repayment of Term Loans. (a) The Term Loan of each Term Loan Lender shall mature in 12 consecutive quarterly installments, each of which shall be in an amount equal to such Lender’s Term Loan Percentage multiplied by the amount set forth below opposite such installment:


	Installment	Principal Amount

March 31, 2018		$687,500,000

(b) Each repayment or prepayment of a Term Borrowing shall be applied to the remaining installments of the Term Loans included in the repaid Borrowing as determined by the Borrower.

SECTION 2.11 Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this Section.

(b) If on any Determination Date, the Total Revolving Exposure exceeds 105% of the Revolving Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall, without notice or demand, within three Business Days after such Determination Date, repay such of the outstanding Revolving Loans in an aggregate principal amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the Total Revolving Exposure does not exceed the Revolving Commitments.

(c) Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to clause (d) of this Section.

(d) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time or 11:00 a.m., London time as applicable), three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time or 11:00 a.m. London time, as applicable, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the repayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that, if a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.8, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.8. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in

Section 2.2, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing. Each prepayment of Term Loans shall be applied to the installments thereof in direct order of maturity. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13 and any compensation pursuant to Section 2.16, if applicable.

SECTION 2.12 Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (other than Defaulting Lenders) a facility fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender (whether or not utilized) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate. Accrued facility fees shall be payable in arrears on each Fee Payment Date and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. All facility fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate then in effect with respect to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s L/C Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any L/C Exposure, and (ii) to the relevant Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Fronting Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the L/C Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements), during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any L/C Exposure, as well as the relevant Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the relevant Issuing Bank pursuant to this clause shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of facility fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.13 Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) Dollar Borrowings of Swingline Loans shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. Qualified Foreign Currency Borrowings of Swingline Loans shall have an Interest Period of at least one day and not more than one month and shall bear interest at rate at which each JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. offers to place deposits in the currency of such Swingline Loan for such Interest Period to first-class banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the first day of such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Revolving Loans. In the case of an Overdraft Swingline Loan, the interest rate shall be quoted by the Swingline Lender to the Borrower.

(c) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan or Term Loan, the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), all outstanding Loans and Reimbursement Obligations (whether or not overdue) shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.13 or 2.5(h) as the case may be, in each case plus 2%, and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any facility fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to ABR Loans plus 2% or, in the case of amounts denominated in a Qualified Foreign Currency at the rate per annum determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds in the relevant currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) plus the Applicable Rate then in effect with respect to Eurocurrency Loans plus 2%, in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

(e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to clause (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on Prime Rate, and interest in respect of Sterling Loans, shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period;

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; or

(c) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing and in the currency in which such Loans are to be denominated are not generally available in the relevant market,

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by the Borrower for a Eurocurrency Borrowing of the affected Type or in the affected currency, or a conversion to or continuation of a Eurocurrency Borrowing of the affected Type or in the affected currency, pursuant to Section 2.3 or 2.7, shall be deemed rescinded; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.

SECTION 2.15 Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law (other than changes in the rate of net income, franchise or similar taxes) shall:


	(i) subject any Credit Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document and (B) Other Connection Taxes on gross or net income, profits or revenue (including value-added or similar Taxes)) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

	(ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge, liquidity or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate) or the Issuing Bank; or

	(iii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency 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 such other Credit Party of making, continuing, converting or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or in the case of (i), any Loan) (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then each relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank or such other Credit Party, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such other Credit Party, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit

held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in clause (a) or (b) of this Section and the basis of the calculation thereof shall be delivered to the Borrower, and such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s calculation of such amount or amounts shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.16 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(d) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Rate included therein, if any), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the relevant currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the relevant market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.17 Taxes

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of a Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any

Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that, if any Withholding Agent determines that it is so required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Withholding Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) such Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Loan Parties shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) (i) the Loan Parties shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, within 15 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes actually paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of 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) and any penalties, interest and reasonable 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 certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(ii) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.17(c)(ii) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the

preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.17(e)(ii)(A) through (E) and Section 2.17(e)(iii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense (or, in the case of a Change in Law, any incremental material unreimbursed cost or expense) or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.17(e). If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so.


	(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is a United States person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “U.S. Person”), any Lender with respect to the Borrower shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto, duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

	(A) in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

	(B) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (1) with respect to payments of interest under this Agreement, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

	(C) in the case of a Foreign Lender for whom payments under this Agreement constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;

	(D) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN and (2) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E (a “U.S. Tax Certificate”) to the effect that such Lender is not (a) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, (c) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (d) conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected;

	(E) in the case of a Foreign Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made under this Agreement (including a partnership or a Lender that sells participations pursuant to Section 9.5(c)(i)) (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) and (F) of this paragraph (e)(ii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; provided, however, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners


	are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Certificate on behalf of such partners; or

	(F) any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld.

	(iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(e)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(f) If a Lender or Issuing Bank determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of such refund and shall within 30 days from the date of receipt of such refund pay over the amount of such refund (including any interest paid or credited by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund) to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender or Issuing Bank and without interest; provided, however, that the Borrower, upon the request of such Lender or Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus penalties, interest or other charges due to the appropriate authorities in connection therewith) to such Lender or Issuing Bank in the event such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, is required to repay such refund to such relevant authority. This Section 2.17(f) shall not be construed to require any Lender or Issuing Bank to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(g) For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

SECTION 2.18 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of fees or reimbursement of L/C Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., local time, at place of payment, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to such account of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent shall specify by notice to the Borrower and, unless and until otherwise specified, all such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its Administrative Office, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17, 9.4 and 9.5 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, each

such payment (other than principal of and interest on Qualified Foreign Currency Loans and L/C Disbursements denominated in a Qualified Foreign Currency, which shall be made in the applicable Qualified Foreign Currency) 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. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed L/C Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed L/C Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed L/C Disbursements then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, pursuant to a court order or by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans, participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans, Term Loans, participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans, Term Loans, participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, unless the Lender from which such payment is recovered is required to pay interest thereon, in which case each Lender returning funds to such Lender shall pay its pro rata share of such interest, and (ii) the provisions of this clause 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 or participations in L/C Disbursements to any Assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this clause shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the relevant Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment

to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.4(c), 2.5(d) or (e), 2.6(a), 2.18(d) or 9.4(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.5 or pursuant to other procedure approved by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, which may include deemed assignment), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld and (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts). A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.20 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);

(b) the Revolving Commitment and Revolving Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.2); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby;


	(i) (i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages but only to the extent the sum of each non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Exposure plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure does not exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment;

	(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lender only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.5(j) for so long as such L/C Exposure is outstanding;

	(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is cash collateralized;

	(iv) if the L/C Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(b)(i) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Percentages; and

	(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all fees payable under Section 2.12(b)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Lender until and to the extent that such L/C Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(b) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding L/C Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.20(c), and participating interests in any newly made Swingline Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.20(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Lender Parent of any Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lender has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Percentage.

SECTION 2.21 Incremental Loans. At any time or from time to time after the Effective Date (on one or more occasions), by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), without having to seek consent from the Lenders, the Borrower may request (a) one or more additional tranches of term loans or additional Term Loans under an existing tranche (the “Incremental Term Loans”) and (b) one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving Commitments (each such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase” and, together with any Incremental Term Loans, referred to herein as a “Credit Increase”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $750,000,000; provided that both at the time of any such request and upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment referred to below, no Default or Event of Default shall exist and at the time that any such Incremental Term Loan is made (and immediately after giving effect thereto) no Default or Event of Default shall exist. The Incremental Term Loans (A) shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the other Loans, (B) shall not mature or have any installments prior to the Maturity Date, (C) will accrue interest at rates determined by the Borrower and the lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans, which rates may be higher or lower than the rates applicable to the Term Loans, and (D) except with respect to clauses (B) and (C) above, shall be subject to terms and conditions substantially the same as the Term Loans. Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Credit Increases and demonstrate compliance with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of this Section. Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Revolving Commitment Increases may be provided, by any existing Lender or by any other bank or other financial institution (any such other bank or other financial institution being called an “Additional Lender”); provided that the Administrative Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such Lenders or Additional Lenders making such Incremental Term Loans or providing such Revolving Commitment Increases, if such consent would be required under Section 9.5 for an assignment of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Lender. Commitments in respect of Credit Increases shall become Commitments (or in the case of a Revolving Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Revolving Lender, an increase in such Lender’s applicable Revolving Commitment) under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent. An Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions and intent of this Section and the application of the proceeds thereof. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Credit Increases, unless it so agrees. Upon each increase in the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section, the participations held by the Revolving Lenders in Letters of Credit or L/C Commitment immediately prior to such increase will be reallocated so as to be held by the Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase. If, on the date of a Revolving Commitment Increase, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding under the Revolving Commitments being increased, the Borrower shall prepay such Revolving Loans in accordance with this Agreement on the date of effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase (but the Borrower may finance such prepayment with a concurrent borrowing of Revolving Loans from the Revolving Lenders after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase). The Borrower may use

the proceeds of each Credit Increase for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement unless otherwise agreed in connection with such Credit Increase.

SECTION 2.22 Refinancing Term Loans. At any time or from time to time after the Effective Date (on one or more occasions), with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Borrower may request one or more additional tranches of term loans (the “Refinancing Term Loans”) be made available under this Agreement to refinance, in whole or in part, outstanding Term Loans; provided that both at the time of any such request and upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment referred to below, no Default or Event of Default shall exist and at the time that any such Refinancing Term Loan is made (and immediately after giving effect thereto) no Default or Event of Default shall exist. The Refinancing Term Loans (A) shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the other Loans, (B) shall not mature or have any installments prior to the Maturity Date unless all Term Loans are being refinanced by such Refinancing Term Loans, (C) will accrue interest at rates determined by the Borrower and the lenders providing such Refinancing Term Loans, which rates may be higher or lower than the rates applicable to the Term Loans and shall be subject to fees payable to the lenders providing such Refinancing Term Loans and an arrangement fee to the Administrative Agent (or its designee), all as agreed in connection with the funding of such Refinancing Term Loans, (D) if Revolving Commitments are outstanding at the time such Refinancing Term Loans are made, then such Refinancing Term Loans shall not mature prior to the Maturity Date nor have a percentage of the initial principal amount thereof amortize in any quarter that is greater than the percentage amortization made in such quarter on the Term Loans being refinanced, (E) shall not have a principal amount in excess of the principal amount of the Term Loans being refinanced plus unpaid and accrued interest thereon and for fees and expenses relating thereto and (F) except with respect to clauses (B), (C) and (D) above, shall be subject to terms and conditions substantially the same as the Term Loans. Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Refinancing Term Loans and demonstrate compliance with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of this Section. Refinancing Term Loans may be made by any existing Lender or by any Additional Lender; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such Lender’s or Additional Lender’s making such Refinancing Term Loans, if such consent would be required under Section 9.5 for an assignment of Term Loans to such Lender or Additional Lender. Commitments in respect of Refinancing Term Loans shall become Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (a “Refinancing Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent. A Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions and intent of this Section and the application of the proceeds thereof. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Refinancing Term Loans, unless it so agrees. The Borrower shall apply the proceeds of Refinancing Term Loans to the repayment or prepayment of the Term Loans on the date of the incurrence of such Refinancing Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.11. This Section 2.22 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or Section 9.2 to the contrary.

(g) an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or an involuntary petition shall be filed seeking (i) liquidation, administration, reorganization or other relief in respect of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary) or its debts, or of a substantial part of its assets, under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect or (ii) the appointment of a receiver, administrative receiver, administrator, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or similar official for the Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary) or for a substantial part of its assets, and, in any such case, such proceeding or petition shall continue undismissed for 60 days or an order or decree approving or ordering any of the foregoing shall be entered;

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent

Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

The bank serving as the Administrative 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 the Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not 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 is required to exercise 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 9.2), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or

obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.2) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with 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, or (v) 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 the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative 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 proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for 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.

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

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, each Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), to appoint a successor; provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (g) or (h) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 10 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.4 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative 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 it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other 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 Administrative Agent or any other 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, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

None of the Syndication Agents or the Joint Lead Arrangers shall have any duties or responsibilities under any Loan Document in their respective capacities as such.

Neither the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers nor any Lender has any advisory or fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor.

SECTION 9.2 Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any 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, any 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 any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by clause (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or L/C Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) postpone the date fixed for the payment of the principal amount (including the final scheduled payment) of any Loan or L/C Disbursement, or the date fixed for the payment of any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, or permit a Letter of Credit to expire later than the date referred to in Section 2.5(c)(ii) without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) change any provision of this Agreement providing for pro rata sharing of the payments among the Lenders without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be) or (vi) release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their Guarantees under the Subsidiary Guarantee (except as expressly provided therein), without the written consent of each Lender; provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Swingline Lender, as the case may be.

SECTION 9.3 Judgment Currency. (a) The Borrower’s obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in a specified currency (the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent or a Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Loan Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Borrower covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

(c) For purposes of determining any rate of exchange or currency equivalent for this Section, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

SECTION 9.4 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers and each of their respective Affiliates including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein or preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on any Property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) any conversion or translation of a currency into another currency, or (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto and whether or not the same are brought by the Borrower, its equity holders, affiliates or creditors or any other Person; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or the material breach by such Indemnitee of its obligations under the Loan Documents.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under clause (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the relevant 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 relevant 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 total Revolving Exposures, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and the Borrower 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) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 15 days after written demand therefor.

(f) No Indemnitee referred to in paragraph (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

SECTION 9.5 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”), other than a natural person, any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of:

(A) the Borrower (which consent, in the case of an Eligible Assignee, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Person, and provided, further, that, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless the Borrower shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within fifteen Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; and

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans, the minimum aggregate assignment amount and the minimum amount retained by the assignor after giving effect to any partial assignment shall, in each case, be $5,000,000 unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent;

(B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the 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 Sections 2.15, 2.17 and 9.4). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.5 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and L/C Exposure 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 and the Lenders shall 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 at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”), other than a natural person, any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such

obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to Section 9.2(b) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.17 and 9.4 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.9 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless such Participant complies with Section 2.17(e) as if it were a Lender.

(d) 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 any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to any central bank or a member bank of the Federal Reserve System or central bank, 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.

(e) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph (d) above.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in Section (b). Each of the Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or

expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance.

SECTION 9.6 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17, 9.4, 9.13 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.7 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by email or telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.8 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.9 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted 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 obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 9.10 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its Property, to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state or federal courts located in the Borough of

Manhattan in the City of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that, to the extent permitted by law, a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or the Borrower’s properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in clause (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.1. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 9.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 9.12 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 9.13 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors in connection with the Transactions and the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (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, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same

as those of this Section, to any Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (g) with the consent of the Borrower, (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or (i) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any credit insurance provider or direct, indirect, actual or prospective counterparty (and its advisor) to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction related to the obligations under this Agreement. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower.

SECTION 9.14 Releases of Guarantees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by Section 9.2) to take any action requested by the Borrower having the effect of releasing any guarantee obligations to the extent necessary to permit the consummation of any transaction that is permitted by this Agreement or that has been consented to in accordance with Section 9.2.

SECTION 9.15 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.

The Lenders listed on Schedule I hereto

and the Administrative Agent

(as defined below) party to the

Credit Agreement referred to below

(collectively, the “Lender Parties”)

c/o JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.,

as Administrative Agent

Re: Coty Inc. – Credit Agreement dated as April 2, 2013

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to Coty Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Coty US LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Coty US”), Xxxxxx Xxxxx Cosmetic Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“CKCC”), O P I Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“OPI Products”), Philosophy Acquisition Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Philosophy Acquisition”) and Philosophy, Inc., an Arizona corporation (“Philosophy” and, together with Coty US, CKCC, OPI Products and Philosophy Acquisition, the “Subsidiary Guarantors” and, together with the Company, the “Obligors”) in connection with that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of April 2, 2013 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, as borrower, the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent thereunder (in such capacity, the “Agent”) and a Lender. Each capitalized term used and not defined herein has the meaning assigned to that term in the Credit Agreement.

In rendering this opinion, we have examined the originals, or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction as being true copies, of the following documents and instruments:


	(i) the Credit Agreement, including the Exhibits and Schedules thereto;

	(ii) the Notes dated as of April 2, 2013 (the “Notes”) made by the Company payable to the Lenders and their registered assigns and delivered to the Lenders on the date hereof; and

	(iii) the Subsidiary Guarantee dated as of April 2, 2013 (the “Subsidiary Guarantee”) by the Subsidiary Guarantors in favor of the Agent.

The Lender Parties

c/o JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.

The Credit Agreement, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantee are referred to herein collectively as the “Financing Documents.”

We have assumed without independent investigation that:

(a) The signatures on all documents examined by us are genuine, all individuals executing such documents had all requisite legal capacity and competency and were duly authorized, the documents submitted to us as originals are authentic and the documents submitted to us as certified or reproduction copies conform to the originals;

(b) Each Obligor is a validly existing corporation or limited liability company, as applicable, in good standing under the laws of its state of formation, has all requisite corporate or limited liability company, as applicable, power to execute and deliver each of the Financing Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder, the execution and delivery of such Financing Documents by such Obligor and performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability or other action and except as specifically addressed in our opinions in paragraph 2 below, do not violate any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree applicable to such Obligor, and such Financing Documents have been duly executed and delivered by each such Obligor; and

(c) There are no agreements or understandings between or among any of the parties to the Financing Documents or third parties that would expand, modify or otherwise affect the terms of the Financing Documents or the respective rights or obligations of the parties thereunder.

In rendering this opinion, we have made such inquiries and examined, among other things, originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such records, agreements, certificates, instruments and other documents as we have considered necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion. As to certain factual matters, we have relied to the extent we deemed appropriate and without independent investigation upon the representations and warranties of the Obligors in the Financing Documents, a certificate of officers of the Company, a copy of which is attached hereto (the “Officers’ Certificate”) or certificates obtained from public officials and others.

Based upon the foregoing and in reliance thereon, and subject to the qualifications,

The Lender Parties

c/o JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.

exceptions, assumptions and limitations herein contained, we are of the opinion that:

1. Each Financing Document constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Obligor party thereto enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its terms.

2. The execution and delivery by each Obligor of the Financing Documents to which it is a party, and performance of its obligations thereunder, do not and will not violate, or require any filing with or approval of any governmental authority or regulatory body of the State of New York or the United States of America under, any law, rule or regulation of the State of New York or the United States of America applicable to such Obligor that, in our experience, is generally applicable to transactions in the nature of those contemplated by the Financing Documents.

3. No Obligor is required to register as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

4. The execution and delivery by each Obligor of the Financing Documents to which it is a party, and the performance of its obligations thereunder, do not result in a breach or violation of Regulation U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

The opinions expressed above are subject to the following additional exceptions, qualifications, limitations and assumptions:

A. We render no opinion herein as to matters involving the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York and the United States of America. This opinion is limited to the effect of the current state of the laws of the State of New York, the United States of America and the facts as they currently exist. We assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion in the event of future changes in such laws or the interpretations thereof or such facts. Except as expressly set forth in paragraph 3 above, we express no opinion regarding the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any other federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations.

B. Our opinions are subject to (i) the effect of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, arrangement or similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally (including, without limitation, the effect of statutory or other laws

The Lender Parties

regarding fraudulent transfers or preferential transfers) and (ii) general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

C. We express no opinion regarding (a) the effectiveness of (i) any waiver (whether or not stated as such) under the Financing Documents of, or any consent thereunder relating to, unknown future rights or the rights of any party thereto existing, or duties owing to it, as a matter of law; (ii) any waiver (whether or not stated as such) contained in the Financing Documents of rights of any party, or duties owing to it, that is broadly or vaguely stated or does not describe the right or duty purportedly waived with reasonable specificity; (iii) provisions relating to indemnification, exculpation or contribution, to the extent such provisions may be held unenforceable as contrary to public policy or federal or state securities laws or due to the negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnified party; (iv) any provision in any Financing Document waiving the right to object to venue in any court; (v) any agreement to submit to the jurisdiction of any Federal Court; (vi) any waiver of the right to jury trial; (vii) any provision purporting to establish evidentiary standards; (viii) any provision to the effect that every right or remedy is cumulative and may be exercised in addition to any other right or remedy or that the election of some particular remedy does not preclude recourse to one or more others; (ix) (A) any provision that would require payment of any unamortized original issue discount (including any original issue discount effectively created by payment of a fee), or (B) any closing fees, to the extent they are considered to be fees for the “brokerage, soliciting, driving or procuring of a loan” and exceed 0.50% of the amount thereof in violation of New York General Obligations Law Section 5-531; (x) any fraudulent transfer “savings” provision; (xi) any right of setoff to the extent asserted by a participant in the rights of a Lender under the Financing Documents or (b) the effect on the enforceability of any Subsidiary Guarantee or other Financing Documents against any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other “surety” (which could include a co-borrower jointly liable for loans extended to another co-borrower, a hypothecator of property to secure obligations owed by another person or a common creditor that has subordinated obligations owing to it), of any facts or circumstances occurring after the date hereof that would constitute a defense to the obligation of a surety, unless such defense has been waived effectively by such Guarantor or other surety. In addition, we advise you that

some of the provisions of the Financing Documents may not be enforceable by a Lender acting individually (as opposed to the Lenders acting through the Agent).

D. For purposes of our opinion in paragraph 4, we have assumed without independent investigation that: (i) the representation and warranty of the Company set forth in Section 3.15(b) of the Credit Agreement is and will be true and correct at all relevant times and (ii) less than 25% of the value of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, or of any of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries, individually, subject to the negative covenants of the Credit Agreement consist and will consist of “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulations U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System at all relevant times. We express no opinion with respect to Regulation T of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

This opinion is rendered as of the date hereof to the Lender Parties in connection with the Financing Documents and may not be relied upon by any person other than the Lender Parties or by the Lender Parties in any other context. The Lender Parties may not furnish this opinion or copies hereof to any other person except (i) to bank examiners and other regulatory authorities should they so request in connection with their normal examinations, (ii) to the independent auditors and attorneys of the Lender Parties, (iii) pursuant to order or legal process of any court or governmental agency, (iv) in connection with any legal action to which any Lender Party is a party arising out of the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents, or (v) to any potential permitted assignee of or participant in the interest of any Lender Party under the Financing Documents for its information. This opinion may not be quoted without the prior written consent of this Firm.

Officers’ Certificate

The undersigned, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx do hereby certify to Xxxxxx, Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP (“Xxxxxx Xxxx”), in their capacities as officers of Coty Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), Coty US LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Coty US”), Xxxxxx Xxxxx Cosmetic Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“CKCC”), O P I Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“OPI Products”), Philosophy Acquisition Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Philosophy Acquisition”) and Philosophy, Inc., an Arizona corporation (“Philosophy” and, together with Coty US, CKCC, OPI Products and Philosophy Acquisition, the “Subsidiary Guarantors” and, together with the Borrower, the “Companies”) in connection with that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of April 2, 2013 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, as borrower, the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent thereunder (in such capacity, the “Agent”) and a Lender, as follows:

1. We are the duly elected and incumbent Chief Financial Officer and General Counsel, respectively, of the Company, are officers of each of the Subsidiary Guarantors and are authorized to execute this Certificate on behalf of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors.

2. We recognize and acknowledge that this Certificate is being furnished to Xxxxxx Xxxx in connection with their delivery of their legal opinion of even date herewith pursuant to Section 4.01(c)(ii) of the Credit Agreement (the “GDC Opinion”). We further understand that Xxxxxx Xxxx is relying to a material degree on this Certificate in rendering that opinion. On behalf of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, we hereby authorize such reliance.

3. We have asked such questions regarding the meaning of any of the provisions of this Certificate as we have considered necessary.

4. Prior to the date hereof, the Company and each of the Company Subsidiaries have delivered to Xxxxxx Xxxx true and correct copies of the most-current formation documents and by-laws or operating agreements, as applicable, for the Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, including all amendments and restatements, and such documents have not been amended or otherwise modified since the date shown on the face of such documents or the most recent such amendment or restatement.

5. Prior to the date hereof, the Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors have delivered to Xxxxxx Xxxx copies of all resolutions and other similar action passed by the respective board of directors or board of managers, as applicable, of the Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors relating to the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement. None of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries that are limited liability companies have been dissolved by a vote of its members.

6. To the best of our knowledge, each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors is engaged, directly or through a wholly-owned subsidiary or subsidiaries, in the business of fragrance, color cosmetics and skin and body care (the “Principal Business”) and does not hold itself out as being engaged in any other business. All subsidiaries of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor that are not wholly-owned are immaterial, and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Guarantor owns any significant amount of securities or other financial assets, other than demand deposits, U.S. money market funds and stock of wholly-owned subsidiaries engaged in the Principal Business. As used in the preceding sentence, a “wholly-owned subsidiary” of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor is a company of which at least 95% of the securities entitled to vote in the election of directors are held by the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor or by a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor or if such company does not have a board of directors, the sole power to otherwise direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such company is possessed by the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor or a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor.

7. To the best of our knowledge, each and all of the representations and warranties as to factual matters relating to the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors contained in the Financing Documents are true and correct in all material respects as of the date of such agreement and as of the date hereof.

8. To the best of our knowledge, less than 25% of the value of the assets of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or of any of the Company and any of the Company Subsidiaries, individually subject to the negative covenants of the Credit Agreement consist of “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. None of the proceeds of the loans and other extensions of credit made under the Credit Agreement will be used, directly or indirectly, to make loans to any person that will be secured by margin stock or will have the benefit of any arrangement restricting the disposition or pledge of margin stock.

9. To the best of our knowledge, there are no agreements or understandings between or among the Agent, the Lenders, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors or third parties that would expand, modify or otherwise affect the terms of the Financing Documents referred to in the GDC Opinion or the respective rights or obligations of the parties thereunder.

Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Credit Agreement. This Certificate may be executed in two or more counterparts. A copy of this Certificate executed and delivered by facsimile or email transmission shall be valid for all purposes.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Certificate as of April 2, 2013.

[FORM OF] SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE, dated as of ______________ (this “Guarantee”), made by _______________________, a ________________________ (the “Guarantor” together with the other Guarantors referred to in the Credit Agreement, the “Guarantors”), in favor of JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A. as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) under the Credit Agreement, dated as of April 2, 2013 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among COTY INC. (the “Borrower”), the agents named therein, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have severally agreed to make Loans and other extensions of credit to the Borrower upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein;

WHEREAS, the Borrower is a member of an affiliated group of corporations that includes the Guarantors;

WHEREAS, the proceeds of the Loans and other extensions of credit will be used in part to enable the Borrower to make valuable transfers to the Guarantors in connection with the operation of their businesses;

WHEREAS, the Guarantors and the Borrower are engaged in related businesses, and the Guarantors will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the making of the Loans and other extensions of credit; and

WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the obligation of the Lenders to make their respective Loans and other extensions of credit to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement that the Guarantors and the other Subsidiary Guarantors referred to in the Credit Agreement shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a guarantee agreement (each, including this Guarantee, a “Subsidiary Guarantee”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and to induce the Lenders to make their respective Loans and other extensions of credit to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Guarantors hereby agree with the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, as follows:

1. Defined Terms. (a) Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement and used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.

(b) As used herein, “Obligations” means the collective reference to the unpaid principal of and interest on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and all other obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders (including, without limitation, interest accruing at the then applicable rate provided in the Credit Agreement after the maturity of the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations and interest accruing at the then applicable rate provided in the Credit

Agreement after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Borrower, whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding), whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter incurred, which may arise under, out of, or in connection with, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other document made, delivered or given in connection therewith, whether on account of principal, interest, reimbursement obligations, fees, indemnities, costs, expenses or otherwise (including, without limitation, all fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent or to the Lenders that are required to be paid by the Borrower, the Guarantors, or any other Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, this Guarantee, any other Subsidiary Guarantee or any other Loan Document).

(c) As used herein, “Commodity Exchange Act” means the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.), as amended from time to time, and any successor statute.

(d) As used herein, “Excluded Swap Obligation” means, with respect to any Guarantor, any Swap Obligation if, and to the extent that, all or a portion of the Guarantee of such Guarantor of such Swap Obligation (or any Guarantee thereof) is or becomes illegal under the Commodity Exchange Act or any rule, regulation or order of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (or the application or official interpretation of any thereof) by virtue of such Guarantor’s failure to constitute an “eligible contract participant,” as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations thereunder, at the time the guarantee (or grant of such security interest by, as applicable) of such Guarantor becomes or would become effective with respect to such Swap Obligation. If a Swap Obligation arises under a master agreement governing more than one Swap, such exclusion shall apply only to the portion of such Swap Obligation that is attributable to Swaps for which such guarantee or security interest is or becomes illegal.

(e) As used herein, “Qualified ECP Guarantor” means, in respect of any Swap Obligation, each Loan Party that, at the time the relevant guarantee (or grant of security interest, as applicable) becomes or would become effective with respect to such Swap Obligation, has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 or such other person as constitutes an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulations promulgated thereunder and can cause another person to qualify as an “eligible contract participant” with respect to such Swap Obligation at such time by entering into a keepwell under Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

(f) As used herein, “Swap” means, with respect to any agreement, contract or transaction that constitutes a “swap” within the meaning of section 1a(47) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

(g) As used herein, “Swap Obligation” means, with respect to any person, any obligation to pay or perform under any Swap.

(h) The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Guarantee shall refer to this Guarantee as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Guarantee, and section and paragraph references are to this Guarantee unless otherwise specified.

(i) The meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of such terms.

2. Guarantee (a) Subject to the provisions of paragraph (b), each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Borrower when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or

otherwise) of the Obligations (excluding, with respect to any Guarantor, any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor).

(b) Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable laws relating to the insolvency of debtors.

(c) Each Guarantor further agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, all fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, such Guarantor under this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto the Borrower may be free from any Obligations.

(d) Each Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing this Guarantee or affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder.

(e) No payment or payments made by the Borrower, any Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from the Borrower, any Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments other than payments made by such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or payments received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations, remain liable for the Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated.

(f) Each Guarantor agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, it shall make any payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of its liability hereunder, it will notify the Administrative Agent in writing that such payment is made under this Guarantee for such purpose.

(g) Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guarantee in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 2 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 2, or otherwise under this Guarantee, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto the Borrower may be free from any Obligations. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 2 constitute, and this Section 2 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

3. Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that, to the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payments made in respect of the Subsidiary Guarantees, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution

from and against the Guarantors hereunder. Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 5 hereof. The provisions of this Section shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for the full amount guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee.

4. Right of Set-off. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and each Lender at any time and from time to time without notice to any Guarantor or any other guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by each Guarantor, to set-off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Administrative Agent or such Lender may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder and claims of every nature and description of the Administrative Agent or such Lender against such Guarantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Credit Agreement, any Loan Documents or otherwise, as the Administrative Agent or such Lender may elect, whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Lender has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall notify such Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Administrative Agent or such Lender may have.

5. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by any of the Subsidiary Guarantors under any Subsidiary Guarantee or any set-off or application of funds of any of the Subsidiary Guarantors by any Lender, the Guarantors shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or other guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall the Guarantors seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or other guarantor in respect of payments made by any Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by the Borrower on account of the Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full or the Commitments shall not have been terminated, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.

6. Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights. The Guarantors shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Guarantors and without notice to or further assent by the Guarantors, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by such party and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised,

waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and the Credit Agreement, and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for this Guarantee or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor or other guarantor, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such demand or to collect any payments from the Borrower or other Subsidiary Guarantor or other guarantor or any release of the Borrower or other Guarantor or other guarantor shall not relieve the Guarantors of their obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Guarantors. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

7. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. The Guarantors waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon this Guarantee; and all dealings between the Borrower and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. The Guarantors waive diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or any of the other Subsidiary Guarantors or other guarantors with respect to the Obligations. The Guarantors understand and agree that this Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor or other guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for the Obligations, of any Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee, or of any other guarantor, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower, any other Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower, other Subsidiary Guarantor or other guarantor or other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower, other Subsidiary Guarantor or other guarantor or other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Guarantors of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against the Guarantors. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and the respective successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders,

and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, until all the Obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under this Guarantee shall have been satisfied by payment in full and the Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement the Borrower may be free from any Obligations.

8. Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, administration, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or other guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, administrative receiver, administrator, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or other guarantor or any substantial part of the property of the Borrower, Subsidiary Guarantor or other guarantor, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

9. Payments. The Guarantors hereby guarantee that payments hereunder will be paid to the Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in the relevant currency at the Administrative Office specified by the Administrative Agent.

10. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that each of the representations and warranties made in Article III of the Credit Agreement is true and correct. Each Guarantor agrees that the foregoing representations and warranties shall be deemed to have been made by such Guarantor on the date of each borrowing by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement on and as of such date of borrowing as though made hereunder on and as of such date.

11. [Intentionally Omitted]

12. Authority of Administrative Agent. The Guarantors acknowledge that the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Guarantee with respect to any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Guarantee shall, as between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Administrative Agent and the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Lenders with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and the Guarantors shall not be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

13. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Guarantors to be effective shall be in writing (or by telex, fax or similar electronic transfer confirmed in writing) and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered by hand or if given by mail, when deposited in the mails by certified mail, return receipt requested, or if by telex, fax or similar electronic transfer, when sent and receipt has been confirmed, addressed as follows:

(b) if to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, at its address or transmission number for notices provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement; and

The Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Guarantor may change its address and transmission numbers for notices by notice in the manner provided in this Section.

14. Severability. Any provision of this Guarantee which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

15. Integration. This Guarantee represents the agreement of the Guarantors with respect to the subject matter hereof and there are no promises or representations by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not reflected herein.

16. Amendments in Writing; No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. (a) None of the terms or provisions of this Guarantee may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed in accordance with Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to paragraph 16(a) hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or such Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion.

(c) The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

17. Section Headings. The section headings used in this Guarantee are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

18. Successors and Assigns. This Guarantee shall be binding upon each Guarantor’s successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their successors and assigns.

19. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Guarantee shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its Property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guarantee, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each Guarantor agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions, to the extent permitted by law, by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guarantee or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guarantee against any Guarantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guarantee in any court referred to in clause (b) of this Section. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each Guarantor agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to CT Corporation System Inc. at its address at 0000 Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, or to the Guarantor at the address set forth underneath its signature hereinbelow and agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law.

20. (a) Each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder to make payments in a specified currency (the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent or a Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Guarantee. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Guarantor in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

21. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTEE, (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the undersigned has caused this Guarantee to be duly executed and delivered by its duly authorized officer as of the day and year first above written.

Payment of the Subordinated Indebtedness is and shall be expressly subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of the Senior Indebtedness to the extent and in the manner set forth herein, and the Subordinated Indebtedness is hereby so subordinated as a claim against the Obligor or any of the assets of the Obligor, whether such claim be (i) in the event of any distribution of the assets of the Obligor upon any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding-up, total or partial liquidation or reorganization, or bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other statutory or common law proceedings or arrangements involving the Obligor or the readjustment of its liabilities or any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of its assets or liabilities (collectively called a “Reorganization”), or (ii) other than in connection with a Reorganization, to the prior payment in full in cash of the Senior Indebtedness.

If the holder hereof shall receive any payment in violation of the terms hereof it shall hold such payment in trust for the benefit of the Senior Creditors and forthwith pay it over to the Administrative Agent, ratably according the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness outstanding or owing under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, for application to and payment of the Senior Indebtedness.

In the event of any Reorganization relative to the Obligor or its properties, then all of the Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full in cash before any payment is made upon the Subordinated Indebtedness, and in any such proceedings any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash or property or securities, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of this Affiliate Subordinated Note shall be paid or delivered directly to the Administrative Agent, for application in payment of the Senior Indebtedness, unless and until all such Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash, and the holder hereof hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, as attorney-in-fact for such holder, to prove any claiming such proceedings on the Subordinated Indebtedness, and to demand, xxx for, collect and receive any such payment or distribution, and to apply such payment or distribution to the payment of the then unpaid Senior Indebtedness, and to take such other action (including acceptance or rejection of any plan of Reorganization) in the name of such holder or of the relevant Senior Creditors as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the enforcement of the provisions hereof The holder hereof shall execute and deliver such other and further powers of attorney, assignments, proofs of claim or other instruments as may be requested by the Administrative Agent in order to accomplish the foregoing, but only with respect to such holder’s capacity as a holder hereof and not in respect of any other relationship between such holder and the Obligor.

In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, upon, any such Reorganization, any payment or distribution of the assets of the Obligor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, shall be received by the holder hereof in respect of this Affiliate Subordinated Note before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the Senior Creditors and shall forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the Administrative Agent.

The holder hereof agrees that, until the Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash, (a) if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom, or if a Reorganization shall have commenced, it will not take, demand or receive, or take any action to accelerate or collect, any payment of all or any part of the Subordinated Indebtedness and (b) it will not file, join in or facilitate any petition or proceeding seeking the involuntary bankruptcy of the Obligor.

The Senior Creditors, or any of them, may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the holder of this Affiliate Subordinated Note, without incurring any responsibility to such holder, and without impairing or releasing any of the rights of any of the Senior Creditors, or any of the obligations of such holder:

(a) change the amount or terms of or renew or extend any Senior Indebtedness or amend the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, as the can may be, in any manner or enter into or amend in any manner any other agreement relating to any Senior Indebtedness ;

(b) release anyone liable in any manner for the payment or collection of any Senior Indebtedness; and

The holder of this Affiliate Subordinated Note hereby waives notice of or proof of reliance by any Senior Creditor upon the provisions hereof and the Senior Indebtedness shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted, incurred or maintained in reliance upon the provisions hereof.

The Obligor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind whatsoever. The nonexercise by the holder of this Affiliate Subordinated Note of any of its rights hereunder in any particular instance shall not constitute a waiver thereof in that or any subsequent instance.

The subordination provisions contained herein are for the benefit of the Senior Creditors and their respective successors and assigns and may not be rescinded or cancelled or modified in anyway without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

Each of the Payee and the Obligor confirms that this Affiliate Subordinated Note constitutes the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

Neither this Affiliate Subordinated Note nor any interest therein shall be transferred or assigned without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, provided that any such transfer or assignment to a Permitted Holder shall be permitted without such consent so long as the transferee or assignee acknowledges, in a written notice to the Administrative Agent, that it is subject to the subordination provisions contained herein.

THIS AFFILIATE SUBORDINATED NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
