Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, the Applicable Reserve Requirement shall reflect any other reserves required to be maintained by such member banks with respect to (i) any category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the applicable Adjusted Eurodollar Rate or any other interest rate of a Loan is to be determined, or (ii) any category of extensions of credit or other assets which include Eurodollar Rate Loans. A Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be deemed to constitute Eurocurrency liabilities and as such shall be deemed subject to reserve requirements without benefits of credit for proration, exceptions or offsets that may be available from time to time to the applicable Lender. The rate of interest on Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be adjusted automatically on and as of the effective date of any change in the Applicable Reserve Requirement.

References herein to any Section, Appendix, Schedule or Exhibit shall be to a Section, an Appendix, a Schedule or an Exhibit, as the case may be, hereof unless otherwise specifically provided. The use herein of the word “include” or “including”, when following any general statement, term or matter, shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or matter to the specific items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters, whether or not non-limiting language (such as “without limitation” or “but not limited to” or words of similar import) is used with reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that fall within the broadest possible scope of such general statement, term or matter. The terms lease and license shall include sublease and sub-license, as applicable. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, the term “consolidated” with respect to any Person refers to such Person consolidated with its Restricted Subsidiaries, and excludes from such consolidation any Unrestricted Subsidiary as if such Unrestricted Subsidiary were not an Affiliate of such Person.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, financial ratios and tests, including the Total Net Leverage Ratio and First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and compliance with covenants (determined by reference to Consolidated EBITDA, Total Assets or an incurrence based financial test) shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 1.3; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clause (c), (d), (e) or (f) of this Section 1.3, when calculating the Total Net Leverage Ratio and First Lien Net Leverage Ratio for purposes of the definition of “Applicable Margin”, for purposes of Section 2.14(c) and Section 6.18 (other than for the purpose of determining pro forma compliance with the Financial Covenant), the events described in this Section 1.3 that occurred subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period shall not be given pro forma effect. In addition, whenever a financial ratio or test, including the Total Net Leverage Ratio and First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and compliance with covenants (determined by reference to Consolidated EBITDA, Total Assets or an incurrence based financial test) is to be calculated on a pro forma basis, the reference to “Test Period” for purposes of calculating such financial ratio or test shall be deemed to be a reference to, and shall be based on, the most recently ended Test Period for which internal financial statements of Parent are

available (as determined in good faith by Borrower). For purposes of determining pro forma compliance with the Financial Covenant at a time when the threshold for the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments and Letter of Credit/Bank Guarantee Usage set forth in Section 6.18 hereto has not been met or exceeded at such time, such determination shall be made as though the Financial Covenant is in effect at the relevant time.

(c) For purposes of calculating any financial ratio or test or compliance with any covenant determined by reference to Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets, Specified Transactions (with any incurrence or repayment of any Debt in connection therewith to be subject to clause (f) of this Section 1.3) that have been made (i) during the applicable Test Period or (ii) if applicable as described in clause (a) above, subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period (or, in the case of Total Assets, on the last day of the applicable Test Period). If since the beginning of any applicable Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into Parent, Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.3, then such financial ratio or test (or Total Assets) shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.3.

(d) Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of Parent and may include, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of “run-rate” cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies projected by Borrower in good faith to be realized as a result of specified actions taken, committed to be taken or expected to be taken (calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies had been realized on the first day of such period and as if such cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies were realized during the entirety of such period and “run rate” means the full recurring benefit for a period that is associated with any action taken, committed to be taken or expected to be taken (including any savings expected to result from the elimination of a public target’s compliance costs with public company requirements) net of the amount of actual benefits realized during such period from such actions, and any such adjustments shall be included in the initial pro forma calculations of such financial ratios or tests (and in respect of any subsequent pro forma calculations in which such Specified Transaction or cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies are given pro forma effect) and during any applicable subsequent Test Period) relating to such Specified Transaction; provided that (A) such amounts are reasonably identifiable and factually supportable in the good faith judgment of Borrower, (B) such actions are taken, committed to be taken or with respect to which substantial steps have been taken or are expected in good faith to be taken no later than twelve (12) months after the date of such Specified Transaction and (C) no amounts shall be added to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Consolidated EBITDA (or any other components thereof), whether through a pro forma adjustment or otherwise, with respect to such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the aggregate amount added to Consolidated EBITDA for any period for “run-rate” cost savings,

operating expense reductions and synergies shall not exceed 20.0% of Consolidated EBITDA for such period (before giving pro forma effect to any applicable Specified Transaction) prior to giving effect to any addition to Consolidated EBITDA pursuant to the definition thereof.

(e) In the event that Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary consummates a Specified Transaction (i) during the applicable Test Period or (ii) subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then such financial ratio or test shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such Specified Transaction to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable Test Period (except in the case of the Financial Covenant (or similar ratio), in which case such Specified Transaction will be given effect as if the same had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period).

(f) If any Debt bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Debt shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of the event for which the calculation of the applicable ratio is made had been the applicable rate for the entire period. Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by an Authorized Officer of Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with IFRS. Interest on Debt that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be determined to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary may designate.

Nothing in this Section 2.4(d) shall be deemed to relieve any Revolving Lender from its obligation to make Revolving Loans on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and Borrower shall retain any and all rights it may have against any such Lender resulting from the failure of such Lender to make such Revolving Loans under this Section 2.4(d).

(e) Lenders’ Purchase of Participations in Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit and Bank Guarantee, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, and hereby agrees to irrevocably purchase, from Issuing Bank a participation in such Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee and any drawings honored thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (with respect to the Revolving Commitments) of the maximum amount which is or at any time may become available to be drawn thereunder. In the event that Borrower shall fail for any reason to reimburse Issuing Bank as provided in Section 2.4(d), Issuing Bank shall promptly notify Revolving Facility Administrative Agent and Revolving Facility Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such honored drawing and of such Lender’s respective participation therein based on such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitments. Each Revolving Lender shall make available to Issuing Bank an amount equal to its respective participation, in Dollars and in same day funds, at the office of Issuing Bank specified in such notice, not later than 12:00 p.m. (Hong Kong time) on the first business day (under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such office of Issuing Bank is located) after the date notified by Issuing Bank. In the event that any Revolving Lender fails to make

available to Issuing Bank on such business day the amount of such Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee as provided in this Section 2.4(e), Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender at the cost of funds of Issuing Bank. Nothing in this Section 2.4(e) shall be deemed to prejudice the right of any Revolving Lender to recover from Issuing Bank any amounts made available by such Lender to Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.4(e) in the event that the payment with respect to a Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee in respect of which payment was made by such Lender constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Issuing Bank. In the event Issuing Bank shall have been reimbursed by other Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.4(e) for all or any portion of any drawing honored by Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee, such Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under this Section 2.4(e) with respect to such honored drawing such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments subsequently received by Issuing Bank from Borrower in reimbursement of such honored drawing when such payments are received. Any such distribution shall be made to a Lender at its primary address set forth below its name on Appendix B or at such other address as such Lender may request.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Issuing Bank for drawings honored under the Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees issued by it and to repay any Revolving Loans made by Lenders pursuant to Section 2.4(d) and the obligations of Lenders under Section 2.4(e) shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof under all circumstances including any of the following circumstances: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee; (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which Borrower or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), Issuing Bank, Lender or any other Person or, in the case of a Lender, against Borrower, whether in connection herewith, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee was procured); (iii) any draft or other document presented under any Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iv) payment by Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee against presentation of a draft or other document which does not substantially comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee; (v) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; (vi) any breach hereof or any other Credit Document by any party thereto; (vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; or (viii) the fact that an Event of Default or a Default shall have occurred and be continuing; provided in each case, that payment by Issuing Bank under the applicable Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of Issuing Bank under the circumstances in question as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(g) Indemnification. Without duplication of any obligation of Borrower under Section 10.2 or 10.3, in addition to amounts payable as provided herein, Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless Issuing Bank from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees,

expenses and disbursements of counsel) which Issuing Bank may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee by Issuing Bank, other than as a result of (1) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Issuing Bank as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (2) the wrongful dishonor by Issuing Bank of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee issued by it, or (ii) the failure of Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee as a result of any Governmental Act.

(h) Resignation and Removal of Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may resign as Issuing Bank upon 60 days prior written notice to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent, Lenders and Borrower. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among Borrower, Revolving Facility Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank (provided that no consent will be required if the replaced Issuing Bank has no Letters of Credit, Bank Guarantees or reimbursement obligations with respect thereto outstanding) and the successor Issuing Bank. Revolving Facility Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of such Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement or resignation shall become effective, Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank. From and after the effective date of any such replacement or resignation, (i) any successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees 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 or resignation of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto to the extent that Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees issued by it remain outstanding and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees issued by it prior to such replacement or resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or Bank Guarantees.

(i) UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by Issuing Bank and Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the UCP shall apply to each Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Issuing Bank shall not be responsible to Borrower for, and Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies against Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of Issuing Bank required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the law or any order of a jurisdiction where Issuing Bank or the beneficiary is located, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.

2.5. Pro Rata Shares; Availability of Funds.

(a) Pro Rata Shares. All Loans shall be made, and all participations purchased, by Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation

required hereby nor shall any Term Loan Commitment or any Revolving Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation required hereby.

(b) Availability of Funds. Unless the applicable Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Credit Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to such Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Credit Date, such Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to such Administrative Agent on such Credit Date and such Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount on such Credit Date. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to such Administrative Agent by such Lender, such Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to such Administrative Agent, at the cost of funds of such Administrative Agent. In the event that (i) an Administrative Agent declines to make a requested amount available to Borrower until such time as all applicable Lenders have made payment to such Administrative Agent, (ii) a Lender fails to fund to such Administrative Agent all or any portion of the Loans required to be funded by such Lender hereunder prior to the time specified in this Agreement and (iii) such Lender’s failure results in such Administrative Agent failing to make a corresponding amount available to Borrower on the Credit Date, at such Administrative Agent’s option, such Lender shall not receive interest hereunder with respect to the requested amount of such Lender’s Loans for the period commencing with the time specified in this Agreement for receipt of payment by Borrower through and including the time such Administrative Agent has paid Borrower. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon such Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, such Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to such Administrative Agent for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to such Administrative Agent, at the cost of funds of such Administrative Agent. Nothing in this Section 2.5(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Term Loan Commitments and Revolving Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

2.6. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Initial Term Loans and the Revolving Loans, if any, made on the Closing Date shall be applied on the Closing Date, together with the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and available cash, for the Refinancing and to pay fees and expenses in connection with such refinancing. Bank Guarantees shall be issued under the Letter of Credit/Bank Guarantee Sublimit on the Closing Date to support the Existing Bank Guarantees. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees made after the Closing Date shall be applied by Borrower for working capital and general corporate purposes of Parent and its Subsidiaries.

2.7. Evidence of Debt; Register; Lenders’ Books and Records; Notes.

(a) Lenders’ Evidence of Debt. Each Lender shall maintain on its internal records an account or accounts evidencing the Credit Agreement Obligations of Borrower to

such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower, absent manifest error; provided that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Revolving Commitments or Borrower’s Credit Agreement Obligations in respect of any applicable Loans; and provided further, in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern.

(b) Register. Each Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall maintain at its Principal Office a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders in respect of the applicable facility, the repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of Loans and, with respect to the Revolving Facility Administrative Agent, the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans of each Revolving Lender from time to time (each such register referred to herein as a “Register”). Each Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Term Loan Lender or Revolving Lender, as the case may be (with respect to (i) any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans and (ii) the identity of the other Lenders (but not any information with respect to such other Lenders’ Loans)), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Term Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the applicable Register the Term Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Term Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower. Each Revolving Lender and the Revolving Facility Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the applicable Register the Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Revolving Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower and each Revolving Lender, absent manifest error. Notwithstanding the two preceding sentences, the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Term Loans or Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments, as the case maybe, or Borrower’s Credit Agreement Obligations in respect of any Term Loans or Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments. Borrower hereby designates each Administrative Agent to serve as Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the applicable Register as provided in this Section 2.7, and Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent any Administrative Agent serves in such capacity, such Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees.”

(c) Notes. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to Borrower (with a copy to the Term Administrative Agent or the Revolving Facility Administrative Agent, as applicable) at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, or at any time thereafter, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 10.6) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Closing Date, promptly after Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Initial Term Loan, New Term Loan or Revolving Loan, as the case may be.

2.8. Interest on Loans.

(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Class of Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof as follows:

(i) in the case of Revolving Loans, at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and

(ii) in the case of Initial Term Loans:

(A) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or

(B) if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) The basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Term Loan, and the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, shall be selected by Borrower and notified to the applicable Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be.

(c) In connection with Eurodollar Rate Loans there shall be no more than ten (10) Interest Periods outstanding at any time. With respect to Term Loans, in the event Borrower fails to specify between a Base Rate Loan or a Eurodollar Rate Loan in the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Term Loan (if outstanding as a Eurodollar Rate Loan) will be automatically converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then-current Interest Period for such Term Loan (or if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan will remain as, or (if not then outstanding) will be made as, a Base Rate Loan). In the event Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan in the applicable Funding Notice or, the case of Term Loans, Conversion/Continuation Notice, Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month. As soon as practicable after 11:00 a.m. (London, England time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date, the applicable Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the Eurodollar Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and each Lender.

(d) Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.8(a) shall be computed (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans on the basis of a 360-day year (or, in the case of Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the “Prime Rate”, a 365-day or 366-day year, as applicable), as the case may be, and (ii) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, on the basis of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Term Loan, the last Interest Payment Date with respect to such Term Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan that is a Term Loan being converted from a Eurodollar Rate Loan that is a Term Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurodollar Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date

of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan that is a Term Loan being converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan that is a Term Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

(e) Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Loan (i) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect to interest accrued on and to each such payment date; (ii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears upon any prepayment of that Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid; and (iii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears at maturity of the Loans, including final maturity of the Loans; provided, however, with respect to any voluntary prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, accrued interest shall instead be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date.

(f) Borrower agrees to pay to Issuing Bank, with respect to drawings honored under any Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee, interest on the amount paid by Issuing Bank in respect of each such honored drawing from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date such amount is reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower at a rate equal to a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable hereunder with respect to Revolving Loans.

(g) Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.8(f) shall be computed on the basis of a 365/366-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand is made, on the date on which the related drawing under a Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee is reimbursed in full. In the event Issuing Bank shall have been reimbursed by Lenders for all or any portion of such honored drawing, Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under Section 2.4(e) with respect to such honored drawing such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any interest received by Issuing Bank in respect of that portion of such honored drawing so reimbursed by Lenders for the period from the date on which Issuing Bank was so reimbursed by Lenders to but excluding the date on which such portion of such honored drawing is reimbursed by Borrower.

(h) If a Tax Deduction is required by Swiss law to be made by a Swiss Guarantor in respect of any interest payable by it under this Agreement and should clause (b) of Section 2.20 be unenforceable for any reason the applicable interest rate in relation to that interest payment shall be (i) the interest rate which would have applied to that interest payment (as provided for in this Section 2.8) in the absence of this clause (h) divided by (ii) 1 minus the rate at which the relevant Tax Deduction is required to be made (where the rate at which the relevant Tax Deduction is required to be made is for this purpose expressed as a fraction of 1 rather than as a percentage) and (x) that the Swiss Guarantor shall be obliged to pay the relevant interest at the adjusted rate in accordance with this clause (h) and (y) all references to a rate of interest in this Section 2.8 shall be construed accordingly.

2.9. Conversion/Continuation.

(a) Subject to Section 2.18 and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, Borrower shall have the option with respect to Term Loans:

(i) to convert at any time all or any part of any Term Loan equal to $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount from one Type of Loan to another Type of Loan; provided a Eurodollar Rate Loan may only be converted on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan unless Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 2.18 in connection with any such conversion; or

(ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Eurodollar Rate Loan that is a Term Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount as a Eurodollar Rate Loan.

(b) Subject to Section 3.2, Borrower shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to Term Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion of a Term Loan to a Base Rate Loan) and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion of a Term Loan to, or a continuation of a Term Loan that is, a Eurodollar Rate Loan). Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith. If on any day a Term Loan is outstanding with respect to which a Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice has not been delivered to Term Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day such Term Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan.

2.10. Default Interest.

(a) If any principal of or interest on any Term Loan or any fee or other amount payable to the Term Loan Lenders or in respect of the Term Loans hereunder is not paid when and as due (whether at maturity, by reason of acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under Bankruptcy Laws) payable on demand at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Term Loans (or, in the case of any such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans); provided in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans that are Term Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon become Base Rate Loans and shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans.

(b) If any principal of or interest on any Revolving Loan or any fee or other amount payable to the Revolving Lenders or in respect of the Revolving Loans hereunder is not

paid when and as due (whether at maturity, by reason of acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under Bankruptcy Laws) payable on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate at which it would have accrued if such amount had, during the period of non—payment, constituted a Revolving Loan for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by Revolving Facility Administrative Agent (acting reasonably).

(c) Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.10 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of either Administrative Agent or any Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest rate determined pursuant to this Section 2.10 with respect to any Polish Guarantor is subject to mandatory limitations imposed by Article 359 of the Polish Act on the Civil Code of 23 April 1964 (Journal of Laws No. 16, item 93, as amended).

2.11. Fees.

(a) Borrower agrees to pay to Lenders having Revolving Exposure:

(i) commitment fees equal to (1) the average of the daily difference between (A) the Revolving Commitments and (B) the aggregate principal amount of (x) all outstanding Revolving Loans plus (y) the Letter of Credit/Bank Guarantee Usage, times (2) the Applicable Revolving Commitment Fee Percentage; and

(ii) letter of credit fees equal to (1) the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans, times (2) the average aggregate daily maximum amount available to be drawn under all such Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees (regardless of whether any conditions for drawing could then be met and determined as of the close of business on any date of determination).

All fees referred to in this Section 2.11(a) shall be paid to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent at its Principal Office and upon receipt, Revolving Facility Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof.

(b) Borrower agrees to pay directly to Issuing Bank, for its own account, such documentary and processing charges for any issuance, amendment, transfer or payment of a Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee as are in accordance with Issuing Bank’s standard schedule for such charges and as in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or payment, as the case may be.

(c) All fees referred to in Section 2.11(a) and 2.11(b) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of February, May, August and November of each year during the Revolving Commitment Period, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date.

(d) Borrower agrees to pay on the Closing Date to each Term Loan Lender party to this Agreement as a Lender on the Closing Date, as fee compensation for the funding of

such Lender’s Term Loan, a closing fee in an amount equal to 0.50% of the stated principal amount of such Lender’s Term Loan, payable to such Term Loan Lender from the proceeds of its Term Loan as and when funded on the Closing Date. Such closing fee will be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Closing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.

(e) In addition to any of the foregoing fees, Borrower agrees to pay to Agents such other fees in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon.

2.12. Scheduled Payments. The principal amounts of the Initial Term Loans shall be repaid in consecutive quarterly installments commencing August 31, 2014, each equal to 0.25% of the original principal amount of the Initial Term Loans, and at final maturity (each such payment, an “Installment”); provided in the event any New Term Loans are made, such New Term Loans shall be repaid on each Interest Payment Date occurring on or after the applicable Increased Amount Date in the manner specified in the Joinder Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) such Installments shall be reduced in connection with any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans, as the case may be, in accordance with Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15, as applicable; and (y) the Term Loans, together with all other amounts owed hereunder with respect thereto, shall, in any event, be paid in full no later than the Maturity Date applicable to such Term Loans.

2.13. Voluntary Prepayments/Commitment Reductions.

(a) Voluntary Prepayments.

(i) Any time and from time to time:

(A) with respect to Base Rate Loans, Borrower may prepay any such Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part, other than with respect to any prepayment made pursuant to Section 8.2, in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; and

(B) with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, Borrower may prepay any such Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part, other than with respect to any prepayment made pursuant to Section 8.2, in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount.

(ii) All such prepayments shall be made:

(A) upon not less than one Business Day’s prior written or telephonic notice in the case of Base Rate Loans; and

(B) upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans.

in each case given by Borrower to the applicable Administrative Agent by, in the case of Term Loans, 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) and, in the case of Revolving Loans, 12:00 p.m. (Hong Kong time), in each case, on the date required and, if given by telephone, promptly confirmed by delivery of written notice thereof to such Administrative Agent (and such Administrative Agent will promptly transmit a copy of the notice for Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as the case may be, by telefacsimile or telephone to each Lender). Upon the giving of any such notice, the principal amount of the Loans specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein (provided, that any such prepayment may be conditioned upon the closing of a transaction or refinancing, in which case, upon the failure of such transaction or refinancing to close, such notice of prepayment may be withdrawn). Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 2.15(a).

(b) Voluntary Commitment Reductions.

(i) Borrower may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice from Borrower promptly confirmed by delivery of written notice thereof to the Revolving Facility Administrative Agent (a copy of which written notice the Revolving Facility Administrative Agent will promptly transmit by telefacsimile or telephone to each applicable Lender), at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Revolving Commitments in an amount up to the amount by which the Revolving Commitments exceed the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments at the time of such proposed termination or reduction; provided any such partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount.

(ii) Borrower’s notice to the Revolving Facility Administrative Agent shall designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be effective on the date specified in Borrower’s notice and shall reduce the Revolving Commitment of each Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share thereof (provided, that any such termination or reduction may be conditioned upon the closing of a transaction or refinancing, in which case upon the failure of such transaction or refinancing to close, such notice of termination or reduction may be cancelled).

(c) Term Loan Call Protection. In the event that all or any portion of the Term Loans is (i) repriced or effectively refinanced through any waiver, consent or amendment the primary purpose of which is directed at, or the result of which would be, the lowering of the effective interest cost or the Weighted Average Yield (assuming a four-year life to maturity for calculation of interest rates for closing fees or original issue discount) of the Term Loans or (ii) repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced through the incurrence of any debt financing the primary purpose of which is to decrease the effective interest cost or Weighted Average Yield (assuming a four-year life to maturity for calculation of interest rates for closing fees or original issue discount) that is less than the effective interest cost or Weighted Average Yield of the Term Loans (or portion thereof) so repaid, prepaid, refinanced, replaced or repriced, in each case of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), other than in connection with a change of control (including a

Change of Control) or a Transformative Acquisition (a “Repricing Transaction”), occurring on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date (and including, for avoidance of doubt, any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.14(c) that constitutes a Repricing Transaction), such repayment, prepayment, refinancing, replacement or repricing will be made at 101.0% of the principal amount so repaid, prepaid, refinanced, replaced or repriced. If all or any portion of the Term Loans held by any Lender is repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date pursuant to Section 2.23 as a result of, or in connection with, such Lender being a Non-Consenting Lender with respect to any waiver, consent or amendment referred to in clause (i) above (or otherwise in connection with a Repricing Transaction), such repayment, prepayment, refinancing or replacement will be made at 101.0% of the principal amount so repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced.

2.14. Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) Asset Sales. No later than the fifth Business Day following the date of receipt by any member of the Restricted Group of any Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale, Borrower shall prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 2.15(b) in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset Sale; provided that (i) notwithstanding the forgoing, Borrower shall only be required to prepay the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.14(a) to the extent the Net Cash Proceeds received from Asset Sales exceeds $2,500,000 in any Fiscal Year and (ii) Borrower shall have the option, directly or through any member of the Restricted Group, to invest Net Cash Proceeds within 365 days of receipt thereof (or an additional 365 days if any member of the Restricted Group enters into a legally binding commitment to invest such Net Cash Proceeds within 365 days of receipt thereof) in assets useful in the business of the Restricted Group.

(b) Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds. No later than the fifth Business Day following the date of receipt by any member of the Restricted Group, or either Collateral Agent as loss payee, of any Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, Borrower shall prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 2.15(b) in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds; provided that (i) notwithstanding the forgoing, Borrower shall only be required to prepay the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.14(b) to the extent the Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds received by any member of the Restricted Group exceeds $2,500,000 in any Fiscal Year and (ii) Borrower shall have the option, directly or through any member of the Restricted Group, to invest such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds within 365 days of receipt thereof (or an additional 365 days if any member of the Restricted Group enters into a legally binding commitment to invest such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds within 365 days of receipt thereof) in long term productive assets of the general type used in the business of the Restricted Group, which investment may include the repair, restoration or replacement of the applicable assets thereof.

(c) Issuance of Debt. On the date of receipt by any member of the Restricted Group of any cash proceeds from the incurrence of any Debt of any member of the Restricted Group (including any Debt incurred pursuant to a Permitted Refinancing incurred pursuant to Section 6.1(b) but excluding other Debt permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b)), Borrower shall prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 2.15(b) in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such proceeds, net of taxes, underwriting discounts and commissions and other

reasonable costs and expenses associated therewith, including reasonable legal fees and expenses.

(d) Consolidated Excess Cash Flow. In the event that there shall be Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for any Fiscal Year (commencing with the Fiscal Year ending August 31, 2015), Borrower shall, no later than 120 days after the end of such Fiscal Year, prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 2.15(b) in an aggregate amount equal to the Applicable ECF Percentage of such Consolidated Excess Cash Flow minus voluntary repayments of the Loans (including, for the avoidance of doubt, repurchases of Term Loans pursuant to Section 10.6(i) (based on the actual cash purchase price and not the par value of Term Loans so purchased)), any Debt Incurred pursuant to Section 6.1(b)(xxiii) or (xxiv) and any Refinancing Indebtedness the net proceeds of which are used to replace or refinance Loans, in each case, to the extent made with Internally Generated Cash (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, repayments of Loans made with the cash proceeds of any Refinancing Indebtedness).

(e) Revolving Loans.

(i) Borrower shall from time to time prepay the Revolving Loans to the extent necessary so that the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments shall not at any time exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect.

(ii) Last Day of Interest Period.

(A) Borrower shall repay each Revolving Loan on the last day of its Interest Period.

(B) Notwithstanding Borrower’s obligation under clause (A) above, if (x) one or more new Revolving Loans are to be made available to Borrower (I) on the same day that a maturity Revolving Loan is due to be repaid by Borrower and (II) in whole or in part for the purpose of refinancing the maturing Revolving Loan; and (y) each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such maturing Revolving Loan(s) is the same as such Lender’s Pro Rata Share in such new Revolving Loans, then the aggregate amount of the new Revolving Loans shall, unless Borrower notifies Revolving Facility Administrative Agent to the contrary in the relevant Funding Notice, be treated as if applied in or towards repayment of the maturing Revolving Facility so that:

(1) if the amount of maturing Revolving Loans exceeds the aggregate amount of the new Revolving Loans, (X) Borrower will only be required to repay an amount equal to such excess; and (Y) each Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share in the new Revolving Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by Borrower in or towards repayment of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share in the maturity Revolving Loans and such Lender will not be required to make funds available to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(b)(iv) in respect of its Pro Rata Share of the new Revolving Loans; and

(2) if the amount of maturing Revolving Loans is equal to or less than the aggregate amount of new Revolving Loans, (X) Borrower will not be required to repay such maturing Revolving Loans; and (Y) each Revolving Lender will be required to make funds available to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(b)(iv) in respect of its Pro Rata Share of new Revolving Loans only to the extent that its Pro Rata Share in new Revolving Loans exceeds such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share in the maturing Revolving Loans and the remainder of such Revolving Lender’s participation in the new Revolving Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by Borrower in or toward repayment of such Lender’s participation the maturing Revolving Loans.

(f) Prepayment Certificate. Concurrently with any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Sections 2.14(a) through 2.14(e), Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agents a certificate of an Authorized Officer demonstrating the calculation of the amount of the applicable net proceeds or Consolidated Excess Cash Flow, as the case may be. In the event that Borrower shall subsequently determine that the actual amount received exceeded the amount set forth in such certificate, Borrower shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to such excess, and Borrower shall concurrently therewith deliver to Administrative Agents a certificate of an Authorized Officer demonstrating the derivation of such excess.

(g) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.14 or Section 2.15, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale by a Foreign Subsidiary of Parent, any Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds attributable to property of a Foreign Subsidiary of Parent or Consolidated Excess Cash Flow attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries of Parent are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Consolidated Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.14 but may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (Borrower hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and (ii) to the extent that Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Consolidated Excess Cash Flow attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries would have material adverse tax consequences with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Consolidated Excess Cash Flow, such Net Cash Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Consolidated Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.14 but may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary; provided that in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), (x) such nonpayment prior to the time such amounts must be repatriated shall not constitute an Event of Default, and such amounts shall be available (A) to repay local foreign indebtedness, if any, and (B) for working capital purposes of Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case, subject to the prepayment provisions in this Section 2.14(g) in the event such amounts are

repatriated, and (y) if within one year following the date on which the respective prepayment would otherwise have been required such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Consolidated Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, or the repatriation of such amounts will not have material adverse tax consequences, then repatriation will be promptly effected and an amount equal to the amount of Net Cash Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Consolidated Excess Cash Flow that could be repatriated will be promptly (and in any event not later than five (5) Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.14 to the extent provided herein.

2.15. Application of Prepayments/Reductions.

(a) Application of Voluntary Prepayments by Type of Loans. Any prepayment of any Loan pursuant to Section 2.13(a) shall be applied as specified by Borrower in the applicable notice of prepayment; provided in the event Borrower fails to specify the Loans to which any such prepayment shall be applied, such prepayment shall be applied as follows:

first, to repay outstanding Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof; and

second, to prepay the Term Loans on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof); and further applied in direct order of maturity.

(b) Application of Mandatory Prepayments by Type of Loans. All prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.13(d) shall be applied solely to the outstanding Initial Term Loans (and any New Term Loans or Extended Term Loans to the extent provided for in the applicable Joinder Agreement or Extension Amendment; provided that the Initial Term Loans receive not less than the pro rata portion of such prepayment unless otherwise agreed). Subject to the preceding sentence, any amount required to be paid pursuant to Sections 2.14(a) through 2.14(e) shall be applied as follows:

first, to prepay Term Loans on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof) and further applied on a pro rata basis to the remaining scheduled Installments of principal of the Term Loans; provided that if at the time any amount is required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.14(a) or (b), Borrower is required to offer to repurchase Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Debt with any Net Cash Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds (such Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt required to be offered to be so repurchased, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then Borrower may apply such Net Cash Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, as applicable, on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time; provided that the portion of such cash proceeds allocated to Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such cash proceeds required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such cash proceeds shall be allocated to the Term Loans in accordance

with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans and to the repurchase of Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to Section 2.14(a) or (b), as applicable, shall be reduced accordingly; provided further that to the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such Debt purchased, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof;

second, to prepay the Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof;

third, to prepay outstanding reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees; and

fourth, to Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees.

(c) Waivable Mandatory Prepayment. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, so long as any Term Loans are outstanding, in the event Borrower is required to make any mandatory prepayment (a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Term Loans, not less than five Business Days prior to the date (the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which Borrower is required to make such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, Borrower shall notify Term Administrative Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and Term Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Term Loan of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and such Lender’s option to refuse such amount. Each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to Borrower and Term Administrative Agent of its election to do so on or before the third Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender which does not notify Borrower and Term Administrative Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the third Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option). On the Required Prepayment Date, Borrower shall pay to Term Administrative Agent the amount of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, which amount shall be applied in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment payable to those Lenders that have elected not to exercise such option, to prepay the Term Loans of such Lenders (which prepayment shall be applied to the scheduled Installments of principal of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.15(b)). To the extent any Lender has elected to refuse its Pro Rata Share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, such amount shall be retained by Borrower (such amount, the “Borrower Retained Prepayment Amount”).

(d) Application of Prepayments of Loans to Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans. Considering each Class of Loans being prepaid separately, any prepayment thereof shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18(c).

2.16. General Provisions Regarding Payments.

(a) All payments by Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Credit Agreement Obligations shall be made in Dollars in same day funds, without defense, recoupment, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to the applicable Administrative Agent not later than, in the case of Term Loans, 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) and in the case of Revolving Loans, 12:00 p.m. (Hong Kong time), in each case, on the date due at the Principal Office of such Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders; for purposes of computing interest and fees, funds received by such Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by Borrower on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan (other than voluntary prepayments of Revolving Loans) shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments (and, in any event, any payments in respect of any Loan on a date when interest is due and payable with respect to such Loan) shall be applied to the payment of interest then due and payable before application to principal.

(c) The applicable Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate in writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by such Administrative Agent.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions hereof, if any Conversion/ Continuation Notice is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any Eurodollar Rate Loans, Term Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(e) Subject to the provisos set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” as they may apply to Revolving Loans, whenever any payment to be made hereunder with respect to any Loan shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to Revolving Loans only, such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder or of the Revolving Commitment fees hereunder.

(f) Each Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of Borrower hereunder that is not made in same day funds prior to, in the case of Term Loans, 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) and, in the case of Revolving Loans, 12:00 p.m. (Hong Kong time), in each case, to be a non-conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by such Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day. The applicable Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to Borrower and each applicable Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment is non-conforming. Any non-conforming payment may constitute or become a Default or Event of Default in accordance with the terms of Section 8.1(a). Interest shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the rate determined

pursuant to Section 2.10 from the date such amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full.

(g) If an Enforcement Event shall have occurred and not otherwise been waived, all proceeds received by Agents pursuant to any sale of, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral, or all payments or proceeds received by Agents in respect of any of the Credit Agreement Obligations, shall be applied as follows (subject to the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, if in effect):

(i) first, to payment of that portion of the Credit Agreement Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to each Agent and each Issuing Bank in its capacity as such;

(ii) second, to payment of that portion of the Credit Agreement Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Secured Parties, ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this clause (ii) payable to them;

(iii) third, to payment of that portion of the Credit Agreement Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest (including, but not limited to, post-petition interest), ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (iii) payable to them;

(iv) fourth, to payment of that portion of the Credit Agreement Obligations constituting unpaid principal, unreimbursed drawings under Letters of Credit or Bank Guarantees honored by Issuing Bank and not theretofore reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower or face amounts of the Loans, and Hedge Termination Value under Hedge Agreements and for the account of the Issuing Bank, to Cash Collateralize that portion of Credit Agreement Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit or Bank Guarantees, ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (iv) held by them;

(v) fifth, to the payment of all other Credit Agreement Obligations of the Credit Parties that are due and payable to Agents and the other Secured Parties on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Credit Agreement Obligations owing to Agents and the other Secured Parties on such date; and

(vi) sixth, the balance, if any, after all of the Credit Agreement Obligations have been paid in full, to Borrower or as otherwise required by law.

Subject to Section 2.4(a)(vi) and the last sentence of Section 2.4(a), amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause (iv) above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Credit Agreement Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above and, if no Credit Agreement Obligations remain outstanding, to Borrower.

(h) Clawback.

(i) Where a sum is to be paid to either Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents for another Person, such Administrative Agent is not obligated to pay such sum to such other Person (or to enter into or perform any related exchange contract) until it has been able to establish to its satisfaction that it has actually received such sum.

(ii) If such Administrative Agent pays an amount to another Person and it proves to be the case that such Administrative Agent had not actually received such amount, then such Person to whom such amount (or the proceeds of any related exchange contract) was paid by such Administrative Agent shall on demand refund the same to such Administrative Agent together with interest on such amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by such Administrative Agent, calculated by such Administrative Agent to reflect its cost of funds.

2.17. Ratable Sharing. Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as Cash Collateral under any Bankruptcy Law, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, amounts payable in respect of Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify the applicable Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, consolidation, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder. The provisions of this Section 2.17 shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (ii) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or other Credit Agreement Obligations owed to it.

2.18. Making or Maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(a) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that the applicable Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of “Adjusted Eurodollar Rate”, or, in the case of Eurodollar Loans that are Revolving Loans, only one Reference Bank supplies a rate to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent to determine such rate for the applicable Interest Period (i) in the case of Term Loans, Term Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and each Term Loan Lender of such determination, whereupon (A) no Term Loans may be made as, or converted to, Eurodollar Rate Loans until such time as Term Administrative Agent notifies Borrower and Term Loan Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and (B) any Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by Borrower with respect to the Term Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower and (ii) in the case of Revolving Loans, Revolving Facility Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Revolving Lenders and Borrower thereof and the interest rate applicable to any such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such affected Revolving Loans shall be equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin and the percentage rate per annum notified to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent by such Revolving Lender, as soon as practicable and in any event not later than five Business Days before interest is due to be paid in respect of such Interest Period (or such later date as may be acceptable to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent), as the cost to such Revolving Lender of funding its participation in such Revolving Loan from whatever source(s) it may reasonably select.

(b) Illegality or Impracticability of Eurodollar Rate Loans. In the event that on any date (i) any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that the making, maintaining, converting to or continuation of its Eurodollar Rate Loans has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or (ii) the applicable Administrative Agent is advised by the Requisite Term Loan Lenders or Requisite Revolving Lenders, as the case may be (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), that the making, maintaining, converting to or continuation of its Eurodollar Rate Loans has become impracticable, as a result of contingencies occurring after the date hereof which materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the position of the Lenders in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lenders (or in the case of the preceding clause (i), such Lender) shall be an “Affected Lender” and such Affected Lender shall on that day give notice (by e-mail or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and the applicable Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice such Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). In the case of Term Loans, if Term Administrative Agent receives a notice from (x) any Term Loan Lender pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence or (y) Term Loan Lenders constituting Requisite Term Loan Lenders pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, then (1) the obligation of the Term Loan Lenders (or, in the case of any notice pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such Term Loan Lender) to make Term Loans as, or to convert Term Loans to, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall

be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by each Affected Lender, (2) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Term Loan Lenders (or in the case of any notice pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such Term Loan Lender) shall make such Term Loan as (or continue such Term Loan as or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (3) the Term Loan Lenders’ (or in the case of any notice pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such Term Loan Lender’s) obligations to maintain their respective outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (4) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination. In the case of Revolving Loans, if Revolving Facility Administrative Agent receives a notice from (x) any Revolving Lender pursuant to clause (i) of the second preceding sentence or (y) Revolving Lenders constituting Requisite Revolving Lenders pursuant to clause (ii) of the second preceding sentence, Revolving Facility Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Revolving Lenders and Borrower thereof and the interest rate applicable to any such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such affected Revolving Loans shall be equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin and the percentage rate per annum notified to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent by such Revolving Lender, as soon as practicable and in any event not later than five Business Days before interest is due to be paid in respect of such Interest Period (or such later date as may be acceptable to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent), as the cost to such Revolving Lender of funding its participation in such Revolving Loan from whatever source(s) it may reasonably select. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 2.18(c), to rescind such Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice as to all Lenders by giving written or telephonic notice (promptly confirmed by delivery of written notice thereof) to the applicable Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission such Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender).

(c) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid or payable by such Lender to Lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurodollar Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Funding Notice or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any conversion of, any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan; or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Borrower. With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation under this Section 2.18, Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender for any amount

incurred more than 180 calendar days prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim.

(d) Booking of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender.

(e) Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant Eurodollar Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of “Adjusted Eurodollar Rate” in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, each Lender may fund each of its Eurodollar Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19.

2.19. Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a) Compensation For Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.20 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender (which term shall include Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.19(a)) shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (A) any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (regardless of whether the underlying law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order was issued or enacted prior to the date hereof), including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order but excluding solely proposals thereof, or any determination of a court or Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or (B) any guideline, request or directive by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) or any implementation rules or interpretations of previously issued guidelines, requests or directives, in each case that is issued or made after the date hereof (clauses (A) and (B), collectively, a “Change in Law”): (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other than any Indemnified Taxes or Excluded Taxes) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of “Adjusted Eurodollar Rate”); or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or such Lender’s obligations hereunder or

the London interbank market; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or in a lump sum or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to the applicable Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.19(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

(b) Capital Adequacy Adjustment. In the event that any Lender (which term shall include Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.19(b)) shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (A) the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or (B) compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) or any company controlling such Lender with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, in each case after the date hereof, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any company controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans or Revolving Commitments, Letters of Credit or Bank Guarantees, or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Bank Guarantees to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling company could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling company with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five Business Days after receipt by Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling company on an after-tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to the applicable Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.19(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error. For the avoidance of doubt, subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2.19 shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning liquidity and capital adequacy issued by any United States regulatory authority (i) under or in connection with the implementation of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and (ii) in connection with the implementation of the recommendations of the Bank for International Settlements or the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority), regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented.

2.20. Taxes; Withholding, Etc.

(a) Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by or on behalf of any Credit Party hereunder and under the other Credit Documents shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority.

(b) Withholding of Taxes. If any Withholding Agent is (in such Withholding Agent’s reasonable good faith discretion) required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any Tax from any sum paid or payable by any Credit Party to either Administrative Agent or any Lender (which term shall include Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.20(b)) under any of the Credit Documents: (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay, or cause to be paid, any such Tax to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law; (ii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, unless otherwise provided on this Section 2.20, the sum payable by such Credit Party in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment of such Indemnified Tax is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment of such Indemnified Tax, such Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment of such Indemnified Tax been required or made; and (iii) within thirty (30) days after the due date of payment of any Tax which is required by clause (i) above to be paid, the relevant Withholding Agent shall deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority.

(c) Other Taxes. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.20(b), Borrower shall timely pay all Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authorities in accordance with applicable law. Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agents official receipts or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agents in respect of any Other Taxes payable hereunder promptly after payment of such Other Taxes.

(d) Borrower shall indemnify each Administrative Agent and any Lender for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes for which additional amounts are required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.20(b) arising in connection with payments made under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and Other Taxes (including any such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.20) paid by either Administrative Agent or Lender or any of their respective Affiliates and any 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. Such Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, shall, at Borrower’s request, provide the Borrower with a written statement thereof setting forth the basis and calculation of such amounts (including any proposed indemnifiable expenses), which written statement shall be conclusive absent manifest error with respect to any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes and shall make commercially reasonable efforts to provide other documentation or cooperation reasonably necessary for such Borrower to contest in good faith the imposition of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes. Such payment shall be due within thirty (30) days of such Credit Party’s receipt of such certificate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Borrower shall not be required to indemnify the applicable Administrative Agent or Lender for

any penalties or interest resulting from willful misconduct or gross negligence of such applicable Administrative Agent or Lender.

(e) Status of Recipients.

(i) Any Recipient that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the applicable Credit Party and the applicable Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the applicable Credit Party or the applicable Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the applicable Credit Party or the applicable Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Recipient, if reasonably requested by the applicable Credit Party or the applicable Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the applicable Credit Party or the Administrative Agent as will enable the applicable Credit Party or the applicable Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Recipient is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.20(e)(ii)) shall not be required if in the Recipient’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Recipient to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Recipient.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing (A) each Recipient that is not a U.S. Person (a “Non-U.S. Recipient”) shall, to the extent such Recipient is legally able to do so, deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent for transmission to Borrower, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Recipient listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Recipient (in the case of each other Recipient), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Borrower or such Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (i) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8EXP and/or W-8IMY (or, in each case, any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Recipient, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Borrower to establish that such Recipient is not subject to (or is subject to a reduced rate of) deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax (including backup withholding) with respect to any payments to such Recipient of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Credit Documents, or (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Recipient that is a Lender receiving payments of interest, if such Lender is not a “bank” or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, a Certificate re Non-Bank Status together with two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Borrower to establish that such Lender is not subject to (or is subject to a reduced rate of) deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such

Lender of interest payable under any of the Credit Documents, and (B) each Recipient that is a U.S. Person (a “U.S. Recipient”) and is not an exempt recipient within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6049-4(c) shall deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent and Borrower on or prior to the Closing Date (or, if later, on or prior to the date on which such Recipient becomes a party to this Agreement) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Recipient, certifying that such U.S. Recipient is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax, or otherwise prove that it is entitled to such an exemption. Each Recipient required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to this Section 2.20(e) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Recipient of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Recipient shall promptly deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent for transmission to Borrower two new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8EXP, W-8IMY and/or W-9 (or, in each case, any successor form), or a Certificate re Non-Bank Status and two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form), as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Recipient, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Borrower to confirm or establish that such Recipient is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Recipient under the Credit Documents, or notify such Administrative Agent and Borrower of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.

(iii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in relation to a Guarantor resident for tax purposes in Spain (for purposes of this clause 2.20(e)(iii), a “Spanish Guarantor”), before the first day upon which such Spanish Guarantor is to make a payment (or thereafter as required by the applicable tax laws and regulations of Spain), any Recipient that is not resident for tax purposes in Spain shall deliver to such Spanish Guarantor, at such Spanish Guarantor’s timely request and through Term Administrative Agent (i) a tax residence certificate duly issued by the tax authorities of such Recipient’s jurisdiction of tax residence accrediting that such Recipient is resident for tax purposes therein or (ii) if such Recipient is resident in a jurisdiction that has entered into a double tax treaty with Spain, a tax residence certificate duly issued by the tax authorities of its jurisdiction of residence accrediting that such Lender is a resident for tax purposes therein for the purposes of the applicable double tax treaty. The tax residence certificates referred to in (i) and (ii) above in this clause 2.20(e)(iii) must have an issue date not earlier than one year preceding the date on which a Spanish Guarantor should make a payment. If additional payments are required to be made by a Spanish Guarantor, at a time where tax residence certificates previously supplied by a Recipient pursuant to (i) and (ii) above of this clause 2.20(e)(iii), are deemed to have expired from a Spanish tax perspective, such Spanish Guarantor may request from such Recipients the supply of renewed tax residence certificates with the same content as stated above.

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

(g) Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.20 (including additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.20 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This clause (g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.20 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agents or any assignment of rights, by or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document.

2.21. Obligation to Mitigate. Each Lender (which term shall include Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.21) agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans, Letters of Credit or Bank Guarantees, as the case may be, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions, including any Affected Loans, through another office of such Lender, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem

reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Revolving Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or Bank Guarantees through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Revolving Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or Bank Guarantees or the interests of such Lender; provided such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.21 unless Borrower agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.21 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to Borrower (with a copy to the applicable Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

2.22. Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by either Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 or otherwise) or received by either Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.4 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the applicable Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to such Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Issuing Bank; third, to Cash Collateralize Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.22(d); fourth, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by such Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by such Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a Deposit Account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize Issuing Bank’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.22(d); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or Issuing Bank as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or Issuing Bank against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under

this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit or Bank Guarantees in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit or Bank Guarantees were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 were satisfied and waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the applicable Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iii). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.22(a)(i) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(ii) Certain Fees.

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee pursuant to Section 2.11(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender); provided such Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive fees pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(ii) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.22(d).

(B) With respect to any fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) above, Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iii) below, (y) pay to Issuing Bank the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iii) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation, and (y) such reallocation does not cause the

aggregate Revolving Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(iv) Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iii) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, Cash Collateralize Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.22(d).

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower, the applicable Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, such Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as such Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the applicable Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iii)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) New Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

(d) Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of Revolving Facility Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank (with a copy to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent) Borrower shall Cash Collateralize Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iii) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.

(i) Grant of Security Interest. Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Issuing Bank, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees, to be applied pursuant to clause (ii) below. If at any time Revolving Facility Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Revolving

Facility Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank as herein provided or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, Borrower will, promptly upon demand by Revolving Facility Administrative Agent, pay or provide to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(ii) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.22 in respect of Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(iii) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.22 following (A) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender) or (B) the determination by Revolving Facility Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.22, the Person providing Cash Collateral and Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations; provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Credit Documents.

2.23. Removal or Replacement of a Lender. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a)(i) any Lender (an “Increased-Cost Lender”) shall give notice to Borrower that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20, (ii) the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect, and (iii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days after Borrower’s request for such withdrawal; (b)(i) any Lender shall become and continues to be a Defaulting Lender, and (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall fail to cure the default pursuant to Section 2.22(b) within five Business Days after Borrower’s request that it cure such default; or (c) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.5(b), the consent of Requisite Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each such Increased-Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), Borrower may, by giving written notice to the applicable Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loans and its Revolving Commitments, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 and Borrower shall pay the fees, if any, payable thereunder in connection with any

such assignment from an Increased-Cost Lender, a Non-Consenting Lender or a Defaulting Lender; provided (1) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender, (B) an amount equal to all unreimbursed drawings that have been funded by such Terminated Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.11; (2) on the date of such assignment, Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.18(c), 2.19 or 2.20 (and in the case of a Non-Consenting Lender in connection with a Repricing Transaction, Section 2.13(c)) or otherwise as if it were a prepayment; and (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender; provided Borrower may not make such election with respect to any Terminated Lender that is also an Issuing Bank unless, prior to the effectiveness of such election, Borrower shall have caused each outstanding Letter of Credit and Bank Guarantee issued thereby to be cancelled. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Revolving Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender. Each Lender agrees that if Borrower exercises its option hereunder to cause an assignment by such Lender as a Non-Consenting Lender or Terminated Lender, such Lender shall, promptly after receipt of written notice of such election, execute and deliver all documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment in accordance with Section 10.6. In the event that a Lender does not comply with the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence within one Business Day after receipt of such notice, each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the applicable Administrative Agent to execute and deliver such documentation as may be required to give effect to an assignment in accordance with Section 10.6 on behalf of a Non-Consenting Lender or Terminated Lender and any such documentation so executed by such Administrative Agent shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 10.6. Any removal of HBAP or any of its successors as a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.23 shall also constitute the removal of HBAP or its successors as Revolving Facility Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.7.

2.24. Incremental Facilities. Borrower may (a) by written notice from Borrower to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent, elect to request prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, an increase to the existing Revolving Commitments (any such increase, the “New Revolving Loan Commitments”) and/or (b) by written notice from Borrower to and the Term Administrative Agent elect to request prior to the Maturity Date, the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “New Term Loan Commitments”), in an aggregate principal amount of (i) the New Term Loan Commitments and the New Revolving Loan Commitments plus (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Debt Incurred pursuant to Sections 6.1(b)(xxiii) and (xxiv) not in excess of (A) $50,000,000 in the aggregate pursuant to this clause (A) prior to date of determination plus (B) at Borrower’s option, an unlimited amount of New Term Loan Commitments and/or the New Revolving Loan Commitments so long as the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is no more than 4.25:1.00 as of the last day of the Fiscal Quarter most recently ended for which a Compliance Certificate required under Section 5.1(c) has been delivered, after giving effect to any such incurrence on a Pro Forma Basis (and excluding the

100

proceeds of any New Revolving Loans and/or New Term Loans from Unrestricted Cash in clause (b) of the definition of Consolidated Total Debt in calculating the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio for purposes of this Section 2.24 and, in the case of unsecured or junior lien Debt Incurred pursuant to Section 6.1(b)(xxiii), calculated assuming such debt is Consolidated First Lien Secured Debt), and, in each case, with respect to any New Revolving Loan Commitment, assuming a borrowing of the maximum amount of Loans available thereunder (such aggregate amount, the “Incremental Amount”). Each New Term Loan Commitment or New Revolving Loan Commitment shall be in a principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by the applicable Administrative Agent or such lesser amount that shall constitute the difference between $5,000,000 and all such New Revolving Loan Commitments and New Term Loan Commitments obtained prior to such date), and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount. Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which Borrower proposes that the New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Term Administrative Agent or such shorter period of time as consented to by the Term Administrative Agent. Borrower may invite any Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, a “New Revolving Loan Lender” or “New Term Loan Lender”, as applicable) to provide a New Revolving Loan Commitment or New Term Loan Commitment, as applicable; provided that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Revolving Loan Commitment or a New Term Loan Commitment. Such New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that (1) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable; provided that in the case of New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments the purpose of which is to finance a Permitted Acquisition or other similar Investment, no Event of Default pursuant to clauses (a), (f) or (g) of Section 8.1 shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable; (2) both before and after giving effect to the making of any Series of New Term Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2(a)(iii) shall be satisfied; provided that in the case of New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments the purpose of which is to finance a Permitted Acquisition or other similar Investment, the representations and warranties required under this clause (2) shall be limited only to representations set forth in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.6, 4.7, 4.28, 4.29 and 4.30) if so agreed to by the New Revolving Loan Lenders or New Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, providing such New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loans Commitments, as applicable; (3) the New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by Borrower, the New Revolving Loan Lender or New Term Loan Lender, as applicable, and applicable Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and each New Revolving Loan Lender and New Term Loan Lender shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.20(e); (4) Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.18(c) in connection with the New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable; and (5) Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the applicable

101

Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction. Any New Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated a separate series (a “Series”) of New Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement. The proceeds of the New Revolving Loan Commitments and New Term Loan Commitments may be applied by Borrower for working capital and general corporate purposes of Parent and its Subsidiaries and any other use not prohibited by this Agreement including, without limitation, the financing of any Permitted Acquisition or similar Investment; provided that the New Revolving Loan Commitments and New Term Loan Commitments shall be not used to prepay any Subordinated Debt.

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

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

The applicable Administrative Agent shall notify Lenders promptly upon receipt of Borrower’s notice of each Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof (y) the New Revolving Loan Commitments and the New Revolving Loan Lenders or the Series of New Term Loan Commitments and the New Term Loan Lenders of such Series, as applicable, and (z) in the case of each notice to any Revolving Lender, the respective interests in such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loans, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this Section 2.24.

The terms and provisions of the New Revolving Loans shall be identical to the Revolving Loans. The terms and provisions of the New Term Loans and New Term Loan Commitments of any Series shall be as set forth herein or in the applicable Joinder Agreement. In any event (i) the weighted average life to maturity of all New Term Loans of any Series shall be no shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the Revolving Loans or the Initial Term Loans (whichever is longest), (ii) the applicable Maturity Date of each Series shall be no shorter than the latest of the final maturity of the Revolving Loans and the Term Loans, (iii) the Weighted Average Yield applicable to the New Term Loans of each Series shall be determined by Borrower and the applicable new Lenders and shall be set forth in each applicable Joinder

102

Agreement; provided, however, the Weighted Average Yield applicable to the New Term Loans shall not be greater than the applicable Weighted Average Yield payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement as amended through the date of such calculation with respect to the Initial Term Loans plus 0.50% per annum unless the interest rate with respect to the Initial Term Loan is increased so as to cause the then applicable Weighted Average Yield under this Agreement on the Initial Term Loans to equal the Weighted Average Yield then applicable to the New Term Loans less 0.50% and (iv) all other terms of the New Term Loans and New Term Loan Commitments, if not consistent with the terms of the Initial Term Loans, as applicable must be reasonably acceptable to the Term Administrative Agent. Each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the applicable Administrative Agent to effect the provision of this Section 2.24.

2.25. Extensions of Loans.

(a) Borrower may from time to time, pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.25, agree with one or more Lenders holding Loans and Commitments of any Class to extend the maturity date and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.25 (each such modification, an “Extension”) pursuant to one or more written offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by Borrower to all Lenders under any Class that is proposed to be extended under this Section 2.25, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the relative principal amounts of the outstanding Loans of each Lender in such Class) and on the same terms to each such Lender. In connection with each Extension, Borrower will provide notification to the applicable Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Lenders of the applicable Class), no later than 30 days prior to the maturity of the applicable Class or Classes to be extended, which notification will set forth (x) the requested new maturity date for the extended Loans of each such Class (each, an “Extended Maturity Date”) and (y) the due date for Lender responses. In connection with any Extension, each Lender of the applicable Class wishing to participate in such Extension shall, prior to such due date, provide the applicable Administrative Agent with a written notice thereof in a form reasonably satisfactory to such Administrative Agent. Any Lender that does not respond to an Extension Offer by the applicable due date shall be deemed to have rejected such Extension. In connection with any Extension, Borrower shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be reasonably established by, or acceptable to, the applicable Administrative Agent to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.25.

(b) After giving effect to any Extension, the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments so extended shall cease to be a part of the Class that they were a part of immediately prior to the Extension and shall be a new Class hereunder; provided that at no time shall there be more than three (3) different Classes of Term Loans and three (3) different classes of Revolving Commitments; provided further, that, in the case of any Extension Amendment relating to Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans, (i) all borrowings and all prepayments of Revolving Loans shall continue to be made on a ratable basis among all Revolving Lenders, based on the relative amounts of their Revolving Commitments, until the repayment of the Revolving Loans attributable to the non-extended Revolving Commitments on the relevant Maturity Date, (ii) the allocation of the participation exposure with respect to any then-existing or subsequently issued or made Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee as between the Revolving Commitments of such new “Class” and the remaining Revolving Commitments shall be made on

103

a ratable basis in accordance with the relative amounts thereof until the Maturity Date relating to such non-extended Revolving Commitments has occurred, (iii) no termination of Extended Revolving Commitments and no repayment of Revolving Loans thereunder accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in Extended Revolving Commitments shall be permitted unless such termination or repayment (and corresponding reduction) is accompanied by at least a pro rata termination or permanent repayment (and corresponding pro rata permanent reduction), as applicable, of the existing Revolving Loans and Existing Revolving Commitments (or all Existing Revolving Commitments of such Class and related existing Revolving Loans shall have otherwise been terminated and repaid in full) and (iv) with respect to Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees, the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Commitments may not be extended without the prior written consent of the Issuing Bank. If the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments exceeds the Revolving Commitment as a result of the occurrence of the Maturity Date with respect to any Class of Revolving Commitments while an extended Class of Revolving Commitments remains outstanding, Borrower shall make such payments as are necessary in order to eliminate such excess on such Maturity Date.

(i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time any Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders or at the time of such Extension;

(ii) the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, of any Lender extended pursuant to any Extension (as applicable, “Extended Term Loans” or “Extended Revolving Commitments”) shall have the same terms as the Class of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to the related Extension Amendment (as applicable, “Existing Term Loans” or “Existing Revolving Commitments”); except (A) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments of a Class to be extended pursuant to an Extension shall be later than the Latest Maturity Date at the time of such Extension, and the weighted average life to maturity of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments of a Class to be extended pursuant to an Extension shall be no shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the Class of Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to the Latest Maturity Date at the time of such Extension; (B) the all-in pricing (including, without limitation, margins, fees and premiums) with respect to the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, may be higher or lower than the all-in pricing (including, without limitation, margins, fees and premiums) for the Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable; (C) the revolving credit commitment fee rate with respect to the Extended Revolving Commitments may be higher or lower than the revolving credit commitment fee rate for Existing Revolving Commitments, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (D) no repayment of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, shall be permitted unless such repayment is accompanied by an at least pro rata repayment of all earlier maturing Loans (including previously extended Loans) (or all earlier maturing Loans (including previously extended Loans) shall otherwise be or have been terminated

104

and repaid in full); (E) the Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments may contain a “most favored nation” provision for the benefit of Lenders holding Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable; and (F) the other terms and conditions applicable to Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments may be terms different than those with respect to the Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, so long as such terms and conditions only apply after the Latest Maturity Date; provided further, each Extension Amendment may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable extending Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the applicable Administrative Agent and Borrower, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.25, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the extending Lenders as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder; provided, however, no Extension Amendment may provide for any Class of Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Credit Party that does not also secure the Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments;

(iii) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing, and all written communications by Borrower generally directed to the applicable Lenders under the applicable Class in connection therewith shall be in form and substance consistent with the foregoing and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Administrative Agent;

(iv) a minimum amount in respect of such Extension (to be determined in Borrower’s discretion and specified in the relevant Extension Offer) shall be satisfied; and

(v) no Extension shall become effective unless, on the proposed effective date of such Extension, the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 shall be satisfied (with all references in such Section to a Credit Date being deemed to be references to the Extension on the applicable date of such Extension), and applicable Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated the applicable date of such Extension and executed by an Authorized Officer of Borrower.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the provisions of Section 2.17 and Section 10.5 will not apply to Extensions of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to Extension Offers made pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.25, including to any payment of interest or fees in respect of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, that have been extended pursuant to an Extension at a rate or rates different from those paid or payable in respect of Loans of any other Class, in each case as is set forth in the relevant Extension Offer.

(e) No Lender who rejects any request for an Extension shall be deemed a Non-Consenting Lender for purposes of Section 2.23.

105

(f) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the applicable Administrative Agent to enter into amendments (collectively, “Extension Amendments”) to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary in order to establish new Classes of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, created pursuant to an Extension, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.25. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extension, (i) the appropriate Credit Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and each Collateral Agent is hereby directed to amend) any applicable Credit Document that such Collateral Agent reasonably requests to be amended to reflect an Extension and (ii) Borrower shall deliver board resolutions, secretary’s certificates, officer’s certificates and other documents as shall reasonably be requested by the applicable Administrative Agent in connection therewith and if requested by the relevant Lenders, a legal opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to such Administrative Agent as to the enforceability of such Extension Amendment, this Agreement as amended thereby, and such of the other Credit Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby.

(g) Promptly following the consummation and effectiveness of any Extension, Borrower will furnish to the applicable Administrative Agent (who shall promptly furnish to each Lender) written notice setting forth the Extended Maturity Date and material economic terms of the Extension and the aggregate principal amount of each class of Loans and Commitments after giving effect to the Extension and attaching a copy of the fully executed Extension Amendment.

5.16. Further Assurance.

Subject to the Agreed Security Principles, each Credit Party shall (and Parent shall procure that each member of the Restricted Group will) promptly do all such acts or execute all such documents (including assignments, transfers, mortgages, charges, notices and instructions) as the Primary Collateral Agent may reasonably specify (and in such form as the applicable Collateral Agent may reasonably require in favor of the applicable Collateral Agent or its nominee(s)):

(i) to perfect the Transaction Security created or intended to be created under or evidenced by the Collateral Documents (which may include the execution of a mortgage, charge, assignment or other security over all or any of the assets which are, or are intended to be, the subject of the Transaction Security) or for the exercise of any rights, powers and remedies of the applicable Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties provided by or pursuant to the Credit Documents or by law; and/or

(ii) to confer on the applicable Collateral Agent or confer on Lenders and Administrative Agents Liens over any property and assets of that Credit Party located in any jurisdiction equivalent or similar to the Transaction Security intended to be conferred by or pursuant to the Collateral Documents; and/or

131

Bahrain, the British Virgin Islands, Malaysia, Poland, the Slovak Republic, the Kingdom of Thailand or such other jurisdiction consented to by Primary Collateral Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and securing Existing Indebtedness or other obligations of Nord Anglia UK, Borrower, Parent and their Subsidiaries thereunder being repaid on the Closing Date shall be released and (ii) the Transaction Security required to be granted for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement (which Transaction Security shall include but not be limited to, Transaction Security granted by Subsidiaries which are required to grant such Transaction Security in accordance with Section 5.16) shall be granted and perfected in accordance with this Agreement and the Agreed Security Principles, and, in connection therewith, Parent and Borrower shall ensure that the applicable Collateral Agent receives originally executed copies of the written opinions of counsel and such other documentation as may reasonably and customarily be requested by such Collateral Agent, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), pursuant to the steps set forth on Schedule 10.

(a) Borrower’s Board of Directors may designate any Subsidiary of Parent (including newly acquired or newly established Subsidiaries and excluding Borrower) to be an “Unrestricted Subsidiary,” provided that:

(i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such designation;

(ii) Borrower would be permitted to make an Investment at the time of designation (assuming the effectiveness of such designation) pursuant to Section 6.2 in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of Borrower’s or Nord Anglia UK’s interest in such Subsidiary;

(iii) such Subsidiary does not own any Capital Stock, Redeemable Capital Stock or Debt of, or own or hold any Lien on any property or assets of, or have any Investment in, Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary;

(iv) such Subsidiary is not liable, directly or indirectly, with respect to any Debt, Lien or other obligation that, if in default, would result (with the passage of time or giving of notice or otherwise) in a default on any of Borrower’s Debt or Debt of Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary;

(v) such Subsidiary, either alone or in the aggregate with all other Unrestricted Subsidiaries, does not operate, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the businesses of the Subsidiaries of Parent;

151

(A) subscribe for additional Capital Stock of such Person; or

(B) maintain or preserve such Person’s financial condition or to cause such Person to achieve any specified levels of operating results;

(vii) none of Parent, Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary directly or indirectly guarantees, is liable for or provides credit support for the Debt of such Subsidiary; and

(viii) Borrower shall be in compliance with the Financial Covenant on a Pro Forma Basis (whether or not then in effect) after giving effect to such designation as of the last day of the Fiscal Quarter most recently ended (as determined in accordance with Section 6.18).

(b) In the event of any such designation, Borrower or Nord Anglia UK will be deemed to have made an Investment constituting a Restricted Payment pursuant to Section 6.2 for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of Borrower’s or Nord Anglia UK’s interest in such Subsidiary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or continue as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it is a “Restricted Subsidiary” for the purpose of any Material Debt.

(i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of, or will occur and be continuing after giving effect to, such designation;

(ii) such designated Unrestricted Subsidiary will not have any Debt outstanding (other than Debt that would be Permitted Debt), immediately before and after giving effect to such proposed designation, or after giving effect to the Incurrence of any such Debt of such designated Unrestricted Subsidiary on a Pro Forma Basis as if such Debt was Incurred on the date of its designation as a Restricted Subsidiary, the Total Net Leverage Ratio for the four full Fiscal Quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the Incurrence of such Debt, taken as one period, would be less than or equal to 4.50:1.00; and

(iii) any Lien on the property of such Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time of such designation which will be deemed to have been incurred by such newly designated Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such designation would be permitted to be incurred under Section 6.5.

152

foregoing conditions, and giving the effective date of such designation. Any such filing with Administrative Agents must occur within 45 days after the end of Parent’s Fiscal Quarter in which such designation is made (or, in the case of a designation made during the last Fiscal Quarter of Parent’s Fiscal Year, within 90 days after the end of such Fiscal Year).

(e) If a member of the Restricted Group (other than Borrower) is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, each Credit Party will (i) ensure that the Unrestricted Subsidiary does not (and will, for so long as it is an Unrestricted Subsidiary, not) legally or beneficially own shares in any Restricted Subsidiary; and (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no member of the Restricted Group has any material liabilities (including pension, environmental and Tax liabilities) to or in respect of the Unrestricted Subsidiary and if any such material liability arises Borrower will promptly notify Administrative Agents and procure that the Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary to the extent required pursuant to this Section 6.11 as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within 20 Business Days of the first date on which Borrower is aware of the material liability.

6.12. Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets of Borrower.

(a) Borrower will not, in a single transaction or through a series of transactions, merge, consolidate, amalgamate or otherwise combine with or into any other Person or sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of, or take any action pursuant to any resolution passed by Borrower’s Board of Directors or shareholders with respect to a demerger or division pursuant to which Borrower would dispose of, all or substantially all of Borrower’s properties and assets to any other Person or Persons, and Borrower will not, and will not cause or permit any other member of the Restricted Group to, enter into any such transaction or series of transactions if such transaction or series of transactions, in the aggregate, would result in the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of such member of the Restricted Group on a consolidated basis to any other Person or Persons. The previous sentence will not apply if at the time and immediately after giving effect to any such transaction or series of transactions:

(i) either Borrower will be the continuing corporation or the Person (if other than Borrower) formed by or surviving any such merger, consolidation, amalgamation or other combination or to which such sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of such member of the Restricted Group on a consolidated basis has been made (the “Surviving Entity”):

(A) in the case of a merger, consolidation, amalgamation, other combination with, or disposition of properties or assets of, Borrower, will be an entity organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

(B) will expressly assume, by supplemental documentation in form satisfactory to Administrative Agents, Borrower’s obligations under the Credit Documents, and the Credit Documents will remain in full force and effect as so supplemented; and

153

(C) will provide any documentation and other information about the Surviving Entity as shall have been reasonably requested in writing by any Lender through the applicable Administrative Agent that such Lender shall have reasonably determined is required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including Title III of the USA PATRIOT Act;

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions on a Pro Forma Basis (and treating any obligation of any member of the Restricted Group Incurred in connection with or as a result of such transaction or series of transactions as having been Incurred by such member of the Restricted Group at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default will have occurred and be continuing;

(iii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions on a Pro Forma Basis (on the assumption that the transaction or series of transactions occurred on the first day of the four-quarter fiscal period ended immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction or series of transactions with the appropriate adjustments with respect to the transaction or series of transactions being included in such pro forma calculation), the Total Net Leverage Ratio for the four full Fiscal Quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding such transaction or series of transactions, would be less than or equal to 4.50:1.00;

(iv) any Guarantor, unless it is the other party to the transactions described above, has, by way of execution of supplemental documentation satisfactory to Administrative Agents, confirmed that its Guarantee and its obligations under any Collateral Document will apply to such Person’s obligations under the Credit Documents;

(v) if any property or assets of any member of the Restricted Group will thereupon become subject to any Lien, the provisions of Section 6.5 are complied with; and

(vi) Borrower or the Surviving Entity has delivered to Administrative Agents, in form satisfactory to Administrative Agents, an Officers’ Certificate (attaching the computations to demonstrate compliance with clause (iii) above) and an opinion of counsel, each stating that such merger, consolidation, amalgamation or other combination or sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition, and if supplemental documentation is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental documentation, comply with the requirements of this Agreement and that all conditions in this Agreement relating to such transaction have been satisfied.

(b) The Surviving Entity will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, Borrower under the Credit Documents, but, in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of Borrower’s assets, Borrower will not be released from the obligation to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, under the Credit Documents.

154

(c) Nothing in this Section 6 will prevent: (i) any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor from consolidating with, merging into or transferring all or substantially all of its properties and assets to Borrower, a Guarantor or any other Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor or (ii) any Guarantor from merging into or transferring all or part of its properties and assets to Borrower or another Guarantor. In addition, Borrower may consolidate or otherwise combine with or merge into an Affiliate incorporated or organized for the purpose of changing the legal domicile of Borrower, reincorporating Borrower in another jurisdiction in compliance with Section 6.12(a)(i)(A) above or changing the legal form of Borrower.

6.13. Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets of the Guarantors.

(a) Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, no Guarantor will, in a single transaction or through a series of transactions, merge, consolidate, amalgamate or otherwise combine with or into any other Person or sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of, or take any action pursuant to any resolution passed by such Guarantor’s Board of Directors or shareholders with respect to a demerger or division pursuant to which such Guarantor will dispose of, all or substantially all of such Guarantor’s properties and assets to any other Person or Persons. The previous sentence will not apply if at the time and immediately after giving effect to any such transaction or series of transactions:

(ii) the Successor Guarantor (if other than such Guarantor) expressly assumes all the obligations of such Guarantor under the Credit Documents in form satisfactory to the applicable Collateral Agent;

(iii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a Pro Forma Basis, no Default or Event of Default exists and is continuing; and

155

(iv) the Guarantor or the Successor Guarantor has delivered to Administrative Agents, in form satisfactory to Administrative Agents, an Officers’ Certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that such merger, consolidation, amalgamation or other combination or sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition, and if supplemental documentation is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental documentation, comply with the requirements of this Agreement and that all conditions precedent in this Agreement relating to such transaction have been satisfied.

(b) The Successor Guarantor will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the relevant Guarantor under this Agreement, but, in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the Guarantor’s assets, the Guarantor will not be released from the obligation to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, on the Guarantee in respect of the Loans.

SECTION 7. GUARANTY

7.1. Guaranty of the Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2, Guarantors jointly and severally (among them and with respect to each Credit Party) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty to Primary Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations (including all Pari Passu Debt Obligations) when the same shall become due, whether at Stated Maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

157

7.2. Contribution by Guarantors. All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law or applicable foreign law; provided solely for purposes of calculating the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 7.2, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including in respect of this Section 7.2), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 7.2. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. The allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 7.2 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor is a third-party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 7.2.

7.3. Payment by Guarantors. Subject to Section 7.2, Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Secured Party may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of Borrower to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at Stated Maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code), Guarantors will promptly upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to Primary Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for Borrower’s becoming the subject of a case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed

158

against Borrower for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to the Secured Parties as aforesaid.

7.4. Liability of Guarantors Absolute. Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

(a) this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectability. This Guaranty is a primary obligation of each Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety;

(b) Primary Collateral Agent may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between Borrower and any Secured Party with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

(c) the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Borrower and the obligations of any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the obligations of Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against Borrower or any of such other guarantors and whether or not Borrower is joined in any such action or actions;

(d) payment by any Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Primary Collateral Agent is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce any Guarantor’s covenant to pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(e) any Secured Party, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Secured Party in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the

159

order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Secured Party may have against any such security, in each case as such Secured Party in its discretion may determine consistent herewith or the applicable Pari Passu Debt Agreement or applicable Hedge Agreement and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any other Credit Party or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi) exercise any other rights available to it under the Credit Documents, Pari Passu Debt Agreements or any Hedge Agreements; and

(f) this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Credit Documents, Pari Passu Debt Agreements or any Hedge Agreements, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Credit Documents, any of the Pari Passu Debt Agreements, any of the Hedge Agreements or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Credit Document, such Pari Passu Debt Agreement, such Hedge Agreement or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Credit Documents or any of the Pari Passu Debt Agreements or the Hedge Agreements or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Secured Party might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any Secured Party’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set-offs or counterclaims which Borrower may allege or assert against any Secured Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

160

7.5. Waivers by Guarantors. Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of the Secured Parties: (a) any right to require any Secured Party, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against Borrower, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Borrower, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of any Secured Party in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Borrower or any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Borrower or any other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Secured Party’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder, the Pari Passu Debt Agreements, the Hedge Agreements or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to Borrower and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 7.4 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof.

7.6. Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, Etc. Until the Termination Date, each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Borrower or any other Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Secured Party now has or may hereafter have against Borrower, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Secured Party. In addition, until the Termination Date, each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations, including any such right of contribution as contemplated by Section 7.2. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of

161

competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against Borrower or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Secured Party may have against Borrower, to all right, title and interest any Secured Party may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Secured Party may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time prior to the Termination Date, such amount shall be held in trust for Primary Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid over to Primary Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.

7.7. Subordination of Other Obligations. Any Debt of Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Debt collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for Primary Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid over to Primary Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof.

7.8. Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until the Termination Date. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

7.9. Authority of Guarantors or Borrower. It is not necessary for any Secured Party to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or Borrower or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

7.10. Financial Condition of Borrower. Any Credit Extension may be made to Borrower or continued from time to time, any Pari Passu Debt Agreements may be entered into from time to time, and any Hedge Agreements may be entered into from time to time, in each case without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of Borrower at the time of any such grant or continuation or at the time such Pari Passu Debt Agreement or Hedge Agreement is entered into, as the case may be. No Secured Party shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Guarantor its assessment, or any Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of Borrower. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Borrower on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of Borrower and its ability to perform its obligations under the Credit Documents, the Pari Passu Debt Agreement and the Hedge Agreements, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Borrower and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Secured Party to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of Borrower now known or hereafter known by any Secured Party.

162

7.11. Bankruptcy, Etc. (a) So long as any Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, no Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of the Primary Collateral Agent acting pursuant to the instructions of Requisite Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding of or against Borrower or any other Guarantor. The obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Borrower or any other Guarantor or by any defense which Borrower or any other Guarantor may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding.

(b) Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantors and the Secured Parties that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by Guarantors pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve Borrower of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantors will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar Person to pay Primary Collateral Agent, or allow the claim of Primary Collateral Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced.

(c) In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by Borrower, the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any Secured Party as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder.

7.12. Discharge of Guaranty Upon Sale of Guarantor. If (a) all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof or (b) if a Guarantor is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 6.11, then in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b), the Guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Secured Party or any other Person effective as of the time of such Asset Sale or designation as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

7.13. Keepwell. 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 any other Credit Party hereunder to honor all of such Credit Party’s obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 7.13 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this

163

Section 7.13, or otherwise under this Guaranty, as it relates to such Credit Party, 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 7.13 shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 7.13 constitute, and this Section 7.13 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

7.14. Limitation on Guarantor Liability. (a) Each Guarantor and each Credit Party hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance, for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar national, federal, local or state law or voidable preference, financial assistance or improper corporate benefit, or violate the corporate purpose of the relevant Guarantor or any applicable capital maintenance or similar laws or regulations affecting the rights of creditors generally under any applicable law or regulation to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, Primary Collateral Agent, Lenders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Section 7, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting either a fraudulent transfer or conveyance or voidable preference, financial assistance or improper corporate benefit, or violating the corporate purpose of the relevant Guarantor or any applicable capital maintenance or similar laws or regulations affecting the rights of creditors generally under any applicable law or regulation.

(b) Limitations for Bahraini Guarantors. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7, the Guarantee, indemnity and other obligations of any Guarantor incorporated under the laws of the Kingdom of Bahrain expressed to be assumed in this Section 6 shall be deemed to have been given only to the extent that the same do not violate the provisions of Articles 1033 to 1054 (Privileged Rights) of the Civil Code promulgated by Legislative Decree No. 19 of 2001 and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed accordingly.

(i) The obligations and liabilities of any Hungarian Guarantor formed as a foundation under the laws of Hungary under this Section 7 or any other Credit Document shall at all times be limited to the maximum aggregate amount that does not result in any conflict with Hungarian laws applicable to foundations and such Hungarian Guarantor’s deed of foundation.

(ii) The obligations and liabilities of any such Hungarian Guarantor may not:

164

(A) threaten the performance of such Hungarian Guarantor’s activities that serve the purposes stated in its deed of foundation or threaten the maintenance of its operation;

(B) exceed in amount the value of such Hungarian Guarantor’s assets; or

(C) threaten such Hungarian Guarantor’s charitable activities or the status of such Guarantor as a charitable foundation.

(iii) Notwithstanding any term of this Section 7 or any other term in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, any guarantee or indemnity given by or other obligation assumed by such Hungarian Guarantor is meant as and is to be interpreted as an abstract guarantee agreement and not as surety as regulated in Articles 6:416-430 of the Hungarian Civil Code (kezesség) and the Hungarian Guarantor undertakes to comply with the provisions of this clause.

(d) Limitations for Polish Guarantors.

(i) Any Guarantee, indemnity and other obligations of any guarantee granted or assumed by a Guarantor incorporated in Poland (a “Polish Guarantor”) shall be limited in accordance with the following rules:

(A) To the extent the liability under this Section 7 is considered a liability (zobowiązanie) within the meaning of Article 11 section 2 of the Polish Bankruptcy and Rehabilitation Law of 28 February 2003 (Polish Journal of Laws No. 60, item 535, as amended) (“Polish Bankruptcy Law”), the liability of each Polish Guarantor under this Section 7 shall be limited to the aggregate value of the assets of such Polish Guarantor current at the time less the aggregate value of its liabilities current at the time (other than the Polish Guarantor’s liability hereunder), and thus such liability should not result in the Polish Guarantor’s insolvency as defined in Article 11 section 2 of the Polish Bankruptcy Law; and

(B) In addition to the provisions of clause (A) above, each Polish Guarantor that is a limited liability company (Sp. z o.o.) has the right to refrain from making a payment under this Article 11 in the event and to the extent that such payment would result in a reduction of its assets necessary to fully cover its registered share capital under Article 189 section 2 of the Polish Commercial Companies Code of 15 September 2000 (Kodeks spółek handlowych, Polish Journal of Laws No. 94, item 1037, as amended).

(ii) The limitation in Section 7.14(d)(i)(A) hereof will not apply if one or more of the following circumstances occurs:

(A) any Event of Default is continuing, irrespective of whether such Event of Default occurs before or after the relevant Polish Guarantor

165

becomes insolvent within the meaning of Article 11 section 2 of the Polish Bankruptcy Law; or

(B) the liabilities of the relevant Polish Guarantor (other than those under the Collateral Documents) result in its insolvency within the meaning of Article 11 section 2 of the Polish Bankruptcy Law.

Polish law is amended in such a manner that over-indebtedness (xxxx nadmiernego zadłużenia) as provided for in Article 11 section 2 of the Polish Bankruptcy Law (as in force on the date of this Agreement) no longer gives grounds for bankruptcy or obliges the representatives of the Polish Guarantor to file for bankruptcy.

(e) Limitation for Spanish Guarantors. The guarantee provided by any Guarantor incorporated in Spain (a “Spanish Guarantor”) shall be limited in accordance with the following rules:

(i) If such Spanish Guarantor is incorporated in Spain as a sociedad de responsabilidad limitada, any guarantees provided by it shall:

(A) not extend to any obligation incurred by any Credit Party as a result of such Credit Party borrowing (or guaranteeing the borrowing of) funds (but only in respect of those funds) under this Agreement for the purpose of:

(1) acquiring quotas (participaciones sociales) representing the share capital of such Spanish Guarantor or quotas (participaciones sociales) or shares (acciones) representing the share capital of a company within its group; or

(2) refinancing a previous debt incurred by any Credit Party for the acquisition of quotas (participaciones sociales) representing the share capital of such Spanish Guarantor or quotas (participaciones sociales) or shares (acciones) representing the share capital of a company within its group; and shall

It shall be presumed that there is unity of decision when any of the scenarios set out in section 1 and/or section 2 of article 42 of the Royal Decree-Law of August 2nd, 1885, which approves the Commercial Code (Código de Comercio) (“Spanish Commercial Code”) are met.

(iii) If such Spanish Guarantor is incorporated in Spain as a sociedad anónima, any guarantees provided by it shall:

(1) acquiring shares (acciones) representing the share capital of such Spanish Guarantor or shares (acciones) or quotas (participaciones sociales) representing the share capital of its holding company; or

(2) refinancing a previous debt incurred by any Credit Party for the acquisition of shares (acciones) representing the share capital of such Spanish Guarantor or shares (acciones) or quotas (participaciones sociales) representing the share capital of its holding company; and shall

(B) be deemed not to be undertaken or incurred by a Spanish Guarantor to the extent that the same would constitute unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of article 150 of the Spanish Companies Act, and, in that case, all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed accordingly in the sense that, in no case, can any guarantee or security given by a Spanish Guarantor secure repayment of the above-mentioned funds.

(iv) For the purposes of paragraph (iii) above, a reference to a “holding company” of a Spanish Guarantor shall mean the company which, directly or indirectly, owns the majority of the voting rights of such Spanish Guarantor or that may have a dominant influence on such Spanish Guarantor. It shall be presumed that one company has a dominant influence on another company when:

(A) any of the scenarios set out in section 1 of article 42 of the Spanish Commercial Code are met; or

(B) when at least half plus one of the members of the managing body of the Spanish Guarantor are also members of the managing body or top managers (altos directivos) of the dominant company or of another company controlled by such dominant company.

167

(f) Limitations for Swiss Guarantors. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7, the guaranty, indemnity and other obligations of any Guarantor that is incorporated and organized under the laws of Switzerland to be assumed in this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Guarantee) shall be limited as follows:

(ii) In respect of Restricted Obligations, each Swiss Guarantor shall:

(A) if and to the extent required by applicable law in force at the relevant time mitigate to the extent possible any Swiss Anticipatory Tax to be levied on the Restricted Obligations (and cause its parent and other relevant Affiliates to fully cooperate in any mitigating efforts) and promptly notify Primary Collateral Agent thereof or, if such a notification procedure is not applicable;

The Swiss Guarantor shall use its best efforts to ensure that any Person that is, as a result of a deduction of Swiss Anticipatory Tax, entitled to a full or partial refund of the Swiss Anticipatory Tax, will as soon as possible after the deduction of the Swiss Anticipatory Tax (x) request a refund of the Swiss Anticipatory Tax under any applicable law (including double tax treaties) and (y) pay to Primary Collateral Agent upon receipt any amount so refunded for application as a further payment of the Swiss Guarantor under and pursuant to this Agreement.

(iii) To the extent a Swiss Guarantor is required to deduct Swiss Anticipatory Tax pursuant to Section 7.14(f)(ii) hereof, and if the maximum amount of freely disposable shareholder equity pursuant to Section 7.14(f)(i) hereof is not utilized, additional security interests granted by such Swiss Guarantor under this Agreement shall be enforced until the enforcement proceeds equal an amount that (after making any deduction of Swiss Anticipatory Tax) would have resulted if no deduction of Swiss Anticipatory Tax had been required, provided that such enforcement amount (including the increased amount) shall in any event be limited to the maximum amount of freely disposable shareholder equity pursuant to Section 7.14(f)(i) hereof.

(iv) In the case of Restricted Obligations, the Swiss Guarantor shall, and any parent company of the Swiss Guarantor party to this Agreement shall procure that the Swiss Guarantor will, promptly implement all such measures and/or to promptly procure the fulfillment of all prerequisites to allow it to perform its obligations under this Guaranty with minimum limitations and to allow Primary Collateral Agent (and Lenders) prompt use of the proceeds from security, including the following:

(F) by a shareholders’ meeting and/or the board of directors of the Swiss Guarantor of the (resulting) profit distribution or other performance under this Guaranty; and

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall oblige any Agent to conduct any “know your customer” or other procedures in relation to any Person on behalf of any Lender and each Lender confirms to each Agent that it is solely responsible for any such procedures it is required to conduct and that it shall not rely on any statement in relation to such procedures made by any such Agent.

(e) Each Agent may treat each Lender as a Lender, entitled to payments under this Agreement and acting through its primary lending office, unless it has received not less than five Business Days’ prior notice from that Lender to the contrary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(f) The Lenders shall supply the Term Loan Administrative Agent with any information that either Collateral Agent may reasonably specify (through the Term Loan Administrative Agent) as being necessary or desirable to enable such Collateral Agent to perform its functions as a Collateral Agent. Each Lender shall deal with the Collateral Agents exclusively through the Term Loan Administrative Agent.

(g) Any Lender may by notice to the applicable Administrative Agent appoint a person to receive on its behalf all notices, communications, information and documents to be made or dispatched to that Lender under the Credit Documents. Such notice shall contain the address, fax number and (where communication by electronic mail or other electronic means is permitted under Section 10.1), electronic mail address and/or any other information required to enable the sending and receipt of information by that means (and, in each case, the department or officer, if any, for whose attention communication is to be made) and be treated as a notification of a substitute address, fax number, electronic mail address, department and officer by that Lender for the purposes of Section 10.1 and the applicable Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat such person as the person entitled to receive all such notices, communications, information and documents as though that person were that Lender.

180

suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Credit Documents or otherwise in its capacity as such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents; provided no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from any such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof; and provided further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence.

9.7. Successor Administrative Agents and Collateral Agents.

(a) Each Administrative Agent shall have the right to resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to the other Administrative Agent, Lenders and Borrower and each Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to Borrower and such Administrative Agent and signed by Requisite Revolving Lenders or Requisite Term Loan Lenders, as the case may be. Each Administrative Agent shall have the right to appoint a financial institution to act as its succeeding Administrative Agent hereunder, as the case may be, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of Borrower and the Requisite Revolving Lenders or Requisite Term Loan Lenders, as the case may be, and such Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earliest of (i) 30 days after delivery of the notice of resignation (regardless of whether a successor has been appointed or not), (ii) the acceptance of such successor Administrative Agent by Borrower and the Requisite Revolving Lenders or Requisite Term Loan Lenders, as the case may be, or (iii) such other date, if any, agreed to by the Requisite Revolving Lenders or Requisite Term Loan Lenders, as the case may be. Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal, if a successor Administrative Agent has not already been appointed by the retiring Administrative Agent, the Requisite Revolving Lenders or Requisite Term Loan Lenders, as the case may be, shall have the right, upon five Business Days’ notice to Borrower, to appoint a successor Revolving Facility Administrative Agent or Term Administrative Agent, as the case may be. If neither the Requisite Revolving Lenders or Requisite Term Loan Lenders, as the case may be, nor the retiring Administrative Agent have appointed a successor Administrative Agent, the Requisite Revolving Lenders or Requisite Term Loan Lenders, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the applicable retiring Administrative Agent; provided that, until a successor Term Administrative Agent is so appointed by the Requisite Term Loan Lenders or the retiring Term Administrative Agent, any collateral security held by Term Administrative Agent in its role as Primary Collateral Agent and by Hungarian Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders or Issuing Bank under any of the Credit Documents shall continue to be held by the retiring Collateral

181

Agents as nominee until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed and such retiring Term Administrative Agent may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a replacement Term Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Administrative Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held under the Collateral Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Administrative Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Administrative Agent of the security interests created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. Except as provided above, any resignation or removal of a Term Administrative Agent or its successor as Term Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.7 shall also constitute the resignation or removal of such Term Administrative Agent or its successor as Primary Collateral Agent and of HSBC PLC or its successor as Hungarian Collateral Agent. After any retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent hereunder. Any successor Term Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to this Section 9.7 shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Primary Collateral Agent (and shall become or appoint the successor Hungarian Collateral Agent) for all purposes hereunder.

(b) In addition to the foregoing, either Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower, and either Collateral Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to Borrower and such Collateral Agent signed by Requisite Lenders. Both Administrative Agents shall have the right to mutually agree upon and appoint a financial institution as Primary Collateral Agent or Hungarian Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hereunder, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of Borrower and the Requisite Lenders and either Collateral Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earliest of (i) 30 days after delivery of the notice of resignation, (ii) the acceptance of such successor Collateral Agent by Borrower and the Requisite Lenders or (iii) such other date, if any, agreed to by the Requisite Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal, Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five Business Days’ notice to Term Administrative Agent, to appoint a successor Primary Collateral Agent or Hungarian Collateral Agent, as the case may be. Until such successor Collateral Agent is so appointed by Requisite Lenders or Term Administrative Agent, any collateral security held by such Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders or Issuing Bank under any of the Credit Documents shall continue to be held by the retiring Collateral Agent as nominee until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Primary Collateral Agent or Hungarian Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the applicable Collateral Documents, and

182

the retiring or removed Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder or under the Collateral Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the applicable Collateral Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created under the applicable Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring or removed Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the applicable Collateral Documents. After any retiring or removed Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the Primary Collateral Agent or the Hungarian Collateral Agent, as the case may be, the provisions of this Agreement and the applicable Collateral Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement or the applicable Collateral Documents while it was the Primary Collateral Agent or Hungarian Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hereunder.

9.8. Collateral Documents and Guaranty.

(a) Agents under Collateral Documents and Guaranty. Each Secured Party hereby further authorizes each Collateral Agent on behalf of and for the benefit of Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of Secured Parties with respect to the Guaranty, the Collateral and the applicable Collateral Documents. Subject to Section 9.5 and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, if in effect, without further written consent or authorization from any Secured Party, upon request of Borrower, the applicable Collateral Agent shall execute any documents or instruments necessary (i) in connection with a sale or disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement or any Permitted Transaction, release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of such sale or other disposition of assets or to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 9.5) have otherwise consented, (ii) to release the Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.12 and any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral of, or with respect to, any Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 6.11 or (iii) to release any Guarantor from the Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.12 or with respect to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 9.5) have otherwise consented.

(b) Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guaranty. Anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower, each Administrative Agent, each Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the Credit Documents may be exercised solely by Term Administrative Agent, Primary Collateral Agent or Hungarian Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the applicable Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof, and (ii) (subject to the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, if in effect), in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by either Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other

183

disposition (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or similar provisions under any other applicable Bankruptcy Law), such Collateral Agent (or any Lender, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or similar provisions under any other applicable Bankruptcy Law) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and such Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from Requisite Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by such Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.

(c) Rights under Hedge Agreements. No Hedge Agreement will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Lender Counterparty that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Guarantor under the Credit Documents. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, such Lender Counterparty shall be deemed to have appointed each Collateral Agent as its agent and agreed to be bound by the Credit Documents as a Secured Party, subject to the limitations set forth in this clause (c).

(d) Release of Collateral and Guarantees, Termination of Credit Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Credit Document (but subject to the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, if in effect), when the Termination Date shall have occurred, upon request of Borrower, the applicable Collateral Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Hedge Agreement) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations provided for in any Credit Document, whether or not on the date of such release there may be outstanding Obligations in respect of Hedge Agreements. Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(e) Each Collateral Agent, its officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, genuineness, value or collectability of the Transaction Security, the legality, enforceability, effectiveness or sufficiency of the Collateral Documents, existence, enforceability, effectiveness, sufficiency, priority or perfection of such Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Credit Party in connection therewith, nor shall such Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Transaction Security or any failure to demand, collect, foreclose or realize upon or otherwise enforce any of the Lien or Collateral Documents or any delay in doing so.

184

(f) Each Lender, each Agent and each other Secured Party hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes each Collateral Agent, in its capacity as Primary Collateral Agent or Hungarian Collateral Agent, as the case may be, and a Secured Party in respect of the Obligations, to enter into any Intercreditor Agreement and to take such actions under the provisions thereof as contemplated thereunder. Each such Person also agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of such Intercreditor Agreement. Each Collateral Agent (in its capacity as “Security Agent” or similarly described role under (and as defined in) such Intercreditor Agreement) hereby consents to each Lender becoming a “Pari Passu Creditor” or similarly described capacity under (and as defined in) such Intercreditor Agreement, and agrees that it will accept and accede to such Intercreditor Agreement pursuant to a written undertaking in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Primary Collateral Agent.

9.9. Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, either Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that such Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify such Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, or if such Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding tax from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify such Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by such Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

9.10. Primary Collateral Agent May File Bankruptcy Disclosure and Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Laws relative to any Credit Party, Primary Collateral Agent on behalf of the Requisite Lenders (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or Obligation under a Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Primary Collateral Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file a verified statement pursuant to rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure that, in its sole opinion, complies with such rule’s disclosure requirements for entities representing more than one creditor;

(b) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, Issuing Bank and Administrative Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of either Administrative Agent and its respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due such Administrative Agent under Sections 2.4, 2.11, 10.2 and 10.3) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

185

(c) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and Issuing Bank to make such payments to the applicable Administrative Agent and, in the event that such Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and Issuing Bank, to pay to such Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of such Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due such Administrative Agent under Sections 2.11, 10.2 and 10.3. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of such Administrative Agent, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due such Administrative Agent under Sections 2.11, 10.2 and 10.3 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Lenders or Issuing Banks may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Primary Collateral Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Credit Agreement Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Primary Collateral Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

9.11. Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorism. Any Agent may take and instruct any sub-agent or delegate to take any action which it in its sole discretion considers appropriate so as to comply with any applicable law, regulation, or request of a public or regulatory authority or any of its group policies which relate to the prevention of fraud, money laundering, terrorism or other criminal activities or the provision of financial and other services to sanctioned persons or entities. Such action may include but is not limited to the interception and investigation of transactions on accounts (particularly those involving the international transfer of funds) including the source of the intended recipient of fund paid into or out of accounts. In certain circumstances, such action may delay or prevent the processing of instructions, the settlement of transactions over the accounts or such Agent’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Where permitted by applicable law, such Agent will use all reasonable endeavors to notify Borrower of the existence of such circumstances. Neither such Agent nor any delegate of or sub-agent of such Agent will be liable for any loss (whether direct or consequential and including, without limitation, loss of profit or interest) caused in whole or in part by any actions which are taken by such Agent or any delegate or sub-agent of such Agent pursuant to this Section 9.11.

9.12. Parallel Debt.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Credit Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to each Collateral Agent (without duplication), as creditor in its own right and not as representative of the Secured Parties or any Secured Party, sums equal to and in the currency of each amount payable

186

as the Secured Creditor Claim under each of the Credit Documents, the Pari Passu Debt Agreements and Hedge Agreements as and when that amount falls due for payment under the relevant Credit Documents, the Pari Passu Debt Agreements or Hedge Agreements or would have fallen due but for any discharge resulting from failure of a Secured Party to take appropriate steps, in insolvency proceedings affecting such Credit Party, to preserve its entitlement to be paid that amount (“Collateral Agent Claim”). Such undertaking shall constitute an own independent right of such Collateral Agent to demand and receive payment of the Collateral Agent Claim.

(b) Unless expressly provided to the contrary in any Credit Document, Pari Passu Debt Agreement or Hedge Agreement, each Collateral Agent holds:

(i) the benefit of any applicable Collateral Agent Claims; and

(ii) any proceeds of security created by an applicable Collateral Document governed by any law other than Swiss law and Spanish law,

for the benefit, and as the property, of the Secured Parties and so that they are not available to the personal creditors of such Collateral Agent.

(d) The property rights under clause (b) above are located in the jurisdiction where each Collateral Agent maintains its accounts in respect of those property rights.

(e) Each Credit Party must pay each Collateral Agent (without duplication), as an independent and separate creditor, an amount equal to each Secured Creditor Claim on its due date.

(f) Each Collateral Agent may enforce performance of any Collateral Agent Claim in its own name as an independent and separate right. This includes any suit, execution, enforcement of security, recovery of guarantees and applications for and voting in respect of any kind of insolvency proceeding.

(g) Each Secured Party must, at the request of either Collateral Agent, perform any act required in connection with the enforcement of any Collateral Agent Claim. This includes joining in any proceedings as co-claimant with such Collateral Agent.

(h) Each Credit Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right it may have to require a Secured Party to join in any proceedings as co-claimant with either Collateral Agent in respect of any Collateral Agent Claim.

(i) Discharge by a Credit Party of a Secured Creditor Claim will discharge:

(i) the corresponding Collateral Agent Claim in the same amount; and

187

(ii) the corresponding Secured Creditor Claim in the same amount.

(j) Discharge by a Credit Party of a Collateral Agent Claim will discharge the corresponding Secured Creditor Claim in the same amount.

(k) The aggregate amount of the Collateral Agent Claims against a Credit Party in connection with the Credit Documents will never exceed the aggregate amount of Secured Creditor Claims owed by such Credit Party under the Credit Documents.

(l) The aggregate amount of the Collateral Agent Claims against a Credit Party in connection with the Hedge Agreements will never exceed the aggregate amount of Secured Creditor Claims owed by such Credit Party under the relevant Hedge Agreements.

(m) A defect affecting a Collateral Agent Claim against a Credit Party:

(i) in connection with the Credit Documents will not affect any Secured Creditor Claim under the Credit Documents;

(ii) in connection with the Hedge Agreements will not affect any Secured Creditor Claim under the applicable Hedge Agreements; and

(iii) in connection with the Pari Passu Debt Agreements will not affect any Secured Creditor Claim under the applicable Pari Passu Debt Agreements;

(n) A defect affecting a Secured Creditor Claim against a Credit Party:

(i) under the Credit Documents will not affect any Collateral Agent Claim under the Credit Documents; and

(ii) in connection with the Hedge Agreements will not affect any Collateral Agent Claim under the applicable Hedge Agreements; and

(iii) in connection with the Pari Passu Debt Agreements will not affect any Secured Creditor Claim under the applicable Pari Passu Debt Agreements;

(o) If either Collateral Agent returns to any Credit Party, whether in any kind of insolvency proceedings or otherwise, any recovery in respect of which it has made a payment to a Secured Party, that Secured Party must repay an amount equal to that recovery to such Collateral Agent.

(p) For the purpose of this Section 9.12, each Collateral Agent acts in its own name and not as a trustee, and its claims under this Section 9.12 shall not be held on trust. The security granted under the Collateral Documents to such Collateral Agent to secure the claims of such Collateral Agent under this Section 9.12 is granted to such Collateral Agent in its capacity as creditor and shall not be held on trust.

188

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1. Notices.

(a) Notices Generally. Any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given to a Credit Party, Syndication Agent, either Collateral Agent, either Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank, shall be sent to such Person’s address as set forth on Appendix B or in the other relevant Credit Document, and in the case of any Lender, the address as indicated on Appendix B or otherwise indicated to the applicable Administrative Agent in writing.

In the event that any Public Lender has determined for itself to not access any information disclosed through the Platform or otherwise, such Public Lender acknowledges that (i) other Lenders may have availed themselves of such information and (ii) none of Borrower nor Administrative Agents has any responsibility for such Public Lender’s decision to limit the scope of the information it has obtained in connection with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

10.3. Indemnity.

(a) In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 10.2, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, each Credit Party agrees to defend (subject to Indemnitees’ selection of counsel), indemnify, pay and hold harmless, each Agent and Lender and each of their respective officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates (each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided no Credit Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) a material breach of the obligations under the Credit Documents of such Indemnitee or any of such Indemnitee’s controlled affiliates (to the extent determined in a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction) and (iii) any proceeding that does not involve an act or omission by any Credit Party and that is brought by an Indemnitee against any other Indemnitee that does not involve an act or omission by a member of the Restricted Group (other than any claims against an Agent or arranger in their capacity as such). To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 10.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the applicable Credit Party shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against each Lender, each Agent and their respective

191

Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to xxx upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

The rights of each Lender, Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 10.4 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have.

10.5. Amendments and Waivers.

Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be effective as of the Assignment Effective Date. In connection with all assignments there shall be delivered to the applicable Administrative Agent such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.20, together with payment to such Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable (y) in connection with an assignment of Term Loans by or to Xxxxxxx Xxxxx or any Affiliate thereof or (z) in the case of an assignee or assignor of Term Loans which is already a Term Loan Lender or is an affiliate or Related Fund of a Term Loan Lender or a Person under common management with a Term Loan Lender).

(ii) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the applicable Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Borrower and such Administrative Agent, the applicable Pro Rata Share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to such Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Pro Rata Share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this clause (ii), then the

198

assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(e) Representations and Warranties of Assignee. Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in the Commitments and/or Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the date hereof or as of the Assignment Effective Date that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable Commitments and/or Loans, as the case may be; and (iii) it will make or invest in, as the case may be, its Commitments and/or Loans for its own account in the ordinary course and without a view to distribution of such Commitments and/or Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.6, the disposition of such Commitments and/or Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control).

(f) Effect of Assignment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.6, as of the Assignment Effective Date (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent of its interest in the Loans and Commitments as reflected in the Register and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assignee is only entitled to receive payment under Section 2.20 to the same extent as the applicable assigning Lender would have been if the assignment had not occurred; (iii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to the assignee, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination hereof under Section 10.8) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto on the Assignment Effective Date; provided anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, (y) Issuing Bank shall continue to have all rights and obligations thereof with respect to such Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees until the cancellation or expiration of such Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder and (z) such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder); (iv) the Commitments and/or Loans shall be modified to reflect any Commitment of such assignee and any Revolving Commitment and/or Loan of such assigning Lender, if any; and (v) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to the applicable Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon Borrower shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Revolving Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.

(g) Participations.

(i) Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than any natural Person, any Disqualified Institution, Parent, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates; provided that for the purposes of

199

this provision, a Disqualified Institution shall only be deemed to be a Disqualified Institution if a list of Disqualified Institutions has been made available to all Lenders by Borrower) in all or any part of its Commitments, Loans or in any other Credit Agreement Obligation. Each Lender that sells a participation pursuant to this Section 10.6(g) shall, acting solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it records the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts of each participant’s participation interest with respect to the Term Loan (each, a “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 or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Unless otherwise required by the Internal Revenue Service, any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the Internal Revenue Service. 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 a participation with respect to the Term Loan for all purposes under this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(ii) The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (A) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan, Note, Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee (unless such Letter of Credit or Bank Guarantee is not extended beyond the Revolving Commitment Termination Date) in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (B) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (C) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents or all or substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guaranty (in each case, except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating.

(iii) Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18(c), 2.19 and 2.20 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.6(c); provided that a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.19 or 2.20 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless (x) sale of the participation to such

200

participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), or (y) except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment arises from a Change in Law for which Borrower would be obligated to make a payment to such participant under Section 2.19; provided further that, except as specifically set forth in clause (x) of this sentence, nothing herein shall require any notice to Borrower or any other Person in connection with the sale of any participation. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.4 as though it were a Lender; provided such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender.

(h) Certain Other Assignments and Participations. In addition to any other assignment or participation permitted pursuant to this Section 10.6 any Lender may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its Loans, the other Credit Agreement Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including, without limitation, any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no Lender, as between Borrower and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge; and provided further, that in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee, be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

(i) Assignments to Borrower.

(ii) with respect to all repurchases made pursuant to this Section 10.6(i), (A) each Person that purchases any Term Loans shall deliver to the Term Administrative Agent or Auction Manager, as applicable, a certificate of an Authorized Officer stating that (1) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such repurchase and (2) as of the launch date of the related Auction and the effective date of any Affiliate Assignment Agreement, either (x) it is not in

201

possession of any information regarding Borrower, Nord Anglia UK, their respective Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates, or their assets, Borrower’s ability to perform its Credit Agreement Obligations or any other matter that may be material to a decision by any Lender to participate in any Auction or enter into any Affiliate Assignment Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereby that has not previously been disclosed to Term Administrative Agent and the Non-Public Lenders or (y) it cannot make such statement described in the immediately preceding subclause (x), (B) the proceeds of any Revolving Loans shall not be used to acquire such Term Loans, (C) the assigning Lender and assignee shall execute and deliver to the Auction Manager an Affiliate Assignment Agreement, (D) in the case of open market purchases, at the time of purchase, the sum of Cash and Cash Equivalents of the Credit Parties, unused Revolving Commitments and unused commitments with respect to any other revolving Debt permitted under this Agreement shall not be less than $100,000,000 and (E) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of all Classes sold, assigned or transferred under this Section 10.6(i) shall not exceed 25% of Term Loans of all Classes at such time outstanding; and

(iii) following repurchase pursuant to this Section 10.6(i), the Term Loans so repurchased shall, without further action by any Person, (A) if the assignee is Parent or a Subsidiary of Parent, be deemed to have been contributed or transferred (including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon), to Borrower; or (B) if the assignee is Borrower (including through contribution or transfers set forth in the preceding clause (A)), be deemed cancelled for all purposes and no longer outstanding (and may not be resold by Borrower), for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Credit Documents, including, but not limited to (1) the making of, or the application of, any payments to the Lenders under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (2) the making of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or (3) the determination of Requisite Lenders, or for any similar or related purpose, under this Agreement or any other Credit Document. In connection with any Term Loans repurchased and cancelled pursuant to this Section 10.6(i), Term Administrative Agent is authorized to make appropriate entries in the Register to reflect any such cancellation.

(j) Universal Succession.

(i) If a Revolving Lender is to be merged with any other Person by universal succession, such Revolving Lender shall, at its own cost within forty-five days of that merger furnish to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent:

(A) an original or certified true copy of a legal opinion issued by a qualified legal counsel practicing law in its jurisdiction of incorporation confirming that all such Revolving Lender’s assets, rights and obligations generally have been duly vested in the succeeding entity who has succeeded to all relationships as if those assets, rights and obligations had been originally acquired, incurred or entered into by the succeeding entity; and

202

(B) an original or certified true copy of a written confirmation by either the Revolving Lender’s legal counsel or such other legal counsel acceptable to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Facility Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Revolving Facility Administrative Agent for the Revolving Lenders) that the laws of the jurisdiction in which the principal office of such Revolving Lender is located recognize such merger by universal succession under the relevant foreign laws whereupon a transfer and novation of all such Revolving Lender’s assets, rights and obligations to its succeeding entity shall have been, or be deemed to have been, duly effected as at the date of the said merger.

(ii) If such Revolving Lender, in a universal succession, does not comply with the requirements under this Section 10.6(j), Revolving Facility Administrative Agent has the right to decline to recognize the succeeding entity and demand such Revolving Lender and the succeeding entity to either sign and deliver an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent evidencing the disposal of all rights and obligations of such Revolving Lender to that succeeding entity, or provide or enter into such documents, or make such arrangements acceptable to Revolving Facility Administrative Agent (acting on the advice of the Revolving Lender’s legal counsel (any legal costs so incurred shall be borne by the relevant Revolving Lender) in order to establish that all rights and obligations of the relevant Revolving Lender under this Agreement have been transferred to and assumed by the succeeding entity.

10.7. Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

10.8. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit Extension. Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of each Credit Party set forth in Sections 2.18(c), 2.19, 2.20, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 2.17, 9.3 and 9.6 shall survive the payment of the Loans, the cancellation or expiration of the Letters of Credit and the Bank Guarantees and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder, and the termination hereof and with respect to Sections 9.3 and 9.6, the resignation or removal of the applicable Agent.

10.9. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies

203

existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Credit Documents or any of the Pari Passu Debt Agreements or the Hedge Agreements. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

10.11. Severability. In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

10.12. Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Credit Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out this Agreement and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

Each Agent and each Lender (which term shall for the purposes of this Section 10.17 include the Issuing Bank) shall hold all Non-Public Information regarding Parent, Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates and their businesses identified as such by Borrower and obtained by such Agent or such Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Agent’s and such Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by Borrower that, in any event, either Administrative Agent may disclose such information to the Lenders and each Agent and each Lender and each Agent may make (i) disclosures of such information to Affiliates of such Lender or Agent and to their respective officers, directors, partners, members, employees, legal counsel, independent auditors and other advisors, experts or agents who need to know such information and on a confidential basis (and to other Persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.17), (ii) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any potential or prospective assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Loans or any participations therein or by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Borrower and its obligations (provided such assignees, transferees, participants, counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 10.17 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 10.17), (iii) disclosure to any rating agency when required by it; provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to Credit Parties received by it from any Agent or any Lender, (iv) disclosure on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans, (v) disclosures in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document, (vi) disclosures made pursuant to the order of any court or administrative agency or in any pending legal or administrative proceeding, or otherwise as required by applicable law or compulsory legal process (in which case such Person agrees to inform Borrower promptly

206

thereof to the extent not prohibited by law) and (vii) disclosures made upon the request or demand of any regulatory or quasi-regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or any of its Affiliates. In addition, each Agent and each Lender may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. For purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, each Administrative Agent shall be regarded as acting through its agency division, which shall be treated as a separate legal person from any other of its branches, divisions or departments. If any information is received by another branch, division or department of the legal person which is such Administrative Agent, it may be treated as confidential to that branch, division or department and such Agent shall not be deemed to have notice of it. Such Administrative Agent shall not be obliged to disclose to any other Agent or any Lender any information supplied to it by Borrower or any Affiliates of Borrower on a confidential basis and for the purpose of evaluating whether any waiver or amendment is or may be required or desirable in relation to any Credit Document.

10.18. Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Credit Agreement Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall pay to the applicable Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Borrower.

10.19. Effectiveness; Counterparts. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by Borrower and Administrative Agents of written notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic format (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

207

10.20. Entire Agreement. With the exception of those terms of the Engagement Letter which by the terms of the Engagement Letter remain in full force and effect, the Arrangers’ and their respective Affiliates’ obligations under the Engagement Letter shall terminate and be superseded by the Credit Documents and the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates shall be released from all liability in connection therewith, including any claim for injury or damages, whether consequential, special, direct, indirect, punitive or otherwise. No statements or agreements, oral or written, made prior to or at the signing hereof shall vary, waive or modify the written terms hereof.

10.21. PATRIOT Act. Each Lender and each Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender or such Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Credit Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

10.22. Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

10.23. No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this Section 10.23, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Credit Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Credit Party agrees that nothing in the Credit Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Agent, or any Lender, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the other. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Credit Party, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Credit Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Credit Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Credit Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Credit Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Credit Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of

208

any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Credit Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

10.24. Judgment Currency. In respect of any judgment or order given or made for any amount due under this Agreement or any other Credit Document that is expressed and paid in a currency (the “judgment currency”) other than Dollars, the Credit Parties will indemnify the applicable Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and any Lender against any loss incurred by them as a result of any variation as between (i) the rate of exchange at which the Dollar amount is converted into the judgment currency for the purpose of such judgment or order and (ii) the rate of exchange, as quoted by the applicable Administrative Agent or by a known dealer in the judgment currency that is designated by such Administrative Agent, at which such Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender is able to purchase Dollars with the amount of the judgment currency actually received by such Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Credit Parties and shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid. The term “rate of exchange” shall include any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of or conversion into Dollars.

Schedule 2

Agreed Security Principles

1. AGREED SECURITY PRINCIPLES

1.1 Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to assist in demonstrating that adequate corporate benefit accrues to the relevant Guarantor Company (as defined below).

1.2 The guarantees and security to be provided will be given in accordance with certain Agreed Security Principles. Borrower, Agents and Lenders have agreed and acknowledged that their rights and obligations under the Credit Documents and any Pari Passu Agreements (together, the “Secured Documents”) in respect of (i) the giving or taking of guarantees, (ii) the giving and taking of security and (iii) all of the rights and obligations associated with such giving or taking of guarantees and security, shall be subject to and limited by these Agreed Security Principles.

1.3 The Agreed Security Principles embody a recognition by all parties that there may be certain legal and practical difficulties in obtaining effective guarantees and security from all Material Companies and other members of the Restricted Group required to give guarantees and security (the “Guarantor Companies”) in every jurisdiction in which Guarantor Companies are or may in the future be located. In particular:

(a) general statutory limitations, financial assistance, capital maintenance, corporate benefit, fraudulent preference, “thin capitalisation” rules, retention of title claims and similar principles may limit the ability of a Guarantor Company to provide a guarantee or security or may require that the guarantee or security be limited by an amount or otherwise (including any legal fees, registration fees, stamp duty taxes and any other fees or related costs). Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome any such limitation to the extent reasonably practicable. If, following the commercially reasonable efforts of Borrower to overcome such limitations any such limit continues to apply, the guarantees and security provided will be limited to the maximum amount which the relevant member of the Restricted Group may provide having regard to applicable law (including any jurisprudence) and otherwise so as to minimise stamp duty, notarization, registration tax or other applicable fees, taxes and duties;

(b) the giving of a guarantee, the granting and the terms of security or the perfection of the security granted will not be required to the extent it would (or could) incur any cost (including any legal fees, notarization, registration or other applicable fees, stamp duty or other duties, taxes and any other fees or related costs) to the Restricted Group which are disproportionate to the benefit for the Secured Parties of obtaining such guarantees or security;

(c) where a class of assets to be secured includes material and immaterial assets, if the cost of granting security over the immaterial assets is disproportionate to the benefit of such security, security will be granted over the material assets only;

SCHEDULE-2-1

(d) it is expressly acknowledged that in certain jurisdictions it may be either impossible or impractical to grant guarantees or create security over certain categories of assets, in which event such guarantees will not be granted and security will not be taken over such assets; provided that Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome any such obstacle;

(e) unless granted under a global security document governed by the law of the jurisdiction of a Guarantor Company or under English law or law of the State of New York, all security (other than share security over its Subsidiaries) shall be governed by the law of the jurisdiction of incorporation of that Guarantor Company; provided that security in any Guarantor Company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands may be granted under the law of Hong Kong;

(f) any assets subject to third party arrangements which may prevent those assets from being charged (or assigned by way of security) will be excluded from any relevant Secured Document; provided that (subject as otherwise set out in these Agreed Security Principles) commercially reasonable efforts to obtain consent or waiver to charging any such assets shall be used by the Restricted Group if the relevant asset is material and Borrower determines that such endeavours will not jeopardise commercial relationships with third parties;

(g) Guarantor Companies will not be required to give guarantees or enter into security documents if it is not within the legal capacity of the relevant Guarantor Company or if the same would conflict with the fiduciary duties of their directors or contravene any legal prohibition or would reasonably be expected to result in a risk of personal or criminal liability on the part of any director or other officer of such Guarantor Company or of any member of the Restricted Group; provided that the relevant Restricted Group member shall use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome any such obstacle;

The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited (the "Bank") BANK GUARANTEE/BOND TERMS AND CONDITIONS IMPORTANT NOTICE The Instructing Party should be responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with the proposed Guarantee and related transactions. The terms and conditions herein may have certain risks that the Instructing Party should be aware but the risks highlighted herein are not exhaustive. If the Instructing Party has any question concerning the proposed Guarantee transaction or its obligations towards the Bank in relation thereto, it should obtain independent legal advice from its own lawyers. 1. This application is subject to the General Security Agreement Relating to Goods, the Trade Financing General Agreement, the Counter-Indemnity and/or Blanket Counter-Indemnity (the "Indemnity") and any other agreement(s) previously signed by the instructing party of this application (the "Instructing Party") and delivered to The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited (the "Bank" which expression shall include any successors and assigns). This application as well as the Guarantee issued in relation to this application will be subject to the Uniform Rules for Demand Guarantees (URDG) published by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) unless the Instructing Party requires otherwise and the Bank agrees to do so. In case of conflict, the terms of this application shall prevail. 2. In this application, the following terms shall have the meanings below: (a) "Correspondent" means any bank (including any branch of the Bank or HSBC group office) which issues the Guarantee at the request or on the instruction of the Bank; (b) "Counter-guarantee" means the counter-guarantee, counter-indemnity, indemnity or undertaking, however named or described and in such form and contents as determined by the Bank in its sole discretion, which is at any time issued by the Bank to a Correspondent in order to procure, arrange or facilitate the issuance of the Guarantee by the relevant Correspondent and includes any amendment, extension or renewal of the Counter-guarantee; (c) "Guarantee" means the guarantee, bond, indemnity or undertaking, however named or described, which is at any time issued pursuant to the request of the Instructing Party under this application and includes any amendment, extension or renewal of the Guarantee; and (d) "Guarantee Instrument" means the Guarantee (whether issued by the Bank or a Correspondent), and/or the Counter-guarantee. 3. The Bank or the Correspondent has the right to pay any demand made under any Guarantee Instrument in accordance with its terms and the Bank may seek recourse against the Instructing Party for any payment made by the Bank under any Guarantee Instrument issued by it in connection with this application and/or pursuant to the Indemnity given by the Instructing Party. Whether or not it is expressly stated in the Guarantee, neither the Bank nor any Correspondent has any obligation to verify claims made by the beneficiary named in the Guarantee Instrument (the "Beneficiary" which expression shall include any assignee, successor or transferee where applicable). Neither the Bank nor any Correspondent shall or may be in any way responsible for the validity, regularity, authenticity, genuineness, form, sufficiency, accuracy, falsification or legal effect of any statement, certificate, declaration or document presented or communicated under or in connection with any Guarantee Instrument, or the existence, description, quality, quantity, weight, condition, packing, delivery or value of the goods, services or other performance represented by such statement, certificate, declaration or document. 4. If, at the request of the Instructing Party, the Bank requests or procures a Correspondent to issue any Guarantee, the Bank may, and is authorised to, issue a Counter-guarantee in such form and contents as determined by the Bank at its sole discretion in favour of the Correspondent for issuance of the Guarantee. 5. The Instructing Party undertakes to reimburse the Bank in full each sum paid in connection with any Guarantee Instrument upon the Bank's demand together with interest calculated from the date of payment by the Bank until the date of the reimbursement in full. The Instructing Party irrevocably authorises the Bank to debit the Instructing Party's account(s) for any such sum or restrict the Instructing Party from withdrawing any such sum from the Instructing Party's account(s) at any time the Bank thinks appropriate. Such sum includes interest, costs, expenses, commissions, drawings, claims and/or demands from the Beneficiary or any Correspondent and any payment effected by the Bank in connection with any Guarantee Instrument. 6. Unless the Guarantee expressly provides that the original Guarantee must be presented to the Bank or the Correspondent to support a claim, the Bank or the Correspondent shall be entitled to pay and/or comply with any demand, whether or not the original of the Guarantee Instrument is presented to the Bank or the Correspondent. 7. Whilst the Instructing Party may claim that a Guarantee Instrument has been cancelled or terminated, there may be instances where the Bank may determine that it is necessary to obtain the Beneficiary's written confirmation regarding the release of the liabilities of the Bank or the Correspondent under the Guarantee Instrument. Such determination, if made by the Bank or the Correspondent, shall be binding on the Instructing Party. The instances referred to above may include without limitation the following: (a) the Guarantee is terminated prior to its stated expiry date; (b) the Guarantee does not stipulate an expiry date; (c) the Guarantee stipulates an expiry date but without a claim period within which the Beneficiary must submit a claim; or (d) the Guarantee may be early terminated upon the occurrence of certain events which are not readily ascertainable by the Bank. So long as the Bank remains liable under the Guarantee Instrument, it shall be entitled to enforce the Indemnity against the Instructing Party. 8. The interpretation by the Bank or the Correspondent of any term in notices or other documents presented under any Guarantee Instrument shall be conclusive and binding on the Instructing Party. 9. The Instructing Party agrees that the Bank or the Correspondent may, at its sole discretion and without consent from the Instructing Party, amend the terms and conditions of the Guarantee Instrument stated in this application and/or insert additional terms and conditions into the Guarantee Instrument as the Bank or the Correspondent thinks appropriate. The Bank or the Correspondent may, subject to the Beneficiary's consent, cancel the whole or any unused balance of the Guarantee Instrument prior to the stated expiry of the Guarantee Instrument. 10. Notwithstanding any instruction(s) stipulated in this application, the Bank may, at its sole discretion, name, select, request or instruct any Correspondent to issue the Guarantee. The Bank shall not be responsible or liable for any act, omission, loss or delay of forwarding documents or payments, default, error, negligence, suspension, insolvency or bankruptcy of any Correspondent notwithstanding that the Bank may choose such Correspondent. The Instructing Party acknowledges that the Bank may pay to or receive from any Correspondent charges, fees, rebates or other payments and the Bank shall not be liable to account for or disclose to the Instructing Party any profit or benefits derived by it. 11. The Instructing Party undertakes to examine the customer copy of all Guarantee Instruments to check their consistency with this application form and irrevocably agrees that failure to give a notice of objection about the contents of any Guarantee Instrument within 5 banking days after the customer copy of the Guarantee Instrument is sent to the Instructing Party shall be deemed to be its waiver of any rights to raise objections or pursue any remedies against the Bank in respect of the Guarantee Instrument. 12. The Instructing Party agrees and acknowledges that it is the sole responsibility of the Instructing Party to (i) ensure clarity, enforceability or effectiveness of any terms or requirements incorporated in any Guarantee Instrument; and (ii) comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding the underlying transaction to which the Guarantee Instrument relates and obtain all necessary documents and approvals from any governmental or regulatory bodies and produce such documents or approvals to the Bank upon request. The Bank is not responsible for advising and has no duty whatsoever to advise the Instructing Party on such issues or on any matter. The Bank shall not be liable to the Instructing Party for any direct, indirect, special or consequential loss or damage, costs, expenses or other claims for compensation whatsoever which may arise out of such issues, the Guarantee Instrument or the transactions pertaining to such Guarantee Instrument.

13. Where the Instructing Party requests that a Guarantee Instrument be governed by a system of law ("Foreign Law") other than Hong Kong law, the Instructing Party acknowledges that the Bank or the Correspondent is entitled to treat the Guarantee Instrument as continuing without expiry and may be called upon to perform and fulfill other obligations and liabilities ("Additional Obligations and Liabilities") which are implied under the Foreign Law, in addition to the Bank's or the Correspondent's payment obligations as expressly stipulated in the Guarantee Instrument as construed under Hong Kong law. The Instructing Party acknowledges and agrees that: (a) the Bank or the Correspondent may include such additional protective clauses in the Guarantee Instrument as it deems fit; (b) in determining whether or not to pay under the Guarantee Instrument, the Bank or the Correspondent may interpret its terms as if they were governed by Hong Kong law; and (c) the Bank shall be indemnified by the Instructing Party against all risks of whatever nature as a result of the Bank issuing, or procuring the issuance of, the Guarantee Instrument (including any Additional Obligations and Liabilities). 14. Where a Guarantee Instrument is transferable or assignable (whether expressly or impliedly), the Instructing Party acknowledges that the Beneficiary may assign or transfer the Guarantee Instrument or any benefit thereof to a third party without the prior consent of or notice to the Bank or the Correspondent. The Instructing Party agrees that the Bank shall be entitled to pay demands from any party who purports to be the assignee / transferee of the Guarantee Instrument without any obligation to verify or enquire whether such party is the legitimate assignee / transferee. 15. If a Guarantee Instrument provides to the effect that it may be transferable or assignable subject to the consent or agreement by the Instructing Party and/or the Applicant/Principal/Secured Party, the Instructing Party must first obtain the Bank's approval before it or the Applicant/Principal/Secured Party provides such consent or agreement to the transfer or assignment. 16. The Instructing Party acknowledges that liabilities of the Instructing Party and/or the Bank is not limited to the guarantee amount because the enforcement of the Guarantee or the Counter-guarantee may result in the Bank having to pay an amount in excess of the sum stated in the Guarantee. The Instructing Party agrees that it will keep the Bank harmless and fully indemnified against all the risks arising therefrom. 17. Where the Guarantee expressly provides that the guarantee amount may be reduced upon the occurrence of certain events, the Instructing Party agrees that the Bank or the Correspondent shall, notwithstanding such provision, have no obligation to effect such reduction unless it is approved by the Beneficiary in writing. 18. The Bank or the Correspondent is entitled, and the Instructing Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally authorise it, to act on any demand (whether by fax, courier or any other means) which the Bank or the Correspondent in its sole discretion believes emanate from the Beneficiary. The Instructing Party agrees that the Bank or the Correspondent has no obligation to (i) verify the identity or authority of the person or persons giving or purporting to give any demand purportedly made on behalf of the Beneficiary or the authenticity of any signature(s) on any demand; or (ii) seek the Instructing Party's prior approval before acting on such demand. So long as the Bank or the Correspondent acts in good faith, it shall not be liable to the Instructing Party or any party for acting on any demand, whether it emanates from unauthorised individuals or in any circumstances whatsoever. 19. The HSBC Group, including the Bank, follows (i) the legal requirements of the United Nations, the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States of America and all other jurisdictions that it operates in (collectively referred to as the "Applicable Laws"); and (ii) all regulations, sanction regimes, international guidance or procedures of relevant regulatory or industry body that may be applicable to the HSBC Group or any of its members (collectively, the "Compliance Rules"). The Bank may take or omit to take any action or may instruct (or be instructed by) any other member of the HSBC Group to take or to omit to take, any action which it or such other member, in its sole and absolute discretion, considers appropriate to take (a "Compliance Action") for the purpose of complying with its group policies, Applicable Laws and Compliance Rules, including preventing money laundering, terrorist financing or other crimes or the provision of financial and other services to any persons or entities or countries which may be subject to sanctions (each such person or entity is referred to as a "Sanctioned Party", and each such country is referred to as a "Sanctioned Country"). Such Compliance Action may include without limitation: (a) declining this application or refusing to handle or process, or refusing to effect payment in connection with, any Guarantee Instrument on the ground of, or as a result of, a Compliance Action or if any person or entity relating to any Guarantee Instrument or the related underlying transaction is a Sanctioned Party; (b) the interception and investigation of any payment messages and other information or communications sent to or by the Instructing Party or on the Instructing Party's behalf via the systems of the Bank or any other member of the HSBC Group; and (c) making further enquiries as to whether a name which might refer to a Sanctioned Party actually refers to that party and whether a transaction involves a Sanctioned Country. Neither the Bank nor any member of the HSBC Group will be liable for any loss (whether direct, indirect or consequential loss, including without limitation loss of profit or interest) or any damage suffered by the Instructing Party or any party arising out of: (i) any delay or failure by the Bank or any member of the HSBC Group in processing any payment messages or other information or communication or any request from the Instructing Party, or in performing any of its duties or other obligations in connection with any Guarantee Instrument, caused in whole or in part by any Compliance Action; or (ii) the exercise of any of the Bank's rights under or any action taken or omission made by the Bank pursuant to this clause. Neither the Bank nor any member of the HSBC Group warrants that any information on the Bank's systems relating to the Applicable Laws, Compliance Rules or any Sanctioned Party or Sanctioned Country is accurate, complete or up-to-date. 20. The Instructing Party represents and warrants to the Bank that to the best of its knowledge none of the parties referred to in this application or any Guarantee Instrument is or will be a Sanctioned Party and none of the Sanctioned Country is involved. The Instructing Party undertakes to indemnify the Bank against all costs, losses and damages (including claims from the Beneficiary and/or other parties) which the Bank may incur, sustain or suffer as a result of any breach of this Clause. 21. The Instructing Party further undertakes that it shall on demand indemnify the Bank and the Bank's delegate(s) against all liabilities, losses, payments, damages, demands, claims, expenses and costs (including legal fees on a full indemnity basis), proceedings or actions which the Bank or the Bank's delegate(s) may suffer or incur in connection with this application and any Guarantee Instrument. 22. If the Instructing Party includes two or more persons, the obligations and liabilities of these persons shall be joint and several. 23. The Bank's rights under this application shall be additional and without prejudice to its rights under any other agreements or general law. 24. This application is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Hong Kong SAR and the Instructing Party agrees to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Hong Kong courts.

FORM OF INTERCOMPANY NOTE

Dated: , 201

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, NORD ANGLIA EDUCATION FINANCE LLC (“Borrower”), NORD ANGLIA EDUCATION, INC. (“Parent”) and certain Subsidiaries of Parent (collectively, the “Group Members” and each, a “Group Member”) which is a party to this subordinated intercompany note (this “Promissory Note”) promises to pay to the order of such other Group Member as it makes loans to such Group Member (each Group Member which borrows money pursuant to this Promissory Note is referred to herein as a “Payor” and each Group Member which makes loans and advances pursuant to this Promissory Note is referred to herein as a “Payee”), on demand, in lawful money as may be agreed upon from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee, in immediately available funds and at the appropriate office of the Payee, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all loans and advances heretofore and hereafter made by such Payee to such Payor and any other Debt now or hereafter owing by such Payor to such Payee as shown either on Schedule A attached hereto (and any continuation thereof) or, at the option of the applicable Payee, in the books and records of such Payee. The failure to show any such Debt or any error in showing such Debt shall not affect the obligations of any Payor hereunder. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Credit and Guaranty Agreement dated as of March 31, 2014 (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Borrower, Parent, certain Subsidiaries of Parent, as Guarantors, the Lenders party thereto from time to time, HSBC BANK USA, N.A., as Term Administrative Agent and Primary Collateral Agent (the “Primary Collateral Agent”), HSBC BANK PLC, as Hungarian Collateral Agent, THE HONGKONG AND SHANGHAI BANKING CORPORATION LIMITED, as Revolving Facility Administrative Agent, and the other parties thereto.

The unpaid principal amount hereof from time to time outstanding shall bear interest at a rate equal to the rate as may be agreed upon in writing from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee. Interest shall be due and payable at such times as may be agreed upon from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee. Upon demand for payment of any principal amount hereof, accrued but unpaid interest on such principal amount shall also be due and payable. Interest shall be paid in any lawful currency as may be agreed upon by the relevant Payor and Payee and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year consisting of 365 days.

Each Payor and any endorser of this Promissory Note hereby waives presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights hereunder on the part of the holder hereof shall operate as a waiver of such rights.

This Promissory Note has been pledged by each Payee that is a Credit Party to the Primary Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for such Payee’s obligations, if any, under the Credit Documents to which such Payee is a party. Each Payor acknowledges and agrees that after the occurrence of an Enforcement Event (as defined in the

EXHIBIT J-1

Credit Agreement), the Primary Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties may exercise all the rights of each Payee that is a Credit Party under this Promissory Note and will not be subject to any abatement, reduction, recoupment, defense, setoff or counterclaim available to such Payor.

Each Payee agrees that any and all claims of such Payee against any Payor that is a Credit Party or any endorser of this Promissory Note, or against any of their respective properties, shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the Credit Agreement Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) until the Termination Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement); provided, that each Payor that is a Credit Party may make payments to the applicable Payee so long as no Enforcement Event shall have occurred; and provided, further, that all loans and advances made by a Payee pursuant to this Promissory Note shall be received by the applicable Payor subject to the provisions of the Credit Documents. Notwithstanding any right of any Payee to ask, demand, xxx for, take or receive any payment from any Payor, all rights, Liens and security interests of such Payee, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any Payor (whether constituting part of the security or collateral given to any Secured Party to secure payment of all or any part of the Credit Agreement Obligations or otherwise) shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights of the Secured Parties in such assets. Except as expressly permitted by the Credit Documents, the Payees shall have no right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon, or exercise any other remedy in respect of, any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until the Termination Date.

After the occurrence of an Enforcement Event, if all or any part of the assets of any Payor, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of any Payor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of any Payor is dissolved or if (except as expressly permitted by the Credit Documents) all or substantially all of the assets of any Payor are sold, then, and in any such event, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other investment property, or otherwise, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness of such Payor to any Payee that is a Credit Party (“Payor Debt”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Primary Collateral Agent for application to any of the Credit Agreement Obligations, due or to become due, until the Termination Date. After the occurrence of an Enforcement Event, each Payee that is a Credit Party irrevocably authorizes, empowers and appoints the Primary Collateral Agent as such Payee’s attorney-in-fact (which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable) to demand, xxx for, collect and receive every such payment or distribution and give acquittance therefor and to make and present for and on behalf of such Payee such proofs of claim and take such other action, in the Primary Collateral Agent’s own names or in the name of such Payee or otherwise, as the Primary Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the enforcement of this Promissory Note. After the occurrence of an Enforcement Event, each Payee that is a Credit Party also agrees to execute, verify, deliver and file any such proofs of claim in respect of the Payor Debt requested by the Primary Collateral Agent. After the occurrence of an Enforcement Event, the Primary Collateral Agent may vote such proofs of claim in any such proceeding (and the applicable Payee shall not be entitled to withdraw such vote), receive and collect any and all dividends or other payments or disbursements made on Payor Debt in whatever form the same may be paid or issued and apply the same on account of any of the

EXHIBIT J-2

Credit Agreement Obligations in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an Enforcement Event, should any payment, distribution, security or other investment property or instrument or any proceeds thereof be received by any Payee that is a Credit Party upon or with respect to Payor Debt owing to such Payee prior to the Termination Date, such Payee that is a Credit Party shall receive and hold the same for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Primary Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of such Payee where necessary or advisable in the Primary Collateral Agent’s judgment), for application to any of the Credit Agreement Obligations in accordance with the Credit Agreement, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be segregated from the other assets of such Payee for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Upon the occurrence of an Enforcement Event, if such Payee fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Primary Collateral Agent, the Primary Collateral Agent or any of its officers, employees or representatives are hereby irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Payee that is a Credit Party agrees that until the Termination Date, such Payee will not (i) assign or transfer, or agree to assign or transfer, to any Person (other than in favor of the Primary Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to any Collateral Document or otherwise) any claim such Payee has or may have against any Payor, (ii) upon the occurrence of an Enforcement Event, discount or extend the time for payment of any Payor Debt, or (iii) otherwise amend, modify, supplement, waive or fails to enforce any provision of this Promissory Note.

The Secured Parties shall be third party beneficiaries hereof and shall be entitled to enforce the subordination and other provisions hereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in any other Credit Document or in any such promissory note or other instrument, this Promissory Note shall not be deemed replaced, superseded or in any way modified by any promissory note or other instrument entered into on or after the date hereof which purports to create or evidence any loan or advance by any Group Member to any other Group Member.

THIS PROMISSORY NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

From time to time after the date hereof, additional Subsidiaries of the Group Members may become parties hereto by executing a counterpart signature page to this Promissory Note (each additional Subsidiary, an “Additional Payor”). Upon delivery of such counterpart signature page to the Payees, notice of which is hereby waived by the other Payors, each Additional Payor shall be a Payor and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Payor were an original signatory hereof. Each Payor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Payor hereunder. This Promissory Note shall be fully effective as to any Payor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Payor hereunder.

EXHIBIT J-3

This Promissory Note may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
