ARTICLE II

THE CREDITS

Section 2.01. Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth herein:

(a) Each (i) Dollar Term Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make available in Dollars to the Borrower on the Closing Date the Dollar Term Loans for which such Dollar Term Lender has a Dollar Term Loan Commitment ,and (ii) Euro Term Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make available in Euros to the Borrower on the Closing Date the Euro Term Loans for which such Euro Term Lender has a Euro Term Loan Commitment. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(b) Each Revolving Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make available in the applicable Currency to the Borrower at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period the Revolving Loans for which such Revolving Lender has a Revolving Commitment; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate amount in Dollars or Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount in Alternative Currencies, as the case may be, of the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, together with such Revolving Lender’s pro rata share of the aggregate Stated Amount of L/C Outstandings, under the Revolving Loan Facilities made by any Revolving Lender shall not exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment and any such Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit shall be available, at the election of the Borrower, in Dollars, Euros and Alternative Currencies and (ii) no Revolving Lender shall be obligated or permitted to make Revolving Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency to the extent that, immediately following the making of such Revolving Loans, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies would exceed the Revolving Facility Alternative Currency Sublimit. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans made available hereunder.

Section 2.02. Loans. (a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class, Facility, Currency and Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class and Facility; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Swingline Loans and Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.02(f), the Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i)(A) in the case of a Loan denominated in Dollars, an integral multiple of U.S.$500,000 and not less than U.S.$5,000,000, (B) in the case of a Loan denominated in Euros, an integral multiple of €500,000 and not less than €5,000,000 and (C) in the case of a Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency other than Euros, an integral multiple of a Dollar Equivalent of U.S.$500,000 and not less than a Dollar Equivalent of U.S.$5,000,000, or (ii) in each case, equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.

(b) Subject to Sections 2.08 and 2.15, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Alternative Rate Loans or as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.03 or Section 2.10; provided that a Funding Indemnity shall have been given by the Borrower with respect to all Alternative Rate Borrowings to be made on the Closing Date. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than ten Alternative Rate Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any time. For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence or end on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

(c) Each Lender shall make each Term Loan to be made by it hereunder in the applicable Currency on the Closing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account in New York City (or such other location from time to time specified by the Administrative Agent) as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to

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

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

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

(f) If the applicable Issuing Bank shall not have received from the Borrower the payment required to be made by Section 2.23(g) with respect to a Letter of Credit within the time specified in such Section (each such amount until repaid, an “Unpaid Drawing”), such Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the L/C Disbursement and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Revolving Lender of such L/C Disbursement and its Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof. Each applicable Revolving Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on such date (or, if such Revolving Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on any day, not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the immediately following Business Day), and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to such Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from the applicable Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.23(g) prior to the time that any Revolving Lender makes any payment pursuant to this paragraph; any such amounts received by

the Administrative Agent thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Revolving Lenders that shall have made such payments and to the applicable Issuing Bank, as their interests may appear. If any Revolving Lender shall not have made funds in an amount equal to its applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage of such L/C Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with this paragraph to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans or Alternative Rate Revolving Loans (with an Interest Period of one month), as the case may be, and (ii) in the case of such Lender, (x) for ABR Revolving Loans, the Base Rate, and (y) for Alternative Rate Revolving Loans (with an Interest Period of one month), the Adjusted Interbank Offered Rate.

(g) Each Lender may, at its option, make any Loan available to the Borrower by causing any foreign or domestic branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided, however, that (i) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or result in an increase in amounts payable by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.20 or any other provision hereof, and (ii) nothing in this Section 2.02(g) shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation or warranty by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

Section 2.03. Borrowing Procedure. In order to request a Borrowing (other than a Swingline Loan or a deemed Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(f), as to which this Section 2.03 shall not apply), the Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Borrowing Request (a) in the case of an Alternative Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) three Business Days before a proposed Borrowing (which Borrowing Request, in the case of any proposed Alternative Rate Borrowings to be made on the Closing Date, (x) may be delivered not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) two Business Days before the Closing Date and (y) shall be accompanied by a Funding Indemnity), and (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) one Business Day before a proposed Borrowing. Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable, shall be signed by or on behalf of the Borrower and shall specify the following information: (i) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Term Borrowing or a Revolving Borrowing, provided that such Class is then available hereunder; (ii) the aggregate principal amount of such Borrowing, provided that in no event shall the aggregate principal amount of such Borrowing exceed the respective Commitment amounts set forth on Schedule 2.01; (iii) the Currency in which such Borrowing is to be made, which shall be Dollars or Euro, or, in the case of a Revolving Borrowing only, another Alternative Currency; provided that in no event shall the Borrower request that a Revolving Borrowing be denominated in an Alternative Currency if, immediately following the making of such Borrowing, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies would exceed the Revolving Facility Alternative Currency Sublimit; (iv) whether such Borrowing is to be an Alternative Rate Borrowing or, if applicable, an ABR Borrowing (it being understood that no Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency will be an ABR Borrowing), and, for each Alternative Rate Borrowing, the initial Interest Period with respect to such Borrowing; (v) the date of such

Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day); and (vi) the number and location of the account to which funds are to be disbursed (which shall be an account that complies with the requirements of Section 2.02(c)); provided, however, that, notwithstanding any contrary specification in any Borrowing Request, each requested Borrowing shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 2.02. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice and such Borrowing is a Revolving Loan (x) for a Borrowing in Dollars, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing and (y) for a Borrowing in an Alternative Currency, then the requested Borrowing shall be an Alternative Rate Borrowing (with an Interest Period of one month). If no Interest Period with respect to any Alternative Rate Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Interest Periods for any Revolving Alternative Rate Borrowings from and after the Closing Date may be for such duration or such durations as the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may reasonably select in their sole discretion in order to confirm the effectivness of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given in accordance with this Section 2.03 (and the contents thereof), and of each Lender’s portion of the requested Borrowing.

Section 2.04. Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender to the Borrower from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Borrower, the Class, Currency and Type thereof and, with respect to any Alternative Rate Loan, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable thereon from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent in prepayment or repayment thereof and each Lender’s share of such prepayment or repayment.

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

(d) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it hereunder to the Borrower be evidenced by a customary promissory note, and in such event, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns in such form as shall be reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event any Lender shall request and receive such a promissory note, the interests represented by such note shall at all times (including after any assignment of all or part of such interests pursuant to Section 9.04) be

represented by one or more promissory notes payable to the payee named therein or its registered assigns.

Section 2.05. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Revolving Lender (in each case pro rata according to the respective Revolving Commitments of all such Lenders) in Dollars, through the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.19, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year and on each date on which any such Revolving Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of such Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the date hereof or ending with the Revolving Facility Maturity Date or the date on which such Revolving Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated). All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. For purposes of calculating Commitment Fees only, no portion of the Revolving Commitments shall be deemed utilized as a result of outstanding Swingline Loans. The Commitment Fee due to each Revolving Lender in respect of its Revolving Commitment shall commence to accrue on the date hereof and shall cease to accrue on the date on which such Revolving Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, for its own account, the fees in the amounts and at the times from time to time agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent Fees”), including the fees set forth in any separate letter agreement executed and delivered by the Borrower and to which the Administrative Agent is a party (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Fee Letter”) in accordance with the terms thereof, as and when the same are due and payable pursuant to the terms of such Fee Letter.

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to each Revolving Lender, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which such Revolving Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein (each, an “L/C Fee Payment Date”) a fee in Dollars, (an “L/C Participation Fee”), calculated on such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the daily aggregate L/C Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements which are earning interim interest pursuant to Section 2.23(j)) during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the date hereof or ending with the Revolving Facility Maturity Date or the date on which all Letters of Credit have been cancelled or have expired and the Revolving Commitments of all Revolving Lenders shall have been terminated) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate on Revolving Borrowings comprised of Alternative Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.06, and (ii) to the applicable Issuing Bank in Dollars a fronting fee (or, in the case of a Bank Guarantee, such other fee as agreed to between the Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank), which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the drawable amount of such Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date of such Letter of Credit, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal, extension or administration of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of (or at the request of) the Borrower or processing of drawings thereunder (the fees in this clause (ii), collectively, the

“Issuing Bank Fees”). All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

(d) [Reserved].

(e) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds and in the Currencies as specified, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that the Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to each applicable Issuing Bank. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances except, subject to the next succeeding sentence, in the event of a miscalculation of the fees owed by the Borrower hereunder. Each calculation by the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.05 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to Section 2.05(a) or Section 2.05(c) (without prejudice to the rights of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees), provided that (a) to the extent that all or a portion of the L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.26(b), such fees owing pursuant to Section 2.05(c) that would have accrued for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments, and (b) to the extent that all or any portion of such L/C Exposure cannot be so reallocated, such fees will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to each applicable Issuing Bank (and the pro rata payment provisions of Section 7.02 will automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section).

Section 2.06. Interest on Loans. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing and each Swingline Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when the Base Rate is determined by reference to the Prime Rate, and over a year of 360 days at all other times) at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, (i) the Loans comprising each Alternative Rate Borrowing (other than an Alternative Rate Borrowing denominated in Pounds Sterling) shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Interbank Offered Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate and (ii) the Loans comprising each Alternative Rate Borrowing denominated in Pounds Sterling shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be) at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Interbank Offered Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(c) (i) Interest on each Loan shall be payable on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such Loan except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(ii) The applicable Base Rate or Adjusted Interbank Offered Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be

determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Unpaid accrued interest (including Default Interest on overdue amounts) will not be compounded.

Section 2.07. Default Interest. If the Borrower shall default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount due hereunder or under any other Loan Document, by acceleration or otherwise, the Borrower shall on demand from time to time pay interest, to the extent permitted by law, on such defaulted amount to but excluding the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) (a) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, at the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.06 plus 2.00% per annum, and (b) in all other cases, at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when determined by reference to the Prime Rate and over a year of 360 days at all other times) equal to the rate that would be applicable to an ABR Dollar Term Loan plus 2.00%.

Section 2.08. Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for an Alternative Rate Borrowing (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Adjusted Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest Period, or (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility that the Adjusted Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or fax notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the Administrative Agent shall have advised the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (which it shall do as promptly as practicable when such circumstances shall no longer exist) with respect to the affected Facility, (i) any request by the Borrower for an Alternative Rate Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.10 (x) in respect of a Revolving Loan denominated in Dollars shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing, and (y) in respect of a Revolving Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be deemed to be a request for a Borrowing at an interest rate per annum on each Lender’s share of such Alternative Rate Borrowing which is equal to the COF Rate and (ii) any Interest Period election that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, an Alternative Rate Borrowing denominated in the affected Alternative Currency with respect to the affected Facility shall be ineffective. Each determination by the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.08 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Alternative Rate Loans denominated in a particular Alternative Currency affected by the circumstances described in this Section, as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than three Business Days after the giving of the required notice by the Administrative Agent with respect to such circumstances), the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the affected Lenders) shall negotiate with the Borrower in good faith in order to ascertain whether a substitute interest rate (a “Substitute Rate”) may be agreed upon for the maintaining of existing Alternative Rate Loans denominated

in such Alternative Currency. If a Substitute Rate is agreed upon by the Borrower and any affected Lenders, such Substitute Rate shall apply with respect to such affected Lenders. To the extent that a Substitute Rate is not so agreed upon by the Borrower and any of the affected Lenders within such time, each Alternative Rate Loan of such affected Lender denominated in the affected Alternative Currency shall thereafter bear interest at the COF Rate.

Section 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, (i) the unused Term Loan Commitments shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Closing Date, (ii) the L/C Commitment shall automatically terminate on the L/C Maturity Date and (iii) the Revolving Commitments and Swingline Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date.

(b) Upon not less than one Business Day’s prior irrevocable written or fax notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify each of the Revolving Lenders), the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Revolving Commitments; provided, however, that the Total Revolving Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the Aggregate Revolving Exposure then in effect; provided further that each partial permanent reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be an amount that is an integral multiple of the Reduction Multiple and not less than the Reduction Minimum.

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

Section 2.10. Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings. The Borrower shall have the right at any time upon prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, pursuant to a Continuation/Conversion Notice, (a) no later than 12:00 noon (New York time) three Business Days prior to conversion, to convert any Alternative Rate Borrowing of Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars into an ABR Borrowing, (b) no later than 12:00 noon (New York time) three Business Days prior to conversion, to convert any ABR Borrowing into an Alternative Rate Borrowing, (c) not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) three Business Days prior to continuation, to continue any Alternative Rate Borrowing as an Alternative Rate Borrowing for an additional Interest Period of the same tenor, and (d) not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) three Business Days prior to conversion, to convert the Interest Period with respect to any Alternative Rate Borrowing to another permissible Interest Period, subject in each case to the following:

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

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

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

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

(v) any portion of a Borrowing maturing or required to be paid in less than one month may not be continued as an Alternative Rate Borrowing with an Interest Period in excess of one month;

(vi) any portion of an Alternative Rate Borrowing in respect of Revolving Loans that cannot be converted into or continued as an Alternative Rate Borrowing by reason of the immediately preceding clause shall be automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing into (A) an ABR Borrowing for any such Borrowing in Dollars, or (B) an Alternative Rate Borrowing with a one-month Interest Period for any such Borrowing in an Alternative Currency; and

(vii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, no outstanding Loan denominated in Dollars may be converted into, or continued as, an Alternative Rate Loan.

Each notice pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and specify (w) the identity and amount of the Borrowing requested to be converted or continued, (x) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as an Alternative Rate Borrowing or, if applicable, an ABR Borrowing, (y) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (z) if such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as an Alternative Rate Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any Continuation/Conversion Notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as an Alternative Rate Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.10 and of each Lender’s portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If notice shall not have been given in accordance with this Section 2.10 to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and notice shall not otherwise have been given in accordance with this Section 2.10 to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be converted or continued into (A) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, an ABR Borrowing, and (B) in the case of Loans

denominated in an Alternative Currency, an Alternative Rate Borrowing with a one-month Interest Period.

For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that any conversion (or continuation) of Borrowings pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall not constitute a new Loan or the novation of an existing Loan but rather a conversion of such Loan to a different Type or continuation of such Loan for a new Interest Period.

Section 2.11. Repayment of Borrowings. (a) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the applicable Term Lenders on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the last Business Day of September 30, 2017, an aggregate principal amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans outstanding on the Closing Date (which payments shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth in Section 2.12 or 2.13, as applicable). To the extent not previously paid, all outstanding Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Term Facility Maturity Date.

(b) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to each Revolving Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date, each then outstanding Revolving Loan made by such Revolving Lender, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to but excluding the date of payment, in the Currency in which such Revolving Loan was originally borrowed.

(c) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan made to the Borrower on the earlier of (i) ten Business Days after the making of such Swingline Loan and (ii) the Revolving Facility Maturity Date. On the date any Borrowing is made under the Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.

(d) In the event that any Incremental Term Loans are made, the Borrower shall repay Borrowings consisting of Incremental Term Loans on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment, and in the event that any Other Loans are made, the Borrower shall repay Borrowings consisting of Other Loans on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the applicable Refinancing Amendment.

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

Section 2.12. Voluntary Prepayments. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part but in each case in the Currency of the original Borrowing, upon at least three Business Days’ prior written notice in the case of Alternative Rate Loans, or upon at least one Business Day’s prior written notice in the case of ABR Loans, to the Administrative Agent before 12:00 noon (New York time) (which will promptly notify each affected Lender); provided, however, that each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of the Reduction Multiple and not less than the Reduction Minimum.

(b) Voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans and the Incremental Term Loans shall be applied to each Class of the outstanding Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans as directed by the Borrower and against the remaining scheduled installments of principal in respect of such Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans in the manner specified by the Borrower or, if not so specified on or prior to the date of such voluntary prepayment, in direct order of maturity.

(c) Each notice of prepayment shall be in the form of a Prepayment Notice and shall specify the prepayment date (which shall be a Business Day) and the principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein. All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be subject to Section 2.12(d) and 2.16, but otherwise without any premium or penalty. All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment.

(d) If the Borrower (i) prepays, refinances, substitutes, converts or replaces any Term Loans in connection with a Repricing Transaction or (ii) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, in each case, on or prior to the date that is six months after of the Closing Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the Lenders holding Term Loans immediately prior to the consummation of such Repricing Transaction (including each Lender holding Term Loans immediately prior to the consummation of such Repricing Transaction that is a Non-Consenting Lender with respect to such Repricing Transaction and is replaced pursuant to Section 2.21), (A) in the case of clause (i), a repricing premium equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so prepaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced and (B) in the case of clause (ii), a fee equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment. Such amounts (as applicable, the “Repricing Premium”) shall be due and payable on the date of effectiveness of the applicable Repricing Transaction.

Section 2.13. Mandatory Prepayments. (a) In the event of any termination of all the Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay each outstanding Swingline Loan and Revolving Borrowing in the Currency of the original Borrowing, replace or Cash Collateralize each outstanding Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the L/C Exposure in respect of each such Letter of Credit. If on any date (whether as a result of any partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments, currency fluctuations or otherwise) the Aggregate Revolving Exposure would exceed 100% (or, if solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of Currencies, 105%) of the Total Revolving Commitments then available to the Borrower, then the Borrower shall, within two Business Days after the earlier of (i) the receipt of a written request from the Administrative Agent and (ii) a Responsible Officer becoming aware of such event, forthwith repay or prepay Revolving Borrowings or Swingline Loans (or a combination thereof) and/or Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(b) Not later than the fifth Business Day following the receipt (which in the case of an escrow closing means the date of release of funds from such escrow) of Net Cash

Proceeds (other than any Excluded Proceeds, except as provided in the definition thereof) in respect of any Asset Sale (other than any Asset Sale the proceeds of which, when taken together with the proceeds of all other Asset Sales during the then current fiscal year of Holdings, do not exceed U.S.$30,000,000) by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or the occurrence of any Recovery Event relating to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, the Borrower shall apply 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by Holdings or such Subsidiary with respect thereto to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e); provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, elect to apply any such Net Cash Proceeds of any such Asset Sale of or Recovery Event on a pro rata basis to (x) prepay outstanding Term Loans and (y) prepay, or offer to repurchase, any outstanding Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt and that (1) to the extent permitted hereunder (including under Section 2.25 and the definition of “Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness”), by its terms expressly requires the Borrower to prepay (or offer to repurchase) such Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt with such proceeds and (2) is secured by the assets subject to such Asset Sale or Recovery Event; it being understood that any such proceeds not so applied to repay or repurchase such Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt (due to the declination of such offer to repurchase by the holders thereof or for any other reason) shall be applied to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e).

(c) In the event that Holdings or any Subsidiary shall receive Net Cash Proceeds (other than any Excluded Proceeds, except as provided in the definition thereof) from the issuance or other incurrence of Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 6.01 (but excluding Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of the Term Loans)), the Borrower shall, substantially simultaneously with (and in any event not later than the first Business Day following) the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by Holdings or such Subsidiary, apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds therefrom to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e).

(d) Not later than five Business Days after the date on which financial statements have been (or were required to be) delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(a) in respect of any Excess Cash Flow Period (the “ECF Prepayment Deadline”), the Borrower shall calculate Excess Cash Flow for such Excess Cash Flow Period and shall apply an amount equal to (i) the Required Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow minus (ii) U.S.$10,000,000 minus (iii) the amount of any voluntary prepayments (other than voluntary prepayments funded by the incurrence of Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness that is revolving in nature) during such Excess Cash Flow Period (without duplication of any such prepayment amounts deducted from Excess Cash Flow for the immediately preceding Excess Cash Flow Period) or, at the election of the Borrower, after such Excess Cash Flow Period and prior to such ECF Prepayment Deadline) of (A) Term Loans or any Incremental Term Loans, (B) Revolving Loans or any Incremental Revolving Loans (to the extent the commitments in respect thereof are permanently reduced by the amount of such prepayments), and (C) any Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt, and any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of any of the foregoing, in each case, to the extent permitted hereunder, to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e).

(e) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments of Term Loans made pursuant to clauses (b) through (d) of this Section shall be applied to prepay the Term Loans then outstanding against the remaining scheduled installments of principal in respect of such Term Loans as directed by the Borrower (and absent such direction, in direct order of maturity).

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.13 to the contrary, any Lender may elect, by written notice to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time), at least two Business Days prior to the required prepayment date, to decline all or any portion of any mandatory prepayment of its Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13 (other than any mandatory prepayment with proceeds of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness), in which case the aggregate amount of the prepayment that would have been applied to prepay Term Loans but was so declined shall be retained by the Borrower.

(g) The Borrower shall (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under this Section 2.13, a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of Holdings setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment and, if applicable, the amount being prepaid (or offered) to holders of Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt that is in the form of notes pursuant to the proviso to Section 2.13(b), and (ii) give to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly give to each Lender), to the extent practicable, at least three Business Days’ prior written notice of such prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall be in the form of a Prepayment Notice and shall specify the prepayment date, the Type and Class of each Loan being prepaid and the principal amount and Currency of each Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid. All prepayments of Borrowings pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be subject to Section 2.16 and, in the case of Section 2.13(c), any applicable Repricing Premium pursuant to Section 2.12(d), but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the making of any mandatory prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.13 operate as a cure, or result in a waiver, of any Default or Event of Default.

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

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement to the extent reflected in the Adjusted Interbank Offered Rate), or

(ii) impose on any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, or

(iii) subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Loan, this Agreement or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, or change the

basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes covered by Section 2.20 and Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes),

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or purchasing or maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank to be material, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, upon demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or such Issuing Bank’s Parent Company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit purchased by, such Lender or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank to a level below that which such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or such Issuing Bank’s Parent Company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or such Issuing Bank’s Parent Company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity requirements) by an amount deemed by such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank to be material, then from time to time the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

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

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to

compensate any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) above for increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to such request if such Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank knew or could reasonably have been expected to know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the fact that such circumstances would result in a claim for increased compensation by reason of such increased costs or reductions; provided further that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 180-day period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or been imposed; provided that such amounts shall only be payable by the Borrower to the applicable Lender under this Section 2.14 so long as it is such Lender’s general policy or practice to demand compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other financing agreements.

(e) The Borrower shall not be obligated to make any payments under this Section 2.14 solely as a result of a Lender having any direct or indirect equity interest in any member of the Consolidated Group.

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

(i) such Lender may declare that Alternative Rate Loans denominated in such Currency will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional Interest Periods and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Alternative Rate Loans), whereupon any request for an Alternative Rate Borrowing denominated in such Currency (or to convert an ABR Borrowing to an Alternative Rate Borrowing or to continue an Alternative Rate Borrowing for an additional Interest Period) shall, (x) in the case of a Loan denominated in Dollars as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (or a request to continue an ABR Loan as such or to convert an Alternative Rate Loan into an ABR Loan), or (y) in the case of a Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency, as applicable, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for a COF Rate Loan; and

(ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Alternative Rate Loans made by it that are denominated in Euros, another Alternative Currency or Dollars be converted to ABR Loans or COF Rate Loans, as applicable, in which event all such Alternative Rate Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans or COF Rate Loans, as applicable, as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below.

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Alternative Rate

Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Alternative Rate Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans or COF Rate Loans, as applicable, made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Alternative Rate Loans. Any such conversion of an Alternative Rate Loan under (i) above shall be subject to Section 2.16.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Loans denominated in a particular Currency affected by the circumstances described in this Section, as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than three Business Days after the giving of the required notice by the Administrative Agent with respect to such circumstances), the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the affected Lenders) shall negotiate with the Borrower in good faith in order to ascertain whether a Substitute Rate may be agreed upon for the maintaining of existing Loans denominated in such Currency. If a Substitute Rate is agreed upon by the Borrower and any of the affected Lenders, such Substitute Rate shall apply with respect to the Loans of such Lenders denominated in such Currency. To the extent that a Substitute Rate is not so agreed upon by the Borrower with any affected Lenders within such time, each Alternative Rate Loan of such affected Lenders denominated in such Currency shall thereafter bear interest at the COF Rate.

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

Section 2.16. Indemnity. The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss or expense (but not loss of profit or margin) that such Lender may sustain or incur in connection with any Loan made to the Borrower as a consequence of (a) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such Lender receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any Alternative Rate Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion of any Alternative Rate Loan to an ABR Loan, COF Rate Loan or Alternative Rate Loan, or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Alternative Rate Loan, in each case other than on the last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (iii) any Alternative Rate Loan to be made by such Lender (including any Alternative Rate Loan to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) not being made after notice of such Loan shall have been given by Borrower hereunder, or (iv) an assignment pursuant to Section 2.21 (any of the events referred to in this clause (a) being called a “Breakage Event”), or (b) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment required to be made hereunder. In the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its actual cost of obtaining funds for the Alternative Rate Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying the funds released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period (but in no event will such loss include loss of profit or margin). A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.17. Pro Rata Treatment. Except as provided below in this Section 2.17 with respect to Swingline Loans, as required under Section 2.15, as provided in Section 9.04(k) or as otherwise provided elsewhere in this Agreement, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of the Commitment Fees, each reduction of the Revolving Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans and L/C Outstandings). For purposes of determining the available Revolving Commitments of the Lenders at any time, each outstanding Swingline Loan shall be deemed to have utilized the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders which shall not have made Swingline Loans) pro rata in accordance with such respective Revolving Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount.

Section 2.18. Sharing. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, with respect to any Facility, each Lender participating therein agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise (except pursuant to Section 2.21 or Section 9.04), or by any other enforcement means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Loan or Loans or L/C Disbursement as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements of any other Lender, it shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Loans and L/C Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans and L/C Exposure and participations in Loans and L/C Exposure held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposures then outstanding as the principal amount of its Loans and L/C Exposure prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposures outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.18 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest. The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan or L/C Disbursement deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to the Borrower in the amount of such participation. After the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default, any such payment shall be applied in a manner consistent with Section 7.02, mutatis mutandis.

Section 2.19. Payments. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Loan or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the date when due in immediately available funds in the applicable Currency specified herein, without setoff, defense or counterclaim. Each such payment (other than (x) Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to each applicable Issuing Bank and (y) principal of and interest on Swingline Loans, which shall be paid directly to the Swingline Lender except as otherwise provided in Section 2.22(e)) shall be made (A) in the case of amounts payable in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent at Barclays Bank PLC, Loan Operations, Xxxxxxx X’Xxxxxx, Attn: Agency Services, Fax: x0-000-000-0000, Email: xxxxxxxxxxxx0@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx, Tel.: x0-000-000-0000, and (B) in the case of amounts payable in an Alternative Currency, in immediately available funds at the notice address set forth above or at such other notice address as the Administrative Agent shall specify for such purpose by notice to the Borrower. All payments hereunder and under each other Loan Document shall be made (i) in the case of the principal of and interest on each Loan, in the Currency in which such Loan is denominated, (ii) in the case of reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, in the Currency in which the Stated Amount thereof is denominated, (iii) in the case of any indemnification or expense reimbursement payment, in Dollars or an Alternative Currency, as requested by the person entitled to receive such payment, or (iv) in all other cases, in Dollars, in each case except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on such day) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or Fees ratably to the Lenders entitled thereto.

(b) Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day at the Administrative Agent’s discretion. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.

Section 2.20. Taxes. (a) Except as required by applicable law, all payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, under the Fee Letter) shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes. If any Indemnified Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder by the Borrower, or if the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender is required to make any deduction or payment in respect thereof, the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender receives (after payment of all Indemnified Taxes, including on additional amounts paid under this Section 2.20(a)) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement. Whenever any Taxes are payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.20(a), as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of such Issuing Bank or

such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt (or other evidence reasonably acceptable to such Lender or the Administrative Agent) received by the Borrower showing payment thereof.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but without duplication of any amount payable pursuant to Section 2.20, if any Loan Party is required to withhold Indemnified Taxes from amounts payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender under any Security Document executed in connection herewith, or the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender is required to deduct the same, the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as applicable, shall be increased to the extent necessary so that such Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, receives (after payment of all Indemnified Taxes, including on additional amounts paid under this Section 2.20(a)(ii)), interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder in an amount equal to what it would have received had the payment not been subject to such withholding or deduction. When Indemnified Taxes are payable by any Loan Party, as promptly as possible thereafter such Loan Party shall send to the Administrative Agent on its own account or for the account of the Collateral Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt (or other evidence reasonably acceptable to such Lender) received by such Loan Party showing payment thereof. If (a) any Loan Party fails to pay any such Indemnified Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, or (b) the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes in respect of which any Loan Party would be required to pay increased amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20, the Borrower shall cause such Loan Party to indemnify the Agents, any applicable Issuing Bank and any applicable Lender for such Indemnified Taxes, and any incremental Taxes, interest, costs or penalties that may become payable by the Agents, any applicable Issuing Bank and any applicable Lender as a result of any such failure or requirement. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within 15 days from the date any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates makes written demand thereof.

(c) If any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, receives a refund, the benefit of a credit, relief or remission (a “Refund”) of a Tax for which a payment has been made by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, which Refund in the good faith judgment of such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is attributable to such payment made by the Borrower, then such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall reimburse the Borrower for such amount as such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, determines in its absolute discretion to be the proportion of the Refund as will leave such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after such reimbursement, in no better or worse position than it would have been in if the payment had not been required. The Borrower agrees that if it receives a reimbursement under this paragraph (c), upon request, it will repay the amount of such reimbursement, together with penalties, interest and any other charges due, to the relevant Governmental Authorities in connection with such Refund, in the event a Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent is required to repay such Refund to the relevant Governmental Authorities. A Lender, an Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent

shall claim any Refund that it determines in its absolute discretion is available to it, unless it concludes in its reasonable discretion that it would be adversely affected by making such a claim, and shall make the sole determination of the date on which such Refund is received. Neither any Lender, any Issuing Bank nor the Administrative Agent shall be obliged to disclose any information regarding its tax affairs or computations to the Borrower in connection with this paragraph (c) or any other provision of this Section 2.20.

(d) Any Lender or Issuing Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender or Issuing Bank, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender or Issuing Bank 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 shall not be required if in the relevant Lender’s or relevant Issuing Bank’s, as applicable, reasonable judgment such completion, execution, or submission would subject such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender or such Issuing Bank.

(e) If a payment made to a Lender or Issuing Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or Issuing Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Tax Code, as applicable), such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Tax Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender or such Issuing Bank has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for the purposes of this Section 2.20(e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Original Closing Date.

(f) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.20 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the Termination Date.

(g) Solely for purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the First Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower and the

Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Credit Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

Section 2.21. Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate. (a) In the event (i) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15, (iii) any affected Lender pursuant to Section 2.08 does not agree to a Substitute Rate pursuant to Section 2.08 that is approved by the Required Facility Lenders, (iv) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.20, (v) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or (vi) any Lender whose consent is so required (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) does not consent to a proposed amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement requested by the Borrower, which requires the consent of all of the affected Lenders or all of the Lenders under any Facility to become effective (and which is approved by at least the Required Lenders or the Required Facility Lenders, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent), then, so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)), upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with, and subject to the restrictions contained in and consents required by, Section 9.04), all or any portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such assigned interests, rights and obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (y) solely with respect to replacements of Lenders pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Section 2.21(a), the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, of each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, and (z) the Borrower, or such assignee shall have paid to the affected Lender or Issuing Bank in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans or L/C Disbursements of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, respectively, plus all Fees and other amounts accrued for the account of such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (including any amounts under Section 2.12(d), Section 2.14, Section 2.16 and Section 2.20); provided further that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or notice under Section 2.15 or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, cease to cause such Lender or such Issuing Bank to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.15, or cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 2.20, as the case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender or such Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (b) below), or if such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall waive its right to claim further compensation under Section 2.14 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall withdraw its notice under Section 2.15 or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.20 in respect of such circumstances or event, as the case may be, then such Lender or

such Issuing Bank shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder. In connection with any such replacement under clause (v) or (vi) of this Section, if the Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement within a period of time deemed reasonable by the Administrative Agent after the later of (A) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation, and (B) the date on which the Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender receives all payments described in clause (z) of the first proviso to the preceding sentence, then such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender. Each Lender hereby grants to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender that may be necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in respect of the circumstances contemplated by this Section 2.21.

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

Section 2.22. Swingline Loans. (a) Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Swingline Lender agrees to make loans to the Borrower in Dollars (“Swingline Loans”) at any time and from time to time on and after the Closing Date and until the earlier of the Revolving Facility Maturity Date and the termination of the applicable Swingline Commitment in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate outstanding principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the Swingline Exposure exceeding the Swingline Commitment or (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Exposure exceeding the aggregate Revolving Commitments. Each Swingline Loan shall be in a principal amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000. The Swingline Commitment may be terminated or reduced from time to time as provided herein.

Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein.

(b) Swingline Loans. The Borrower shall notify the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent in writing not later than 9:00 a.m. (New York time), on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Such notice shall be delivered on a Business Day, shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and shall specify the requested funding date (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of such Swingline Loan and the wire transfer instructions for the account of the Borrower to which the proceeds of such Swingline Loan should be transferred. The Swingline Lender shall promptly make each Swingline Loan by wire transfer to the account specified by the Borrower in such request.

(c) Prepayment. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part and without premium or penalty, upon giving written or fax notice (in the form of a Prepayment Notice) to the Swingline Lender and to the Administrative Agent before 1:00 p.m. (New York time), on the date of prepayment at the Swingline Lender’s address for notices specified herein.

(d) Interest. Each Swingline Loan shall be deemed to be an ABR Loan and, subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, shall bear interest at the rate provided in Section 2.06(a). Interest on each Swingline Loan shall be payable to the Administrative Agent on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such Swingline Loan except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(e) Participations. By written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time), on any Business Day the Swingline Lender may require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Any such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which such Revolving Lenders will participate. The Administrative Agent will, promptly upon receipt of such notice, give notice to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer in immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02(c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts

received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower (or other party liable for obligations of the Borrower) of any default in the payment thereof.

Section 2.23. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Borrower, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period, may request that an Issuing Bank issue for its account a standby letter of credit, a trade letter of credit or a bank guarantee, and the applicable Issuing Bank shall continue any Existing Letters of Credit; provided that each such instrument shall be in such form as may be approved by the Issuing Bank in its reasonable discretion.

(b) Requirements. (i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) no Letter of Credit shall be issued or continued, as applicable, that would exceed the applicable L/C Commitment then in effect, (B) no Letter of Credit shall be issued or continued, as applicable, by the Issuing Bank that would exceed the Issuing Bank Sublimit then in effect (it being understood and agreed that any Issuing Bank may issue Letters of Credit (including the Existing Letters of Credit) in excess of such Issuing Bank’s respective Issuing Bank Sublimit in its sole discretion upon request of the Borrower, (C) no Letter of Credit shall be issued or continued, as applicable, that would cause the aggregate amount of the Lenders’ Revolving Exposures at such time to exceed the Total Revolving Commitments then available to the Borrower, (D) each Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date that complies with the provisions set forth in clause (e) of this Section, (E) each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or in an Alternative Currency, (F) no Letter of Credit shall be issued or continued, as applicable, if it would be illegal under any applicable law for the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit to have a Letter of Credit issued in its favor, (G) no Letter of Credit shall be issued by any Issuing Bank after it has received a written notice from the Borrower or the Administrative Agent stating that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing until such time as such Issuing Bank shall have received a written notice of (x) rescission of such notice from the party or parties originally delivering such notice or (y) the waiver of such Default or Event of Default in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.08 and (H) each Letter of Credit shall be issued in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank, and any such form may be deemed reasonably acceptable if it complies with the standard policies and other operating procedures of such Issuing Bank as may be implemented, at the sole discretion of the Issuing Bank, from time to time.

(ii) If any Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, an Issuing Bank will not be required to issue any Letter of Credit or to amend any outstanding Letter of Credit to increase the face amount thereof, alter the drawing terms thereunder or extend the expiry date thereof, unless such Issuing Bank is satisfied that any exposure that would result therefrom is fully covered or eliminated by any combination satisfactory to such Issuing Bank of the following:

(A) in the case of a Defaulting Lender, the L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated, as to outstanding and future Letters of Credit, to the Non-Defaulting Lenders as provided in clause (i) of Section 2.26(b);

(B) in the case of a Defaulting Lender, without limiting the provisions of Section 2.26(a), the Borrower Cash Collateralizes the obligations of the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender; and

(C) in the case of a Defaulting Lender and a proposed issuance of a Letter of Credit by an instrument or instruments in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and to such Issuing Bank, the Borrower agrees that the face amount of such requested Letter of Credit will be reduced by an amount equal to the unreallocated, non-Cash Collateralized portion thereof as to which such Defaulting Lender would otherwise be liable, in which case the obligations of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such Letter of Credit will, subject to the first proviso below, be on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, and the pro rata payment provisions of Section 7.02 will be deemed adjusted to reflect this provision;

provided that (1) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s total Aggregate Revolving Exposure and total L/C Exposure may not in any event exceed the Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender, (2) each such reallocation shall be in an amount and currency which is consistent with those set forth on Schedule 2.01 with respect to such Non-Defaulting Lender, and (3) neither any such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto nor any such Cash Collateralization or reduction will constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender, or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender.

(c) Letter of Credit Commitment and Issuing Bank Sublimits. Upon at least one Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the relevant Revolving Lenders), the Borrower shall have the right, on any day, permanently to terminate or reduce the L/C Commitment in respect of Letters of Credit available to be issued for its account in whole or in part, whereupon the Issuing Bank Sublimits shall be reduced ratably in accordance with the respective amounts thereof by an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such reduction of the L/C Commitment.

(d) Letter of Credit Requests. (i) Whenever the Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued for its account or continued, it shall give the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank at least five (or such lesser number as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank) Business Days’ written notice thereof. Each notice shall be executed by the Borrower and shall be in the form of Exhibit E (each, a

“Letter of Credit Request”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Revolving Lender of such issuance or continuation. A Letter of Credit Request may also request that any letter of credit or bank guarantee issued by an institution named in this Agreement at the time of such Letter of Credit Request in the definition of “Issuing Bank” for the account of the Borrower be deemed to be a Letter of Credit for all purposes hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall also submit, simultaneously with any Letter of Credit Request, a completed and executed Letter of Credit Application in connection with such Letter of Credit Request.

(ii) The making of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Borrower making such request that the Letter of Credit requested thereby may be issued or continued, as applicable, in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, Section 2.23(b).

(e) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date that is one year or 180 days after the date of the issuance of such standby Letter of Credit or trade Letter of Credit, respectively, and (ii) the L/C Maturity Date, unless such Letter of Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date; provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of 12 months (or, in the case of any trade Letter of Credit, 180 days) or less (but not beyond the L/C Maturity Date) unless the applicable Issuing Bank or the Borrower notifies the beneficiary thereof at least 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed; provided, further, that any such Letter of Credit shall not expire on such expiry date if Cash Collateralized in the amount required by and otherwise in accordance with Section 2.23(l) or fully backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank.

(f) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender with a Revolving Commitment, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each relevant Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower (or, if applicable, another party pursuant to its obligations under any other Loan Document) forthwith on the date due as provided in Section 2.02(g). Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(g) Reimbursement. If any Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the immediately following Business Day.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of the Borrower hereunder to reimburse L/C Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment) of any Issuing Bank. However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment) in determining whether drafts and other documents presented

under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof; it is understood that an Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit (A) an Issuing Bank’s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever, and (B) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of an Issuing Bank.

(i) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Bank shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make any payment thereon if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. The foregoing shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by the Issuing Banks when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing). The applicable Issuing Bank, shall as promptly as possible give written notification to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, of any demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided, however, that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the applicable Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each relevant Revolving Lender notice thereof.

(j) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on such date, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of such Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment by the Borrower or other Loan Party or the date on which interest shall commence to accrue thereon as provided in Section 2.02(f), at the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount were an (i) in the case of an L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit issued in a Stated Amount denominated in Dollars, an ABR Revolving Loan, and (ii) in the case of an L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit issued in a Stated Amount denominated in an Alternative Currency, an Alternative Rate Revolving Loan with a one-month Interest Period.

(k) Resignation of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders and the Borrower. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a Revolving Lender satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (such satisfaction not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) that shall agree to serve as successor Issuing Bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank and the retiring Issuing Bank shall be discharged from its obligations to issue additional Letters of Credit hereunder. At the time such resignation shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(ii). The acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Revolving Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Revolving Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(l) Cash Collateralization. If (x) any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, (y) the aggregate L/C Exposure of all Revolving Lenders exceeds the aggregate L/C Commitments then in effect or (z) as of the L/C Maturity Date, any Letter of Credit for any reason remains outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn and the entire undrawn amount thereof shall not have been backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower, shall, (1) not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the L/C Maturity Date, in the case of clause (z), or (2) on the Business Day Holdings or the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Lenders having, or holding, at least a majority of the Total Revolving Commitment at such time (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure of all Revolving Lenders) thereof (provided that, in the case of an Event of Default described in Section 7.01(h) or (i), such notice shall be deemed to have been given automatically upon the occurrence of such an Event of Default), in the case of clauses (x) and (y), in each case Cash Collateralize the total L/C Exposure of all Revolving Lenders in an aggregate amount equal to, (A) in the case of clause (x), the amount stated therefor in such notice received by Holdings or the Borrower (which shall be reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders delivering such notice, but which, in any event, shall not be less than 100% of the total L/C Exposure of all Revolving Lenders), (B) in the case of clause (y), 100% of the amount by which the total L/C Exposure of all Revolving Lenders then exceeds the L/C Commitment, and (C) in the case of clause (z), 103% of the aggregate amount of L/C Outstandings at such time. Such cash shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits in Permitted Investments, which investments shall be made at the option and sole

discretion of the Collateral Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the total L/C Exposure of all Revolving Lenders at such time, and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure of all Revolving Lenders), be applied to satisfy the Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder (I) as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived, or (II) pursuant to clause (y) of the first sentence of this Section 2.23(l), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower promptly following the date on which the circumstances described in such clause (y) cease to exist.

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

(n) Independence. The Borrower acknowledges that the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit are independent of the existence, performance or nonperformance of any contract or arrangement underlying such Letter of Credit, including contracts or arrangements between such Issuing Bank and the Borrower and between the Borrower and the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit. An Issuing Bank shall have no duty to notify the Borrower of its receipt of a demand or a draft, certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit or of its decision to honor such demand. An Issuing Bank may, without incurring any liability to the Borrower or impairing its entitlement to reimbursement under this Agreement, honor a demand under a Letter of Credit despite notice from the Borrower of, and without any duty to inquire into, any defense to payment or any adverse claims or other rights against the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit or any other person. An Issuing Bank shall have no duty to request or require the presentation of any document, including any default certificate, not required to be presented under the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. An Issuing Bank shall have no duty to seek any waiver of discrepancies from the Borrower, nor any duty to grant any waiver of discrepancies that the Borrower approves or requests. An Issuing Bank shall have no duty to extend the expiration date or term of a Letter of Credit or to issue a replacement Letter of Credit on or before the expiration date of a Letter of Credit or the end of such term except in accordance with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit.

(o) Governing Rules. The Borrower agrees that each Letter of Credit shall be governed by the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) Publication No. 600 (2007 Revision) or, at the applicable Issuing Bank’s option, such later revision thereof in effect at the time of issuance of such Letter of Credit (as so

chosen for such Letter of Credit, the “UCP”) or the International Standby Practices 1998, ICC Publication No. 590 or, at the applicable Issuing Bank’s option, such later revision thereof in effect at the time of issuance of such Letter of Credit (as so chosen for such Letter of Credit, the “ISP”, and each of the UCP and the ISP, an “ICC Rule”). An Issuing Bank’s privileges, rights and remedies under such ICC Rules shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, its privileges, rights and remedies expressly provided for herein. The UCP and the ISP shall serve, in the absence of proof to the contrary, as evidence of general banking usage with respect to the subject matter thereof. The Borrower agrees that for matters not addressed by the chosen ICC Rule, each Letter of Credit shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of New York and applicable United States Federal laws. If, at the Borrower’s request, a Letter of Credit expressly chooses a state or country law other than New York State law and United States Federal law or is silent with respect to the choice of an ICC Rule or a governing law, an Issuing Bank shall not be liable for any payment, cost, expense or loss resulting from any action or inaction taken by such Issuing Bank if such action or inaction is or would be justified under an ICC Rule, New York law, applicable United States Federal law or the law governing such Letter of Credit.

Section 2.24. Incremental Facilities.

(a) At any time and from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to the Lenders), request (i) additional Term Loans or one or more additional tranches of term loans hereunder (collectively, the “Incremental Term Loans”), (ii) increases in the amount of the Revolving Commitments or one or more additional tranches of revolving loans hereunder (collectively, the “Incremental Revolving Loans”), or (iii) in lieu of the Term Loans or additional tranches of term loans described in clause (i) above, junior lien secured or unsecured term loans that would be issued pursuant to separate loan documentation and not pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the “Incremental Other Term Loans”; and together with the Incremental Term Loans and the Incremental Revolving Loans, collectively, the “Incremental Facilities”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate amount of the Incremental Facilities incurred after the Closing Date shall not exceed an amount equal to the greater of (x) U.S.$130,000,000 and (y) Consolidated EBITDA for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters for which financial statements have been delivered (and after giving effect to the Transactions occurring on the Closing Date) (the “Non-Ratio-Based Incremental Facility Cap”); provided that the Borrower may incur additional Incremental Facilities without regard to the Non-Ratio-Based Incremental Facility Cap (each such Incremental Facility, a “Ratio-Based Incremental Facility”) so long as the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, determined on a Pro Forma Basis (after giving effect to any Permitted Acquisition, Investment or repayment of Indebtedness or other use of the proceeds of such Incremental Facility, in each case if permitted hereunder), is equal to or less than 4.20:1.00 (after giving effect to the Transactions occurring on the Closing Date) (calculated, in the case of any Incremental Revolving Loans, as if such Indebtedness then being incurred or established were fully drawn, and, in the case of all Incremental Facilities, excluding from Unrestricted Cash and Cash Equivalents the aggregate amount of cash proceeds thereof; provided that if the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio set forth above is satisfied on such date after giving effect to a proposed incurrence of an Incremental Facility, the entire amount of such Incremental Facility may, in the sole discretion of the Borrower, be incurred under the Ratio-Based Incremental Facility without regard to the incurrence of indebtedness under the Non-

Ratio-Based Incremental Facility Cap; provided, further, that (i) if the Borrower incurs indebtedness under an Incremental Facility under the Non-Ratio-Based Incremental Facility Cap on the same date that it incurs indebtedness under the Ratio-Based Incremental Facility, then the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio will be calculated with respect to such incurrence under the Ratio-Based Incremental Facility without regard to the incurrence of indebtedness under the Non-Ratio-Based Incremental Facility Cap and (ii) any Indebtedness incurred under the Non-Ratio-Based Incremental Facility Cap may be reclassified, as the Borrower may elect from time to time, as having been incurred as a Ratio-Based Incremental Facility if the Borrower meets the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio set forth above at such time on a pro forma basis). Each tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall be in an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000,000 and in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than U.S.$10,000,000 (or such lesser minimum amount approved by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) and each tranche of Incremental Revolving Loans shall be in an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000,000 and in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than U.S.$10,000,000 (or such lesser minimum amount approved by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion); provided that such amount may be less than such applicable minimum amount or integral multiple amount if such amount represents all the remaining availability under the Non-Ratio-Based Incremental Facility Cap or in respect of Ratio-Based Incremental Facilities.

(b) Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.24 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Facility. Incremental Loans may be provided by any existing Lender (it being understood that no existing Lender will have an obligation to provide any portion of an Incremental Facility), in each case, on terms permitted under this Section 2.24 or any Additional Lender; provided that the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank shall have consented (in each case, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) to any Additional Lender’s providing such Incremental Loans if such consent by the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank would be required under Section 9.04 for an assignment of Loans to such Additional Lender. Each Incremental Facility (other than any Incremental Other Term Loans) shall become effective pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Lender or Additional Lender providing such Incremental Facility and the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent as to the effectiveness of any Incremental Other Term Loans. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Facility Amendment and, to the extent notified by the Borrower, any Incremental Other Term Loans. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Facility Amendment, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as applicable, may be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Facility and the Incremental Loans evidenced thereby. Any Incremental Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any person other than the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders or Additional Lenders providing the applicable Incremental Facility (and, if the subject of such Incremental Facility Amendment is Incremental Revolving Loans, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as applicable), effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.24. This Section 2.24(b) shall supersede any provisions in Section 9.08 to the contrary.

(c) (i) No Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Other Term Loans shall require any scheduled or other mandatory repayment of principal (other than (x) in the case of Incremental Term Loans only, amortization not to exceed 1.0% per annum (or such higher annual amortization rate necessary the achieve trading fungibility between such Incremental Term Loans and the other Term Loans, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the arranger of such Incremental Facility) of the aggregate principal amount thereof, and prepayments in which the existing Term Lenders are entitled to participate on no less than a pro rata basis and (y) (A) maturity payments and customary mandatory prepayments for a customary bridge financing which, subject to customary conditions, provides for automatic conversion or exchange into Indebtedness that otherwise complies with the requirements of this definition or (B) customary “AHYDO” payments) prior to the repayment of the existing Term Loans in full; provided that any Incremental Term Loans may provide for the ability of the Lenders or Additional Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans to participate on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans to the extent otherwise required or permitted hereunder(ii) the interest rate, upfront fees and original issue discount for any Incremental Term Loans shall be as determined by the Borrower and the Lenders or Additional Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans; provided that in the event that the “effective yield” on any Incremental Term Loans denominated in a particular Currency (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Incremental Other Term Loans) provided within a 12-month period following the Closing Date (which shall be determined by (x) including interest rate margins, original issue discount (based on a four-year average life to maturity or, if less, the remaining life to maturity) and upfront fees payable by the Borrower generally to all the lenders of such Incremental Term Facility and (y) if such Incremental Term Loans are subject to an interest rate floor greater than the interest rate floor applicable to the Term Loans, such differential between interest rate floors shall be equated to the “effective yield” for purposes of determining whether an increase to the interest rate margin for the Term Loans shall be required, but only to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor applicable to the Term Loans would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect, and in such case, the interest rate floor (but not the interest rate margin) applicable to the Term Loans shall be increased to the extent of such differential between interest rate floors and (z) excluding customary arrangement, commitment, structuring, underwriting or other fees, in each case not shared generally with all relevant lenders) (the “Incremental Yield”) exceeds the yield on the Term Loans denominated in such Currency hereunder (determined as provided in the immediately preceding parenthetical) by more than 0.50%, then the interest margins for the Term Loans denominated in such Currency hereunder shall automatically be increased to a level such that the yield on such Term Loans is 0.50% below the Incremental Yield (it being agreed that any increase in yield to any existing facility required due to the application of an Adjusted Interbank Offered Rate or ABR “floor” on any Incremental Facility shall be effected solely through an increase therein (or implementation thereof, as applicable)) and (iii) except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.24, all other terms of such Incremental Facility, if not consistent with the terms of the existing Loans, will be as agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders or Additional Lenders providing such Incremental Facility; provided that such other terms that are not consistent with the existing Loans hereunder shall have been consented to by the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Any Incremental Revolving Loans shall be on the same terms and conditions as the Revolving Loans hereunder.

(d) With respect to any Incremental Term Loans (i) the final maturity date thereof shall be no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date in respect of Term Loans, (ii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Incremental Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the then outstanding Term Facility under the Loan Documents with the longest Weighted Average Life to Maturity and (iii) subject to clauses (i) and (ii) and paragraph (c)(i) above, the amortization schedules applicable to such Incremental Term Loans shall be as determined by the Borrower and the Lenders or Additional Lenders thereunder; provided that the foregoing shall not apply with respect any customary bridge financing which, subject to customary conditions, provides for automatic conversion or exchange into Indebtedness that otherwise complies with the requirements of this definition.

(e) Each of the Incremental Term Loans and the Incremental Other Term Loans shall rank pari passu in right of security with the Revolving Loans and the Term Loans (provided that any Incremental Other Term Loans may rank junior in right of security with the Revolving Loans and the Term Loans (“Junior Lien Incremental Other Term Loans”) or be unsecured (“Unsecured Incremental Other Term Loans”) so long as with respect to any Junior Lien Incremental Other Term Loans, an intercreditor agreement shall be entered into with the Representative of such providers of such Junior Lien Incremental Other Term Loans in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Facility Amendment or Incremental Other Term Loans shall become effective unless, on the date of such effectiveness (each, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”), (i) the representations and warranties set forth in the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of any representations and warranties qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in all respects) as of such date with the same effect as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which such case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date), (ii) at the time of and immediately after such effectiveness, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the incurrence of such Incremental Facility and (iii) after giving effect to the Incremental Facility (and giving effect to any Permitted Acquisition, Investment or repayment of Indebtedness with the proceeds of such Incremental Facility, in each case if permitted hereunder), the Borrower would be in compliance with the Financial Maintenance Covenant, determined on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Facility (calculated, in the case of any Incremental Revolving Loans, as if such Indebtedness then being incurred or established were fully drawn, and, in the case of all Incremental Facilities, excluding from Unrestricted Cash and Cash Equivalents the aggregate amount of cash proceeds thereof); provided that if the proceeds of such Incremental Loans are, substantially concurrently with the receipt thereof, to be used by the Borrower or any Loan Party to finance, in whole or in part, a Limited Condition Acquisition, then the only conditions to effectiveness of any such Incremental Facility Amendment or Incremental Other Term Loans shall be the conditions specified in Section 1.06. The proceeds of any Incremental Loans will be used for general corporate purposes (including financing capital expenditures, Permitted Acquisitions, Restricted Payments, refinancing of Indebtedness and any other Investment or transaction not prohibited hereunder) and otherwise in compliance with this Agreement, including Section 3.26(c) and the second sentence of Section 5.08.

Section 2.25. Refinancing Amendment. At any time and from time to time, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for or to extend, renew, replace or refinance the Revolving Loans and/or the Term Loans in whole or in part, in each case, pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment, which Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may, at the election of the Borrower, take the form of new Term Loans (the “Other Term Loans”) or new Revolving Loans (the “Other Revolving Loans”, together with the Other Term Loans, the “Other Loans”) under an additional Facility hereunder; provided that there shall be no obligors in respect of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness that are not Loan Parties. Any Other Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or on a less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments hereunder, as specified in the applicable Refinancing Amendment (provided that if the Lenders or Additional Lenders providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness have the ability to decline mandatory prepayments, any such mandatory prepayment that is not accepted by such Lenders or Additional Lenders shall be applied, subject to the right of any applicable Lender to decline mandatory prepayments (if any), to the non-refinanced Loans of the Class being refinanced). The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (including, solely to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of customary legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Sections 4.01 and 4.02 or thereafter under Section 5.17 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent)). Each incurrence of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness under this Section 2.25 shall be in an aggregate principal amount of not less than U.S.$5,000,000. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement may be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans subject thereto as Other Loans). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any person other than the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Borrower and the Lenders or Additional Lenders providing the applicable Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (and, if the subject of such Refinancing Amendment is Other Revolving Loans, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as applicable), effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.25. This Section 2.25 shall supersede any provisions in Section 9.08 to the contrary. It is understood that (a) any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (it being understood that there is no obligation to approach any existing Lenders to provide any such commitment to provide Other Loans) and (b) the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) to such person’s providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness if such consent would be required under

100

Section 9.04 for an assignment of Loans of the same Class as such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness to such person.

Section 2.26. Defaulting Lenders. (a) If a Lender becomes, and during any period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, if any Letter of Credit is at the time outstanding, the applicable Issuing Bank (except, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, to the extent the Commitments have been fully reallocated pursuant to Section 2.26(b)), by notice to the Borrower and such Defaulting Lender through the Administrative Agent, may require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to such Issuing Bank in respect of such Letter of Credit in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender to be applied pro rata in respect thereof, or to make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and to such Issuing Bank in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender.

(b) If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply with respect to any outstanding L/C Exposure or Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender:

(i) the unfunded L/C Exposure or Swingline Exposure, as the case may be, of such Defaulting Lender will, subject to the limitation in the first proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; provided that (A) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s Aggregate Revolving Exposure and total L/C Exposure may not in any event exceed the Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation, (B) each such reallocation shall be in an amount and currency which is consistent with those set forth on Schedule 2.01 with respect to such Non-Defaulting Lender, and (C) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender;

(ii) the reallocation described in clause (i) above shall not be effected if, at the time of any such reallocation, the conditions described in Section 4.01 are not satisfied;

(iii) to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of such Defaulting Lender’s unfunded L/C Exposure or Swingline Exposure, as the case may be, cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of the first proviso in clause (i) above or otherwise, the Borrower will, not later than three Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of each Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable), (A) first, prepay Swingline Loans of the applicable Class in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of such Swingline Exposure and second, Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to such Issuing Bank in respect of such L/C Exposure in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of such L/C Exposure or (B) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and to such Issuing Bank in their

101

sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender; and

(iv) any amount paid by the Borrower or otherwise received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated non-interest bearing account until (subject to Section 2.26(f)) the Termination Date and will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: first to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender (pro rata as to the respective amounts owing to each of them) under this Agreement, third to the payment of post-default interest and then current interest due and payable to the Lenders hereunder other than Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them, fourth to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fifth to pay principal and unreimbursed Loans in respect of Letters of Credit then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable to them, sixth so long as no Default of Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, seventh to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders, and eighth after the Termination Date, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(c) In furtherance of the foregoing, if any Lender becomes, and during any period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower (which authorization is irrevocable and coupled with an interest) to give, in its discretion, through the Administrative Agent, a Borrowing Request pursuant to Section 2.03 in such amounts (subject to the limitations set forth in the proviso in Section 2.26(b)(i)) and at such times as may be required to (i) reimburse an outstanding L/C Disbursement, (ii) Cash Collateralize (only to the extent of any Defaulting Lender’s unreallocated portion under clause (b)(iii) above) the obligations of the Borrower in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit and/or (iii) prepay (only to the extent of any Defaulting Lender’s unreallocated portion under clause (b)(iii) above) the obligations of the Borrower in respect of outstanding Swingline Loans in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Swingline Loans.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time the Required Lenders determine that the person serving as Administrative Agent or Swingline

102

Lender, as applicable, is (without taking into account any provision in the definition of “Defaulting Lender” requiring notice from the Administrative Agent or any other party) a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (v) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders (determined after giving effect to Section 9.08) may by notice to the Borrower and such person remove such person as Administrative Agent or Swingline Lender, as applicable, and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a replacement Administrative Agent or Swingline Lender, respectively, hereunder. Such removal will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be effective on the earlier of (i) the date a replacement Administrative Agent or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, is appointed, and (ii) the date thirty days after the giving of such notice by the Required Lenders (regardless of whether a replacement Administrative Agent or Swingline Lender, as applicable, has been appointed).

(e) The Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than thirty Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.26(b)(iii) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts), provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

(f) If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Banks agree in writing, in their discretion, that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the 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 amounts then held in the segregated account referred to in Section 2.26(b)), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par such portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders and/or make such other adjustments as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Aggregate Revolving Exposure and L/C Exposure of the Lenders to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender (and such exposure of each Lender will automatically be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing); provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such 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 Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(g) So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

103

Section 2.27. Amendment and Restatement.

(a) Each of the Consenting Existing Lenders has executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower a signature page to the Existing Lender Consent pursuant to which such Consenting Existing Lender has consented to the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement effected hereby.

(b) As of the Closing Date, this Agreement shall amend, and restate as amended, the Existing Credit Agreement, but shall not constitute a novation thereof or in any way impair or otherwise affect the rights or obligations of the parties thereunder (including with respect to Loans and representations and warranties made thereunder) except as such rights or obligations are amended or modified hereby. The Existing Credit Agreement as amended and restated hereby shall be deemed to be a continuing agreement among the parties, and all documents, instruments and agreements delivered pursuant to or in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement not amended and restated in connection with the entry of the parties into this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, each in accordance with its terms, as of the date of delivery or such other date as contemplated by such document, instrument or agreement to the same extent as if the modifications to the Existing Credit Agreement contained herein were set forth in an amendment to the Existing Credit Agreement in a customary form, unless such document, instrument or agreement has otherwise been terminated or has expired in accordance with or pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Existing Credit Agreement or such document, instrument or agreement or as otherwise agreed by the required parties hereto or thereto.

(c) Each Existing Lender, as to itself, hereby waives any indemnity claim for breakage costs under Section 2.16 of the Existing Credit Agreement in connection with any Breakage Event resulting from any payment in respect of its Loans (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) in connection with the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement effected hereby.

Each of Holdings and the Material Subsidiaries, as applicable, has good and marketable title to, or valid leasehold or subleasehold interests (or applicable local equivalents) in, or other right to use, all its material properties and assets (including all Material Real Property) free and clear of all Liens, except for minor defects in title that, in the aggregate, are not substantial in amount and do not materially detract from the value of the property subject thereto or interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties and assets for their intended purposes and except for Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02. Except where the failure could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each parcel of Material Real Property is free from material structural defects and all building systems contained therein are in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, suitable for the purposes for which they are currently being used.

Each parcel of Material Real Property and the current use thereof complies in all material respects with all applicable laws (including building and zoning ordinances and codes) and with all insurance requirements, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.08. Subsidiaries. Schedule 3.08 sets forth as of the Closing Date a list of all subsidiaries of Holdings (and each Excluded Subsidiary, including each Immaterial Subsidiary, and each Unrestricted Subsidiary is identified as such on such list), including each such subsidiary’s exact legal name (as reflected in such subsidiary’s Constituent Documents) and jurisdiction of incorporation or formation and the percentage ownership interest of Holdings (direct or indirect) and any other subsidiaries therein, and identifies each subsidiary that is a Loan Party.

106

adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Except as set out in Section 3.17, none of Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries, or any of their respective material properties or assets, is in violation of, nor will the continued operation or management of their material properties and assets as currently conducted violate, any law, rule or regulation (including any zoning, building, ordinance, code or approval or any building permits) or any restrictions of record or agreements affecting any Hotel Real Property or the operation or management thereof, or is in default with respect to any judgment, writ, injunction, decree or order of any Governmental Authority, where such violation or default, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Certificates of occupancy (and comparable foreign certificates) or their equivalent under applicable local law where applicable or available and Permits are in effect for each Material Hotel Real Property as currently constructed, except where the failure to be so in effect could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

No Indebtedness being reduced or retired out of the proceeds of any Loans or Letters of Credit was or will be incurred for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock. Following the application of the proceeds of the Loans and the Letters of Credit, Margin Stock will not constitute more than 25% of the value of the assets of the Consolidated Group. None of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will violate or result in the violation of the Board’s Regulation U or X.

Section 3.13. Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Term Loans (a) to repay the Loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement in full together with interest thereon and other amounts owing thereunder, (b) for general corporate purposes of

Holdings and (c) to pay a portion of the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions.

Section 3.14. Tax Returns. Each of Holdings and each of the Subsidiaries has timely filed or timely caused to be filed all federal, provincial, state, local and foreign tax returns or materials required to have been filed by it and all such tax returns are correct and complete except in each case where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each of Holdings and each of the Material Subsidiaries has timely paid or timely caused to be paid all material Taxes due and payable by it and all assessments received by it, except Taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which Holdings or such Material Subsidiary, as applicable, shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP. Holdings and each of the Subsidiaries has made adequate provision in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the applicable jurisdiction for all material Taxes not yet due and payable. None of Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries (a) intends to treat the Loans or any of the transactions contemplated by any Loan Document as being a “reportable transaction” (within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4), or (b) is aware of any facts or events that would result in such treatment.

Section 3.15. No Material Misstatements. None of (i) the Confidential Information Memorandum or (ii) any other material written information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule (other than projections and information of a general economic or industry nature) furnished by or on behalf of Holdings or any Subsidiary to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Joint Book Running Manager, the Senior Co-Manager or any Lender for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by, or pursuant to, the Loan Documents or included therein or delivered pursuant thereto contained (when taken as a whole), contains or will contain any material misstatement of fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were, are or will be made, not misleading when taken as a whole (after giving effect to any written supplements thereto); provided, however, that to the extent any such information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule was based upon or constitutes a forecast, projection or other forward looking information, Holdings and the Borrower represents only that it acted in good faith and utilized assumptions reasonable at the time made and due care in the preparation of such information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule (it being understood that such forecasts, projections and other forward looking information are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of Holdings and the Borrower, and that no assurance can be given that the projections will be realized and differences from the projections may be material).

Section 3.16. Benefit Plans. (a) Each Loan Party and its ERISA Affiliates are in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Tax Code with respect to each Benefit Plan, and have performed their obligations under each Benefit Plan except, in each case, to the extent such failure to comply or perform obligations could not reasonably be expected either individually or in the aggregate to have a Material Adverse Effect.

108

No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all such other ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all benefit liabilities under each Benefit Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the last annual valuation date, applicable thereto, exceed the fair market value of the assets of such Benefit Plan, and the present value of all benefit liabilities of all underfunded Benefit Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the last annual valuation dates applicable thereto, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Benefit Plans, except, in each case, to the extent such excess or underfunding could not reasonably be expected, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Loan Party or any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or is reasonably expected to incur any Withdrawal Liability to any Multiemployer Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except to the extent the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Benefit Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Tax Code has received a determination letter from the IRS as to its qualified status under the Tax Code or is in the process of being submitted to the IRS for approval or will be so submitted during the applicable remedial amendment period, and except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, nothing has occurred since the date of such determination that would adversely affect such determination (or, in the case of a Benefit Plan with no determination, nothing has occurred that would materially adversely affect such qualification). Except to the extent required under Section 4980B of the Tax Code or under applicable laws, or otherwise set forth on Schedule 3.16, and except to the extent that the same could not reasonably be expected either individually or in the aggregate to have a Material Adverse Effect, no Benefit Plan provides health or welfare benefits (through the purchase of insurance or otherwise) for any retired or former employee of any Loan Party or any ERISA Affiliate.

(b) Except to the extent the same could not reasonably be expected individually or in the aggregate to have a Material Adverse Effect or as set forth on Schedule 3.16, with respect to each Foreign Plan: (i) each such plan is, and has been, established, administered and invested in compliance with the terms thereof and as required under all applicable law; (ii) all obligations thereunder (whether pursuant to the terms thereof or applicable law) which are required to be satisfied have been satisfied, and there are no outstanding defaults or violations thereunder by Holdings or any Subsidiary nor does a Responsible Officer have any knowledge of any default or violation by any other party to any such plan; (iii) all contributions required to be paid to or in respect of such plan have been paid in a timely fashion in accordance with the relevant schedule of contributions and all applicable law; (iv) there is no proceeding, action, suit or claim (other than routine claims for benefits) pending or threatened involving any such plan or its assets, and no facts exist that could reasonably be expected to give rise to any such proceeding, action, suit or claim (other than routine claims for benefits); (v) no person has taken any action to wind-up or terminate any such plan, in whole or in part, where such wind-up or termination has not been completed; (vi) there are no going concern unfunded actuarial liabilities, past service unfunded liabilities or solvency deficiencies respecting any such plan; and (vii) there have been no improper withdrawals or transfers of assets from any such plan.

109

(i) none of Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to take, in a timely manner, all actions necessary to obtain, including by way of transfer or re-issuance, maintain, renew and comply with any Environmental Permit, and all such Environmental Permits are in full force and effect and no administrative or judicial appeal is pending with respect thereto;

(ii) none of Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries has become a party to any governmental, administrative or judicial proceeding nor does a Responsible Officer possess knowledge of any such proceeding that has been threatened under Environmental Law;

(iii) to the knowledge of a Responsible Officer, none of Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries has received notice of, become subject to, or is aware of any facts or circumstances that could form the basis for, any Environmental Liability other than those which have been fully and finally resolved and for which no obligations remain outstanding;

(iv) to the knowledge of a Responsible Officer, no Material Real Property (A) is subject to any Lien, restriction on ownership, occupancy, use or transferability imposed pursuant to Environmental Law, or (B) contains or previously contained Hazardous Materials of a form or type or in a quantity or location that could reasonably be expected to result in any Environmental Liability;

(v) to the knowledge of a Responsible Officer, there has been no Release or threat of Release of Hazardous Materials at or from the Material Real Properties (or from any other facilities or properties currently or formerly owned, leased or operated by Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries) in violation of any Environmental Law, or in amounts or in a location or manner that could reasonably be expected to give rise to Environmental Liability;

(vi) none of Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries has generated, treated, stored, transported, or Released Hazardous Materials from the Material Real Properties (or from any facilities or other properties formerly owned, leased or operated by Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries) in violation of any Environmental Law which has not been fully remediated in accordance with Environmental Law, or in amounts or in a location or manner that could reasonably be expected to give rise to Environmental Liability;

(vii) to the knowledge of a Responsible Officer, no facts, circumstances, conditions or occurrences in respect of any of the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated exist that could reasonably be expected to (A) form the basis of any action, suit, claim or other judicial or administrative proceeding relating to liability under or noncompliance with any Environmental Law on the part of Holdings or any of the

110

Subsidiaries, or (B) interfere with or prevent continued compliance with Environmental Laws by Holdings or the Subsidiaries; or

Section 3.18. Insurance. As of the Closing Date, the insurance maintained by Holdings and the Subsidiaries is in full force and effect and all premiums that are due have been duly paid.

Section 3.19. Security Documents. Assuming due and proper execution by the parties thereto (other than any Loan Parties) and, where not required to be filed or submitted by a Subsidiary or its agent, proper submission to the applicable Governmental Authority, each of the Security Documents is effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties as security for the Obligations described therein, a legal, valid, binding and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof (subject to (x) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law and (y) any filings, notices and registrations and other perfection requirements necessary to create or perfect Liens on the Collateral granted by the Loan Parties in favor of the Secured Parties (which filings or recordings shall be made to the extent required by any Security Document)) and (i) in the case of the Pledged Collateral described therein with respect to which a security interest may be perfected by possession or control, when such original Pledged Collateral is delivered to the Collateral Agent (if required to be so delivered by the applicable Security Document) and (ii) in the case of all other Collateral described therein, when Financing Statements are filed (or such other filings, notices or recordings are accomplished) in the appropriate offices, corporate records or the with the appropriate persons as may be required under the applicable Personal Property Security Laws (or other applicable laws) or any Security Document, the Liens created by the Security Documents shall constitute a fully perfected first priority Liens on, and security interests in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations described therein, in each case prior and superior to the rights of any other person (except (i) in the case of all Collateral other than Pledged Collateral, with respect to Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02, and (ii) in the case of Pledged Collateral, with respect to Permitted Equity Collateral Liens).

Section 3.20. Location of Material Real Property. Schedule 3.20 lists completely and correctly as of the Closing Date all fee or freehold Material Real Property and all leased Material Real Property and the addresses thereof, indicating for each parcel whether it is owned, leased or

111

subleased. Holdings and the Subsidiaries own in fee or have valid leasehold or subleasehold interests in, as the case may be, all of their respective Material Real Property.

Section 3.21. Labor Matters. As of the Closing Date, there are no material strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against Holdings or any Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of a Responsible Officer, threatened that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The hours worked by and payments made to employees of Holdings and the Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the U.S. Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Federal, state, provincial, local or foreign law dealing with such matters, except where such failure could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All payments due from Holdings or any Subsidiary, or for which any claim may be made against Holdings or any Subsidiary, on account of wages and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of Holdings or such Subsidiary, except where the failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which Holdings or any Subsidiary is bound. All applicable employee consultation requirements in connection with the entering into, performance and consummation of the Loan Documents and the Transactions contemplated thereby by Holdings and the Subsidiaries have been duly complied with by Holdings and the Subsidiaries.

No claim or litigation regarding any Intellectual Property is pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or the Borrower, threatened, against Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that if adversely determined could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.24. Solvency. Immediately before and immediately after giving effect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and immediately following the making of each Loan (or other extension of credit hereunder) and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of thereof: (a) the fair value of the assets of the Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries, at a fair valuation, will exceed the debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, of the Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of the Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of the debts and other liabilities, subordinated,

For purposes of this Section 3.24, the amount of any contingent liabilities at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.

113

compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects.

No consent or approval of, or notice to, any counterparty to any Management Contract is or will be required in connection with the Transactions that has not already been obtained and is in full force and effect. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination under any Management Contract by any counterparty thereto that could, when considered individually or in conjunction with all other Management Contracts, if any, with respect to which a right of termination by any counterparty thereto exists as a result of consummation of the Transactions, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 7.03. Right to Cure.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.01, in the event that Holdings fails to comply with the Financial Maintenance Covenant as of the end of any relevant fiscal quarter, at any time after the end of such fiscal quarter and on or prior to the tenth Business Days after the date on which financial statements with respect to such fiscal quarter (or the fiscal year ended on the last day of such fiscal quarter) are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(a) or 5.04(b), as applicable (the “Cure Period”), Holdings shall have the right (the “Cure Right”) to receive cash capital contributions to the common equity of Holdings or issue Qualified Equity Interests for cash (the proceeds of which Holdings shall immediately contribute in cash to the Borrower as common equity or in exchange for Qualified Equity Interests of the Borrower), and upon the exercise of such right and such receipt by the Borrower of such cash proceeds, Holdings may, at the election of the Borrower, apply the aggregate amount (the “Cure Amount”) of such cash proceeds received by the Borrower solely to increase Consolidated EBITDA with respect to such applicable quarter and applicable periods that include such fiscal quarter; provided that such cash proceeds (i) are actually received by the Borrower as cash common equity (including through capital contribution of such cash proceeds

150

to the Borrower) during the applicable Cure Period and (ii) are Not Otherwise Applied (each such receipt and application of such cash proceeds as provided herein, a “Specified Equity Contribution”). If, after giving effect to the foregoing increase in Consolidated EBITDA by the Cure Amount as a result of a Specified Equity Contribution, the requirements of the Financial Maintenance Covenant shall be satisfied, then the requirements of the Financial Maintenance Covenant shall be deemed satisfied as of the end of the relevant fiscal quarter with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach of the Financial Maintenance Covenant that had occurred (and any resultant Event of Default or potential Event of Default) shall be deemed retroactively not to have occurred for the purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in each period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, there shall be at least two fiscal quarters in which no Specified Equity Contribution is made, (ii) no more than five Specified Equity Contributions shall be made in the aggregate during the term of this Agreement, (iii) the amount of any Specified Equity Contribution shall be no more than the amount required to cause the Borrower to be in compliance, on a Pro Forma Basis, with the Financial Maintenance Covenant for any applicable period and (iv) there shall be no pro forma reduction in Indebtedness with the proceeds of any Specified Equity Contribution for determining compliance with the Financial Maintenance Covenant for the fiscal quarter in which the Specified Equity Contribution is made and the applicable subsequent periods which include such fiscal quarter.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Section 7.03(a) may not be relied on for, and the Cure Amount received pursuant to any Specified Equity Contribution and the use of proceeds thereof shall be disregarded for, all purposes of this Agreement (except as expressly set forth in Section 7.03(a)), including for determining any financial ratio-based terms (including pricing) or conditions and any increase to any available basket under this Agreement or calculating compliance with any of the incurrence tests hereunder.

ARTICLE VIII

THE AGENTS

Section 8.01. Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints each of the Administrative Agent, each Local Agent and the Collateral Agent (the Administrative Agent, the Local Agents and the Collateral Agent, collectively, the “Agents”) its agent and authorizes each Agent to take such actions on its behalf as its representative and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized by the Lenders to (a) prepare, execute and deliver any and all documents (including releases and the Security Documents) and (b) acquire, perfect, hold, administer and enforce the security interests with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents. All actions and declarations of the Agents made on or prior to the date hereof in connection with the above are hereby ratified and approved.

151

Section 8.02. Rights as a Lender. Each financial institution serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such financial institution and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, invest equity in and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings or any Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates as if it were not an Agent hereunder.

Section 8.03. Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.08), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as any Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Each of the Administrative Agent, each Local Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.08) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by Holdings, the Borrower or a Lender, and no Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent, or (vi) compliance by any Lender or other Person with the limitations, restrictions or prohibitions on assignments and participations contemplated by the definitions of “Eligible Assignee” and “Disqualified Institutions” and the related provisions of Section 9.04. No Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Bankruptcy Laws or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Bankruptcy Laws.

Section 8.04. Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper person. Each Agent may also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person, and shall not incur any

152

liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 8.05. Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it. When acting as a representative of the Secured Parties (including the Lenders and/or the Issuing Banks), each Agent shall be released from any restrictions of self-dealing and shall be authorized to delegate its rights and powers hereunder by way of a substitution of such rights and powers. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

Section 8.06. Resignation of an Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, each Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation of the Administrative Agent, a Local Agent, or the Collateral Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Agent which shall be an Eligible Bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such Eligible Bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while acting as Agent.

Section 8.07. Non-reliance on Agents, Lenders and Others. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents, the Joint Book Running Managers, the Senior Co-Manager or any Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents, the Joint Book Running Managers, the Senior Co-Manager or any Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 8.08. Trust Indenture Act. In the event that any Agent or any of its Affiliates shall be or become an indenture trustee under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (as amended from

153

time to time, the “Trust Indenture Act”) in respect of any securities issued or guaranteed by any Loan Party, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any payment or property received in satisfaction of or in respect of any Obligation of such Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or on behalf of such financial institution acting as such Agent, in its capacity as such, for the benefit of any other Agent, Lender or Affiliate of either thereof under any Loan Document (other than such financial institution or an Affiliate thereof) and which is applied in accordance with the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be exempt from the requirements of Section 311 of the Trust Indenture Act pursuant to Section 311(b)(3) of the Trust Indenture Act.

Section 8.09. Certain Tax Matters. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.09.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by Holdings or the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Issuing Banks and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans and the issuance of Letters of Credit by the Issuing Banks, regardless of any investigation made by the Lenders or the Issuing Banks or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20, 9.05 and 9.18 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the occurrence of the Termination Date or any of the circumstances described in the component clauses of the definition thereof, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Book Running Managers, the Senior Co-Manager, any Lender or any Issuing Bank.

Section 9.03. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective as provided in Section 4.02.

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

(b) Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, however, that:

(i) except in the case of an assignment of a Loan or Commitment of a particular Class to an Affiliate of any Lender holding a Commitment or Loan of such Class, the Administrative Agent must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(ii) in the case of any assignment of a Revolving Loan or Revolving Commitment, each of the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender and the Borrower must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after having received a written request for such consent);

(iii) in the case of any assignment of a Term Loan, the Borrower must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be

157

unreasonably withheld or delayed and provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after having received a written request for such consent);

(iv) the amount of the Term Loan Commitment and/or Term Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than U.S.$1,000,000, in the case of Dollar Term Commitments or Dollar Term Loans, or €1,000,000, in the case of Euro Term Commitments or Euro Term Loans (or, in each case, if less than such minimum, the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment and/or Term Loans), and if in excess thereof shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000,000, in the case of Dollar Term Commitments or Dollar Term Loans, or €1,000,000, in the case of Euro Term Commitments or Euro Term Loans;

(v) the amount of the Revolving Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than U.S.$2,500,000 and if in excess thereof shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$2,500,000 (or, in each case, the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment);

(vi) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance (such Assignment and Acceptance to be delivered together with a processing and recordation fee of U.S.$3,500);

(vii) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender immediately prior to the assignment, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and

(viii) the Administrative Agent and the assignee shall have received all documentation and other information required by bank regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act and any other similar law, rule or regulation of any relevant jurisdiction;

provided further that (1) the consent of the Borrower pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of the immediately preceding proviso shall not be required with respect to any assignment (A) if such assignment is made to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or the Administrative Agent or an Approved Fund and such assignment does not result in any material increase in amounts payable by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.20 (notwithstanding any additional amounts resulting from a Change in Law that occurs after the effectiveness of such assignment) or (B) after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01(b), (c), (h) or (i), and (2) neither the consent of the Borrower pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of the immediately preceding proviso nor the consent of any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender pursuant to

158

clause (ii) of the immediately preceding proviso shall be required with respect to any assignment during the primary syndication of the Commitments and Loans to Persons approved by Holdings or the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, respectively, to the Joint Book Running Managers on or prior to the Closing Date. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to Section 9.04(e), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20, and 9.05, as well as to any Fees accrued for its account and not yet paid). In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment will be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to such assignment make such additional payments to the 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 the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by such 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 the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender 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 in accordance with its pro rata share of all Commitments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder becomes effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest will be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that its Term Loan Commitment and Revolving Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its Term Loans and Revolving Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance; (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of the Borrower or Subsidiary or the performance or observance by the Borrower or Subsidiary of any

159

of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 3.05 or delivered pursuant to Section 5.04 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Book Running Managers, the Senior Co-Manager, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, respectively, by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender; and (viii) such assignee intends to benefit from the Security Documents entered into, the Liens granted, and the Collateral provided, in each case by each Italian Subsidiary that is a Guarantor, all pursuant to article 1411 of the Italian Civil Code. For greater certainty, no assignment of a Loan or a portion of a Loan made pursuant to this Agreement shall be or shall be deemed to be a discharge, rescission, extinguishment, novation or substitution of such Loan or portion so assigned, which shall continue to be the same obligation and not a new obligation.

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

(e) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder) and the written consent of the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (in each case to the extent required by Section 9.04(b)) to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 9.04(e).

(f) Each Lender may, without the consent of Holdings or the Borrower, the Swingline Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (in each case, other than any Disqualified Institution) in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.14, 2.16, and 2.20 to the same extent as if they were Lenders (but, with respect to any particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender that sold the participation to such participant and subject to lender replacement rights set forth in Section 2.21 to the extent such provisions would apply to any Lender), and (iv) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to the Loans or L/C Disbursements and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than, to the extent provided in any applicable agreement between such Lender and its participant, amendments, modifications or waivers directly affecting such participant and decreasing any Fees payable hereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans, extending any scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest on the Loans, increasing or extending the Commitments).

(g) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant (in each case, other than any Disqualified Institution) any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that, prior to any such disclosure of information designated by the Borrower as confidential, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of such confidential information on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.17.

(h) Any Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure extensions of credit to such Lender or in support of obligations owed by such Lender, including to any Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank; provided that no such assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by such Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, such Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of such

161

Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with such Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to such Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans, and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(j) The Borrower shall not assign or delegate any of its rights or duties hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Swingline Lender), and any attempted assignment or delegation without such consent shall be null and void.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans to any Purchasing Borrower Party; provided that:

(i) such assignment shall be made pursuant to (x) an open market purchase on a non-pro rata basis or (ii) a Dutch Auction open to all Lenders of the applicable Class on a pro rata basis;

(ii) the assigning Lender and the Purchasing Borrower Party purchasing such Lender’s Term Loans, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance;

(iii) any Term Loans assigned to any Purchasing Borrower Party shall be automatically and permanently cancelled immediately upon the effectiveness of such assignment and will thereafter no longer be outstanding for any purpose hereunder (it being understood that such cancellation shall not, for any purpose hereunder, be treated as a voluntary prepayment of Loans hereunder, except that solely for purposes of Section 2.13(d) it shall be treated as a voluntary prepayment only to the extent of actual amount of cash paid by the Purchasing Borrowing Party for such purchase);

(iv) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans of the applicable Class shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans purchased pursuant to this Section 9.04(k) and each regularly scheduled principal repayment installment with respect to the Term Loans of

162

such Class shall be reduced pro rata by the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans so purchased;

(v) immediately after giving effect to any such assignment, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(vi) the assigning Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower a customary Big Boy Letter (it being understood that in no event shall any Purchasing Borrower Party be required to make a No MNPI Representation for purposes of this Section 9.04(k)); and

(vii) no proceeds of any Revolving Borrowing may be used to fund any such purchase by assignment.

Section 9.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay, from time to time promptly following written demand therefor (including, if requested, documentation reasonably supporting such request), all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (i) incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Joint Book Running Managers (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one primary firm of counsel to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the initial Issuing Bank and the Joint Book Running Managers, taken as a whole, namely Milbank, Tweed, Xxxxxx and XxXxxx LLP, and, one firm of local counsel per relevant jurisdiction (and, in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional firm of counsel to each group of similarly affected parties, taken as a whole)) in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein and the (x) preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery and (y) performance and administration (provided that, except with respect to actions or activities undertaken at the request of Holdings or any Subsidiary (or their counsel) or in connection with the creation, perfection, priority, continuation, protection or preservation of the Liens purported or required to be created under any Security Document, the Administrative Agent shall request the approval of Holdings as to the incurrence of additional fees of such counsel in excess of $30,000 in any calendar year commencing on or after the date on which the Loan Parties shall have satisfied (or the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall have waived such satisfaction in accordance with this Agreement) the requirements of Section 5.17, the Administrative Agent shall request the approval of Holdings as to the incurrence of any additional fees of such counsel to the extent the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent intends to seek reimbursement of such fees under this Section 9.05(a)), in each case of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any registrations and recordations of the Security Documents or Liens created thereby to the extent contemplated by the Loan Documents) or in connection with any Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder or in connection with any amendments, supplements, modifications or waivers of or to the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions thereby contemplated shall be consummated), in each case from time to time, and (ii) incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Book Running Managers, the Senior Co-Manager, any Issuing Bank or any Lender (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder.

163

(b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Book Running Managers, the Senior Co-Manager, each Lender (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Swingline Lender), each Issuing Bank and each Related Party of any of the foregoing persons (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all actual losses, claims, damages, liabilities and documented costs and expenses (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one primary firm of counsel to the Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, one firm of local counsel per relevant jurisdiction (and, in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional firm of counsel to each group of similarly affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole)) incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of, (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto or thereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit, (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto and irrespective of whether the Borrower or any of its Related Parties, or a third party, initiated such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding, or (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on any property owned or operated by Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries, or any actual or alleged Environmental Liability related in any way to Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries; provided, however, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related costs and expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or material breach of its funding obligations (if any) under the Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee or its Related Parties, or (y) have resulted from any dispute solely among the Indemnitees (other than any claims against an Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an administrative agent or arranger or any similar role under any Facility, and other than any claims arising out of any act or omission of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates), and, upon any such determination, any indemnification payments hereunder with respect to such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related costs and expenses previously received by such Indemnitee shall be subject to reimbursement by such Indemnitee.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Book Running Managers, the Senior Co-Manager, the Swingline Lender or any Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Book Running Managers or the Senior Co-Manager (and the Revolving Lenders severally agree to pay to the Swingline Lender and such Issuing Bank), as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Book Running Managers, the Senior Co-Manager, the Swingline Lender or any such Issuing Bank in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Exposure, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time.

164

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of the parties hereto shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, however, that nothing contained in the immediately preceding sentence shall limit the Borrower’s indemnity and reimbursement obligations to the extent otherwise set forth in this Section 9.05 in respect of any third party claims alleging such indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by such Indemnitee or obtained by such recipient through the Platform or any other telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent that such damages are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(e) The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the occurrence of the Termination Date or any of the circumstances described in the component clauses of the definition thereof, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Book Running Managers, the Senior Co-Manager, any Lender (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Swingline Lender) or any Issuing Bank. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Indemnitee shall be obligated to refund and return promptly any and all amounts paid by the Loan Parties under this Section 9.05 to such Indemnitee for any such fees, expenses or damages to the extent such Indemnitee is not entitled to payment of such amounts in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 9.06. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, except to the extent prohibited by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender or any of its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have; provided, however, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender exercises such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.26(b) and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders and (y) such Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a

165

statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

Section 9.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN LETTERS OF CREDIT AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH LETTER OF CREDIT SHALL BE GOVERNED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2.20(o).

Section 9.08. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.08(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No waiver, amendment, notice or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further waiver, amendment, notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings, the Borrower and the Required Lenders (or, in respect of any waiver, amendment or modification of or to the Financial Maintenance Covenant (including the component definitions thereof to the extent only affecting the Financial Maintenance Covenant) only, the Required Revolving Lenders); provided, however, that no such agreement shall:

(i) decrease the principal amount of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan or any date for reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (it being understood that the waiver of any Default or Event of Default, mandatory prepayment of Loans or mandatory reduction of Commitments shall not constitute such a decrease of amount, extension of payment date, waiver or excuse of any such payment or decrease of rate); provided, however, that waivers of, or amendments to, Section 2.07 shall only require the consent of the Required Lenders;

(ii) increase or extend the Commitments of any Lender or decrease, or extend the date for the payment of, any Fees of any Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent without the prior written consent of such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent;

166

(iii) amend or modify the pro rata requirements of Section 2.17, the provisions of this Section 9.08(b) or the definitions of the term “Required Lenders” or “Required Facility Lenders” (or any component definition thereof) without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby;

(iv) release the Borrower or all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees provided by the Guarantors (other than, in the case of any such releases of Guarantors as otherwise expressly permitted hereby or by the other Loan Documents), without the prior written consent of each Lender;

(v) amend, modify or waive Section 9.04(j) without the prior written consent of each Lender;

(vi) except to the extent permitted under the Loan Documents, release all or substantially all Collateral without the prior written consent of each Lender;

(vii) change the provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights of Lenders holding Loans of one Class differently from the rights of Lenders holding Loans of any other Class without the prior written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each adversely affected Class (it being understood that except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any waiver of a Default or Event of Default hereunder shall be subject only to the consent of the Required Lenders);

(viii) modify the protections afforded to an SPC pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.04(i) without the prior written consent of such SPC;

(ix) change the Currency of any outstanding Loan or the Currency of any outstanding Letter of Credit or alter the Currencies available to be borrowed by the Borrower without the prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby; or

(x) amend or modify (x) Section 7.02 in any manner that adversely affects the rights of any Lender Counterparty or Cash Management Bank, in each case that is a Secured Party, with respect to payments thereunder in respect of Obligations due and owing thereto under any Specified Hedging Agreement or Cash Management Obligations or (y) the definitions of “Obligations”, “Secured Parties”, “Specified Hedging Agreement”, “Lender Counterparty” or “Cash Management Bank” in a manner that has the effect of causing the Specified Hedging Agreements or Cash Management Obligations to cease to be secured by the Collateral, or guaranteed by the Guaranty, on a pari passu basis with the Obligations owing to the Lenders, in each case without the prior written consent of each Lender Counterparty and Cash Management Bank (in each case that is a Secured Party) affected thereby;

provided further that (x) only the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, the Required Lenders) shall be necessary to amend or waive the terms and provisions of the Financial Maintenance Covenant or Section 7.01(e) or the final paragraph of

167

Section 7.01 (in each case only as such Section or paragraph relates to the Financial Maintenance Covenant) and the related definitions as used in the Financial Maintenance Covenant or such provisions of Section 7.01, but not as used in other provisions of this Agreement, and no such amendment or waiver of any such terms or provisions (and such related definitions as so used) shall be permitted without the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders, and (y) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Issuing Bank hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable. In addition, if any Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature in any of the Loan Documents, then such Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision without any further action or consent of any other party if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders to such Agent within ten Business Days following receipt of written notice thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (and without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.08), the Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall forward such notice to all Lenders) make an offer (a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all Lenders (or all Lenders under a particular Facility) to make one or more amendments or modifications to allow the maturity of the Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders (as defined below) to be extended and, in connection with such extension, to (i) change the Applicable Rate and/or fees payable with respect to the applicable Loans and/or the Commitments of the Accepting Lenders and/or the payment of additional fees or other consideration to the Accepting Lenders, and/or (ii) change such additional terms and conditions of this Agreement solely as applicable to the Accepting Lenders (such additional changed terms and conditions (to the extent not otherwise approved by the requisite Lenders under this Section 9.08) to be effective only during the period following the original maturity date prior to its extension by such Accepting Lenders) (collectively, “Permitted Amendments”) pursuant to procedures reasonably acceptable to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Such notice shall set forth (A) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendments, and (B) the date on which such Permitted Amendments are requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 15 days nor more than 90 days after the date of such notice). Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments of the Lenders that accept the Loan Modification Offer in each case in such Lender’s sole discretion (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made. The Borrower, each Accepting Lender and the Administrative Agent shall enter into a loan modification agreement (the “Loan Modification Agreement”) and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence (x) the acceptance of the Permitted Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof and (y) the authorization of the Borrower to enter into and perform its obligations under the Loan Modification Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of any Loan Modification Agreement. Each party hereto agrees that, upon the effectiveness of a Loan Modification Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Amendment evidenced thereby and only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Accepting Lenders as to which such Lenders’ acceptance has been made.

168

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.08, guarantees, collateral security documents, intercreditor agreements (including any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement) and related documents executed by Loan Parties in connection with this Agreement may be, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended, supplemented and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment, supplement or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local Requirements of Law or advice of local counsel or (ii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document, intercreditor agreements or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents including, without limitation, to amend the Security Documents to permit Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt that is permitted hereunder to have a Lien on the Collateral ranking pari passu with the Liens created by the Security Documents to become secured thereby and/or subject to the terms of the applicable intercreditor agreement as “First Lien Obligations” (or the equivalent) thereunder and to permit Permitted Junior Secured Refinancing Debt or Junior Lien Incremental Other Term Loans that are permitted hereunder to have a Lien on the Collateral ranking junior to the Liens created by the Security Documents to be subject to the terms of the Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement as junior lien obligations thereunder.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.08, any (i) Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness Amendment or any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any person other than, (x) in the case of any such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness Amendment, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, or, (y) in the case of any such Refinancing Amendment, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders or Additional Lenders providing the applicable Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (and, if the subject of such Refinancing Amendment is Other Revolving Loans, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as applicable), in each case effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of the definition of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness, Section 2.25 or this Section 9.08(e), as applicable, or (ii) Incremental Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any person other than, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders or Additional Lenders providing the applicable Incremental Facility (and, if the subject of such Incremental Facility Amendment is Incremental Revolving Loans, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as applicable), in each case effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of Section 2.24 or this Section 9.08(e), as applicable. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment and each Incremental Facility Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment or Incremental Facility Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) reasonably necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness or Incremental Facility, respectively, established pursuant thereto.

(f) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments and waivers hereunder and the Commitment and

169

the outstanding Loans or other extensions of credit of such Lender hereunder will not be taken into account in determining whether the Required Lenders, the Required Facility Lenders (or the Required Term Lenders or the Required Revolving Lenders) or all of the Lenders, as required, have approved any such amendment or waiver (and the definitions of “Required Lenders” and “Required Facility Lenders” (and the definitions of “Required Term Lenders” and “Required Revolving Lenders”) will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period); provided, that any such amendment or waiver that would increase or extend the term of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, extend the date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, reduce the principal amount of any obligation owing to such Defaulting Lender, reduce the amount of or the rate or amount of interest on any amount owing to such Defaulting Lender or of any fee payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

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

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

Section 9.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER

170

PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

Section 9.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction).

Section 9.13. [Reserved].

Section 9.14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 9.03. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 9.15. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

(a) Holdings and the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States sitting in the State, City and County of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Book Running Managers, the Senior Co-Manager, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against Holdings or the Borrower or their respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

171

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

(c) Each of Holdings and the Borrower irrevocably appoints Belmond USA Inc. at its address at 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 as its authorized agent on which any and all legal process may be served in any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any New York State court or Federal court of the United States sitting in New York City. Each of Holdings and the Borrower agrees that service of process in respect of it upon such agent, together with written notice of such service given to it in the manner provided in Section 9.01, shall be deemed to be effective service of process upon it in any such action, suit or proceeding. Each of Holdings and the Borrower agrees that the failure of such agent to give notice to it of any such service shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or any judgment rendered in any such action, suit or proceeding based thereon. If for any reason such agent shall cease to be available to act as such, each of Holdings and the Borrower agrees to irrevocably appoint another such agent in New York City, as its authorized agent for service of process, on the terms and for the purposes of this Section 9.16(c). Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 9.17. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Local Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel, third party service providers and other advisors (it being understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or quasi regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder, under the other Loan Documents, under the Specified Hedging Agreements or in respect of the Cash Management Obligations or any suit, action or proceeding relating to the enforcement of its rights hereunder or thereunder, or to the extent necessary for the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the relevant Lender Counterparty or Cash Management Bank to assert any claim or defense, (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.17, to (i) any actual or prospective assignee of or participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Holdings, the Borrower or any other Subsidiary or any of their respective obligations, (iii) any rating agency, (iv) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, or (v) any credit insurer, (f) with the consent of the Borrower, or (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.17. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” shall mean all information received from Holdings and the Borrower and related to Holdings or the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that was available to the

172

Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender, any Lender Counterparty or any Cash Management Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to its disclosure by Holdings or the Borrower. Any person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.17 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such person would accord its own confidential information. Notwithstanding any other express or implied agreement, arrangement or understanding to the contrary, each of the parties hereto agrees that each other party hereto (and each of its employees, representatives or agents) are permitted to disclose to any persons, without limitation, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Loans and the other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, the Specified Hedging Agreements the documentation governing any Cash Management Obligations and all materials of any kind (including opinions and tax analyses) that are provided to the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Lender Counterparties, the Cash Management Banks, the Joint Book Running Managers, the Senior Co-Manager, any Agent or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing related to such tax treatment and tax aspects. To the extent not inconsistent with the immediately preceding sentence, this authorization does not extend to disclosure of any other information or any other term or detail not related to the tax treatment or tax aspects of the Loans or the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, including the identity of any Lender.

Section 9.18. Judgment Currency. (a) The obligations of each Loan Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in Dollars or an Alternative Currency, as the case may be (the “Obligation Currency”), shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent or a Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the equivalent in such Obligation Currency of such amount (determined by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 1.04 using the applicable Exchange Rate with respect to such Obligation Currency), in each case, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given.

(b) For purposes of determining the Dollar Equivalent, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

Section 9.19. Waiver of Immunities. If Holdings or the Borrower has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set-off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its property, Holdings or the Borrower hereby (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents. Each of Holdings and the Borrower agrees that the foregoing waivers shall be effective to the fullest extent permitted under the U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act

173

of 1976, as amended from time to time, and are intended to be irrevocable and not subject to withdrawal for purposes of such Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act.

Section 9.20. Release of Collateral and Guarantee Obligations. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon written request of Holdings or the Borrower in connection with any Disposition of or grant of a Lien on property expressly permitted by the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall have the authority to (without notice to or vote or consent of any Secured Party) take such actions as shall be required to release or establish the relative priority of its security interest in any Collateral the subject of such Disposition or Lien and, in the case of a Disposition involving the sale of any person, to release any Guarantee obligations of any person being disposed of in such Disposition, to the extent necessary to permit consummation of such Disposition in accordance with the Loan Documents; provided that Holdings or the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, at least ten Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release or establishment of relative priority, a written request for release or establishment of relative priority identifying the relevant Collateral and the terms of such Disposition or grant in reasonable detail, including the date thereof, the price or other material terms thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by Holdings or the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (which statement shall indicate the relevant provisions hereof and thereof permitting such transaction) and, in the case of an Asset Sale, that the proceeds of such Asset Sale will be applied in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of the Termination Date, at the reasonable written request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall (without notice to or vote or consent of any other Secured Party) take such actions as shall be required to release the Collateral Agent’s security interest in all Collateral, and to release all Guarantee obligations provided for in any Loan Document.

Section 9.21. Release from Certain Restrictions. Each party hereto granting authorization to any other person under this Agreement (including the Lenders’ and the Issuing Banks’ appointment of the Agents under Article IX and otherwise) hereby releases such other person from any restriction on representing several persons and/or self-dealing under any applicable law.

Section 9.22. Limitation of Liability. No recourse shall be had against any officer, director, member, partner or stockholder, in each case solely in such person’s capacity as such; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 9.22 shall be deemed to release any person from liability under any Guaranty or for such person’s fraudulent actions or willful or intentional misconduct.

Section 9.23. Electronic Communications; Treatment of MNPI. (a) Each of Holdings and the Borrower hereby agrees that, unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, it will provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, including all

174

notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (i) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an existing, Borrowing or other extension of credit (including any election of an interest rate or Interest Period relating thereto), (ii) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides notice of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any Borrowing or other extension of credit hereunder, or (v) initiates or responds to legal process (all such non-excluded information being referred to herein, collectively, as the “Communications”) by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium (provided such Communications contain any required signatures) in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent to xxxxxx.xxxxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx (or such other e-mail address designated by the Administrative Agent from time to time).

(b) Each party hereto agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications and other materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (collectively, including the Communications, the “Borrower Materials”) available to the Lenders, the other Agent, the Issuing Banks and any other Secured Party by posting the Borrower Materials on Debt Domain, IntraLinks, Syndtrak or another similar electronic system or website, if any, to which each Lender, each Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent) (the “Platform”). Nothing in this Section 9.23 shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent to make the Borrower Materials available to the Lenders, the Agents and the Issuing Banks in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents.

(c) Each Lender, each Agent and each Issuing Bank agrees that e-mail notice to it (at the address provided pursuant to the next sentence and deemed delivered as provided in the next paragraph) specifying that Borrower Materials have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of such Borrower Materials to such Lender for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of each Lender, each Agent and each Issuing Bank agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such Lender to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission, and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

(d) Each party hereto agrees that any electronic communication referred to in this Section 9.23 shall be deemed delivered upon the posting of a record of such communication (properly addressed to such party at the e-mail address provided to the Administrative Agent) as “sent” in the e-mail system of the sending party or, in the case of any such communication to the Administrative Agent, upon the posting of a record of such communication as “received” in the e-mail system of the Administrative Agent; provided that if such communication is not so received by the Administrative Agent during the normal business hours of the Administrative Agent, such communication shall be deemed delivered at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the Administrative Agent.

175

(e) Each party hereto acknowledges that (i) the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution, (ii) the Borrower Materials and the Platform are provided “as is” and “as available”, (iii) none of the Administrative Agent, its affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or representatives (collectively, the “Barclays Parties”) warrants the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of the Borrower Materials or the Platform, and each Barclays Party expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in any Borrower Materials or the Platform, and (iv) no warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Barclays Party in connection with any Borrower Materials or the Platform. In no event shall any Barclays Party have any liability to any Loan Party, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Person or entity for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Platform, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by an final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Barclays Party; provided that in no event shall any Barclays Party have any liability to any Loan Party, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential damages or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

(f) Holdings and the Borrower hereby acknowledge and agree that certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive MNPI, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to Holdings’ or any Subsidiary’s securities. Each of Holdings and Borrower hereby agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (1) all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (2) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any MNPI (provided, however, that to the extent that such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be subject to Section 9.17), (3) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information” and (4) the Agents shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Borrower Materials shall be deemed to be marked “PUBLIC” unless Holdings or the Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent promptly prior to its distribution to Lenders that any such document contains MNPI: (1) the Loan Documents (other than any schedules or other disclosures of factual information), (2) notifications of changes in the terms of the Facilities and (3) all information, certificates and reports delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(a), (b) or (c).

(g) Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its

176

delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including the U.S. Federal and state and all other applicable securities laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain MNPI. In the event that any Public Lender has elected for itself to not access any information disclosed through the Platform or otherwise, such Public Lender acknowledges that (i) the Agents and other Lenders may have access to such information and (ii) none of Holdings, the Borrower or any Agent or other Lender with access to such information shall have (x) any responsibility for such Public Lender’s decision to limit the scope of information it has obtained in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (y) any duty to disclose such information to such electing Lender or to use such information on behalf of such electing Lender, and shall not be liable for the failure to so disclose or use, such information.

(h) The Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender) shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Borrowing Requests and other telephonic notices, whether or not expressly provided for hereunder) purportedly given by or on behalf of Holdings or the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Holdings and the Borrower shall indemnify the Agents, each Issuing Bank, each Lender (including the Swingline Lender) and the Related Parties of each of the foregoing for all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance of such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of Holdings or the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereby consents to such recording.

Section 9.24. No Fiduciary Duties. Each of Holdings and the Borrower (on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party) agrees that (a) nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Affiliate thereof, on the one hand, and Holdings, the Borrower or such other Loan Party, as applicable, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other, (b) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions, and (c) 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 of Holdings and the Borrower (on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party) acknowledges that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may have interests in, or may be providing or may in the future provide financial or other services to other parties with interests which Holdings, the Borrower or such other Loan Party may regard as conflicting with its interests and may possess information (whether or not material to Holdings, the Borrower or such other Loan Party) other than as a result of (x) the Administrative Agent acting as administrative agent hereunder or (y) the Lenders acting as lenders hereunder, that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may not be entitled to share with Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party. Without prejudice to the foregoing, each of Holdings and the Borrower (on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party) agrees that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may

177

(A) deal (whether for its own or its customers’ account) in, or advise on, securities of any person, and (B) accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with other persons in each case, as if the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent and as if the Issuing Banks and Lenders were not lenders hereunder, and without any duty to account therefor to Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party. Each of Holdings and the Borrower (on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party) hereby irrevocably waives, in favor of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, any conflict of interest which may arise by virtue of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders acting in various capacities under the Loan Documents or for other customers of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender as described in this Section 9.24.

Section 9.25. Use of English Language.
