(iii) The Swing Line Lender shall make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Credit Date by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars at the Administrative Agent’s Principal Office.

(iv) With respect to any Swing Line Loans which have not been voluntarily prepaid by the Foreign Borrower pursuant to Section 2.13(a) or repaid pursuant to clause 2.03(a) above, Swing Line Lender may at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, deliver on any Business Day, but no later than every Friday (or next succeeding Business Day), to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Foreign Borrower), no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed Credit Date, a notice (which shall be deemed to be a Borrowing Notice given by the Foreign Borrower) requesting that each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment make Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans to the Foreign Borrower on such Credit Date in an amount equal to the amount of such Swing Line Loans (the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”) outstanding on the date such notice is given which the Swing Line Lender requests Lenders to prepay. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (A) the proceeds of such Revolving Loans made by the Lenders other than the Swing Line Lender shall be immediately delivered by the Administrative Agent to the Swing Line Lender (and not to the Foreign Borrower) and applied to repay a corresponding portion of the Refunded Swing Line Loans, (B) on the day such Revolving Loans are made, the Swing Line Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Refunded Swing Line Loans shall be deemed to be paid with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan made by the Swing Line Lender to the Foreign Borrower, and such portion of the Swing Line Loans deemed to be so paid shall no longer be outstanding as Swing Line Loans and shall no longer be due under the Swing Line Note of the Swing Line Lender but shall instead constitute part of the Swing Line Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans to the Foreign Borrower and shall be due under the Revolving Loan Note issued by the Foreign Borrower to the Swing Line Lender and (C) in no event shall the amount of Revolving Loans (or participations in any Swing Line Loan in lieu thereof) required to be funded by a Lender under this Section 2.03(b)(iv) exceed such Revolving Commitments. The Foreign Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender to charge the Foreign Borrower’s accounts with the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender (up to the amount available in each such account) in order to immediately pay the Swing Line Lender the amount of the Refunded Swing Line Loans to the extent the proceeds of such Revolving Loans made by Lenders, including the Revolving Loans deemed to be made by the Swing Line Lender are not sufficient to repay in full the Refunded Swing Line Loans. If any portion of any such amount paid (or deemed to be paid) to the Swing Line Lender should be recovered by or on behalf of the Foreign Borrower from the Swing Line Lender in bankruptcy, by assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be ratably shared among all Lenders in the manner contemplated by Section 2.17.

(v) If for any reason Revolving Loans are not made pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(iv) in an amount sufficient to repay any amounts owed to the Swing Line Lender in respect of any outstanding Swing Line Loans on or before the third Business Day after demand for payment thereof by Swing Line Lender, each Lender holding a

Revolving Commitment shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have purchased a participation in such outstanding Swing Line Loans, and in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the applicable unpaid amount together with accrued interest thereon. Upon one Business Day’s notice from the Swing Line Lender, each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment shall deliver to the Swing Line Lender an amount equal to its respective participation in the applicable unpaid amount in same day funds at the Principal Office of the Swing Line Lender. In order to evidence such participation, each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment agrees to enter into a participation agreement at the request of the Swing Line Lender in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Swing Line Lender. In the event any Lender holding a Revolving Commitment fails to make available to the Swing Line Lender the amount of such Lender’s participation as provided in this paragraph, the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon for three (3) Business Days at the rate customarily used by the Swing Line Lender for the correction of errors among banks and thereafter at the Base Rate.

(vi) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (A) each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans for the purpose of repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loans pursuant to the second preceding paragraph and each Lender’s obligation to purchase a participation in any applicable unpaid Swing Line Loans pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (1) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, any Loan Party or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (2) the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of Default; (3) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of any Loan Party; (4) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto; or (5) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, that such obligations of each Lender are subject to the condition that the Swing Line Lender had not received prior notice from the Foreign Borrower or the Required Lenders that any of the conditions under Section 3.02 to the making of the applicable Refunded Swing Line Loans or other unpaid Swing Line Loans were not satisfied at the time such Refunded Swing Line Loans or unpaid Swing Line Loans were made; and (B) the Swing Line Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swing Line Loans (1) if it has elected not to do so after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or Event of Default, (2) it does not in good faith believe that all conditions under Section 3.02 to the making of such Swing Line Loan have been satisfied or waived by the Required Lenders or (3) at a time when any Lender is a Defaulting Lender as set forth in Section 2.22.

Section 2.04 Issuance of Letters of Credit and Purchase of Participations Therein.

(a) Letters of Credit.

(i) During the Revolving Commitment Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Bank agrees to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Foreign Borrower in the aggregate amount up to but not exceeding the Letter of

Credit Sublimit; provided, that (A) each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in any Approved Currency; (B) the stated amount of each Letter of Credit shall not be less than $250,000 (or the applicable Foreign Currency Equivalent) or such lesser amount as is acceptable to the Issuing Bank; (C) after giving effect to such issuance, in no event shall the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect; (D) after giving effect to such issuance, in no event shall the Letter of Credit Usage exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit then in effect; (E) in no event shall any standby Letter of Credit have an expiration date later than the earlier of (1) the date that is five (5) days prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date and (2) the date which is one year from the date of issuance of such standby Letter of Credit; and (F) in no event shall any commercial Letter of Credit (1) have an expiration date later than the earlier of (x) the date that is five (5) days prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date and (y) the date which is 180 days from the date of issuance of such commercial Letter of Credit or (2) be issued if such commercial Letter of Credit is otherwise unacceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank in its reasonable discretion

Subject to the foregoing, the Issuing Bank may agree that a standby Letter of Credit shall automatically be extended for one or more successive periods not to exceed one year each, unless the Issuing Bank elects not to extend for any such additional period; provided, that the Issuing Bank may elect not to extend any such Letter of Credit if it has received written notice that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time the Issuing Bank must elect to allow such extension; provided, further, that in the event that any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue any Letter of Credit as set forth in Section 2.22.

(b) Notice of Issuance. Whenever the Foreign Borrower desires the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Foreign Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Issuance Notice no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least three (3) Business Days (in the case of standby letters of credit) or five (5) Business Days (in the case of commercial letters of credit), or in each case such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Issuing Bank in any particular instance, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02, the Issuing Bank shall issue the requested Letter of Credit only in accordance with the Issuing Bank’s standard operating procedures. Upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit or amendment or modification to a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify each Lender with a Revolving Commitment of such issuance or amendment or modification to a Letter of Credit and the amount of such Lender’s respective participation in such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.04(e).

(c) Responsibility of the Issuing Bank With Respect to Requests for Drawings and Payments. In determining whether to honor any drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering such document. As between the Foreign Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank, the Foreign Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit issued by the applicable Issuing Bank by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for, in the absence of its gross negligence or willful

misconduct: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, including any Governmental Acts; none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the Issuing Bank’s rights or powers hereunder; provided, however, that the foregoing is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Foreign Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit at law or under any other agreement. Without limiting the foregoing and in furtherance thereof, no action taken or omitted by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with the Letters of Credit or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall give rise to any liability on the part of the Issuing Bank to the Foreign Borrower; provided, however, the Foreign Borrower may have a claim against the Issuing Bank and the Issuing Bank may be liable to the Foreign Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct (as opposed to consequential or exemplary) damages suffered by the Foreign Borrower to the extent a final decision of a court of competent jurisdiction determines such direct damages were caused by the Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the Issuing Bank’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit.

(d) Reimbursement by the Foreign Borrower of Amounts Drawn or Paid Under Letters of Credit. In the event the Issuing Bank has determined to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit, it shall immediately notify the Foreign Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Foreign Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank on or before the Business Day immediately following the date on which such notice is received by the Foreign Borrower (such Business Day, the “Reimbursement Date”) in an amount in the Approved Currency in which such Letter of Credit was issued and in same day funds equal to the amount of such honored drawing; provided, that anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (A) unless the Foreign Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Reimbursement Date that the Foreign Borrower intends to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of such honored drawing with funds other than the proceeds of Revolving Loans, the Foreign Borrower shall be deemed to have given a timely Borrowing Notice to the Administrative Agent requesting Lenders with Revolving Commitments to make Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans on the Reimbursement Date in an amount in the applicable Approved Currency, equal to the amount of such honored drawing, and (B) subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions specified in Section 3.02, Lenders with Revolving Commitments shall, on the Reimbursement Date for any Letter of Credit, make

Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans in the amount of such honored drawing, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of such honored drawing; provided, further, that if for any reason proceeds of Revolving Loans are not received by the Issuing Bank on the Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the amount of such honored drawing, the Foreign Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank, on demand, in an amount in same day funds equal to the excess of the amount of such honored drawing over the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loans, if any, which are so received. Nothing in this Section 2.04(d) shall be deemed to relieve any Lender with a Revolving Commitment from its obligation to make Revolving Loans on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and the Foreign Borrower shall retain any and all rights it may have against any such Lender resulting from the failure of such Lender to make such Revolving Loans under this Section 2.04(d).

(e) Lenders’ Purchase of Participations in Letters of Credit. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender having a Revolving Commitment shall be deemed to have purchased, and hereby agrees to irrevocably purchase, from the Issuing Bank a participation in such Letter of Credit and any drawings honored thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (with respect to the Revolving Commitments) of the maximum amount which is or at any time may become available to be drawn thereunder. In the event that the Foreign Borrower shall fail for any reason to reimburse the Issuing Bank as provided in Section 2.04(d), the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify each Lender with a Revolving Commitment of the unreimbursed amount of such honored drawing and of such Lender’s respective participation therein based on such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitments. Each Lender with a Revolving Commitment shall make available to the Issuing Bank an amount equal to its respective participation, in the applicable Approved Currency and in same day funds, at the office of the Issuing Bank specified in such notice, not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the first Business Day (under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such office of the Issuing Bank is located) after the date notified by the Issuing Bank. In the event that any Lender with a Revolving Commitment fails to make available to the Issuing Bank on such Business Day the amount of such Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit as provided in this Section 2.04(e), the Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon for three (3) Business Days at the rate customarily used by the Issuing Bank for the correction of errors among banks and thereafter, in respect of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, at the Base Rate, and in respect of Letters of Credit denominated in any other Approved Currency, at the Eurocurrency Rate for an Interest Period of one month. In the event the Issuing Bank shall have been reimbursed by other Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.04(e) for all or any portion of any drawing honored by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under this Section 2.04(e) with respect to such honored drawing such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (with respect to the Revolving Commitments) of all payments subsequently received by the Issuing Bank from the Foreign Borrower in reimbursement of such honored drawing when such payments are received. Any such distribution shall be made to a Lender at its primary address set forth below its name on Schedule 10.01(a) or at such other address as such Lender may request and a copy of such distribution shall be sent to such Lender if so requested.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of (i) the Foreign Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for drawings honored under the Letters of Credit issued by it and to repay any Revolving Loans made by Lenders pursuant to Section 2.04(d) and (ii) the Lenders under Section 2.04(e), in each case shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof under all circumstances including any of the following circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit; (B) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which the Foreign Borrower or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Bank, Lender or any other Person or, in the case of a Lender, against the Foreign Borrower, whether in connection herewith, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between the Foreign Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured); (C) any draft or other document presented under any 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; (D) payment by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document which does not substantially comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (E) any adverse change in the business, general affairs, assets, liabilities, operations, management, condition (financial or otherwise), stockholders’ equity, results of operations or value of any Loan Party; (F) any breach hereof or any other Loan Document by any party thereto; (G) the fact that an Event of Default or a Default shall have occurred and be continuing; or (H) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(g) Indemnification. Without duplication of any obligation of the Foreign Borrower under Section 10.02 or 10.03, in addition to amounts payable as provided herein, the Foreign Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Issuing Bank from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel) which the Issuing Bank may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit by the Issuing Bank to the Foreign Borrower or (ii) the failure of the Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under any such Letter of Credit as a result of any Governmental Act.

(h) Resignation and Removal of Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may resign as Issuing Bank upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Foreign Borrower. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Foreign Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank (provided, that no consent of the replaced Issuing Bank will be required if the replaced Issuing Bank has no Letters of Credit outstanding or reimbursement obligations with respect thereto outstanding) and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement or resignation shall become effective, the Foreign Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank. From and after the effective date of any such replacement or resignation, (i) any successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement or resignation of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced

Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto to the extent that Letters of Credit issued by it remain outstanding and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement or resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or to renew existing Letters of Credit.

Section 2.05 Pro Rata Shares; Availability of Funds.

(a) Pro Rata Shares. All Loans shall be made, and all participations purchased, by Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares of the applicable Class of Loans, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation required hereby nor shall any Term Loan Commitments or any Revolving Commitments of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation required hereby.

(b) Availability of Funds. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Credit Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Credit Date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such Credit Date and the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount on such Credit Date. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set by the Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three (3) Business Days and thereafter, if such Loan is in Dollars, at the Base Rate and if such Loan is in any other Approved Currency, at the rate certified by the Administrative Agent to be its cost of funds (from any source which it may reasonably select). If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the applicable Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent at the Base Rate if such Loan is in Dollars and at the rate certified by the Administrative Agent to be its cost of funds (from any source which it may reasonably select) if such Loan is in any other Approved Currency. Nothing in this Section 2.05(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Term Loan Commitments and Revolving Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that any Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

Section 2.06 Use of Proceeds.

(a) Use of Proceeds The proceeds of the relevant Loans advanced to the Borrowers on the Closing Date shall be applied by the Borrowers to (i) repay, retire or redeem Refinanced Indebtedness, including through the making of certain intercompany loans by the

Foreign Borrower to Grifols, Inc., a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Parent and (ii) pay fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Loan Documents and the Interim Loan Agreement.

(b) Post-Closing Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans, Letters of Credit, Incremental Term Loans and any utilization under any Ancillary Facility made after the Closing Date shall be applied by the applicable Borrower for working capital or general corporate purposes of the Parent and any of its Subsidiaries, including Permitted Acquisitions; provided, that in no event shall the Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans, Letters of Credit, Incremental Loans or any utilization under any Ancillary Facility be used for the payment of any Permitted Dividend. No portion of the proceeds of any Credit Extension shall be used in any manner that causes or might cause such Credit Extension or the application of such proceeds to violate Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X of the Board of Governors or any other regulation thereof or to violate the Exchange Act or similar law of other Relevant Jurisdiction.

Section 2.07 Evidence of Debt; Register; Notes.

(a) Lenders’ Evidence of Debt. Each Lender shall maintain on its internal records an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of each Borrower to such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on each Borrower, absent manifest error; provided, that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Revolving Commitment or any Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any Loans; provided, further, that in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern.

(b) Register. The Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall maintain at its Principal Office a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders and the Revolving Commitment and Loans of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register the Revolving Commitments and the Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on each Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error. Each Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as such Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.07, and each Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent the Administrative Agent serves in such capacity, the Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees”.

(c) Notes. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, or at any time thereafter, each applicable Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 10.06) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Closing Date, promptly after the Borrower Representative’s receipt of such

notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Tranche A Term Loans, Tranche B Term Loans, Incremental Term Loan, Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loan, as the case may be.

Section 2.08 Interest on Loans.

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

(i)	in the case of Tranche A Term Loans and Revolving Loans:

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

(B)	if a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate plus the Applicable Margin and plus Mandatory Costs, if any;

(ii)	in the case of Swing Line Loans, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and

(iii)	in the case of Tranche B Term Loans:

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

(B)	if a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate plus the Applicable Margin and plus Mandatory Costs, if any.

(b) The basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan (except a Swing Line Loan, which can be made and maintained as a Base Rate Loan only), and the Interest Period with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be selected by the applicable Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be. If on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which a Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice has not been delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day such Loan, if a Loan denominated in Dollars, shall be a Base Rate Loan and, if a Loan denominated in Euro or any Other Foreign Currency, shall be a Eurocurrency Rate Loan having an interest period of one month.

(c) In connection with Eurocurrency Rate Loans with respect to each of the Foreign Tranche B Term Loans, the Tranche A Term Loans and the U.S. Tranche B Term Loans, there shall be no more than eight (8) Interest Periods outstanding at any time under each such facility (or such greater number of Interest Periods as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent). In connection with Eurocurrency Rate Loans with respect to the Revolving Loans, there shall be no more than six (6) Interest Periods outstanding at any time under such facility (or such greater number of Interest Periods as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent). In the event the applicable Borrower fails to specify between a Base Rate Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate

Loan in the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice for any Loan denominated in Dollars, such Loan (if outstanding as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan) shall be automatically converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then-current Interest Period for such Loan (or if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan shall remain as, or (if not then outstanding) shall be made as, a Base Rate Loan). In the event the applicable Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Loan in the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month. As soon as practicable after 10:00 a.m. (New York City time), on each Interest Rate Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the Eurocurrency Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower Representative and each Lender.

(d) Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.08(a) shall be computed (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans on the basis of a 365-day or 366-day year, as the case may be, and (ii) in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, on the basis of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Term Loan, the last Interest Payment Date with respect to such Term Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

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

(f) The Foreign Borrower agrees to pay to the Issuing Bank, with respect to drawings honored under a Letter of Credit, interest on the amount paid by each the Issuing Bank in respect of each such honored drawing from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date such amount is reimbursed by or on behalf of the Foreign Borrower at a rate equal to (i) for the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the applicable Reimbursement Date, the rate of interest otherwise payable hereunder with respect to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans or, with respect to Letters of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars, Eurocurrency Rate Loans with an interest period of one month, and (ii) thereafter, a rate which is 2.00% per annum in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable hereunder with respect to such Revolving Loans.

(g) Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.08(f) shall be computed on the basis of a 365/366-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand is made, on the date on which the related drawing under a Letter of Credit is reimbursed in full. Promptly upon receipt by an Issuing Bank of any payment of interest pursuant to Section 2.08(f), the Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Lender, out of the interest received by the Issuing Bank in respect of the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date on which the Issuing Bank is reimbursed for the amount of such drawing (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of any Revolving Loans), the amount that such Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the letter of credit fee that would have been payable in respect of such Letter of Credit for such period if no drawing had been honored under such Letter of Credit. In the event an Issuing Bank shall have been reimbursed by Lenders for all or any portion of such honored drawing, the Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under Section 2.04(e) with respect to such honored drawing such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any interest received by the Issuing Bank in respect of that portion of such honored drawing so reimbursed by Lenders for the period from the date on which the Issuing Bank was so reimbursed by Lenders to but excluding the date on which such portion of such honored drawing is reimbursed by the Foreign Borrower.

(h) The rate and time of payment of interest in respect of any Ancillary Facility shall be determined by agreement between the relevant Ancillary Lender and the Foreign Borrower based on normal market rates and terms.

Section 2.09 Conversion/Continuation.

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

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

(ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $5,000,000 (or €5,000,000 with respect to any drawing in Euro) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 (or €1,000,000 with respect to any drawing in Euro) in excess of that amount as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan;

provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, no conversion or continuation of any Loan pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall affect the currency in which such Loan is denominated prior to any such conversion or continuation and each such Loan shall remain outstanding denominated in the currency originally issued.

(b) The applicable Borrower shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to the Administrative Agent with respect to Loans, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan) and at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan). Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any Eurocurrency Rate Loans, shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and each Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.

Section 2.10 Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) the overdue principal amount of all Loans outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any overdue interest payments on the Loans or any fees or other amounts owed hereunder, shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable on demand at a rate (the “Default Rate”) that is 2.00% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in the case of any such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is 2.00% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable for Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans); provided, that in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall thereupon become Base Rate Loans and shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is 2.00% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.10 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

Section 2.11 Fees. (a) The Foreign Borrower agrees to pay to Lenders (other than Defaulting Lenders) having Revolving Exposure:

(i) commitment fees equal to (A) the average of the daily difference between (1) the Revolving Commitments and (2) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of (x) all outstanding Revolving Loans plus (y) the Letter of Credit Usage, times (B) 0.50%;

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

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

(b) The Foreign Borrower agrees to pay directly to the Issuing Bank, for its own account, the following fees:

(i) a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum, times the actual aggregate daily maximum amount available to be drawn under all Letters of Credit (determined as of the close of business on any date of determination);

(ii) such documentary and processing charges for any issuance, amendment, transfer or payment of a Letter of Credit as are in accordance with the Issuing Bank’s standard schedule for such charges and as in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or payment, as the case may be.

(c) All fees referred to in Sections 2.11(a) and 2.11(b)(i) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year during the Revolving Commitment Period, or if such date is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date.

(d) [reserved]

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

(f) The rate and timing of fees in respect of any Ancillary Facility shall be determined by agreement between the relevant Ancillary Lender and the Foreign Borrower under such Ancillary Facility based on normal market rates and terms.

Section 2.13 Voluntary Prepayments/Commitment Reductions.

(a) Voluntary Prepayments.

(i) Any time and from time to time (A) with respect to Base Rate Loans, any Borrower may prepay any such Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part, in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; (B) with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans, any Borrower may prepay any such Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part in an aggregate minimum amount of, with respect to Loans denominated in Dollars and prepayments of Revolving Loans, $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount, and, with respect to Loans denominated in Euro or any other Approved Currency, €5,000,000 and integral multiples of €1,000,000 in excess of that amount (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may agree); and (C) with respect to Swing Line Loans, the Foreign Borrower may prepay any such Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part in an aggregate minimum amount of $250,000, and in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount;

(ii) All such prepayments shall be made (A) upon not less than one Business Day’s prior written notice in the case of Base Rate Loans; (B) upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (C) upon written notice on the date of prepayment, in the case of Swing Line Loans;

in each case given to the Administrative Agent or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, by 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) (or, with respect to repayments of Foreign Loans, 1:00 p.m. (London, England time)) on the date required (and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit such original notice for Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as the case may be, by telefacsimile or telephone to each Lender) or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. Upon the giving of any such notice, the principal amount of the Loans specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein. Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 2.15(a). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any notice of prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.13(a) may state that the effectiveness of such prepayment is conditioned upon the consummation of a refinancing, sale, change of control or other event specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the applicable Borrower (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date) if such condition is not satisfied, subject to payment of any costs referred to in Section 2.18 resulting therefrom.

(b) Voluntary Commitment Reductions.

(i) The Borrowers may, upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent (which original written notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit by telefacsimile or telephone to each applicable Lender), at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Revolving Commitments, in an amount up to the amount by which the Revolving Commitments exceed the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments, as applicable, at the time of such proposed termination or reduction; provided, that any such partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of, $5,000,000 (or €5,000,000 with respect to any drawing in Euro) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 (or €1,000,000 with respect to any drawing in Euro) in excess of that amount (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may agree).

(ii) The applicable Borrower’s notice to the Administrative Agent shall designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be effective on the date specified in the applicable Borrower’s notice and shall reduce the Revolving Commitments of each Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share thereof.

(c) Below-Par Purchases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.13 or any other provision of this Agreement and without otherwise limiting the rights in respect of prepayments of the Loans of the Borrowers, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, either Borrower may repurchase outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) on the following basis:

(i) The U.S. Borrower may make one or more offers, and the Foreign Borrower may make one or more offers, (each, a “U.S. Offer”) to repurchase all or any portion of the U.S. Tranche B Term Loans or the Tranche A Term Loans, respectively (such Term Loans, the “U.S. Offer Loans”), and the Foreign Borrower may make one or more offers (each, a “Foreign Offer” and, together with each U.S. Offer, an “Offer”) to repurchase all or any portion of the Foreign Tranche B Term Loans (such Term Loans, the “Foreign Offer Loans” and, together with the U.S. Offer Loans, the “Offer Loans”); provided, that (A) the applicable Borrower delivers notice of its intent to make such Offer to the Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days in advance of the launch of any proposed Offer, (B) upon the launch of such proposed Offer, the applicable Borrower delivers an irrevocable notice of such Offer to the Administrative Agent and all applicable Term Lenders (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) indicating (1) the last date on which such Offer may be accepted, (2) the maximum dollar amount of such U.S. Offer or maximum Euro amount of such Foreign Offer, as applicable, and (3) the repurchase price per dollar of principal amount of such U.S. Offer Loans or the repurchase price per Euro of principal amount of such Foreign Offer Loans, as applicable, at which the applicable Borrower is willing to repurchase such Offer Loans (which price shall be below par); (C) the maximum dollar amount of each U.S. Offer and the maximum Euro amount of each Foreign Offer shall be an amount reasonably determined by the applicable Borrower and in consultation with the Administrative Agent prior to the making of any such Offer; (D) the applicable Borrower shall hold such Offer

open for a minimum period of days to be reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower prior to the making of any such Offer; (E) a Term Lender who elects to participate in the Offer may choose to sell all or part of such Term Lender’s Offer Loans; (F) such Offer shall be made to all Term Lenders holding the Offer Loans of the applicable Class on a pro rata basis in accordance with the respective principal amount then due and owing to the Term Lenders; provided, further that, if any Term Lender elects not to participate in the Offer, either in whole or in part, the amount of such Term Lender’s Offer Loans not being tendered shall be excluded in calculating the pro rata amount applicable to the balance of such Offer Loans and (G) such Offer shall be conducted pursuant to such procedures the Administrative Agent may establish in consultation with the applicable Borrower (which shall be consistent with this Section 2.13(c)) and that a Lender must follow in order to have its Offer Loans repurchased, which procedures may include a requirement that the applicable Borrower represent and warrant that it does not have any material non-public information with respect to any Loan Party (or its Subsidiaries) that could be material to a Lender’s decision to participate in such Offer;

(ii) With respect to all repurchases made by the applicable Borrower such repurchases shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.13 in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loans, provided, that such repurchases shall not be subject to the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.13 or Section 2.17;

(iii) Upon the purchase by the applicable Borrower of any Term Loans, (A) automatically and without the necessity of any notice or any other action, all principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loans so repurchased shall be deemed to have been paid for all purposes and shall be cancelled and no longer outstanding for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Loan Documents (and in connection with any Term Loan purchased pursuant to this Section 2.13(c), the Administrative Agent is authorized to make appropriate entries in the Register to reflect such cancellation) and (B) the applicable Borrower will promptly advise the Administrative Agent of the total amount of Offer Loans that were repurchased from each Lender who elected to participate in the Offer;

(iv) Failure by the Borrowers to make any payment to a Lender required by an agreement permitted by this Section 2.13(c) shall not constitute an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a);

(v) No proceeds of any Revolving Loans may be used to effectuate a purchase of any Offer Loans;

(vi) After giving effect to each purchase of an Offer Loan, all cash and Cash Equivalents not subject to any Lien (other than Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent or Liens permitted by Section 6.02(r)) shall equal at least $50,000,000;

(vii) Such Offer shall not have been deemed to constitute a “distressed exchange” by Xxxxx’x or S&P;

(viii) With respect to all purchases of Term Loans of any Class or Classes made by the applicable Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.13(c), the applicable Borrower shall pay on the settlement date of each such purchase all principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the purchased Term Loans of the applicable Class or Classes up to the settlement date of such purchase; and

(ix) As of the launch date of any purchase and the effective date of such purchase, the Borrowers are not in possession of any information regarding any Loan Party, its assets, its ability to perform its Obligations or any other matter that may be material to a decision by any Lender to participate in any purchase, or participate in any of the transactions contemplated thereby, that has not previously been disclosed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

(d) Tranche B Term Loan Call Protection. In the event that (i) all or any portion of the Tranche B Term Loans are (A) voluntarily prepaid or mandatorily prepaid pursuant to Section 2.13 with the proceeds of other Indebtedness having a weighted average yield that is less than the weighted average yield applicable to the Tranche B Term Loans so prepaid or (B) repriced or effectively refinanced through any waiver, consent or amendment of the Tranche B Term Loans (which repricing or refinancing would have the effect of reducing the stated rate of interest with respect to the Tranche B Term Loans so repriced or refinanced) or (ii) a Term Lender is replaced as a result of the mandatory assignment of its Tranche B Term Loans in the circumstances described in Section 2.23 following the failure of such Term Lender to consent to an amendment of this Agreement that would have the effect of reducing the weighted average yield with respect to the Tranche B Term Loans of such Term Lender, in each case, for any reason prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, such prepayments, effective refinancings, refinancings or, solely with respect to such replaced Term Lender, mandatory assignments, will be made at 101.0% of the amount prepaid, effectively refinanced, refinanced or mandatorily assigned and, with respect to amounts repriced, at a premium of 1.00% on the amount so repriced.

Section 2.14 Mandatory Prepayments/Commitment Reductions.

(a) Asset Dispositions. No later than the third Business Day following the date of receipt by any Group Member of any Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Asset Disposition permitted pursuant to Sections 6.08(d), the Loans shall be repaid as set forth in Section 2.15(b) in an aggregate amount equal to 100.0% of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, that so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the delivery of the notice described below or at the proposed time of the investment of such Net Cash Proceeds as described below, each Borrower shall have the option, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, directly or through one or more of its Subsidiaries, to invest such Net Cash Proceeds within three hundred sixty-five (365) days of receipt thereof in assets used or useful in the business of any Group Member to the extent such investments are otherwise permitted under this Agreement; provided, however, that pending any such investment all such Net Cash Proceeds may be applied to prepay the Revolving Loans to the extent outstanding (without a reduction in the Revolving Commitments).

(b) Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds. No later than the third Business Day following the date of receipt by any Group Member, or the Administrative Agent as loss payee, of any Net Cash Proceeds of a Casualty Event, the Loans shall be repaid as set forth in Section 2.15(b) in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, that so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the delivery of the notice described below or at the proposed time of the investment of such Net Cash Proceeds as described below, each Borrower shall have the option, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, directly or through one or more of its Subsidiaries to invest such Net Cash Proceeds within three hundred sixty-five (365) days of receipt thereof in assets used or useful in the business of any Group Member, which investment may include the repair, restoration or replacement of the applicable assets thereof; provided, however, that pending any such investment all such Net Cash Proceeds, as the case may be, may be applied to prepay the Revolving Loans to the extent outstanding (without a reduction in Revolving Commitments).

(c) Issuance or Incurrence of Debt. On the date of receipt by any Group Member of any Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of any Indebtedness of any Group Member (other than with respect to any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 6.01, but including Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 6.01(m) and Section 6.01(q)), the Borrowers shall prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 2.15(b) in an aggregate amount equal to 100.0% of such Net Cash Proceeds.

(d) Consolidated Excess Cash Flow. In the event that there shall be Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for any Fiscal Year (commencing with the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2013), the Borrowers shall, no later than one hundred and five (105) days after the end of such Fiscal Year, prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 2.15(b) in an aggregate amount equal to (i) the Applicable Sweep Percentage of such Consolidated Excess Cash Flow minus (ii) voluntary repayments of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.13(a) (excluding (x) repayments of Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans except to the extent the Revolving Commitments are permanently reduced in connection with such repayments and (y) repayments of Loans made with the Net Cash Proceeds of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness).

(e) Change of Control. In the event that a Change of Control shall occur, not later than the Business Day next following such Change of Control, the Borrowers shall immediately prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 2.15(b) and the Commitments of each Lender shall be reduced to zero.

The Foreign Borrower shall from time to time prepay first, the Swing Line Loans, and second, the Revolving Loans (or cash collateralize or backstop any Letter of Credit to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Bank) to the extent necessary so that the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments shall not at any time exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, mandatory prepayments of Revolving Loans that would otherwise be required pursuant to this Section 2.14(f) solely as a result of fluctuations in Exchange Rates from time to time shall only be required to be made on the last Business Day of each month on the basis of the Exchange Rate in effect on such Business Day.

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

Section 2.15 Application of Prepayments; Application of Proceeds of Collateral.

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

first, to repay outstanding Swing Line Loans to the full extent thereof;

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

third, to prepay the Term Loans on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof); and further applied on a pro rata basis to the remaining scheduled Installments of principal of each tranche of Term Loan;

in each case, for the avoidance of doubt, allocated on a pro rata basis among the applicable U.S. Loans and Foreign Loans.

(b) Application of Mandatory Prepayments by Type of Loans. Any amount required to be paid pursuant to Sections 2.14(a) through 2.14(e) shall be applied as follows:

first, to repay Term Loans on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof) and further applied first to the next eight scheduled principal payments in respect of the Term Loans on a pro rata basis in direct order of maturity and second on a pro rata basis to the remaining scheduled Installments of principal of each tranche of Term Loan, in each case, for the avoidance of doubt, allocated on a pro rata basis among the applicable U.S. Loans and Foreign Loans; provided if at the time any amount is required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.14(a) or (b), any Borrower is required to offer to repurchase Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness with any Net Cash Proceeds specified therein (such Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt required to be offered to be so repurchased, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then such Borrower may apply such Net Cash Proceeds on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time; provided that the portion of such

Net Cash Proceeds allocated to Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be allocated to the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans and to the repurchase of Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to Section 2.14(a) or (b), as applicable, shall be reduced accordingly; provided further that to the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such Indebtedness purchased, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof; and

second, to repay outstanding Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof.

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

(d) Application of Payments After an Event of Default; Application of Proceeds of Collateral. All payments made by any Borrower after any Event of Default and all proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by the Collateral Agent against, the Obligations in the following order of priority: first, to the payment of all documented costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to the Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and all amounts for which the Collateral Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder (in its capacity as the Collateral Agent and not as a Lender) and all advances made by the Collateral Agent hereunder for the account of the applicable Loan Party, and to the payment of all documented costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under the Credit Agreement, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof; second, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment of all other Obligations for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Lender Counterparties; and third, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment to or upon the order of the applicable Loan Party or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

(e) Waivable Mandatory Prepayment. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event the Borrowers are required to make any mandatory prepayment (a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Tranche B Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.13 (other than Section 2.13(g)), not less than five Business Days prior to the date (the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which the Borrowers are required to make such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, the Borrower Representative shall notify Administrative Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Tranche B Term Loan of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata

Share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and such Lender’s option to refuse such amount. Each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of its election to do so on or before the third Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender which does not notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the third Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option). On the Required Prepayment Date, the Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent the amount of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, which amount shall be applied (i) in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment payable to those Lenders that have elected not to exercise such option, to prepay the Tranche B Term Loans of such Lenders (which prepayment shall be applied to the scheduled Installments of principal of the Tranche B Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.15(b)), and (ii) in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment otherwise payable to those Lenders that have elected to exercise such option, to prepay the Tranche A Term Loans (which prepayment shall be further applied to the scheduled Installments of principal of the Tranche A Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.15(b)).

Section 2.16 General Provisions Regarding Payments.

(a) All payments by the Borrowers of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in the Approved Currency for the Loans and Commitments related thereto, in each case in same day funds, without defense, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due at the Principal Office designated by the Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders. For purposes of computing interest and fees, funds received by the Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by the Borrowers on the next succeeding Business Day.

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

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

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

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

(f) Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge such Borrower’s accounts with the Administrative Agent in order to cause timely payment to be made to the Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that purpose).

(g) The Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower hereunder that is not made in same day funds prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time), to be a non-conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to the Borrower Representative and each applicable Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment is non-conforming. Any non-conforming payment may constitute or become a Default or Event of Default in accordance with the terms of Section 8.01(a). Interest shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the Default Rate from the date such amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full.

(h) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and not otherwise been waived, and the maturity of the Obligations shall have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8.01, all payments or proceeds received by Agents hereunder in respect of any of the Obligations, shall be applied in accordance with the application arrangements described in Section 2.15(d).

Section 2.17 Ratable Sharing. Lenders to the U.S. Borrower agree among themselves, on the one hand, and the Lenders to the Foreign Borrower agree among themselves, on the other hand, that, except as otherwise provided in the Security Documents with respect to amounts realized from the exercise of rights with respect to Liens on the Collateral, if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise (including amounts received by any such Lender in excess of those received by other Lenders as a result of the application of article 91.7 of the Spanish Insolvency Law (Law 22/2003 of 9th July)), or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, amounts payable in respect of Letters of Credit, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to

purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided, that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or examinership of any Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Each Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by any Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder. The provisions of this Section 2.17 shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or payments made with proceeds of Collateral applied as set forth in Section 2.15(d), (ii) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or other Obligations owed to it. For the avoidance of doubt, no Lender to the Foreign Borrower shall make payments to a Lender to the U.S. Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.17.

Section 2.18 Making or Maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Loans.

(a) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event of any Market Disruption, the Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrowers and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) with respect to Loans denominated in Dollars, (A) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, Eurocurrency Rate Loans until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist and (B) any Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by the Borrowers with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by the Borrowers, and (ii) with respect to Loans denominated in Euro or Other Foreign Currency, if the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers so require, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers will negotiate in good faith for a period of not more than thirty (30) days in order to agree on a mutually acceptable substitute basis for calculating the interest payable on the affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans and, (A) if a substitute basis is agreed within that thirty (30) day period between the Administrative Agent (with the consent of all the Lenders holding such Eurocurrency Loans) and the Borrowers, then it shall apply in accordance with its terms (and may be retrospective to the beginning of the relevant Interest Period) and (B) unless and until a substitute basis is so agreed, the interest payable to such Lenders on the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loans for the relevant Interest Period will be the rate notified to the Administrative Agent by that Lender to be its cost of funds (from any source which it may reasonably select) plus the Applicable Margin and, if applicable, Mandatory Costs.

(b) Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any law, treaty, governmental rules, regulation or guideline or order, or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain

Eurocurrency Rate Loans as contemplated by this Agreement (such Lender an “Affected Lender”), (i) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans, continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall forthwith be canceled until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain the affected Loan and (ii) with respect to any such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.18(c).

(c) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. The applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by such Lender to Lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurocurrency Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Borrowing Notice, or a conversion to or continuation of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any conversion of, any of its Eurocurrency Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan; or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurocurrency Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the applicable Borrower or the Borrower Representative; provided that for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the applicable Borrower to the Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.18(c), each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank Eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded; and provided further that amounts payable under this Section 2.18(c) shall be calculated without regard to the last sentence of the definition of “Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate”.

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

(e) Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant Eurocurrency Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurocurrency deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the first sentence of the definition of “Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate” in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurocurrency deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to the relevant office of such Lender; provided, that each Lender may fund

each of its Eurocurrency Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19.

Section 2.19 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a) Compensation For Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.20 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender (which term shall include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.19(a)) shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order after the Closing Date), or any determination of a court or Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the Closing Date, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the Closing Date by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law): (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (C) Connection Income Taxes) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate); or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder or the London interbank market or the relevant off-shore interbank market for any Other Foreign Currency; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or acquiring participations in, issuing or maintaining Letters of Credit hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, the applicable Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the written statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.19(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

(b) Capital Adequacy Adjustment. In the event that any Lender (which term shall include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.19(b)) shall have determined that

the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability after the Closing Date of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans or Revolving Commitment or Letters of Credit, or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans or the Letters of Credit, to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five (5) Business Days after receipt by the Borrower Representative from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as shall compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.19(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

Section 2.20 Taxes; Withholding, Etc.

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

(b) Withholding of Taxes. If any Withholding Agent is required by law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) to make any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes from any sum paid or payable by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (which term shall include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.20(b)) under any of the Loan Documents: (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such withholding or deduction, (ii) the Withholding Agent shall pay any such Taxes on or before the date such payment is required by Law; (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by such Loan Party shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of such deduction or withholding, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required or made (after taking into account any additional deduction or withholding or payment of any Indemnified Taxes on such increased payment); and (iv) within thirty (30) days after the due date of payment of any Indemnified Tax which it is required by clause (ii) above to pay, the applicable Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority.

(i) Any Lender (which term shall include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.20(c)) that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding in respect of payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable requirements of law and thereafter when reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation and information prescribed by applicable requirements of law as will permit (as reasonably determined by the Borrowers in their sole discretion) such payments to be made without withholding (including back-up withholding) or at a reduced rate of withholding and to determine whether information reporting is required in respect of the Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.20(c)(ii), Section 2.20(c)(iii), Section 2.20(c)(iv) or Section 2.20(c)(v) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

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

(iii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall, to the extent it is permitted by applicable law, deliver to the Administrative Agent for transmission to the Borrowers, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent (each in its sole discretion acting reasonably), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest

under any Loan Document, executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or

(4) to the extent that a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form W8-ECI, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner as applicable; provided that if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate.

(iv) Each Lender that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for United States federal income tax purposes (a “U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers on or prior to the Closing Date (or, if later, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement), two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender. Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States withholding matters under the Internal Revenue Code pursuant to this Section 2.20(c)(iii) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, that such Lender shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers two (2) new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8IMY, W-8EXP or W-9 (or, in each case, any successor form thereto) properly completed and duly executed by such Lender.

(v) Each Lender that will qualify for an exemption from, or reduction in, deduction or withholding of any Taxes solely because it is a Treaty Lender shall

cooperate with the Borrower in completing any procedural formalities (including completing and executing any documentation) necessary for the Borrower to obtain authorization to make payments to such Lender free from any deduction or withholding of any Taxes.

(vi) With the exceptions of the obligations of a Lender under Section 2.20(h) and 10.06(f) below, each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

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

(e) The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and any Lender (which term shall include Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.20(e)) for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes for which additional amounts are required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.20(b) and Other Taxes (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, any Excluded Taxes), in each case arising in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including any such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.20) paid by the Administrative Agent or Lender or any of their respective Affiliates and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Such Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, shall, at a Borrower’s request, provide such Borrower with a written statement thereof setting forth the basis and calculation of such amounts (including any proposed indemnifiable expenses), which written statement shall be conclusive absent manifest error with respect to any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes and shall, at a Borrower’s written request and solely at such Borrower’s expense, make commercially reasonable efforts to provide other documentation or cooperation reasonably necessary for such Borrower to contest in good faith the imposition of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes. Such payment shall be due within fifteen (15) days of such Loan Party’s receipt of such certificate. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrowers shall not be required to indemnify any Lender or Administrative Agent under this Section 2.20(e) with respect to any Taxes to the extent such indemnification would result in duplication because such Taxes have been compensated for by the payment of any additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.20(b) or Other Taxes previously paid pursuant to Section 2.20.

(f) If any Lender or Administrative Agent determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to it by the Borrowers or Guarantors pursuant to this Section 2.20, it shall (if such Lender in

its reasonable discretion determines that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund)) remit such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) as soon as practicable after it is determined that such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) pertains to Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrowers or Guarantors under this Section 2.20 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) plus any interest included in such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) by the relevant taxing authority attributable thereto) to the Borrowers or Guarantors, net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant taxing authority with respect to such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund)). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph (f), the payment of which would place the Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. The Borrowers and such Guarantors, as applicable, upon the request of such Lender or Administrative Agent, agree to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid over to the Borrowers or Guarantors (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant taxing authority) to such Lender or Administrative Agent in the event such Lender or Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) to a taxing authority.

(g) The obligations of the Loan Parties to pay additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.20(b) and to provide indemnity pursuant to Section 2.20(e) shall be applied in a manner so as not to cause duplicative payments.

(h) Each Lender shall, which becomes a party to this agreement, on the day on which it is entered or upon succeeding to an interest in the Commitments and/or Loans to the Foreign Borrower hereunder, confirm whether or not it is a Qualifying Lender in accordance with Section 10.06(f). Each such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower if there is any change in their status as a Qualifying Lender.

Section 2.21 Obligation to Mitigate. Each Lender (which term shall include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.21) agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans or Letters of Credit, as the case may be, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20, it shall, to the extent not inconsistent with any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions through another office of such Lender or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its reasonable

discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Revolving Commitments, Loans or Letters of Credit through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Revolving Commitments, Loans or Letters of Credit or the interests of such Lender; provided, that such Lender shall not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.21 unless the Borrower Representative agrees to pay commercially reasonable incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by the Borrower Representative pursuant to this Section 2.21 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.22 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.04 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.22(d); fourth, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.22(d); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to a Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal

amount of any Loans or reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied and waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the applicable Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iii). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.22(a)(i) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(ii) Certain Fees.

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee pursuant to Section 2.11(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and no Borrower shall be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender); provided such Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive fees pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(ii) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.22(d).

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

(iii) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower Representative shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate

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

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

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

(c) New Swing Line Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan and (ii) no Issuing Bank shall 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.

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

(i) Grant of Security Interest. The Foreign Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, and agrees to maintain, a first

priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit, to be applied pursuant to clause (ii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Foreign Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

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

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

Section 2.23 Removal or Replacement of a Lender. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i) any Lender (an “Increased-Cost Lender”) shall give notice to the Borrowers that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20, (ii) the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect, and (iii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five (5) Business Days after the Borrower Representative’s request for such withdrawal; or (b) (i) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, (ii) such Defaulting Lender’s default shall remain in effect and (iii) such Defaulting Lender shall fail to cure the default as a result of which it has become a Defaulting Lender within five (5) Business Days after the Borrowers’ request that it cure such default; or (c) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.05(b), the consent of Required Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each such Increased-Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), the Borrowers may, by giving

written notice to the Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loans and its Revolving Commitments, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06 and the applicable Borrower shall pay the fees, if any, payable thereunder in connection with any such assignment from an Increased-Cost Lender, a Non-Consenting Lender or a Defaulting Lender; provided, that (i) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to the Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender, (B) an amount equal to all unreimbursed drawings on Letters of Credit that have been funded by such Terminated Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.11, such amounts to be calculated based on the Dollar Equivalent thereof with respect to the U.S. Term Loans or Revolving Commitments and based on the Euro Equivalent thereof with respect to the Foreign Term Loans; (ii) on the date of such assignment, the applicable Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.13(d), to the extent applicable, 2.18(c), 2.19 or 2.20; or otherwise as if it were a prepayment and (iii) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender; provided, that the applicable Borrower may not make such election with respect to any Terminated Lender that is also an Issuing Bank unless, prior to the effectiveness of such election, the applicable Borrower shall have caused each outstanding Letter of Credit issued thereby to be cancelled. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Revolving Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, that any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender. Each Lender agrees that if a Borrower exercises its option hereunder to cause an assignment by such Lender as a Non-Consenting Lender or Terminated Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (but not obligated) and is authorized by each Lender (which authorization is irrevocable and is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver such documentation as may be required to give effect to an assignment in accordance with Section 10.06 on behalf of a Non-Consenting Lender or Terminated Lender and any such documentation so executed by the Administrative Agent shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 10.06. Any Borrower’s right to replace a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.23 is, and shall be, in addition to, and not in lieu of, all other rights and remedies available to any Borrower against such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, at law, in equity or by statute.

Section 2.24 Ancillary Facilities.(a) Type of Facility. An Ancillary Facility may be by way of: (i) an overdraft facility; (ii) a guarantee, bonding, documentary or stand-by letter of credit facility; (iii) a short term loan facility; (iv) a derivatives facility; (v) a foreign exchange facility; or (vi) any other facility or accommodation required in connection with the business of the Group and which is agreed by the Foreign Borrower with an Ancillary Lender.

(b) Availability.

(i) If the Foreign Borrower and a Lender agree and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, such Lender may provide an Ancillary Facility on a bilateral basis in place of all or part of that Lender’s unutilized Revolving Commitment (which, except for the purposes of determining the Required Lenders and for the purpose of Section 2.23, in each case, shall be reduced by the amount of the Ancillary Commitment under that Ancillary Facility).

(ii) An Ancillary Facility shall not be made available unless, not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Ancillary Commencement Date for such Ancillary Facility, the Administrative Agent has been notified in writing by the Borrower Representative that such Ancillary Facility has been established and specifying (A) the proposed Ancillary Commencement Date and expiration date of the Ancillary Facility, (B) the proposed type of Ancillary Facility to be provided, (C) the proposed Ancillary Lender, (D) the proposed Ancillary Commitment, the maximum amount of the Ancillary Facility and, if the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, its maximum gross amount (that amount being the “Designated Gross Amount”) and its maximum net amount (that amount being the “Designated Net Amount”), (E) the proposed currency of the Ancillary Facility (if not denominated in Euro or U.S. Dollars) and (F) the Revolving Commitments to which such Ancillary Facility relates, and the Borrower Representative shall have provided any other information which the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the Ancillary Facility.

(iii) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Ancillary Lender and the other Lenders of the establishment of an Ancillary Facility. Subject to compliance with clause (b)(ii) above, (A) the Lender concerned will become an Ancillary Lender and (B) the Ancillary Facility will be available, with effect from the date agreed by the Borrower Representative and the Ancillary Lender.

(iv) No amendment or waiver of a term of any Ancillary Facility shall require the consent of any Lender other than the relevant Ancillary Lender unless such amendment or waiver itself relates to or gives rise to a matter which would require an amendment of or under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, under this Section 2.24). In such a case, the provisions of this Agreement with regard to amendments and waivers will apply.

(i) Except as provided below, the terms of any Ancillary Facility will be those agreed by the Ancillary Lender and the Foreign Borrower; provided that such terms (A) must be based upon normal commercial terms at that time (except as varied by this Agreement); (B) may allow only the Foreign Borrower to use the Ancillary Facility; (C) may not allow the Ancillary Outstandings to exceed the Ancillary Commitment; and (D) shall require that the Ancillary Commitment shall be reduced to zero, and that all Ancillary Outstandings shall be repaid (or cash collateralized in a manner acceptable to the applicable Ancillary Lender) not later than the Revolving Commitment Termination Date (or such earlier date as the Revolving Commitment of the relevant Ancillary Lender is reduced to zero).

(ii) If there is any inconsistency between any term of an Ancillary Facility and any term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail except for (A) Section 2.08(d) which shall not prevail for the purposes of calculating fees, interest or commission relating to an Ancillary Facility; (B) an Ancillary Facility comprising more than one account where the terms of the Ancillary Documents shall prevail to the extent required to permit the netting of balances on those accounts; and (C) where the relevant term of this Agreement would be contrary to, or inconsistent with, the law governing the relevant Ancillary Document, in which case that term of this Agreement shall not prevail.

(iii) Interest, commission and fees on Ancillary Facilities are dealt with in Sections 2.08(h) and 2.11(f).

(d) Repayment of Ancillary Facilities.

(i) An Ancillary Facility shall cease to be available on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date or such earlier date on which its expiration occurs or on which it is cancelled in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(ii) If an Ancillary Facility expires in accordance with its terms, the Ancillary Commitment of the Ancillary Lender shall be reduced to zero (and such Lender’s Revolving Commitment shall be increased accordingly).

(iii) No Ancillary Lender may demand repayment or prepayment of any amounts or demand cash collateralization for any liabilities made available or incurred by it under its Ancillary Facility (except where the Ancillary Facility is provided on a net limit basis to the extent required to bring any gross outstandings down to the net limit) unless (A) the Revolving Commitments have been cancelled in full, or all outstanding applicable Revolving Loans have become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or the Administrative Agent has declared all outstanding applicable Revolving Loans immediately due and payable, or the expiration date of the Ancillary Facility occurs; (B) it becomes unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction for the Ancillary Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund, issue or maintain its participation in its Ancillary Facility; or (C) the Ancillary Outstandings (if any) under that Ancillary Facility can be refinanced by an applicable Revolving Loan and the Ancillary Lender gives sufficient notice to enable an applicable Revolving Loan to be made to refinance those Ancillary Outstandings.

(iv) For the purposes of determining whether or not the Ancillary Outstandings under an Ancillary Facility mentioned in clause (d)(iii)(C) above can be refinanced by an applicable Revolving Loan, (A) the Revolving Commitment of the Ancillary Lender will be increased by the amount of its Ancillary Commitment; and (B) the applicable Revolving Loan may (so long as clause (d)(iii)(A) above does not apply) be made irrespective of whether a Default or Event of Default is outstanding or any other applicable condition precedent is not satisfied (but only to the extent that the proceeds are applied in refinancing those Ancillary Outstandings) and irrespective of whether the Foreign Borrower shall have delivered a Borrowing Notice.

100

(v) On the making of a Revolving Loan to refinance Ancillary Outstandings, (A) each Lender will participate in such Revolving Loan on a pro rata basis in accordance with its respective Revolving Commitment (as determined by the Administrative Agent); and (B) the relevant Ancillary Facility shall be cancelled.

(vi) In relation to an Ancillary Facility which comprises an overdraft facility where a Designated Net Amount has been established, the Ancillary Lender providing that Ancillary Facility shall only be obliged to take into account for the purposes of calculating compliance with the Designated Net Amount those credit balances which it is permitted to take into account by the then current law and regulations in relation to its reporting of exposures to applicable regulatory authorities as netted for capital adequacy purposes.

(e) Ancillary Outstandings. The Foreign Borrower and each Ancillary Lender agrees with and for the benefit of each Lender that (i) the Ancillary Outstandings under any Ancillary Facility provided by that Ancillary Lender shall not exceed the Ancillary Commitment applicable to that Ancillary Facility and where the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, Ancillary Outstandings under that Ancillary Facility shall not exceed the Designated Net Amount in respect of that Ancillary Facility; and (ii) where all or part of the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, the Ancillary Outstandings (calculated on the basis that the words in brackets in paragraph (a) of the definition of that term were deleted) shall not exceed the Designated Gross Amount applicable to that Ancillary Facility.

(f) Information. The Foreign Borrower and each Ancillary Lender shall, promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent, supply the Administrative Agent with any information relating to the operation of an Ancillary Facility (including the Ancillary Outstandings) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time. The Foreign Borrower consents to all such information being released to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

(g) Revolving Commitment Amounts. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, each Lender shall ensure that at all times its Revolving Commitment is not less than its Ancillary Commitment.

Section 2.25 Incremental Facilities.

(a) Either Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent at any time after the Closing Date elect to request (A) prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, an increase to the existing Revolving Commitments (any such increase, the “Incremental Revolving Commitments”) and/or (B) the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “Incremental Term Loan Commitments”), by an amount not in excess of the Incremental Amount and not less than $25,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), and integral multiples of $10,000,000 in excess of that amount. Each such notice shall specify (A) the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the applicable Borrower proposes that the Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be effective, which shall be a date not

101

less than 10 Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and (B) the identity of each Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, an “Incremental Revolving Loan Lender” or “Incremental Term Loan Lender”, as applicable) to whom such Borrower proposes any portion of such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, be allocated and the amounts of such allocations; provided that the Administrative Agent may elect or decline to arrange such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments in its sole discretion and any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide an Incremental Revolving Commitment or an Incremental Term Loan Commitment. Such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that (1) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable; (2) both before and after giving effect to the making of any Series of Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 shall be satisfied; (3) the Parent shall be in pro forma compliance with Section 6.07 as of the last day of the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable (assuming that (x) any such Incremental Revolving Commitments are fully drawn and (y) the proceeds of such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments are not included as unrestricted cash in the definition of “Consolidated Total Debt”); (4) the Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the applicable Borrower, the Incremental Revolving Loan Lender or Incremental Term Loan Lender, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and each Incremental Revolving Loan Lender and Incremental Term Loan Lender shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.20(c); (5) the applicable Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.18(c) in connection with the Incremental Revolving Commitments; (6) the applicable Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents (including modifications of Mortgages and title insurance endorsements or policies) as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction; and (7) the applicable Borrower shall have paid all fees and expenses owing to the Agents and the Lenders in respect of such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments. Any Incremental Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated a separate series (a “Series”) of Incremental Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b) On any Increased Amount Date on which Incremental Revolving Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (a) each of the Lenders with Revolving Commitments of the same Class shall assign to each of the Incremental Revolving Loan Lenders, and each of the Incremental Revolving Loan Lenders shall purchase from each of such Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the applicable Revolving Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans will be held by existing Lenders with Revolving Commitments of the same Class and Incremental Revolving Loan Lenders ratably in accordance with their

102

Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such Incremental Revolving Commitments to the Revolving Commitments of the applicable Class, (b) each Incremental Revolving Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Commitment of the applicable Class and each Loan made thereunder (an “Incremental Revolving Loan”) shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Loan of the applicable Class and (c) each Incremental Revolving Loan Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the Incremental Revolving Commitment and all matters relating thereto.

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

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

(e) The terms and provisions of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments of any Series shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Joinder Agreement, identical to the Tranche B Term Loans of the same Class. The terms and provisions of the Incremental Revolving Loans shall be identical to the Revolving Loans of the same Class. In the case of any Incremental Term Loans, (i) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of all Incremental Term Loans of any Series shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Tranche B Terms Loans (provided that, in calculating the Weighted Average Life to Maturity, the effect of application of prepayments to future amortization payments shall be disregarded), (ii) the applicable Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date of each Series shall be no earlier than the final maturity of the Tranche B Term Loans, and (iii) the yield and all other terms applicable to the Incremental Term Loans of each Series shall be determined by the Borrower Representative and the applicable new Lenders and shall be set forth in each applicable Joinder Agreement; provided, however, that the yield applicable to the Incremental Term Loans (after giving effect to all rate floors and all fees or original issue discount payable with respect to such Incremental Term Loans (and excluding for the avoidance of doubt, any underwriting or similar fees), as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, shall not be greater than the applicable yield (including the Applicable Margin and rate floor and any original issue discount or fees payable in connection with the initial issuance of such Tranche B Term Loans of the same currency (but excluding for the avoidance of doubt any underwriting or similar fees))) payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement as amended through the date of such calculation with respect to such Tranche B Term Loans, plus 0.50% per annum unless (i) the interest rate with respect to such Tranche B Term Loans of the same currency is increased so as to cause the then applicable interest rate under this Agreement on

103

such Tranche B Term Loans to be not more than 0.50% less than the yield then applicable to the Incremental Term Loans (after giving effect to all rate floors and all fees or original issue discount payable with respect to such Incremental Term Loans) and (ii) the interest rate with respect to Tranche B Term Loans in any other currency, Tranche A Term Loans and Revolving Loans is increased by an amount equal to the amount of any increase in the interest rate for such Tranche B Term Loans pursuant to clause (i). Any Incremental Revolving Loans will be documented solely as an increase to the Revolving Commitments of the same Class without any change in terms, other than any change that is more favorable to the Revolving Lenders and applies equally to all Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments of the same Class. Each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable Incremental Revolving Loan Lender or Incremental Term Loan Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent to effect the provisions of this Section 2.25.

Section 2.26 Refinancing Amendment.

(a) Any Borrower may from time to time, pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.26, obtain from any Lender or any Refinancing Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of all or a portion of the Loans and Commitments of any Class then outstanding under this Agreement in the form of Other Refinancing Loans or Other Refinancing Commitments, in each case, pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (i) will rank pari passu or junior in right of payment and of security with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder; (ii) will have such pricing, premiums and optional prepayment or redemption terms as may be agreed by the applicable Borrower and the Lenders thereof; and (iii) 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.

(b) 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 3.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 3.01. Any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.26 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $25,000,000. 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 shall be deemed 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 and Commitments subject thereto as Other Refinancing Loans and/or Other Refinancing Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.26. This Section 2.26 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.17 or 10.05 to the contrary.

104

Section 2.27 Extensions of Loans and Commitments.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, pursuant to one or more written offers (each an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the applicable Borrower to all Lenders holding Loans and Commitments under any Class that is proposed to be extended under this Section 2.27, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the relative principal amounts of the outstanding Loans of each Lender in such Class) and on the same terms to each such Lender, such Borrower may from time to time offer to extend the maturity date for, and otherwise modify the terms of, such Loans and/or Commitments (each such modification, an “Extension”). In connection with each Extension, the applicable Borrower will provide the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Lenders of the applicable Class) at least 10 days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice of such Extension, including the applicable Class or Classes to be extended and the requested new maturity date for the extended Loans of each such Class (each an “Extended Maturity Date”) and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be reasonably established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.27.

(b) After giving effect to any Extension, the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments so extended shall cease to be a part of the Class that they were a part of immediately prior to the Extension and shall be a new Class hereunder; provided that at no time shall there be more than three different Classes of Term Loans and three different classes of Revolving Commitments; provided further, that, in the case of any Extension Amendment relating to Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans, (i) all borrowings and all prepayments of Revolving Loans shall continue to be made on a ratable basis among all Revolving Lenders, based on the relative amounts of their Revolving Commitments, until the repayment of the Revolving Loans attributable to the non-extended Revolving Commitments on the relevant maturity date, (ii) the allocation of the participation exposure with respect to any then-existing or subsequently issued or made Letter of Credit or Swing Line Loan as between the Revolving Commitments of such new “Class” and the remaining Revolving Commitments shall be made on a ratable basis in accordance with the relative amounts thereof until the maturity date relating to such non-extended Revolving Commitments has occurred, (iii) no termination of Extended Revolving Commitments and no repayment of Extended Revolving Loans accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in Extended Revolving Commitments shall be permitted unless such termination or repayment (and corresponding reduction) is accompanied by at least a pro rata termination or permanent repayment (and corresponding pro rata permanent reduction), as applicable, of the Existing Revolving Loans and Existing Revolving Commitments (or all Existing Revolving Commitments of such Class and related Existing Revolving Loans shall have otherwise been terminated and repaid in full) and (iv) with respect to Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans, the maturity date with respect to the Revolving Commitments may not be extended without the prior written consent of the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender.

105

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

(ii) the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, of any Lender extended pursuant to any Extension (as applicable, “Extended Term Loans” or “Extended Revolving Commitments”) shall have the same terms as the Class of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to the related Extension Amendment (as applicable, “Existing Term Loans” or “Existing Revolving Commitments”); except (A) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments of a Class to be extended pursuant to an Extension shall be later than the maturity date of the Class of Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to the related Extension Amendment, and the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments of a Class to be extended pursuant to an Extension shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Class of Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to the related Extension Amendment; (B) the all-in pricing (including, without limitation, margins, fees and premiums) with respect to the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, may be higher or lower than the all-in pricing (including, without limitation, margins, fees and premiums) for the Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable; (C) the revolving credit commitment fee rate with respect to the Extended Revolving Commitments may be higher or lower than the revolving credit commitment fee rate for Existing Revolving Commitments, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (D) any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Offer; and (E) the other terms and conditions applicable to Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments may be terms different than those with respect to the Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, so long as such terms and conditions only apply after the latest maturity of the Class of Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to the Extension Amendment;

(iii) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing;

(iv) a minimum amount in respect of such Extension (to be determined in applicable Borrower’s discretion and specified in the relevant Extension Offer, but in no event less than $25,000,000, unless another amount is agreed to by Administrative Agent) shall be satisfied; and

(v) no Extension shall become effective unless, on the proposed effective date of such Extension, the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 shall be satisfied (with all references in such Section to a Credit Date being deemed to be references to the Extension on the applicable date of such Extension), and the Administrative Agent shall

106

have received a certificate to that effect dated the applicable date of such Extension and executed by an Authorized Officer of the applicable Borrower.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the provisions of Section 2.17 and Section 10.5 will not apply to Extensions of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to Extension Offers made pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.27, including to any payment of interest or fees in respect of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, that have been extended pursuant to an Extension at a rate or rates different from those paid or payable in respect of Loans of any other Class, in each case as is set forth in the relevant Extension Offer.

(e) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments (collectively, “Extension Amendments”) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.27, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the extending Lenders as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder; provided however, no Extension Amendment may provide for any Class of Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that does not also secure the Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments.

(f) Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extension, (i) the appropriate Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage (or any other Loan Document that Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent reasonably requests to be amended to reflect an Extension) that has a maturity date prior to the latest Extended Maturity Date so that such maturity date is extended to the then latest Extended Maturity Date (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent), deliver title dated on or endorsements with respect to any Title Policies insuring such Mortgages and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent together with evidence of payment thereof and deliver customary opinions of counsel with respect to such Mortgage amendments in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the collateral agent and (ii) the applicable Borrower shall deliver board resolutions, secretary’s certificates, officer’s certificates and other documents as shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith and a legal opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.28 Appointment of Borrower Representative.

The U.S. Borrower hereby appoints the Borrower Representative as its agent, attorney-in-fact and representative for the administrative purposes of (a) making any borrowing requests or other requests required under this Agreement, (b) the giving and receipt of notices by and to the Borrowers under this Agreement, (c) the delivery of all documents, reports, financial statements and written materials required to be delivered by either Borrower under this Agreement and (d) all other administrative purposes incidental to any of the foregoing. The U.S. Borrower agrees that any action taken by the Borrower Representative as the agent,

107

attorney-in-fact and representative of the Borrowers shall be binding upon the U.S. Borrower to the same extent as if directly taken by the U.S. Borrower.

Section 4.02 Equity Interests and Ownership. The Equity Interests of each Group Member have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.02, as of the Closing Date, there is no existing option, warrant, call, right, commitment or other agreement to which any Group Member is a party requiring, and there is no membership interest or other Equity Interests of any Group Member outstanding which upon conversion or exchange would require, the issuance by any Group Member of any

113

additional membership interests or other Equity Interests of any Group Member or other Securities convertible into, exchangeable for or evidencing the right to subscribe for or purchase, a membership interest or other Equity Interests of any Group Member. Schedule 4.02 correctly sets forth the ownership interest of each Group Member in their respective Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date after giving pro forma effect to the Transactions.

Section 4.05 Governmental Consents. The execution, delivery and performance by Loan Parties of the Loan Documents to which they are parties and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents do not and will not require any registration with, consent or approval of, or notice to, or other action to, with or by, any Governmental Authority or payment of any stamp, registration, notarial or similar taxes or fees, except for filings and recordings with respect to the Collateral to be made, or otherwise delivered to the Collateral Agent for filing and/or recordation or to the extent required to create valid security and except for those not material to the operations or financial condition of the Loan Parties or the rights of the Secured Parties.

Section 4.06 Binding Obligation. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party that is a party thereto and is the legally valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, examinership, reorganization, appointment of a receiver moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.

114

position, on a consolidated basis, of the Persons described in such financial statements as at the respective dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows, on a consolidated basis, of the Persons described therein for each of the periods then ended, subject, in the case of any such unaudited financial statements, to changes resulting from audit and normal year-end adjustments. As of the Closing Date, no Group Member has any material contingent liability or liability for Taxes, long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term commitment that is not reflected in the Historical Financial Statements or the notes thereto and which in any such case is material in relation to the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Group taken as a whole.

Section 4.08 Projections. The projections of the Group for the period of Fiscal Year 2014 through and including Fiscal Year 2018 most recently provided to the Arrangers prior to the Closing Date (the “Projections”) are based on good faith estimates and assumptions believed by the management of the Parent to be reasonable; provided, that the Projections are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by the Projections may differ from such Projections and that the differences may be material.

Section 4.10 Adverse Proceedings, Etc.. There are no Adverse Proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

There is no proposed or threatened material Tax assessment against any Group Member which is not being actively contested by such Group Member in good faith and by appropriate proceedings; provided, that such reserves or other appropriate provisions, if any, as shall be required in conformity with IFRS shall have been made or provided therefor.

No material liability to the PBGC (other than required premium payments), the Internal Revenue Service, any Employee Benefit Plan (other than in the ordinary course) or any trust established under Title IV of ERISA has been or, to the knowledge of the Group Members, is expected to be incurred by any Group Member or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates with respect to any Pension Plan. No ERISA Event that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in material liability to any Group Member or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates, has occurred or, to the knowledge of the Group Members, is reasonably expected to occur. The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under the Pension Plans sponsored, maintained or contributed to by any Group Member or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates (determined as of the end of the most recent plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in the most recent actuarial valuation for such Pension Plan) do not exceed the aggregate current fair market value of the assets of such Pension Plans by an amount greater than $50,000,000. As

119

of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan, the potential liability of the Group and its ERISA Affiliates for a complete withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 or Section 4205 of ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, is $50,000,000. Each Group Member and each of their ERISA Affiliates have materially complied with the requirements of Section 515 of ERISA with respect to each Multiemployer Plan and, to the knowledge of the Group Members, are not in material “default” (as defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with respect to material payments to a Multiemployer Plan. Each Foreign Plan has been maintained in material compliance with its terms and with the material requirements of any applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority. Each Foreign Plan which is required under applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority has been maintained and operated in all material respects with the applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders.

Section 4.21 Disclosure. No representation or warranty of any Loan Party contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document or in any other documents, certificates or written statements furnished to any Agent, Arranger or Lender by any Group Member (or by its agents on its behalf) for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact (known to it, or to either Borrower in the case of any document not furnished by it) necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the same were made, except to the extent such statement or omission was subsequently disclosed or corrected. Any projections and pro forma financial information contained in such materials are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by such Group Member to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections may differ from the projected results and such differences may be material. There are no facts known (or which should upon the reasonable exercise of diligence be known) to such Group Member (other than matters of a general economic nature) that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect to such Group Member and that have not been disclosed herein or in such other documents, certificates and statements furnished to Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

All Material Intellectual Property of each Loan Party is subsisting and has not been adjudged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and each Loan Party has performed all legally required acts and has paid all renewal, maintenance, and other fees and taxes legally required to maintain the Material Intellectual Property of such Loan Party in full force and effect, except where failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

All registrations, issuances and applications for Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks of each Loan Party that constitute Material Intellectual Property are standing in the name of such Loan Party. To the knowledge of the Loan Parties, the use of Material Intellectual Property by each Loan Party in the current conduct of the business does not infringe, dilute, misappropriate or otherwise violate the rights of any Person, except where such infringement, dilution, misappropriation or other violation, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

To each Loan Party’s knowledge, no Person is infringing, misappropriating, diluting or otherwise violating any rights in any Material Intellectual Property owned, licensed or used by such Loan Party.

(d) Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, nor the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will alter materially, impair or otherwise affect any ownership, contractual or other right of any Loan Party in any Material Intellectual Property, except where the execution, delivery or performance, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(e) Each Loan Party has taken commercially reasonable measures to maintain the secrecy and security of its and its Subsidiaries material proprietary Software, networks and databases.

(b) Each Security Document creates the security interest that it purports to create and such security interests are valid and effective in all material respects.

Section 4.25 Centre of Main Interests and Establishments. Each Loan Party whose jurisdiction of incorporation is in a member state of the European Union has its “centre of main interest” (as that term is used in Article 3(l) of The Council of the European Union Regulation No. 1346/2000 of May 29, 2000 on Insolvency Proceedings, as amended from time to time (the “Regulation”)) in its jurisdiction of incorporation at the location of its registered office and has no “establishment” (as that term is used in Article 2(h) of the Regulation) in any other jurisdiction.

ARTICLE VII.
GUARANTY

Section 7.01 Guaranty of the Obligations. Each Guarantor jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranties to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations of the Borrowers (other than, in the case of the U.S. Borrower, any Guarantor that is a Controlled Foreign Corporation) when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)) (the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

Section 7.02 Contribution by Guarantors. The Guarantors (respectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”) desire to allocate among themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, the Guaranteed Obligations, respectively, arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceed its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any comparable applicable provisions of any Debtor Relief Law; provided, that solely for purposes of calculating the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 7.02, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (A) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including in respect of this Section 7.02), minus (B) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 7.02. The amounts payable as

148

contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. The allocation among the Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 7.02 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 7.02.

Section 7.03 Payment by Guarantors. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Secured Party may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of any Borrower to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) or any comparable provision of any other Debtor Relief Law), the Guarantors shall upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for any Borrower’s becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief Law, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against such Borrower for such interest in the related bankruptcy case or analogous proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to the Secured Parties as aforesaid.

Section 7.04 Liability of Guarantors Absolute. Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a Guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

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

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

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

(d) payment by any Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent is awarded a judgment in

149

any suit brought to enforce any Guarantor’s covenant to pay a portion of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations;

(e) any Secured Party, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Secured Party in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Secured Party may have against any such security, in each case as such Secured Party in its discretion may determine consistent herewith, the applicable Hedge Agreement, Cash Management Agreement or Treasury Transaction and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any Borrower or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi) exercise any other rights available to it under the Loan Documents or any Hedge Agreements, Cash Management Agreements or Treasury Transactions; and

(f) this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Loan Documents, any Hedge Agreements, any Cash Management Agreements or any Treasury Transactions, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Loan Documents, any of the Hedge Agreements, Cash Management Agreements or Treasury Transactions or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty

150

or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Loan Document, such Hedge Agreement, such Cash Management Agreement, such Treasury Transaction or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Loan Documents, any of the Hedge Agreements, any of the Cash Management Agreements, any Treasury Transaction or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Secured Party might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any Secured Party’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Group Member and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set-offs or counterclaims which any Borrower may allege or assert against any Secured Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations; and (ix) any action that the Lenders may take in relation to the approval of a composition of creditors (convenio) in an insolvency proceeding of any Spanish Loan Party, including any vote in favor of such composition of creditors.

Section 7.05 Waivers by Guarantors. Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of the Secured Parties: (a) any right to require any Secured Party, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against any Borrower, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower, any such other Guarantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Secured Party in favor of any Borrower or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of any Borrower or any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of any Borrower or any other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Secured Party’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or Lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices,

151

demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder, the Hedge Agreements or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to any Borrower and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 7.04 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof.

Section 7.06 Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, Etc.. Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Revolving Commitments shall have terminated and all applicable Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any applicable Borrower or any other Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any applicable Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Secured Party now has or may hereafter have against any applicable Borrower, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Secured Party. In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Revolving Commitments shall have terminated and all applicable Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any such right of contribution as contemplated by Section 7.02). Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against any applicable Borrower or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Secured Party may have against any applicable Borrower, to all right, title and interest any Secured Party may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Secured Party may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all applicable Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been finally and indefeasibly paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 7.07 Subordination of Other Obligations. Any Indebtedness of any Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is

continuing shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof.

Section 7.08 Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Revolving Commitments shall have terminated and all applicable Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 7.09 Authority of Guarantors or the Borrowers. It is not necessary for any Secured Party to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or any Borrower or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

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

Section 7.11 Bankruptcy, Etc..

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

153

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

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

Section 7.12 Discharge of Guaranty Upon Sale of Guarantor. If all of the Equity Interests of any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, the Guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Secured Party or any other Person effective as of the time of such Asset Disposition.

Section 7.13 Spanish Guarantor Limitations. In respect of a Spanish Loan Party, the guarantee under this Article VII does not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in this guarantee constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Sections 143.2 and 150 of the Spanish Companies Act (Ley de Sociedades de Capital).

Section 7.14 Irish Guarantor Limitations. In respect of an Irish Loan Party, the guarantee under this Article VII does not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in this guarantee constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Section 60 of the Irish Companies Act (1963).

Section 7.15 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by any other Loan Party hereunder to honor all of such Loan Party’s obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 7.15 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 7.15, or otherwise under this Guaranty, as it relates to such Loan Party, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater

154

amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Revolving Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 7.15 constitute, and this Section 7.15 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

ARTICLE IX.
AGENTS

Section 9.01 Appointment of Agents. DBNY is hereby appointed the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby authorizes DBNY to act as the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees to act in its capacity as such upon the express conditions contained herein and the other Loan Documents, as applicable. The provisions of this Article IX (other than as expressly provided herein) are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and no Loan Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions of this Article IX (other than as expressly provided herein). In performing its functions and duties hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Group Member. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Loan Document, each of the Arrangers and the Bookrunners are named as such for recognition purposes only, and in their respective capacities as such shall have no duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; it being understood and agreed that each of the Arrangers and the Bookrunners shall be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of the Administrative Agent provided herein and in the other Loan Documents and all of the other benefits of this Article IX.

Section 9.02 Powers and Duties. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent to take such action on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto. In the event that any obligations (other than the Obligations) are permitted to be incurred hereunder and secured by Liens permitted to be incurred hereunder on all or a portion of the Collateral, each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into intercreditor agreements, subordination agreements and amendments to the Security Documents to reflect such arrangements on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Each Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified herein and the other Loan Documents. Each Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. No Agent shall have, by reason hereof or any of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship or other implied duties in respect of any Lender, any Loan Party or any other Person; and nothing herein or any of the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon any Agent any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any Agent is not

159

intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under the agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Anything herein to the contrary not withstanding, none of the Arrangers, Bookrunners, Agents or any other person listed on the cover page hereof, shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents except in its capacity as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or a Lender hereunder.

Section 9.03 General Immunity.

(a) No Responsibility for Certain Matters. No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency hereof or any other Loan Document, or for the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien, or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by any Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of any Loan Party or to any Agent or Lender in connection with the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Loan Party or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall any Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Loan Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Default or as to the value or sufficiency of any Collateral or as to the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein (other than confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent) or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Group Member or to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans or the Letter of Credit Usage or the component amounts thereof.

(b) Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to the Lenders (i) for any action taken or omitted by any Agent (A) under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents or (B) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement) except to the extent caused by such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. No Agent shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose or be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection herewith or any of the other Loan Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.05) and, upon receipt of

160

such instructions from Required Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may be), such Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions and shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such 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 Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for a Group Member), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.05).

(c) Delegation of Duties. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it and to grant an exemption from any restrictions to any sub-delegate. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral 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 Affiliates. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of this Section 9.03 and of Section 9.06 shall apply to any of the Affiliates of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral 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 the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable. All of the rights, benefits, and privileges (including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions) of this Section 9.03 and of Section 9.06 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as sub-agent as if such sub-agent and Affiliates were named herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each sub-agent appointed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, (i) such sub-agent shall be a third party beneficiary under this Agreement with respect to all such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) and shall have all of the rights and benefits of a third party beneficiary, including an independent right of action to enforce such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) directly, without the consent or joinder of any other Person, against any or all of Loan Parties and the Lenders, (ii) such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) shall not be modified or amended without the consent of such sub-agent, and (iii) such sub-agent shall only have obligations to the Administrative Agent and not to any Loan Party, Lender or any other Person and no Loan Party, Lender or any other Person shall have any rights, directly or indirectly, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, against such sub-agent.

(d) Notice of Default or Event of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice describing such

161

Default or Event of Default is given to such Agent by a Loan Party or a Lender. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall receive such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders, provided that failure to give such notice shall not result in any liability on the part of the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.04 Agents Entitled to Act as Lender. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. With respect to its participation in the Loans and the Letters of Credit, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity. Any Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with any Borrower or any of its Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from any Borrower for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that pursuant to such activities, the Agents or their Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Agents and their Affiliates shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.

Section 9.05 Lenders’ Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment.

(a) Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Group in connection with Credit Extensions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Group. No Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Lenders.

(b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement, an Assignment Agreement and funding its Tranche A Term Loan, Tranche B Term Loan and/or Revolving Loans on the Closing Date, the Closing Date or by funding any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent, Required Lenders or Lenders, as applicable on the Closing Date or as of the date of funding of such Loans.

Section 9.06 Right to Indemnity. Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify each Agent to the extent that such Agent shall not have been reimbursed by any Loan Party (and without limiting its obligation to do so), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature

162

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

Section 9.07 Successor Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Swing Line Lender.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall have the right to resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent shall have the right to appoint a financial institution to act as the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent hereunder, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrowers and the Required Lenders and so long as such successor Administrative Agent shall be either one of the Lenders or a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the United States (or any State thereof) or a United States branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000, and the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earlier of (a) the acceptance of such successor Administrative Agent by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or (b) the thirtieth day after such notice of resignation. Upon any such notice of resignation, if a successor Administrative Agent has not already been appointed by the retiring Administrative Agent, Required Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Borrowers, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If neither Required Lenders nor the Administrative Agent have appointed a successor Administrative Agent, then the Required Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring the Administrative Agent; provided, that until a successor Administrative Agent is so appointed by Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent, by notice to the Borrowers and Required Lenders, may retain its role as the Collateral Agent under any Security Document. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, any resignation of DBNY or its successor as the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute the resignation of DBNY or its successor as the Collateral Agent. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9.07 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent hereunder. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall promptly (a) transfer to

163

such successor Administrative Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held under the Security Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, and (b) execute and deliver to such successor Administrative Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Administrative Agent of the security interests created under the Security Documents, whereupon such retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. If the Administrative Agent is retaining its role as Collateral Agent, the actions enumerated in the preceding sentence will be modified to account for such retained role. Any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to this Section 9.07 shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Collateral Agent for all purposes hereunder. If DBNY or its successor as the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.07 has resigned as the Administrative Agent but retained its role as the Collateral Agent and no successor the Collateral Agent has become the Collateral Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, DBNY or its successor may resign as the Collateral Agent upon notice to the Borrowers and Required Lenders at any time.

(b) In addition to the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and the Loan Parties. The Administrative Agent shall have the right to appoint a financial institution as the Collateral Agent hereunder, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrowers and the Required Lenders and the Collateral Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earlier of (i) the acceptance of such successor Collateral Agent by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or (ii) the thirtieth day after such notice of resignation. Upon any such notice of resignation, Required Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, the successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Security Documents, and the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder or under the Security Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Security Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created under the Security Documents, whereupon such retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the Security Documents. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement or the Security Documents while it was the Collateral Agent hereunder.

(c) Any resignation of DBNY or its successor as the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.07 shall also constitute the resignation of DBNY or its successor as the Swing Line Lender and Issuing Bank, and any successor Administrative Agent appointed

164

pursuant to this Section 9.07 shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Swing Line Lender and Issuing Bank (in accordance with Section 2.04(h)) for all purposes hereunder. In such event (i) the Foreign Borrower shall prepay any outstanding Swing Line Loans made by the retiring Administrative Agent in its capacity as Swing Line Lender, (ii) upon such prepayment, the retiring Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender shall surrender any Swing Line Note held by it to the Foreign Borrower for cancellation and (iii) the Foreign Borrower shall issue, if so requested by the successor Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender, a new Swing Line Note to the successor Administrative Agent and the successor Swing Line Lender, in the principal amount of the Swing Line Sublimit then in effect and with other appropriate insertions.

Section 9.08 Security Documents and Guaranty.

(a) Agents under Security Documents and Guaranty. Each Secured Party hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of Secured Parties with respect to the Guaranty, the Collateral and the Security Documents; provided, that except as expressly set forth herein, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall owe any fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or any other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Obligations. Subject to Section 10.05, without further written consent or authorization from any Secured Party, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable may execute any documents or instruments necessary (i) in connection with a sale or disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement, to release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of such sale or other disposition of assets or to which Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.05) have otherwise consented or (ii) to release any Guarantor from the Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.12 or with respect to which Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.05) have otherwise consented. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Secured Party appoints the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to act as its agent in connection with the ratification and incorporation of any Spanish Security Document into a Spanish Public Document, and hereby authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into, enforce their rights under and generally represent them in respect of the granting of Spanish Public Document. Each Secured Party appoints the Collateral Agent to act as its agent in connection with the execution of any and all documents required to perfect the security created under the Irish Security Documents.

(b) Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guaranty. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral

165

at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.

(c) Rights under Hedge Agreements. No Hedge Agreement shall create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Lender Counterparty that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Guarantor under the Loan Documents except as expressly provided in Sections 2.15(d) and 10.05(c)(v) of this Agreement and Section 10 of the U.S. Security Agreements. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, such Lender Counterparty shall be deemed to have appointed the Collateral Agent as its agent and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party, subject to the limitations set forth in this clause (c).

(d) Release of Collateral and Guaranties, Termination of Loan Documents.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, upon the Discharge of Obligations and upon request of the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender or any Lender Counterparty) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations provided for in any Loan Document. Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation, examinership, receivership or reorganization of any Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor, liquidator, examiner or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(ii) Upon any disposition of property permitted by this Agreement, any security interest in such property provided for in any Security Document shall be deemed to be automatically released and such property shall automatically revert to the applicable Loan Party with no further action on the part of any Person. The Collateral Agent shall, at the applicable Loan Party’s expense, execute and deliver or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as such Loan Party shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, including financing statement amendments to evidence such release.

(e) Powers of Attorney. At the request of the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, which request may be made from time to time, each of the Lenders party hereto agrees to execute and grant a power of attorney in favor of (and in form and substance satisfactory to) the Collateral Agent and/or the Administrative Agent to the extent necessary

166

under local law in order to give effect to the provisions of this Section 9.08. To the extent a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent in writing that it is prohibited by its governing documents or by requirements of law from providing such power of attorney, and the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent determines that documentation executed by such Lender is reasonably necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 9.08, each such Lender undertakes for so long as it is Lender to join the Administrative Agent and or Collateral Agent (as requested by such agent) in any action to give effect to the provisions of this Section 9.08 and for the avoidance of doubt, such Lender shall abide by and act, or refrain from acting, in accordance with, any decision of the Lenders made in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 9.09 Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If any payment has been made to any Lender by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding Tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent has paid over the applicable withholding Tax to the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority, or the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

Section 9.10 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties (including fees, disbursements and other expenses of counsel) allowed in such judicial proceeding and (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same. Any custodian, receiver, examiner, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or other Secured Party any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or other Secured Party to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of such Person or in any such proceeding.

Section 9.11 Administrative Agent’s “Know Your Customer” Requirements. Each Lender shall promptly, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, provide such

167

documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (for itself) in order for the Administrative Agent to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents.

Section 9.12 Spanish Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding the generality of this Article IX, each of the Secured Parties party hereto on the Closing Date shall grant a power of attorney in favor of (and in form and substance satisfactory to) the Collateral Agent to administer and enforce remedies with respect to the Spanish Security, which shall be granted in favor of each and all of the Secured Parties, that is subject to any Spanish Security Document for and on behalf of the Lenders pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. At the request of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, which request may be made from time to time, each Lender party hereto from time to time will sign such powers of attorney as requested by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent which are necessary to cause any Spanish Security Document to be elevated to the status of a Spanish Public Document.

Section 10.03 Indemnity.

(a) In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 10.02, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Loan Party agrees to defend (subject to Indemnitees’ rights to selection of counsel), indemnify, pay and hold harmless, each Agent, Arranger, Bookrunner, Issuing Bank, Swing Line Lender and Lender and the officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, shareholders, advisors, employees, representatives, attorneys, controlling persons, agents, sub-agents and Affiliates of each Agent, Arranger, Bookrunner, Issuing Bank, Swing Line Lender and Lender, as well as the respective heirs, successors and assigns of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, that no Loan Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 10.03 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the applicable Loan Party shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each Loan Party hereby waives, any claim against each Agent, Arranger, Bookrunner, Issuing Bank, Swing Line Lender and Lender and their respective Affiliates, officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, shareholders, advisors, employees, representatives, attorneys, controlling persons, agents and sub-agents on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of or in any way related to this Agreement or any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the transmission of information through the Internet, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Loan Party hereby waives, releases and agrees not to xxx upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

(vi) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of Article IX as the same applies to any Agent, or any other provision hereof as the same applies to the rights or obligations of any Agent, in each case without the consent of such Agent;

(vii) amend any condition for Credit Extensions set forth in Section 3.02 without the consent of Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate Revolving Exposure of all Lenders;

(viii) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision hereof that would materially, disproportionately and adversely affect the Lenders holding Revolving Commitments or the obligation of the Foreign Borrower to make any payment of Revolving Loans without the consent of Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate Revolving Exposure of all Lenders (or if such amendment, modification or waiver affects only the Revolving Loans, 50% of the aggregate Revolving Exposure); or

(ix) except to the extent expressly addressed in another clause of this Section 10.05, amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision hereof that would materially, disproportionately and adversely affect the obligation of any Borrower to make payment of Term Loans without the consent of Lenders holding more than 50.0% of the aggregate Term Loans of all Lenders.

(d) Other Amendments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.05:

(i) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative shall have jointly identified an obvious or manifest error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof;

(ii) the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may (or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) amend or restate any Security Document or enter into any new agreement or instrument (with the consent of the Borrower Representative, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to (A) make any change that would provide any additional rights, protections or benefits to the Secured Parties or that does not adversely affect the legal rights of any Secured Party hereunder or under such Security Document, (B) make, complete, enhance, confirm or reconfirm any grant of Collateral permitted or required herein or any of the Security Documents, (C) grant any Lien for the benefit of the Secured Parties otherwise permitted to be granted under any Loan Document or (D) add additional Lenders as Secured Parties, in each case, to the extent local law requires such amendments or restatements to effectuate the agreements of the parties hereunder, and any such amendments or restatements shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other

175

party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof; and

(iii) if, at any time, the Borrower Representative requests that the schedules to this Agreement be amended (or new schedules added) to reflect immaterial changes or changes of a clean-up nature, such schedules may be amended or added with the consent of the Administrative Agent (and without the consent of any other party to any Loan Document).

(e) Execution of Amendments, Etc. The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, supplements, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender; provided that, with respect to amendments, supplements, modifications, waivers or consents requiring the approval of a Lender which has notified the Administrative Agent in writing at the time of such amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or consent that it is unable to permit the Administrative Agent to execute on its behalf, the Administrative Agent shall not execute such amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or consent on behalf of such Lender; provided, further, that any such limitation with respect to such Lender shall not affect the ability of the Administrative Agent to so execute on behalf of any other Lenders or, for the avoidance of doubt, the effectiveness of any amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or consent with respect to which the applicable consents have been received. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 10.05 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by the Borrowers, on the Loan Parties.

Section 10.06 Successors and Assigns; Participations.

(a) Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of Lenders. No Loan Party’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be assigned or delegated by any Loan Party without the prior written consent of all Lenders (and any purported assignment or delegation without such consent shall be null and void).

(b) Register. Each Borrower, each Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each case, unless and until recorded in the Register following receipt of a fully executed Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof, together with the required forms and certificates regarding Tax matters and any fees payable in connection with such assignment, in each case, as provided in Section 10.06(d). Each assignment shall be recorded in the Register promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of the fully executed Assignment Agreement and all other necessary documents and approvals, prompt notice thereof shall be provided to the Borrower Representative and a copy of such Assignment Agreement shall be

176

maintained, as applicable. The date of such recordation of a transfer shall be referred to herein as the “Assignment Effective Date.” Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Loans.

(c) Right to Assign. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its Commitment or Loans owing to it or other Obligations (provided, that pro rata assignments shall not be required and each assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Loan and any related Commitments):

(i) to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” upon consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and

(ii) to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (d) or (e) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” upon consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the giving of notice to the Borrowers and, in the case of assignments of Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments to any such Person, consented to by the Borrower Representative, the Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Bank (provided that the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have consented to assignments (A) made during the initial syndication of the Revolving Commitments to Lenders and the Administrative Agent and (B) after five (5) Business Days following notice thereof if such consent has not been giving within such time) (each such consent not to be (x) unreasonably withheld or delayed or (y) in the case of the Borrower Representative, required at any time a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing); provided, further, that each such assignment pursuant to this Section 10.06(c)(ii) shall be subject to the written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that such potential Lender is not a Disqualified Company and shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than (A) $1,000,000 (or €1,000,000 with respect to Loans denominated in Euro) (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans of the assigning Lender) with respect to the assignment of the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans and (B) $1,000,000 (or €1,000,000 with respect to Loans denominated in Euro) (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Tranche A Term Loan, Tranche B Term Loan or Incremental Term Loans of a Series of the assigning Lender) with respect to the assignment of Term Loans; provided, that the Related Funds of any individual Lender may aggregate their Loans for purposes of determining compliance with such minimum assignment amounts.

(d) Mechanics. Assignments and assumptions of Loans and Commitments by Lenders shall be effected by manual execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement. Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be

177

effective as of the Assignment Effective Date. In connection with all assignments there shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to Tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.20(c), together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable (i) in connection with an assignment elected or caused by the Borrower Representative pursuant to Section 2.23, (ii) in connection with an assignment by or to DBNY or any Affiliate thereof or (iii) in the case of an Assignee which is already a Lender or is an Affiliate or Related Fund of a Lender or a Person under common management with a Lender).

(e) Representations and Warranties of Assignee. Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in the Commitments and Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date, the Closing Date or as of the Assignment Effective Date, as applicable, that: (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable Commitments or Loans, as the case may be; and (iii) it shall make or invest in, as the case may be, its Commitments or Loans for its own account in the ordinary course and without a view to distribution of such Commitments or Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.06, the disposition of such Commitments or Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control).

(f) Lender Status Confirmation. Each Lender upon succeeding to an interest in the Commitments and/or Loans to the Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, shall indicate, in the Assignment Agreement which it executes on becoming a party, and for the benefit of the Foreign Borrower, which of the following categories it falls into: (i) not a Qualifying Lender; (ii) a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or (iii) a Treaty Lender. Each such Lender shall promptly notify the Foreign Borrower if there is any change in their position as a Qualifying Lender.

(g) Effect of Assignment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.06, as of the “Assignment Effective Date” (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent of its interest in the Loans and Commitments as reflected in the Register and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to the assignee, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination hereof, including under Section 10.08) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto on the Assignment Effective Date; provided, that anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, (A) the Issuing Bank shall continue to have all rights and obligations thereof with respect to such Letters of Credit until the cancellation or expiration of such Letters of Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder and (B) such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect any Commitment of such assignee and any Revolving Commitment of such assigning Lender, if any;

178

and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to the Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the applicable Borrower shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Revolving Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply the requirements of this Section 10.06 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.06(h). Any assignment by a Lender pursuant to this Section 10.06 shall not in any way constitute or be deemed to constitute a novation, discharge, rescission, extinguishment or substitution of the Indebtedness hereunder, and any Indebtedness so assigned shall continue to be the same obligation and not a new obligation.

(h) Participations.

(i) Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than any Group Member or any of their respective Affiliates) in all or any part of its Commitments, Loans or in any other Obligation.

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

(iii) Each Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18(c), 2.19 and 2.20 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section; provided, that such participant agrees, for the benefit of the applicable Borrower, to comply with Section 2.20 as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.20 shall be delivered to the participating Lender); provided further, that a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.19 or 2.20 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled

179

to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant without the Borrower Representative’s prior written consent; provided, further, that except as specifically set forth herein, nothing herein shall require any notice to the Borrower Representative or any other Person in connection with the sale of any participation. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.04 as though it were a Lender; provided, that such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender.

(iv) Each Lender that sells a participation shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts of each participant’s interest in the Commitments, Loans and other Obligations held by it (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such Commitments, Loans and other Obligations as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any such Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative Agent at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice, solely to the extent such inspection is necessary to establish that such Commitments, Loans or other obligations are in registered form for purposes of Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

(v) Each Lender which grants a participation to a participant in the Commitments and/or Loans to the Foreign Borrower shall confirm to the Foreign Borrower on the date it grants such participation whether or not the Participant is a Qualifying Lender. Each such Lender shall promptly notify the Foreign Borrower if there is any change in the Participant’s status as a Qualifying Lender.

(i) Certain Other Assignments and Participations. In addition to any other assignment or participation permitted pursuant to this Section 10.06 any Lender may pledge (without the consent of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent) all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including, without limitation, any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, any other obligations to a federal or central bank and, in the case of any Lender which is a fund, to secure obligations owed or securities issued by, such Lender as security for those obligations or security; provided, that no Lender, as between any Borrower and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge; provided, further, that in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee, be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

Section 10.07 Independence of Covenants, Etc.. All covenants, conditions and other terms hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, conditions or other terms, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant, condition or other term shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

180

Section 10.08 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit Extension. Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of each Loan Party set forth in Sections 2.18(c), 2.19, 2.20(e), 10.02, 10.03 and 10.04 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 2.17, 9.03(b), 9.06 and 9.09 shall survive the payment of the Loans, the cancellation or expiration of the Letters of Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder, and the termination hereof.

Section 10.09 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay or course of dealing on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Loan Documents or any of the Hedge Agreements. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of any Credit Extension shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time of the making of any such Credit Extension.

Section 10.10 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or any Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

Section 10.11 Severability. In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid, legal and enforceable provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as reasonably possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

181

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

Section 10.13 Table of Contents and Headings. The Table of Contents hereof and Article and Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose, modify or amend the terms or conditions hereof, be used in connection with the interpretation of any term or condition hereof or be given any substantive effect.

Section 10.14 APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 10.15 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. SUBJECT TO CLAUSE (E) OF THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE, ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, SHALL BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN XXX XXXXX, XXXXXX XXX XXXX XX XXX XXXX.

Each of Parent, the Borrowers and the Loan Parties further agrees to take any and all action, including without limitation execution and filing of any and all such documents and instruments as may be necessary to continue the designation and appointment of the Process Agent for a period of six years from the Closing Date to the sixth anniversary of the termination of this Agreement and all Loan Documents in accordance with their terms.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED.

IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT (INCLUDING ANY APPELLATE COURT THEREOF).

Section 10.17 Confidentiality. Each Agent (which term shall for the purposes of this Section 10.17 include the Arrangers) and each Lender (which term shall for the purposes of this Section 10.17 include the Issuing Bank) shall hold all non-public information regarding the Group and their businesses identified as such by the Borrower Representative and obtained by such Agent or such Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Agent’s and such Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by the Borrower Representative that, in any event, the Administrative Agent may disclose such information to the Lenders and each Agent and each Lender may make (a) disclosures of such information to Affiliates or Related Funds of such Lender or Agent and to their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents and advisors (and to other Persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.17); provided, that such Persons are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 10.17 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 10.17, (b) disclosures of such information reasonably required by (i) any pledgee referred to in Section 10.6(h), (ii) any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Loans or any participations therein, (iii) any bona fide or potential direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations or (iv) any direct or indirect investor or prospective investor in a Related Fund; provided, that such pledgees, assignees, transferees, participants, counterparties, advisors and investors are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 10.17 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 10.17, (c) disclosure to (i) any rating agency or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers, in each case when required by it; provided, that prior to any disclosure, such rating agency or CUSIP Service Bureau shall be instructed to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from any Agent or any Lender, (d) disclosures in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (e) disclosures required or requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or by the NAIC or pursuant to legal or judicial process; provided, that unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender and each Agent shall make reasonable efforts to notify the Borrower Representative of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information so that the Borrower Representative may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive the provisions of this Section 10.17, (f) disclosures

184

with the consent of the Borrower Representative and (g) to the extent information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.17 or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Loan Parties. If the Borrower Representative elects not to seek, or is unsuccessful in obtaining, any such protective order or other remedy or, in the absence of the receipt of a waiver hereunder, any Lender or Agent, as applicable, is compelled to disclose any non-public information to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt, such Lender or Agent, as applicable, may disclose the non-public information to the tribunal to the extent legally required (as determined by it); provided, that such Lender or Agent, as applicable to the extent permitted by applicable law, will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, at the request of the Borrower Representative and at the Borrower Representative’s expense, an order or assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the non-public information required to be disclosed. In addition, each Agent and each Lender may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall permit disclosure of non-public information to any Disqualified Company.

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

Section 10.19 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission will be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

Section 10.20 Executive Proceedings. Each Spanish Security Document shall be formalized in a Spanish Public Document so that it may have the status of an executive title for all purposes contemplated in Article 517, number 4 of the Spanish Civil Procedure Law (law 1/2000 of 7 January).

Section 10.21 Effectiveness; Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of written notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any fee letter entered into in connection herewith represent the entire agreement of the Group, the Agents, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender, the Arrangers, the Bookrunners and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any Agent, Issuing Bank, Swing Line Lender, Arranger, Bookrunner or Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, express or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of the Agents and Lenders, holders of participations in all or any part of a Lender’s Commitments, Loans or in any other Obligations, and the Indemnitees) any rights, remedies, obligations, claims or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided, that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of any Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement.

Section 10.22 PATRIOT Act. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that shall allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

Section 10.23 Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 10.24 No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender, each Arranger, each Bookrunner, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of each Borrower, its stockholders and/or its Affiliates. Each Borrower agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory,

186

fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (x) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other, and (y) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (i) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (ii) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Borrower, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that such Borrower 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 Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Borrower, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

Section 10.25 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment in given. The obligation of any Borrower in respect of such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent from the applicable Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Law).
