Article 2
The Credits

Section 2.01. Commitments.(a) The Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make a loan to the Borrower on the Effective Date in a principal amount equal to its Commitment. Amounts repaid in respect of Loans may not be reborrowed. The Commitments of the Lenders are several, i.e., the failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder, and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender's failure to make Loans as and when required hereunder.

(b) Termination of the Commitments on the Effective Date. Unless previously terminated, the Commitments will terminate on the Effective Date immediately after the Borrowing (if any) hereunder.

Section 2.02. Request to Borrow. To request the Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request in writing by at least one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing. Such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable, shall be in substantially the form as set forth on Exhibit H hereto and shall be signed by the Borrower. The Borrowing Request shall specify the following information:

(i) the aggregate amount of the Borrowing;

(ii) the date of the Borrowing, which shall be the Effective Date; and

(iii) the location and number of the Borrower's account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.03.

Promptly after it receives the Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender as to the details of such Borrowing Request and the amount of such Lender's Loan to be made pursuant thereto.

Section 2.03. Funding of Loans. (a) Each Lender shall wire the principal amount of its Loan in immediately available funds, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of the Borrowing, to the account of the Administrative Agent designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower in the United States and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent receives notice from a Lender before the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make its share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.03(a) and may, in reliance on such assumption, make a corresponding amount available to the Borrower. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and (if such amount is not made available by such Lender within three Business Days of the date of such Borrowing) the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the day such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (but including the interest rate applicable to the Loans and the credit risk of the Borrower) or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Loan for such period, provided that nothing in this Section 2.03(b) shall impair the Borrower's rights against such Lender for failure to make such Lender's Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing.

Section 2.04. Interest Rate.(a) The Loans shall bear interest for each day, subject to clause (b) of this Section 2.04 and to Section 2.08, at a rate equal to (x) Adjusted LIBOR for the then current Interest Period plus (y) the Applicable Margin.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such amount, while overdue, shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding subsections of this Section or (y) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) Interest accrued on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each Interest Period; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to clause (b) above shall be payable on demand and (ii) upon any repayment of any Loan, interest accrued on the principal amount repaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment.

(d) All interest hereunder will be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Rate shall be determined as agreed in accordance with Section 2.08, and interest computed by reference to the Base Rate at times when the Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate will be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case will be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day (including in the case of any calculation thereof for an Interest Period)). Each applicable Base Rate or Adjusted LIBOR shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and its determination thereof will be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.05. Payment at Maturity; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent on the Maturity Date, for the account of each Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of such Lender's Loan (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Maturity Date).

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

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender's share thereof.

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

(e) Any Lender may request that the Loan made by it be evidenced by a promissory note (any such promissory note, a "Note"). In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto and payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns).

Section 2.06. Optional and Mandatory Prepayments. (a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall not be permitted to prepay, at its option, any Loan in whole or in part at any time prior to September 11, 2006. On or after September 11, 2006, the Borrower may prepay any Loan in whole or in part, subject to the provisions of this Section.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments. The Borrower shall prepay Loans in the manner and to the extent required in connection with any Asset Sale Offer in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.06.

(c) Notice of and Provisions for Prepayments. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment of the Borrowing hereunder not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, five Business Days before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of the Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. Promptly after it receives any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of the Loans shall be applied ratably to all Loans of the Lenders. Each prepayment of the Loans, in whole or in part, shall be accompanied by accrued interest thereunder to the date of such prepayment, and premium, if any, with respect thereto.

Section 2.07. Fees. (a) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(b) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent on the Effective Date, for the account of the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments, a fee in an amount equal to 0.50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments.

(c) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

Section 2.08. Alternate Rate of Interest. If before the beginning of any Interest Period:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination will be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Adjusted LIBOR for such Interest Period; or

(ii) Lenders whose Loans to be included in the Borrowing aggregate at least 51% thereof advise the Administrative Agent that the Adjusted LIBOR for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, the Loans shall bear interest at a rate for each day equal to (x) the Base Rate for such day plus (y) the Applicable Margin for the then current Interest Period minus 1% per annum (such rate for any day, the "Alternate Rate").

Section 2.09. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law (other than a Change in Law affecting taxes) shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in Adjusted LIBOR); or

(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Loan made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making or maintaining any Loan or reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, subject to Section 2.09(e), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it for such additional cost incurred or reduction suffered. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.09(a), it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (i) that one of the events described in this Section 2.09(a) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (ii) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (iii) as to the additional amount demanded by such Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof.

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then, subject to Section 2.09(e), from time to time after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor certifying (i) that an event described in this Section 2.09(b) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (ii) as to the reduction of the rate of return on capital resulting from such event and (iii) as to the additional amount or amounts demanded by such Lender or its holding company and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time that any Loan is affected by the circumstances described in paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 2.09, the Borrower may, if the affected Loan is then outstanding, upon at least five Business Days written notice to the Administrative Agent, repay the Loan of the affected Lender (including all accrued interest and fees); provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 2.09(c).

(d) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate it or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(e) Failure or delay by any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section will not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower will not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased cost or reduction incurred more than 180 days before it notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased cost or reduction and of its intention to claim compensation therefor. However, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above will be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 2.10. Break Funding Payments. If (a) any principal of any Loan is repaid on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default) or (b) the Borrower fails to borrow or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, then the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for its loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Loan bearing interest based on Adjusted LIBOR, such loss, cost and expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (x) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBOR that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the end of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have begun on the date of such failure), over (y) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the beginning of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any amounts under this Section 2.10, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (i) that one of the events described in clause (a) or (b) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (ii) as to the loss or expense sustained or incurred by such Lender as a consequence thereof and (iii) as to the amount for which such Lender seeks compensation hereunder and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

Section 2.11. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it under the Loan Documents (whether of principal, interest or fees or amounts payable under Section 2.09, 2.10 or 5.14 or otherwise) before the time expressly required under the relevant Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, before 12:00 noon, New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set‑off or counterclaim. Any amount received after such time on any day may, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent through wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent's account at Bank of New York, ABA 000000000, A/C Name: CSFB Agency Cayman Account, A/C Number: 8900492627, Reference: Vitro; except that payments pursuant to Sections Section 2.09, 2.10, 5.14 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payment received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly after receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment will be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, if such payment accrues interest, interest thereon will be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in Dollars.

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

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this subsection shall not apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this subsection shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless, before the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of one or more Lender Parties hereunder, the Administrative Agent receives from the Borrower notice that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance on such assumption, distribute to each relevant Lender Party the amount due to it. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, each Lender Party severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender Party with interest thereon, for each day from and including the day such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the day it repays the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender fails to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.03(b), 2.11(d), or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

Section 2.12. Lender's Obligation to Mitigate. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.09, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.14, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment Error! Bookmark not defined.(i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.09 or Section 5.14, as the case may be, in the future, Error! Bookmark not defined.(ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense (unless the Borrower agrees to reimburse such Lender for any such costs and expenses) and Error! Bookmark not defined.(iii) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Section 2.13. Judgment Currency. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Borrower under any Loan Document in the currency expressed to be payable in such Loan Document (the "specified currency") into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent's New York City office at 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (i) the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, and (ii) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 2.11, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower.

Section 3.14. Conduct of Business. (a) The Borrower and its Subsidiaries possess all licenses, certificates, permits and other authorizations issued by the appropriate federal, state or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses, other than such licenses, certificates, permits or other authorization the failure of which to possess would not have a Material Adverse Effect; neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such license, certificate, authorization or permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) In the ordinary course of its business, the Borrower periodically reviews the effect of Environmental Laws on the business, operations and properties of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, in the course of which it identifies and evaluates associated costs and liabilities (including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws, or any permit, license or approval, any related constraints on operating activities and any potential liabilities to third parties). On the basis of such review, the Borrower has reasonably concluded that such associated costs and liabilities could not, singly or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) The operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are and have been conducted at all times in compliance with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, as amended, the money laundering statutes of all jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any governmental agency (collectively, the "Money Laundering Laws") and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the best knowledge of the Borrower, threatened.

Section 3.16.Pari Passu Status. The obligations of each Credit Party under the Loan Documents constitute direct and unconditional obligations of such Credit Party and rank at least pari passu in right of payment, with all other obligations of such Credit Party at any time outstanding; except (i) with respect to assets that are subject to Permitted Liens and (ii) that in any bankruptcy proceeding initiated in Mexico pursuant to the laws of Mexico, labor claims (with respect to base salary, exclusively for a period of two years), claims of tax authorities for unpaid taxes, litigation costs, fees and expenses of the mediator (conciliador), receiver (sIndico) and visitor (visitador), social security quotas, workers' housing fund quotas, retirement fund quotas and claims of secured creditors up to the value of their respective collateral will have priority over claims of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

provided, that the value of any Qualified Capital Stock issued in exchange for Subordinated Indebtedness and any net cash proceeds referred to above will be excluded from clause (3)(B) of the first paragraph of this Section 5.05 (and were not included therein at any time).

In determining the aggregate amount of Restricted Payments made subsequent to the Effective Date, amounts expended pursuant to clause (1), (2) (to the extent such loans and advances are not repaid) or (3) (without duplication for the declaration of the relevant dividend) above will be included in such calculation and amounts expended pursuant to clauses (2) (to the extent such loans and advances are repaid), (3) and (4) above will not be included in such calculation.

Section 5.06.Limitation on Asset Sales.

(a) Asset Sales. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(i) the Borrower or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; and

(ii) (A) prior to the Asset Sale Amount exceeding $300,000,000, the consideration received for the assets sold by the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in the Asset Sale will be in the form of (I) with respect to at least 80% of such consideration, cash, Cash Equivalents or the assumption of Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness owed to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or any Subordinated Indebtedness) and (II) with respect to the remainder of such consideration, if any,

(1) property or assets (other than current assets as determined in accordance with Mexican GAAP, except for current assets acquired incidental to the acquisition of assets that constitute a line of business, or Capital Stock) to be owned by and used in a Permitted Business of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary;

(2) Capital Stock of (i) one or more Persons engaged in a Permitted Business (except as otherwise permitted by Section 5.15) which thereby become Restricted Subsidiaries, or (ii) a Restricted Subsidiary, in each case which Capital Stock was acquired from a third party other than the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary (Clauses (1) and (2), together, "Replacement Assets"), in each case received at the time of such Asset Sale; or

(3) promissory notes or debt securities representing seller financing ("Seller Financing"); and

(B) upon and after the Asset Sale Amount exceeding $300,000,000, 100% of the consideration received for assets sold by the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in the Asset Sale will be in the form of:

(1) cash, Cash Equivalents or the assumption of Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness owed to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or any Subordinated Indebtedness);

(2) Replacement Assets; or

(3) Seller Financing.

The Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, may apply the Net Cash Proceeds of any such Asset Sale to prepay obligations as required or permitted under the Existing Senior Note Indenture or the Existing Credit Facility.

(b) Asset Sale Offer. (i) To the extent all or a portion of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary are not applied as described in the paragraph set forth above on or prior to the last day for the application of such proceeds therefor, provided that the aggregate amount of such Net Cash Proceeds not so applied and not previously the subject of an Asset Sale Offer (at any time, the "Unapplied Net Cash Proceeds") is at least $5 million (such date, the "Asset Sale Offer Trigger Date"), the Borrower will make an offer to prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Loans (the "Asset Sale Offer") equal to such Unapplied Net Cash Proceeds (the "Asset Sale Offer Amount"). Such Asset Sale Offer shall be made at 100% of the principal amount of the Loans to be prepaid, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts payable under Section 5.04 in connection therewith, to the date of prepayment. The Borrower will prepay pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer Loans from all Lenders accepting such Asset Sale Offer (the "Accepting Lenders") on a pro rata basis (based on the amount of Loans the Accepting Lenders have elected to have prepaid). Pending application in accordance with this Section, amounts equal to the amount of such Asset Sale Offer will be invested in Cash Equivalents.

(ii) To conduct an Asset Sale Offer, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Asset Sale Offer Notice offering to prepay the Loans as described above. Each Asset Sale Offer Notice shall state, in addition to the matters specified in the definition thereof, the prepayment date (the "Asset Sale Offer Payment Date"), which shall be no later than the fifth Business Day after receipt was due of the Lenders' election to have their Loans repaid in accordance with the following sentence. The Administrative Agent shall forward such Asset Sale Offer Notice to the Lenders within one Business Day following its receipt thereof. Upon receiving an Asset Sale Offer Notice, each Lender may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower not later than five Business Days after receipt of the Asset Sale Notice, to have its Loan prepaid in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000, and shall notify the Administrative Agent of its acceptance thereof and, if relevant, the portion of its Loan to which such acceptance applies. Any Lender that does not deliver notice of its election to have its Loans repaid within five Business Days after receipt of the Asset Sale Notice, such Lender shall be deemed to have declined the Asset Sale Offer.

(iii) On the Asset Sale Offer Payment Date, the Borrower will, to the extent lawful, prepay the relevant portion of each Loan as to which such Asset Sale Offer has been accepted on the terms specified in this Section. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Loans the Accepting Lenders elected to have prepaid (the "Applicable Loans") exceeds the Asset Sale Offer Amount, the Borrower will prepay the Applicable Loans on a pro rata basis (based on amounts of the Applicable Loans as to which the Asset Sale Offer was accepted).

(iv) Upon completion of an Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Net Cash Proceeds will be reset at zero. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Loans prepaid pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Asset Sale Offer Amount, the Borrower may use any remaining Net Cash Proceeds for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

(v) If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any non-cash consideration), the conversion or disposition will be deemed to constitute an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Cash Proceeds thereof will be applied in accordance with this Section 5.06 within the applicable time period from such conversion or disposition as set forth above.

Section 5.07.Limitation on the Ownership of Capital Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries. The Borrower will not permit any Person other than the Borrower or another Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, own or control any Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary, except for:

(a) Capital Stock owned by such Person (or any direct or indirect transferee thereof) as of the Effective Date;

(b) directors' qualifying shares;

(d) the ownership by Persons other than the Borrower, its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Affiliate of Vitro of Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary so long as the Borrower directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary owns and controls at least 51% of the Voting Stock of, and economic interest in, such Restricted Subsidiary;

(e) the sale of 100% of the shares of the Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary held by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries to any Person other than the Borrower or another Restricted Subsidiary effected in accordance with Section 5.06; and

(f) in the case of a Restricted Subsidiary other than a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, the issuance by that Restricted Subsidiary of Capital Stock on a pro rata basis to the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and minority holders of the Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary, on the other hand (or on less than a pro rata basis to any minority holder).

Section 5.08.Limitation on Designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries. The Borrower may designate after the Effective Date any Subsidiary of the Borrower as an "Unrestricted Subsidiary" under this Agreement (a "Designation") only if:

(i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and be continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such Designation and any transactions between the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and such Unrestricted Subsidiary are in compliance with Section 5.11;

(ii) at the time of and after giving effect to such Designation, the Required Consolidated Fixed Coverage Ratio shall be satisfied;

(iii) the Borrower would be permitted to make an Investment at the time of Designation (assuming the effectiveness of such Designation and treating such Designation as an Investment at the time of Designation) as a Restricted Payment pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 5.05 in an amount (the "Designation Amount") equal to the amount of the Borrower's Investment in such Subsidiary on such date; and

(iv) such Subsidiary is not a Vitro Restricted Subsidiary.

(b) Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary will at any time:

(i) provide credit support for, subject any of its property or assets (other than the Capital Stock of any Unrestricted Subsidiary) to the satisfaction of, or Guarantee, any Indebtedness of any Unrestricted Subsidiary (including any undertaking, agreement or instrument evidencing such Indebtedness);

(ii) be directly or indirectly liable for any Indebtedness of any Unrestricted Subsidiary; or

(iii) be directly or indirectly liable for any Indebtedness which provides that the holder thereof may (upon notice, lapse of time or both) declare a default thereon or cause the payment thereof to be accelerated or payable prior to its final scheduled maturity upon the occurrence of a default with respect to any Indebtedness of any Unrestricted Subsidiary; except

(A) for any non-recourse Guarantee given solely to support the pledge by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Capital Stock of any Unrestricted Subsidiary; and

(B) that the Borrower may Guarantee any Indebtedness of an Unrestricted Subsidiary if at the time of and after giving effect to such Guarantee, the Required Consolidated Fixed Coverage Ratio shall be satisfied and the first paragraph of Section 5.05 and the aggregate amount of all Guarantees of the Borrower of Indebtedness of Unrestricted Subsidiaries shall not exceed $50 million.

(i) No Default or Event of Default has occurred and be continuing at the time of and after giving effect to such Revocation; and

(ii) all Liens and Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary outstanding immediately following such Revocation would, if Incurred at such time, have been permitted to be Incurred for all purposes of this Agreement.

(d) The Designation of a Subsidiary of the Borrower as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to include the Designation of all of the Subsidiaries of such Subsidiary. All Designations and Revocations must be evidenced by resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Borrower, delivered to the Administrative Agent certifying compliance with the preceding provisions.

Section 5.09.Limitation on Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries. (a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) below, the Borrower will not, and will not cause or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or permit to exist or become effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

(i) pay dividends or make any other distributions on or in respect of its Capital Stock to the Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary or pay any Indebtedness owed to the Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary;

(ii) make loans or advances to the Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary; or

(iii) transfer any of its property or assets to the Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary.

(b) Paragraph (a) above will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

(i) applicable law;

(ii) this Agreement;

(iii) any encumbrances or restrictions in effect as of the Effective Date and any encumbrances or restrictions contained in extensions, refinancings, renewals or replacements of any Indebtedness outstanding on the Effective Date that are not materially more restrictive than those in existence on the Effective Date;

(iv) customary non-assignment provisions of any contract and customary provisions restricting assignment or subletting in any lease governing a leasehold interest of any Restricted Subsidiary, or any customary restriction on the ability of a Restricted Subsidiary to dividend, distribute or otherwise transfer any asset which secures Indebtedness secured by a Lien, in each case permitted to be Incurred under this Agreement;

(v) any instrument governing Acquired Indebtedness not Incurred in connection with, or in anticipation or contemplation of, the relevant acquisition, merger or consolidation, which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person or the properties or assets of the Person so acquired;

(vi) restrictions with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower imposed pursuant to a binding agreement which has been entered into for the sale or disposition of Capital Stock or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary; provided, that such restrictions apply solely to the Capital Stock or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary being sold;

(vii) customary restrictions imposed on the transfer of copyrighted or patented materials;

(viii) arising in connection with the Incurrence of Indebtedness of a Guarantor after the Effective Date; provided, that such encumbrances or restrictions (1) relate solely to such Guarantor, are required in order to effect such financing and are not more restrictive on the ability of such Guarantor to make the payments, distributions, loans, advances or transfers referred to above than necessarily and customarily accepted and (2) the proposed encumbrances or restrictions, taken together with other encumbrances or restrictions on the payments, distributions, loans, advances or transfers referred to above in effect with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries, do not prevent the Restricted Subsidiaries of the Borrower from making distributions to the Borrower sufficient to pay amounts payable in respect of its Indebtedness due during the 12 month period immediately following the Incurrence of such Indebtedness;

(ix) arising in connection with the Incurrence of Indebtedness by a Permitted Joint Venture after the Effective Date, provided, that such encumbrances or restrictions are required in order to effect such financing and are not more restrictive on the ability of the applicable Permitted Joint Venture to make the payments, distributions, loans, advances or transfers referred to above than necessarily and customarily accepted; or

(x) customary provisions in joint venture agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice.

Nothing contained in this Section 5.09 shall prevent the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary from (1) creating, incurring, assuming or suffering to exist any Liens otherwise permitted by Section 5.10 or (2) restricting the sale or other disposition of property or assets of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that secure Indebtedness provided such restriction is otherwise permitted by Section 5.10.

Section 5.10.Limitation on Liens. The Borrower will not, and will not cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, incur any Liens of any kind securing Indebtedness against or upon any assets or property or any proceeds therefrom (except for Permitted Liens) unless contemporaneously therewith effective provision is made to secure the Loans, or in the case of a Guarantor, the relevant Loan Guarantee, and all other amounts due under this Agreement equally and ratably with such Indebtedness or other obligation (or, in the event that such Indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to the Loans or the relevant Loan Guarantee, as the case may be, prior to such Indebtedness or other obligation) with a Lien on the same properties and assets securing such Indebtedness or other obligation for so long as such Indebtedness or other obligation is secured by such Lien.

Section 5.11. Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with, or for the benefit of, any of its Affiliates (each an "Affiliate Transaction"), unless:

(ii) in the event that such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate payments, or transfers of property or services with a Fair Market Value, in excess of $5 million, the terms of such Affiliate Transaction will be approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Borrower (including a majority of the disinterested members thereof), the approval to be evidenced by a Board Resolution stating that the Board of Directors has determined that such transaction complies with the preceding provisions; and

(iii) in the event that such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate payments, or transfers of property or services with a Fair Market Value, in excess of $10 million, the Borrower will, prior to the consummation thereof, obtain a favorable opinion as to the fairness of such Affiliate Transaction to the Borrower and the relevant Restricted Subsidiary (if any) from a financial point of view from an Independent Financial Advisor and file the same with the Administrative Agent.

(b) Section 5.11(a) above will not apply to:

(i) Affiliate Transactions with or among the Borrower and any Restricted Subsidiary or between or among Restricted Subsidiaries, excluding any Affiliate Transaction with a Restricted Subsidiary in which Vitro or any of its Affiliates directly or indirectly own any Capital Stock (other than by virtue of ownership by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries or the issuance to Vitro or any of its Affiliates of any nominal shares of the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries as required by applicable law);

(ii) reasonable fees and compensation paid to, and any indemnity provided on behalf of, officers, directors, employees, consultants or agents of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary as determined in good faith by the Borrower's Board of Directors (including contributions to employee stock option plans maintained by Vitro and its Subsidiaries);

(iii) Affiliate Transactions undertaken in the ordinary course of business pursuant to any contractual obligations or rights in existence on the Effective Date (as in effect on the Effective Date) or any amendments, extensions or renewals of such contractual obligations on comparable terms;

(iv) any Restricted Payments made in compliance with Section 5.05;

(v) loans and advances to officers, directors and employees of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary for travel, entertainment, moving and other relocation expenses, in each case made in the ordinary course of business, and not exceeding in the aggregate $300,000 outstanding at any one time;

Liquidity and capital resources" as applied to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, within the time period required under the rules of the SEC for the filing of Form 20-F (or any successor form) by foreign private issuers subject thereto, and

2. reports on Form 6-K (or any successor form) of Vitro including, whether or not required, unaudited quarterly financial statements (which shall include at least a balance sheet, income statement and statement of changes in financial position (cambios en la situacion financiera), in each case prepared in accordance with Mexican GAAP as in effect from time to time) along with other financial information and a discussion of results in each case with (i) at least the level of information provided by Vitro in its Form 6-K for the second quarter of 2005 and (ii) a discussion of net sales, cost of sales, general, administrative and selling expenses, operating income and net income of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries covering the periods for which the discussion of results is presented for Vitro, within 60 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year,

(c) concurrently with each delivery of financial statements under clause (b) above, a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of the Borrower (i) certifying as to whether a Default has occurred and is continuing and, if a Default has occurred and is continuing, specifying the details thereof and any action taken or proposed to be taken with respect thereto and (ii) stating whether any change in Mexican GAAP or in the application thereof has occurred since the date of the Borrower's December 31, 2004 audited financial statements referred to in Section 3.06 or delivered pursuant to this Section and, if any such change has occurred, specifying the effect of such change on the financial statements accompanying such certificate; and

(d) promptly following any request therefor, such other information regarding the operations, business affairs and financial condition of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or compliance with the terms of any Loan Document, as the Administrative Agent or any Lender may reasonably request.

Section 5.14. Payment of Additional Amounts.

(a) All payments by the Borrower in respect of the Loans or by a Guarantor in respect of its Loan Guarantee shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments, fees or other governmental charges ("Taxes") imposed or levied by or on behalf of Mexico or of any other jurisdiction in which the Borrower or any Guarantor is incorporated or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (any of the aforementioned, a "Taxing Jurisdiction"), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law.

(b) Subject to Section 5.14(c), if the Borrower or a Guarantor is required by the law of any Taxing Jurisdiction to make any such withholding or deduction, the Borrower or such Guarantor shall (i) pay to the Lender Parties such additional amounts ("Additional Amounts") as may be necessary so that every net payment made by the Borrower on the Loans after deduction or withholding for or on account of any such Taxes (including deductions applicable to Additional Amounts payable under this paragraph (b)) shall not be less than the amount the Lender Parties would have received with respect to such Loans had no such deduction or withholding been made; and (ii) pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(i) any tax, duty, assessment, fee or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection, including a permanent establishment or fixed base, between such Lender Party and Mexico or any other applicable Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such governmental charge other than by the receipt of such payment and the terms of the Loan Documents;

(ii) any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge; or

(iii) in the case of any Lender Party that is or was a Foreign Financial Institution (as defined below) on the date such Person became a Lender and thus subject to the requirements of paragraph (h) below, any withholding taxes imposed as a result of a failure of such Lender to comply with its obligations set forth in paragraph (h) below, subject to the exceptions and limitations provided therein; provided that the taxes excluded shall be deemed to include only withholdings or deductions payable by the Borrower in respect of payments hereunder in excess of a rate equal to the rate applicable if there had been no such failure by such Lender Party to comply with paragraph (h) below.

(d) At least 30 calendar days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Loans is due and payable (or, as early as practicable, if the obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 30th day prior to such date), if the Borrower or a Guarantor will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment in an amount different than the Additional Amounts payable on the date hereof, the Borrower or such Guarantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Officers' Certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable, and setting forth such other information necessary to enable the Administrative Agent to pay such Additional Amounts to Lenders on the payment date. In the absence of any such certificate, the Administrative Agent may assume that no such deduction or withholding shall be required. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without bad faith on its part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by it in reliance, absent manifest error, on any certificate furnished pursuant to this Section 5.14(d) or not furnished. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 5.14(d) shall survive the payment of the Loans, the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent and/or the termination of this Agreement.

(e) The Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, shall provide to the Administrative Agent documentation evidencing payment of withholding taxes within 30 days after payment thereof. Copies of such documentation shall be made available to Lenders upon written request therefor.

(f) The Borrower or a Guarantor will pay any stamp, issue, registration, documentary or other similar taxes and duties, including interest and penalties in Mexico or the United States or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority of or in the foregoing in respect of the Borrowing.

(g) Whenever in this Agreement there is mentioned, in any context:

(i) the payment of principal, interest or additional interest on the Loans;

(ii) redemption or repurchase prices in respect of the Loans; or

(iii) any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the Loans,

such reference will be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts as described under this Section 5.14 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

(h) Each Lender Party that is a Foreign Financial Institution on the Effective Date (or, if such Lender Party becomes a Lender after the Effective Date as a result of an assignment, on the date of such assignment) shall, at the request of the Borrower, made pursuant to a written notice given at least 30 days prior to the relevant filing date, use reasonable commercial efforts to file with the Ministry of Finance or, where applicable, in accordance with the laws of any jurisdiction outside Mexico from or through which payments hereunder or under any Notes are made, a form, certificate or other similar document requested by the Borrower (including without limitation any such form, certificate or other similar document that may be required to maintain such Lender Party's status as a Foreign Financial Institution) if (1) such filing is required under applicable law or a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation then in effect, (2) such filing would avoid the need for making any tax withholding or deduction, or reduce the tax rate of any such withholding or deduction which may thereafter accrue to or for the account of such Lender Party pursuant to this Section and (3) such filing would not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender Party, require such Lender Party to disclose any confidential or proprietary information or be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that nothing in this Section shall interfere with the rights of any Lender Party to conduct its fiscal or tax affairs in such manner as it deems appropriate. As used herein, "Foreign Financial Institution" means an institution registered as a foreign financial institution with the Ministry of Finance in the registry referred to in Article 197 of Mexico's Income Tax Law and any successor provision thereof, for purposes of fraccion I, inciso a), subinciso 2, of Article 195 of Mexico's Income Tax Law.

(i) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against, and reimburse each Lender on demand for, any Taxes and any loss, liability, claim or expense, including interest, penalties and legal fees, that such Lender may incur at any time arising out of or in connection with any failure of the Borrower to make any payment of Taxes when due provided that the Borrower shall not be obligated to make payment to the Lender pursuant to this clause (i) in respect of penalties, interest and other liabilities attributable to any Taxes, if (i) written demand therefor has not been made by the Lender within 60 days from the date on which the Lender had actual knowledge of the imposition of Taxes by the relevant taxing or governmental authority or (ii) such penalties, interest and other liabilities are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender. After the Lender learns of the imposition of Taxes, the Lender shall act in good faith to notify the relevant Borrower of its obligations hereunder.

Section 5.15 . Limitation On Merger, Consolidation And Sale Of Assets.

(a) The Borrower will not, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, consolidate or merge with or into any Person (whether or not the Borrower is the surviving or continuing Person), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of (or cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary to sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of) all or substantially all of the Borrower's properties and assets (determined on a consolidated basis for the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries), to any Person unless:

(i) either:

(A) the Borrower will be the surviving or continuing corporation, or

(B) the Person (if other than the Borrower) formed by such consolidation or into which the Borrower is merged or the Person which acquires by sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition the properties and assets of the Borrower and of the Borrower's Restricted Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety (the "Successor Borrower"):

(1) shall be a corporation organized and validly existing under the laws of Mexico, and

(2) will expressly assume, by supplemental agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent, the due and punctual payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on all of the Loans and the performance and observance of every covenant of the Loans, this Agreement, the Notes and each other Loan Document on the part of the Borrower to be performed or observed;

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the assumption contemplated by Section 5.15(a)(i)(B)(y) above (including giving effect on a pro forma basis to any Indebtedness, including any Acquired Indebtedness, Incurred or anticipated to be Incurred in connection with or in respect of such transaction), the Borrower or such Successor Borrower, as the case may be:

(A) will have a Consolidated Net Worth equal to or greater than the Consolidated Net Worth of the Borrower immediately prior to such transaction, and

(B) will be able to satisfy the Required Consolidated Fixed Coverage Ratio.

(iii) immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the assumption contemplated by Section 5.15(a)(i)(B)(2) above (including, without limitation, giving effect on a pro forma basis to any Indebtedness, including any Acquired Indebtedness, Incurred or anticipated to be Incurred and any Lien granted in connection with or in respect of the transaction), no Default or Event of Default has occurred or be continuing;

(iv) the Borrower or the Successor Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that the consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition comply with the applicable provisions of this Agreement and that all conditions precedent in this Agreement relating to the transaction have been satisfied; and

(v) each Guarantor (including Persons that become Guarantors as a result of the transaction) has confirmed by an addendum hereto (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) that its Loan Guarantee will apply for the Obligations of the Successor Borrower in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

For purposes of this Section, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or otherwise, in a single transaction or series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries of the Borrower, the Capital Stock of which constitutes all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower (determined on a consolidated basis for the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries), will be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower provided that the provisions of Section 5.15(a)(i) and Section 5.15(a)(v) shall not apply in respect of any such transaction to any Person (other than the Borrower) that otherwise would be a surviving or continuing corporation subject to Section 5.15(a)(i)(A) or that would be required to assume the Obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents subject to Section 5.15(a)(i)(B), to the extent such Person is or becomes a Guarantor in accordance with Section 5.15(d) below.

(b) The provisions of Section 5.15(a) above will not apply to:

(i) any transfer of the properties or assets of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary to the Borrower or a Guarantor;

(iii) any merger of the Borrower into a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower created for the purpose of holding the Capital Stock of the Borrower,

so long as, in each case the Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole is not increased thereby and such transferee or surviving or continuing person, as applicable, assumes the Obligations under and becomes a party to the applicable Loan Documents in accordance with the terms thereof.

(c) Upon any consolidation, combination or merger or any transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with this Section 5.15, in which the Borrower is not the continuing corporation, the Successor Borrower formed by such consolidation or into which the Borrower is merged or to which such conveyance, lease or transfer is made will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Borrower under this Agreement and the Loans with the same effect as if such Successor Borrower had been named as such.

(d) Each Guarantor will not, and the Borrower will not cause or permit any Guarantor to, consolidate with or merge into, or sell or dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, any Person (other than the Borrower) that is not a Guarantor unless:

(i) such Person (if such Person is the surviving entity) assumes all of the obligations of such Guarantor in respect of its Loan Guarantee by executing an accession agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit D and providing the Administrative Agent with an Officers' Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, and such transaction is otherwise in compliance with this Agreement;

(ii) such Loan Guarantee is to be released as provided under Article 8; or

(iii) such sale or other disposition of substantially all of such Guarantor's assets is made in accordance with Section 5.06.

Section 5.17 . Additional Guarantors. If at any time any Subsidiary is required to become a "Guarantor" pursuant to the Existing Credit Facility, such Subsidiary shall simultaneously execute an addendum to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in order to become a Guarantor party hereto.

Section 7.02 . Rights and Powers as a Lender. A bank serving as the Administrative Agent shall, in its capacity as a Lender, have the same rights and powers as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent. Such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent.

Section 7.03. Limited Duties and Responsibilities. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required in writing to exercise by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for any failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv)the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Section 7.04. Authority to Rely on Certain Writings, Statements and Advice. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on, and shall not incur any liability for relying on, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely on any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 7.05. Sub-Agents and Related Parties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through one or more sub-agents appointed by it. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding Sections of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

Section 7.06. Resignation; Successor Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this Section, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the approval of Borrower (unless an Event of Default exists, in which case the approval of the Borrower will not be required), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders with the approval of the Borrower, if required, and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500 million. Upon acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Section 7.07. Credit Decisions by Lenders.

Article 8
Loan Guarantees

Section 8.01. Loan Guarantees. Each Guarantor unconditionally guarantees the full and punctual payment of (x) all principal of all Loans outstanding from time to time under this Agreement, (y) all interest (including any interest that accrues after the commencement of any case, proceeding or other action relating to the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Borrower (or would accrue but for the operation of applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws), whether or not such interest is allowed or allowable as a claim in any such proceeding) on such Loans and (z) all other amounts now or hereafter payable by the Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents (the amounts described in clauses (x), (y) and (z), collectively, the "Obligations") when due (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise). If the Borrower fails to pay any Obligation punctually when due, each Guarantor agrees that it will forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in this Agreement, including without limitation with respect to Additional Amounts as provided under Section 5.14, which shall apply to each Guarantor in making payments hereunder as fully as though such Guarantor were the "Borrower" in making payments hereunder.

Section 8.02 . Guarantees Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor under its Loan Guarantee shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:

(a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person under any Loan Document, by operation of law or otherwise;

(b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to any Loan Document;

(c) any release, impairment, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any obligation of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person under any Loan Document;

(d) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any of their respective subsidiaries, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, concurso mercantil, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any of their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person under any Loan Document;

(e) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right that such Guarantor may have at any time against the Borrower, any other Guarantor, any Lender Party or any other Person, whether in connection with the Loan Documents or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;

(f) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person for any reason of any Loan Document, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment of any Obligation by the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person; or

(g) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other party to any Loan Document, any Lender Party or any other Person, or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this clause (g), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to any obligation of any Guarantor hereunder.

Section 8.03 . Release of Guarantees. (a) All the Guarantees will be released when all the Commitments have expired or terminated and the principal of and interest on each Loan and all fees payable hereunder have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of an Obligation is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency or receivership of the Borrower or otherwise, the Loan Guarantees shall be reinstated with respect thereto as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.

(b) If all the capital stock of a Guarantor or all the assets of a Guarantor are sold to a Person other than the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries in a transaction permitted by this Agreement (any such sale, a "Sale of Guarantor"), the Administrative Agent shall release such Guarantor from its Loan Guarantee; provided that, if such sale is a Prepayment Event, arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent have been made to apply the Net Proceeds thereof as required by this Agreement. Such release shall not require the consent of any Lender Party, and the Administrative Agent shall be fully protected in relying on a certificate of the Borrower as to whether any particular sale constitutes a Sale of Guarantor.

(c) In addition to any release permitted by subsection (b), the Administrative Agent may release any Loan Guarantee with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders; provided that any release of all or substantially all the Loan Guarantees shall require the consent of all the Lenders.

Section 8.04 . Waiver by Guarantors. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any other Person, prior to making a claim against such Guarantor, and any right to which it may otherwise be entitled to (i) require any Lender or the Administrative Agent to xxx and/or complete an action against the Borrower or any other Credit Party prior to a claim being made against such Guarantor hereunder; (ii) have the assets of any the Borrower or any other Credit Party first be used and/or applied in full or in part as payment of the Borrower's or any such other Credit Party's obligations under the Loan Document prior to any amounts being claimed from or paid by such Guarantor hereunder; or (iii) have its obligations hereunder divided among itself and one or more other Credit Parties, if such Guarantor's obligations would be less than the full amount claimed hereunder. In addition, each Guarantor hereby waives, to the extent applicable, the benefits of orden, excusion, division, prorroga and quita and any benefits it may have under any of Articles 2813 through 2823, Articles 2839 and 2840 or Articles 2844 through 2849 (in each case inclusive) of Mexico's Federal Civil Code (the "Civil Code"), and the correlative articles of the civil codes of each political subdivision of Mexico. The obligations assumed by each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by the absence of judicial request of payment by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, and whether or not any Lender or the Administrative Agent takes any action within the time set forth in Articles 2848 and 2849 of the Civil Code, and each Guarantor hereby expressly waives the provisions of such Articles.

Section 8.05 . Subrogation. A Guarantor that makes a payment with respect to a Obligation hereunder shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Borrower with respect to such payment; provided that no Guarantor shall enforce any payment by way of subrogation against the Borrower, or by reason of contribution against any other Guaranteeing Person of such Obligation, until all the Commitments have expired or terminated and the principal of and interest on each Loan and all fees payable hereunder have been paid in full.

Section 8.06 . Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any Obligation by the Borrower is stayed by reason of the insolvency or receivership of the Borrower or otherwise, all Obligations otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any Loan Document shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent.

Section 8.07. Continuing Loan Guarantee. Each Loan Guarantee is a continuing guarantee, shall be binding on the relevant Guarantor and its successors and assigns, and shall be enforceable by the Administrative Agent or the Lender Parties. If all or part of any Lender Party's interest in any Obligation is assigned or otherwise transferred as permitted hereby, the transferor's rights under each Loan Guarantee, to the extent applicable to the obligation so transferred, shall automatically be transferred with such obligation.

Section 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by any Lender Party in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Lender Parties under the Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by subsection (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Lender Party had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) No Loan Document or provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the parties thereto with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall:

(iv) change Section 2.11(b) or 2.11(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender;

(v) change any provision of this Section or the percentage set forth in the definition of "Required Lenders" or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to take any action thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; or

(vi) release any Guarantor from its Loan Guarantee (except as expressly provided in Section 8.03), or limit its liability in respect of its Loan Guarantee, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent without its prior written consent.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Required Lenders enter into or consent to any waiver, amendment or modification pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section, no consent of any other Lender will be required if, when such waiver, amendment or modification becomes effective, (i) the Commitment of each Lender not consenting thereto terminates and (ii) all amounts owing to it or accrued for its account hereunder are paid in full; provided that this Section 9.02(c) shall not give the Borrower any additional right to prepay.

Section 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out‑of‑pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Lender Party, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Lender Party, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents (including its rights under this Section) or the Loans, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of the Loans.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify each of the Lender Parties and their respective Related Parties (each such Person being called an "Indemnitee") against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, direct damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any Environmental Liability related in any way, directly or indirectly, to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not be available to any Indemnitee to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses have resulted from such Indemnitee's or any of such Indemnitee's Affiliates' gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender's pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought, on the basis of respective outstanding Loans) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable within 10 Business Days after written demand therefor.

Section 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (except the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly provided herein, the Related Parties of the Lender Parties) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of any Commitment it has at the time and any Loans at the time owing to it); provided that:

(i) unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment shall not be less than $1,000,000; provided that this sub-clause (i) shall not apply to an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment or Loans;

(ii) the parties to each such assignment shall (a) electronically execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (which initially shall be ClearPar, LLC) or (b) manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (such fee payable by the assignor or assignee, as agreed by the parties); provided that only one such fee shall be due in respect of a simultaneous assignment to more than one Lender Affiliate; and

(iii) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a completed Administrative Questionnaire and applicable tax forms;

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to subsection (d) of this Section, from and after the Effective Date specified in each Assignment the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.09, 2.10, 5.14 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 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 subsection (e) of this Section.

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City a copy of each Assignment delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, their respective Commitments and the principal amounts of the Loans owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the parties hereto may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any party hereto at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed Administrative Questionnaire and applicable tax forms (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in subsection (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by subsection (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this subsection.

(e) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or any other Lender Party, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities ("Participants") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower and the other Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (f) of this Section, each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections Section 2.09, 2.10 and 5.14 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.09 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower's prior written consent.

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h) If at any time any Lender that is a Foreign Financial Institution (as defined in Section 5.14) is required to file with the Ministry of Finance a report setting forth each effective beneficiary (beneficiario efectivo) of payments made to such Lender of interest on its Loans, such Lender shall contemporaneously deliver a copy of such report to the Borrower.

Section 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties in the Loan Documents and in certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Lender Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any principal of or accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable hereunder is outstanding and unpaid or any Commitment has not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.09, 2.10, 5.14 and 9.03 and Article 7 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement (i) will become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have signed this Agreement and received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto and (ii) thereafter will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy will be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 9.07. Severability. If any provision of any Loan Document is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent (but only to the extent) of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, (ii) the other provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and (iii) the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any such provision in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.08. Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing hereunder and held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

Section 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any relevant appellate court (each, a "New York Court"), in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York Court. Each party hereto (i) expressly and irrevocably waives its rights to any other jurisdiction to which it may be entitled to by reason of its present or future domiciles or for any other reason, and (ii) agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(c) Each Credit Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document in any court referred to in subsection (b) of this Section and any right to which it may be entitled on account of place of residence or domicile. Each party hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably designates, appoints, authorizes and empowers as its agent for service of process, CT Corporation System, at its offices currently located at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 (the "Process Agent"), to receive and forward on its behalf service of any and all process, notices or other documents that may be served in any suit, action or proceeding relating hereto in any New York Court (as defined in subsection (b) of this Section). Each Credit Party consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in this Section by serving a copy thereof upon the Process Agent. Without prejudice to the foregoing, the Lenders agree that to the extent lawful and possible, written notice of said service upon the Process Agent shall also be mailed by registered or certified airmail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to such Credit Party at the address provided pursuant to Section 9.01. If said service upon the Process Agent shall not be possible or shall otherwise be impractical after reasonable efforts to effect the same, the Borrower consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in the Section by the mailing of a copy thereof by registered or certified airmail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the address of such Credit Party provided pursuant to Section 9.01, which service shall be effective 14 days after deposit in the United States Postal Service. Each Credit Party agrees that such service (1) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (2) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Without limitation of the foregoing, each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in any Loan Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

(e) To the extent that any Credit Party has or hereafter may be entitled to claim or may acquire, for itself or any of its assets, any immunity from suit, jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, such Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under the Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, agrees that the waivers set forth in this Section shall be effective to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States and are intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such Act.

Section 9.10. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

Section 9.12. Confidentiality. Each Lender Party agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), provided that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates' directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document or the enforcement of any right thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any actual or prospective assignee of or Participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information either (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to any Lender Party on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, provided, further, that the Borrower and each Lender Party hereby agrees that the Borrower and each Lender Party (and each of their respective employees, representatives, or agents) are permitted to disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the structure and tax aspects of the transactions contemplated herein, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that relate to such structure and tax aspects. In this regard, the parties acknowledge and agree that any disclosure of the structure or tax aspects of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not limited in any way by an express or implied understanding or agreement, oral or written (whether or not such understanding or agreement is legally binding). For the purposes of this Section, "Information" means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to any Lender Party on a nonconfidential basis before disclosure by the Borrower; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 9.13 . Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the "Charges"), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the "Maximum Rate") that may be contracted for, charged or otherwise received by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such Lender shall have received such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of payment.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
