(b) To request a Swingline Loan, the applicable Borrower, or Parent on its behalf, shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (promptly confirmed by Electronic Communication of a written Borrowing Request signed by the applicable Borrower, or by Parent on its behalf) not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from, or on behalf of, a Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the applicable Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of such Borrower with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan requested to be made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e), by remittance to the account of the applicable Issuing Bank identified in such Borrowing Request) by 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.

(c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on any Business Day require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans in which the Revolving Lenders will be required to participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Combined Tranche Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay, promptly upon receipt of notice as provided above (and in any event, if such notice is received by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on a Business Day, no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Business Day and if received after 12:00 noon, New York City time, on a Business Day, no later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately succeeding Business Day), to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Combined Tranche Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that, in making any Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon the representation and warranty of each Borrower deemed made pursuant to Section 4.02, unless, at least two Business Days prior to the time such Swingline Loan was made, the Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders shall have notified the Swingline Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in writing that, as a result of one or more events or circumstances described in such notice, one or more of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 would not be satisfied if such Swingline Loan were then made (it being understood

and agreed that, in the event the Swingline Lender shall have received any such notice, it shall have no obligation to make any Swingline Loan until and unless it shall be satisfied that the events and circumstances described in such notice shall have been cured or otherwise shall have ceased to exist). Each Revolving Lender further acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders pursuant to this paragraph), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from a Borrower (or other Person on behalf of a Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to a Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve a Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

SECTION 2.06. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by a Borrower to, or entered into by a Borrower with, an Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. The Existing Letters of Credit will, for all purposes of this Agreement (including paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section), be deemed to have been issued hereunder on the Original Effective Date and will, for all purposes of this Agreement, constitute Letters of Credit. This Section shall not be construed to impose an obligation upon any Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit if (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or, in the case of any Borrowing Subsidiary designated as such after the date hereof, shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital or liquidity

requirement, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense, in each case for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder, (ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of general applicability of such Issuing Bank or (iii) such Letter of Credit is not of the type, or in the currency, approved for issuance by such Issuing Bank (with each Issuing Bank acknowledging that standby Letters of Credit are of the type approved for issuance by such Issuing Bank).

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit, other than an automatic renewal permitted pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section), the applicable Borrower shall deliver by Electronic Communication to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the currency in which such Letter of Credit is to be denominated (which shall be US Dollars or an Alternative Currency), the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to enable the applicable Issuing Bank to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any such request. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon each issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed US$15,000,000, (ii) any Lender’s US Tranche Revolving Exposure shall not exceed such Lender’s US Tranche Revolving Commitment, (iii) the Aggregate US Tranche Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate US Tranche Revolving Commitment, (iv) any Lender’s European Tranche Revolving Exposure shall not exceed such Lender’s European Tranche Revolving Commitment, (v) the Aggregate European Tranche Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate European Tranche Revolving Commitment and (vi) the portion of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank shall not exceed the LC Commitment of such Issuing Bank.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall by its terms expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date 18 months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, 13 months after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date; provided that any Letter of Credit may contain customary automatic renewal provisions agreed upon by the applicable Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to which the expiration date of such Letter of Credit shall automatically be extended for a period of up to 13 months (but not to a date later than the date set forth in clause (ii) above), subject to a right on the part of such Issuing Bank to prevent any such renewal from occurring pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, the Issuing Bank that is the issuer thereof hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Combined Tranche Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Combined Tranche Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment in respect of an LC Disbursement required to be refunded to a Borrower for any reason. Such payment by the Revolving Lenders shall be made (i) if the currency of the applicable LC Disbursement or reimbursement payment shall be US Dollars, in US Dollars and (ii) subject to paragraph (l) of this Section, if the currency of the applicable LC Disbursement or reimbursement payment shall be an Alternative Currency, in US Dollars in an amount equal to the US Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement or reimbursement payment, calculated by the Administrative Agent using the LC Exchange Rate on the applicable LC Participation Calculation Date. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that (A) its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit, the occurrence and continuance of a Default, any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, any fluctuation in currency values, or any force majeure or other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject (including Section 3.14 of ISP 98 or any successor publication of the International Chamber of Commerce) permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the expiration thereof or of the Revolving Commitments and (ii) each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender further acknowledges and agrees that, in issuing, amending, renewing or extending any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon the representation and warranty of each Borrower deemed made pursuant to Section 4.02, unless, at least two Business Days prior to the time such Letter of Credit is issued, amended, renewed or extended (or, in the case of an automatic renewal permitted pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, at least two Business Days prior to the time by which the election not to renew must be made by the applicable Issuing Bank), the Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders shall have notified the applicable Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in writing that, as a result of one or more events or circumstances described in such notice, one or more of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 would not be satisfied if such Letter of Credit were then issued, amended, renewed or extended (it being understood and agreed that, in the event any Issuing Bank shall have received any such notice, it shall have no obligation to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit until and unless it shall be satisfied that the events and circumstances described in such notice shall have been cured or otherwise shall have ceased to exist).

(e) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by

paying to the Administrative Agent an amount in the currency of such LC Disbursement equal to such LC Disbursement not later than (i) if such Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 11:00 a.m., Local Time, on any Business Day, then 4:00 p.m., Local Time, on such Business Day or (ii) otherwise, 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that such Borrower receives such notice; provided that, if such LC Disbursement is denominated in US Dollars and is not less than US$1,000,000, the applicable Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or a Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, such Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the applicable Borrower fails to make any such reimbursement payment when due, (A) if such payment relates to a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, automatically and with no further action required, the obligation of such Borrower to reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the US Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the LC Exchange Rate on the applicable LC Participation Calculation Date, of such LC Disbursement and (B) in the case of each LC Disbursement, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the amount of the payment then due from such Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Combined Tranche Percentage thereof, and each Revolving Lender shall pay in US Dollars to the Administrative Agent on the date such notice is received its Combined Tranche Percentage of the payment then due from such Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders pursuant to this paragraph), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from a Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. If the applicable Borrower’s reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Alternative Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender to any stamp duty, ad valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in US Dollars, such Borrower shall pay the amount of any such tax requested by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Revolving Lender.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of each Borrower to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section is absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any term or provision herein or therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in

any respect, (iii) payment by any Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (iv) any force majeure or other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject (including Section 3.14 of ISP 98 or any successor publication of the International Chamber of Commerce) permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the stated expiration date thereof or of the Commitments or (v) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, such Borrower’s obligations hereunder. None of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit, any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any other act, failure to act or other event or circumstance; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to a Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank (with such absence to be presumed for purposes of this Section 2.06 unless otherwise determined in a nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower by telephone (confirmed by email or facsimile) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof (determined in accordance with the definition thereof) shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is

made to but excluding the date that the applicable Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, (i) in the case of any LC Disbursement denominated in US Dollars, and at all times following the conversion to US Dollars of any LC Disbursement made in an Alternative Currency pursuant to paragraph (e) or (l) of this Section, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans and (ii) if such LC Disbursement is made in an Alternative Currency, at all times prior to its conversion to US Dollars pursuant to paragraph (e) or (l) of this Section, at a rate equal to the rate reasonably determined by the applicable Issuing Bank to be the cost to such Issuing Bank of funding such LC Disbursement plus the Applicable Rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans at such time; provided that, if the applicable Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand has been made, on the date on which the applicable Borrower reimburses the applicable LC Disbursement in full.

(i) Replacement of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among Parent, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank and execution and delivery by Parent, the Administrative Agent and the successor Issuing Bank of an Issuing Bank Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement (including the right to receive fees under Section 2.12(b)), but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that Parent receives notice from the Administrative Agent or a Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, each Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, an amount in US Dollars equal to the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that (i) amounts payable in respect of any Letter of Credit or LC Disbursement shall be payable in the currency of such Letter of Credit or LC Disbursement, except that LC Disbursements in an Alternative Currency in respect of which the applicable Borrower’s reimbursement obligations have been converted to obligations in US Dollars as provided in paragraph (e) or (l) of this Section and interest accrued thereon shall be payable in US Dollars, and (ii) the obligation to

deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower or any Material Subsidiary described in Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i). The Borrowers shall also deposit cash collateral in US Dollars in accordance with this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.20. Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the applicable Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be in Permitted Investments and shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the applicable Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Banks for LC Disbursements for which they have not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the applicable Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of (A) a Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders and (B) in the case of any such application at a time when any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender (but only if, after giving effect thereto, the remaining cash collateral shall be less than the total LC Exposure of all the Defaulting Lenders), the consent of each Issuing Bank), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. If a Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Borrowers provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.20, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers, upon request of the Borrowers, to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, no Issuing Bank shall have any exposure in respect of any outstanding Letter of Credit that is not fully covered by the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or the remaining cash collateral and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(k) Issuing Bank Reports. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the currency and aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amount thereof shall have changed), it being understood that such Issuing Bank shall not effect any issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that such increase is then permitted under this Agreement, (ii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date, currency and amount of such LC Disbursement, (iii) on any Business Day on which a Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the currency and amount of such LC Disbursement and (iv) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

(l) Conversion. In the event that the Loans become immediately due and payable on any date pursuant to Section 7.01, all amounts (i) that the Borrowers are at the time or become thereafter required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC Disbursements made under any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than amounts in respect of which any Borrower has deposited cash collateral, if such cash collateral was deposited in the applicable currency), (ii) that the Revolving Lenders are at the time or become thereafter required to pay to the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent is at the time or becomes thereafter required to distribute to the applicable Issuing Bank) pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made under any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency and (iii) of each Revolving Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the US Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the LC Exchange Rate on such date (or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such date, on the date such LC Disbursement is made), of such amounts. On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender in respect of the obligations described in this paragraph shall accrue and be payable in US Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder.

(m) Communications with Beneficiaries. Each Issuing Bank shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide advance notice to Parent of any formal communication by such Issuing Bank with any beneficiary under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank with respect thereto, other than any such communication in the ordinary course of business or otherwise in accordance with the standard operating procedures of such Issuing Bank.

(n) LC Exposure Determination. For all purposes of this Agreement, the amount of a Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases (other than any such increase consisting of the reinstatement of an amount previously drawn thereunder and reimbursed), whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at the time of determination.

(o) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuing Bank shall not be responsible to any Borrower for, and the Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies against the Borrowers or the other Loan Parties shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the Issuing Bank required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including any law or order of a jurisdiction where the Issuing Bank or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or the UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice

statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.

SECTION 2.07. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the applicable currency by 12:00 noon, Local Time, to the account of the Applicable Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05. The Applicable Agent will make such Loans available to the applicable Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank specified in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Applicable Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Applicable Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance on such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Applicable Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Applicable Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Applicable Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, (A) if denominated in US Dollars, the greater of the New York Fed Bank Rate and a rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (B) if denominated in an Alternative Currency, a rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, or (ii) in the case of such Borrower, (A) if denominated in US Dollars, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans of the applicable Class and (B) if denominated in an Alternative Currency, the interest rate applicable to the subject Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to the Applicable Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. If such Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Applicable Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Applicable Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. Any such payment by any Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Applicable Agent.

SECTION 2.08. Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request or as otherwise provided in Section 2.03. Thereafter, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert any such Borrowing denominated in US Dollars to a different Type or to continue any such

Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The applicable Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or continued. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no Borrower shall be permitted to change the currency of any Borrowing or to convert any Borrowing to a Type not available under the Class of Commitments pursuant to which such Borrowing was made.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the applicable Borrower, or Parent on its behalf, shall notify the Applicable Agent of such election by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type, and in the currency, resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be made by Electronic Communication to the Applicable Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by such Borrower, or Parent on its behalf (or, in the case of any Borrowing denominated in US Dollars, by telephonic notification, confirmed promptly by email or facsimile to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by such Borrower, or Parent on its behalf). Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

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

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

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

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

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

(d) If a Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then such Borrowing (i) if such Borrowing is denominated in US Dollars, shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of such Interest Period and (ii) if such Borrowing is denominated in an Alternative Currency, shall be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in such currency with an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(e) Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if any Event of Default under Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i) has occurred and is continuing, or if any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of a Majority in Interest of Lenders of any Class, has notified the applicable Borrower of the election to give effect to this sentence on account of such other Event of Default, then, in each such case, so long as such Event of Default is continuing (A) in the case of Borrowings denominated in US Dollars, no outstanding Borrowing of such Class may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing of such Class shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, and (B) in the case of Borrowings denominated in Alternative Currencies, unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in such currency shall be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments; Increase of Revolving Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date. Incremental Term Commitments of any Class shall terminate as set forth in the applicable Incremental Facility Agreement.

(b) Parent may at any time terminate, or from time to time permanently reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of US$1,000,000 and not less than US$5,000,000 and (ii) Parent shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments of any Class if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, (A) any Lender’s US Tranche Revolving Exposure would exceed such Lender’s US Tranche Revolving Commitment, (B) the Aggregate US Tranche Revolving Exposure would exceed the Aggregate US Tranche Revolving Commitment, (C) any Lender’s European Tranche Revolving Exposure would exceed such Lender’s European Tranche Revolving Commitment or (D) the Aggregate European Tranche Revolving Exposure would exceed the Aggregate European Tranche Revolving Commitment.

(c) Parent shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each such notice shall be made by Electronic Communication to the Applicable Agent of a written notice signed by Parent. Each notice delivered by Parent pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class delivered by Parent may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by Parent (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the

specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders of such Class in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

(d) Parent may from time to time request increases in the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments under either Tranche pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.09(d).

(i) Parent may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly forward such notice to each Revolving Lender under the applicable Tranche), request that the total Revolving Commitments under either Tranche be increased (each, a “Commitment Increase”) by an amount for each increased Tranche of not less than US$25,000,000; provided that the aggregate amount of any such Commitment Increase on any date shall not exceed the Incremental Amount as of such date. Each such notice shall set forth the amount of the requested Commitment Increase under each Tranche, and the date (the “Increase Effective Date”) on which such adjustment is requested to become effective (which shall be a Business Day not less than 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent) or more than 30 days after the date of such notice). Parent may arrange for one or more Eligible Assignees (each, an “Incremental Revolving Lender” with respect to such Tranche), which may include any Revolving Lender under either Tranche (each Revolving Lender so agreeing being an “Increasing Lender” with respect to such Tranche, and each Revolving Lender so declining being a “Non-Increasing Lender” with respect to such Tranche), to extend Revolving Commitments under the applicable Tranche or, in the case of any Revolving Lender, increase its Revolving Commitment under the applicable Tranche in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the requested Commitment Increase under such Tranche; provided that (A) any Revolving Lender approached to provide any portion of any Commitment Increase may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such portion of such Commitment Increase, (B) each Incremental Revolving Lender shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and (C) no Incremental Revolving Lender (including any Increasing Lender) may provide any portion of any Commitment Increase to the extent that, on the applicable Increase Effective Date such Person and its Affiliates, taken in the aggregate, would hold (x) more than 25% of the sum of the total outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure and total unused Revolving Commitments or (y) more than 25% of the sum of the total outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure, total unused Revolving Commitments, aggregate outstanding principal amount of Incremental Term Loans and total unused Incremental Term Commitments, in each case, determined on such Increase Effective Date immediately after giving effect to such Commitment Increase (and, if applicable, any Commitment Decrease made, and any Incremental Term Commitments established or Incremental Term Loans made, on such Increase Effective Date). Any Commitment Increase under any Tranche may be made in an amount less than the Commitment Increase requested by Parent if Parent is unable to arrange for, or chooses not to arrange for, Incremental Revolving Lenders for the full amount thereof.

(ii) On the Increase Effective Date with respect to any Commitment Increase, (A) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans outstanding under each Tranche under which such Commitment Increase will become effective (the “Initial Borrowings” under such Tranche) immediately prior to giving effect to such Commitment Increase on the Increase Effective Date shall be deemed to be repaid, (B) after the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have made new Revolving Borrowings under such Tranche (the “Subsequent Borrowings” under such Tranche) in an aggregate principal amount and in currency equal to the aggregate principal amount and currency of the Initial Borrowings under such Tranche and of the Types and for the Interest Periods specified in a Borrowing Request delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.03, (C) each Revolving Lender under such Tranche shall pay to the Applicable Agent in same day funds in the applicable currency an amount equal to the difference, if positive, between (1) such Lender’s applicable Tranche Percentage (calculated after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) of the Subsequent Borrowings and (2) such Lender’s applicable Tranche Percentage (calculated without giving effect to such Commitment Increase) of the Initial Borrowings, (D) after the Applicable Agent receives the funds in the applicable currency specified in clause (C) above, the Applicable Agent shall pay to each Revolving Lender under such Tranche the portion of such funds that is equal to the difference, if positive, between (1) such Lender’s applicable Tranche Percentage (calculated without giving effect to such Commitment Increase) of the Initial Borrowings and (2) such Lender’s applicable Tranche Percentage (calculated after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) of the amount of the Subsequent Borrowings, (E) each Non-Increasing Lender and each Incremental Revolving Lender (including each Increasing Lender) shall be deemed to hold its applicable Tranche Percentage of each Subsequent Borrowing (each calculated after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) and (F) each applicable Borrower shall pay each Increasing Lender and each Non-Increasing Lender any and all accrued but unpaid interest on the Initial Borrowings. The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (A) above in respect of each Eurocurrency Loan shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrowers pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.16 if the Increase Effective Date occurs other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto and breakage costs result.

(iii) Commitment Increases and new Revolving Commitments created pursuant to this Section 2.09(d) shall become effective on the date specified in the original notice delivered by Parent pursuant to the first sentence of paragraph (d)(i) above; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Revolving Commitments under any Tranche (or in any Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender) or addition of an Incremental Revolving Lender shall become effective under this Section unless (A) on the Increase Effective Date for such increase, the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02(a) and 4.02(b) shall be satisfied (without giving effect to the parenthetical in Section 4.02(a), but, in each case, deeming all references therein to the date, time or effect of a Borrowing (or an issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit) to refer to the date, time and effect of such increase), (B) the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate dated such Increase Effective Date and executed by a Financial Officer of Parent setting forth, in reasonable detail, the calculation of the Incremental Amount as of such date and confirming the satisfaction of the conditions in clause (A) above, (C) the

Administrative Agent shall have received, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, documents consistent with those delivered pursuant to Sections 4.01(b) and 4.01(f) as to the corporate power and authority of the applicable Borrowers to borrow hereunder after giving effect to such increase and related matters and (D) the Borrowers, each Incremental Revolving Lender and the Administrative Agent shall have executed and delivered an Incremental Facility Agreement to evidence the Revolving Commitment of such Incremental Revolving Lender under the applicable Tranche and/or its status as a Lender hereunder (which Incremental Facility Agreement shall in any event contain a representation by each such Incremental Revolving Lender that the requirements set forth in subclauses (x) and (y) of paragraph (d)(i)(C) above have been satisfied with respect to it).

SECTION 2.10. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Applicable Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender outstanding to such Borrower on the Revolving Maturity Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Incremental Term Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Incremental Term Loan of such Incremental Term Lender as provided in the applicable Incremental Facility Agreement and (iii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan outstanding to such Borrower on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the fifth Business Day after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing denominated in US Dollars is made, each Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding to such Borrower, if any, and may use all or a portion of the proceeds of such Revolving Borrowing to fund such repayment. The Borrowers will repay the principal amount of each Loan and the accrued interest thereon in the currency in which such Loan is denominated.

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

(c) The Agents shall maintain accounts in which they shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Agents hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

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

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it (including the interests and obligations of such Lender after giving effect to the CAM Exchange) be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, each applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver

to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to such payee and its registered assigns.

SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without any premium or penalty (but subject to Section 2.16) subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(b) In the event and on each occasion that the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures under any Tranche exceeds the sum of the Revolving Commitments under such Tranche, the Borrowers shall not later than the next Business Day prepay Revolving Borrowings under the applicable Tranche in an aggregate amount equal to such excess, and in the event that after such prepayment of Revolving Borrowings any such excess shall remain, the Borrowers shall deposit with the Administrative Agent cash in US Dollars in an amount equal to such excess as collateral for the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers in respect of Letters of Credit under such Tranche; provided that if such excess results from a change in currency exchange rates, such prepayment and deposit shall be required to be made not later than the fifth Business Day after the day on which the Administrative Agent shall have given Parent notice of such excess. Any cash so deposited (and any cash previously deposited pursuant to this paragraph) with the Administrative Agent shall be held in an account over which the Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control, including exclusive rights of withdrawal. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investment shall be in Permitted Investments and shall be made in the discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for the portion of LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed that is allocable to such Tranche and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the LC Exposure allocable to such Tranche at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of the Majority in Interest of Lenders under such Tranche), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. If the Borrowers have provided cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph to secure the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers in respect of Letters of Credit, then, so long as no Event of Default shall exist, such cash collateral shall be released to the Borrowers if so requested by Parent at any time if and to the extent that, after giving effect to such release, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Exposures under the applicable Tranche would not exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments under such Tranche. Prepayments made under this paragraph shall be without any premium or penalty (but shall be subject to Section 2.16).

(c) The applicable Borrower, or Parent on its behalf, shall notify the Applicable Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender~~) by telephone (confirmed by email or facsimile~~) of any prepayment under this Section (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, four Business

Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment; provided that in the case of any prepayment required to be made within one Business Day under paragraph (b) of this Section the applicable Borrower will give such notice as soon as practicable. Each such notice shall be made by Electronic Communication to the Applicable Agent of a written notice signed by the applicable Borrower, or Parent on its behalf (or, in the case of any Borrowing denominated in US Dollars, by telephone notification, confirmed promptly by Electronic Communication to the Administrative Agent of a written notice signed by the applicable Borrower, or Parent on its behalf). Each such telephonic and written notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that~~, if~~ a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination or reduction of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09.delivered by or on behalf of any Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the applicable Borrower, or Parent on its behalf (by notice to the Applicable Agent prior to the required time of the specified prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to any Borrowing (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the applicable Class of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Class, Type and in the same currency as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13.

SECTION 2.12. Fees. (a) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily unused amount of the Revolving Commitments of such Lender during the period from and including the First Amendment Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the last of such Revolving Commitments terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the first Business Day following the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments of any Class terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the ~~date hereof~~First Amendment Effective Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees, a Revolving Commitment of a Lender under any Tranche shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender under such Tranche (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose prior to the acquisition by such Lender of a participation therein pursuant to Section 2.05(c)).

(b) The Borrowers agree to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit,

which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements), during the period from and including the First Amendment Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitments terminate and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately agreed upon between the Borrowers and such Issuing Bank on the daily LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements), during the period from and including the First Amendment Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date the LC Commitment of such Issuing Bank is reduced to zero and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the First Amendment Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

~~(c)~~ The Borrowers agree to pay on the Effective Date to each Revolving Lender, as fee compensation for such Lender’s Revolving Commitments, an upfront fee at the rate heretofore communicated to the Revolving Lenders by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on the aggregate amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitments as of the Effective Date.

(c) ~~(d)~~ The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrowers (or any of them) and the Administrative Agent.

(d) ~~(e)~~ All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds in US Dollars, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Banks, in the case of fees payable to them) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees, and participation ~~fees and upfront~~ fees, to the Revolving Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

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

(b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest (i) in the case of any such Borrowing denominated in US Dollars ~~or Sterling~~, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate and (ii) in the case of any such Borrowing denominated in Sterling, at the LIBO Rate and (iii) in the case of any such Borrowing denominated in Euro, at the EURIBO Rate, in each case for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing, plus, in each case, the Applicable Rate.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section, (ii) in the case of any overdue interest on any Loan denominated in Sterling or Euro, 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (iii) in the case of any overdue interest on any Loan denominated in US Dollars or any other overdue amount, 2% per annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

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

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

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

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

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by a Majority in Interest of the Lenders of such Class that the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the LIBO Rate or the EURIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to Parent and the Lenders of such Class by telephone or Electronic Communication as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies Parent and the Lenders of such Class that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing of such Class to, or continuation of any Borrowing of such Class as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective, and, unless repaid, such Borrowing shall, if denominated in US Dollars, be made as an ABR Borrowing or, if denominated in an Alternative Currency, bear interest at such rate as the Administrative Agent shall determine adequately and fairly reflects the cost to the affected Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall, if denominated in US Dollars, be made as an ABR Borrowing or, if denominated in an Alternative Currency, bear interest at such rate as the Administrative Agent shall determine adequately and fairly reflects the cost to the affected Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.

SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

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

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

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Excluded Taxes and (C) Other Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any Loan), to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs or expenses incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has had or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) If the cost (including Taxes other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Excluded Taxes and (iii) Other Taxes) to any Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan to (or of maintaining its obligation to make any Loan), or the cost to any Lender or any Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Borrowing Subsidiary (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or issue any such Letter of Credit) is increased (or the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Lender or any Issuing Bank (or its applicable lending office) is reduced) by reason of the fact that such Borrowing Subsidiary is incorporated in, has its principal place of business in, or borrows from, a jurisdiction outside the United States of America, such Borrowing Subsidiary shall indemnify such Lender or such Issuing Bank from time to time for such increased cost incurred or reduction suffered.

(d) Without duplication of any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate, Parent shall pay to each Lender (i) so long as such Lender shall be required by a central banking or financial regulatory authority with regulatory authority over such Lender to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including funds or deposits obtained in the London or the European interbank market, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocable to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error), and (ii) so long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurocurrency Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan; provided that ~~the Company~~Parent shall have received the certificate referred to in paragraph (e) of this Section with respect to such additional interest or costs from such Lender at least 10 Business Days prior to such date (and, in the event such certificate shall have been delivered after such time, then such additional interest or costs shall be due and payable as set forth in paragraph (e) of this Section).

(e) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Section setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts have been determined, delivered to Parent shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

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

(g) If a Lender or an Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any amount as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower pursuant to this Section, it shall pay over such refund to such Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made by such Borrower under this Section with respect to the events giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Lender or such Issuing Bank and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that each Borrower, upon the request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such Lender or such Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require any Lender or any Issuing Bank to make available its accounting records (or any other information which it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked hereunder and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.19 or the CAM Exchange, then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a

Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the LIBO Rate or the EURIBO Rate, as the case may be, that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan) over (ii) the amount of interest 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 commencement of such period, for deposits in the applicable currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the ~~Eurocurrency market~~Relevant Interbank Market. The Borrowers shall also compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to any failure by a Borrower to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section delivered to Parent shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 20 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.17. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payments by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax (other than Excluded Taxes), then the sum payable by the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17(a)) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of any Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

(c) The Borrowers and the other Loan Parties shall indemnify each Recipient within 20 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes payable or paid by such Recipient, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Parent by a Lender or an Issuing Bank, or by any Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

(d) Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify each Agent, within 20 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Taxes (but, in the case of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, only to the extent that the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties have not already indemnified such Agent for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by such Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (other than any amounts for which such Agent has been reimbursed by the Borrowers or the other Loan Parties), whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. In addition, each Lender shall severally indemnify the applicable Borrower for any Taxes paid or payable by such Borrower (and not deducted or withheld from any payment otherwise due hereunder to such Lender) as a result of the failure of such Lender to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender to the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17(f) or 2.17(g). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the applicable Lender by an Agent or the applicable Borrower shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Nothing herein shall prevent any Lender from contesting the applicability of any Taxes that it believes to have been incorrectly or illegally imposed or asserted by any Governmental Authority; provided that no such contest shall suspend the obligation of any Lender to pay amounts due to the Agents or the applicable Borrower as provided in the first and second sentences of this paragraph.

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

(f) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which an applicable Borrower or any other applicable Loan Party is located, or under any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to such Borrower or such other Loan Party and the Applicable Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower, such other Loan Party or the Applicable Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower, such other Loan Party or the Applicable Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by an applicable Borrower, any other applicable Loan Party or any Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by such Borrower, such other Loan Party or such Agent as will enable such Borrower, such other Loan Party or such Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) by such Borrower, such other Loan Party or such Agent or any information reporting requirements by such Borrower, such other Loan Party or such Agent. In the case of an

applicable Borrower or any other applicable Loan Party that, in each case, is a US Person or resident in the United Kingdom for United Kingdom tax purposes, (A) upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or such other Loan Party, or of any Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.17(f) and (B) if any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.17(f) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify such Borrower or such other Loan Party and such Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an applicable Borrower or any other applicable Loan Party that, in each case, is not a US Person or resident in the United Kingdom for United Kingdom tax purposes, the applicable Lender will not be subject to the requirements of this paragraph (f)(i) unless it has received written notice from such Borrower or such other Loan Party advising it of the availability of an exemption or reduction of withholding Tax under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Borrower or such other Loan Party is located and containing all applicable documentation (together, if requested by such Lender, with a certified English translation thereof) required to be completed by such Lender in order to receive any such exemption or reduction, and such Lender is reasonably satisfied that it is legally able to provide such documentation to such Borrower or such other Loan Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the first two sentences of this paragraph (f)(i), the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(f)(ii)(A)-(E) and 2.17(f)(iii)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) In furtherance of, and subject to the limitation set forth in, paragraph (f)(i) above, if an applicable Borrower or other applicable Loan Party is a US Person, any Lender (or if such Lender is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for US Federal income Tax purposes, its sole owner) with respect to such Borrower or other Loan Party shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to such Borrower (or such other Loan Party) and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by such Borrower (or such other Loan Party) and the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower (or such other Loan Party) or the Administrative Agent), duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) IRS Form W-9 certifying exemption from US Federal backup withholding Tax;

(B) (1) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, US Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, US Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(D) both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E and (2) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit X-0, X-0, X-0 or H-4 (as applicable) to the effect that such Lender (or if such Lender is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for US Federal income Tax purposes, its sole owner) is not (w) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (x) a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code (y) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (z) conducting a trade or business in the United States of America with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected;

(E) (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) and (F) of this paragraph (f)(ii) that would be required of each beneficial owner or partner if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; provided that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Lender may provide a certificate described in Section 2.17(f)(ii)(D) on behalf of such partners; or

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

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

(g) (i) Subject to paragraph (g)(ii) below, each Lender and each UK Loan Party that makes a payment to such Lender shall cooperate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for such UK Loan Party to obtain authorization to make such payment without withholding or deduction for Taxes imposed under the laws of the United Kingdom.

(ii) (A) In the event any UK Loan Party shall become a party hereto, a Lender that is a party hereto as of the date such UK Loan Party becomes a party hereto and that (x) holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and (y) wishes such scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall provide its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence to such UK Loan Party and the London Agent promptly thereafter; and

(B) in the event any UK Loan Party shall become a party hereto, a Lender that becomes a Lender hereunder after the date such UK Loan Party becomes a party hereto and that (x) holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and (y) wishes such scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall provide its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence to such UK Loan Party and the London Agent promptly thereafter; and

(C) upon satisfying the requirements of either clause (A) or (B) above, such Lender shall have satisfied its obligation under paragraph (g)(i) above.

(iii) If a Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (g)(ii) above, the UK Loan Parties shall make a Borrower DTTP filing with respect to such Lender, and shall promptly provide such Lender with a copy of such filing; provided that if:

(A) any UK Loan Party making a payment to such Lender has not made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of such Lender; or

(B) Any UK Loan Party making a payment to such Lender has made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of such Lender but:

(1) such Borrower DTTP Filing has been rejected by HMRC; or

(2) HMRC has not given such UK Loan Party authority to make payments to such Lender without a deduction for tax within 60 days of the date of such Borrower DTTP Filing;

and in each case, such UK Loan Party has notified that Lender in writing of the occurrence of any event specified in clause (1) or (2) above, then such Lender and such UK Loan Party shall cooperate in completing any additional procedural formalities necessary for such UK Loan Party to obtain authorization to make that payment without withholding or deduction for Taxes imposed under the laws of the United Kingdom.

(iv) If a Lender has not confirmed its scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (g)(ii) above, no UK Loan Party shall make a Borrower DTTP Filing or file any other form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment(s) or its participation in any Loan unless the Lender otherwise agrees.

(v) Each UK Loan Party shall, promptly on making a Borrower DTTP Filing, deliver a copy of such Borrower DTTP Filing to the London Agent for delivery to the relevant Lender.

(vi) Each Lender shall notify Parent and the London Agent if it determines in its sole discretion that it is ceases to be entitled to claim the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United Kingdom is a party with respect to payments made by any UK Loan Party hereunder.

(h) If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund or credit of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Loan Party or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund or credit to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Recipient and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Loan Party, upon the request of such Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Recipient in the event such Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person.

(i) Issuing Banks. For purposes of Sections 2.17(d), 2.17(f) and 2.17(g), the term “Lender” shall be deemed to include each Issuing Bank.

SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by them hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, Local Time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without any rights to set-off, recoupment or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Applicable 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 Applicable Agent to the applicable account specified by it from time to time to Parent for such purpose, except payments to be made

directly to an Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein shall be so made and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 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 Applicable Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. Except as otherwise provided herein, (i) all payments of principal, interest or reimbursement obligations in respect of any Loan or Letter of Credit shall be made in the currency of such Loan or Letter of Credit and (ii) all other payments under each Loan Document (including all fees) shall be made in US Dollars. Any payment required to be made by any Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if such Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by such Agent to make such payment.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Applicable Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements 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 or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, as in effect from time to time) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any assignee or Participant, other than to Parent or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). It is acknowledged and agreed that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph reflect an agreement entered into solely among the Lenders

(and not any Loan Party) and no consent of any Loan Party shall be required with respect to any action taken by the Lenders pursuant to such provisions. Each Borrower 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 each Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower, as the case may be, in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Applicable Agent for the account of the Lenders or an Issuing Bank hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Applicable Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Applicable Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Applicable Agent, at (i) if such amount is denominated in US Dollars, the greater of the New York Fed Bank Rate and a rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, and (ii) if such amount is denominated in an Alternative Currency, a rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder to or for the account of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, then each Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by such Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations in respect of such payment until all such unsatisfied obligations have been discharged or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to Sections 2.05(c), 2.06(d), 2.06(e), 2.07(b), 2.18(d) and 9.03(c), in each case in such order as shall be determined by such Agent in its discretion.

(f) In the event that any financial statements delivered under Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b), or any certificate delivered under Section 5.01(c), shall prove to have been materially inaccurate, and such inaccuracy shall have resulted in the payment of any interest or fees at rates lower than those that were in fact applicable for any period (based on the actual Leverage Ratio), then, if such inaccuracy is discovered prior to the termination of the Commitments and the repayment in full of the principal of all Loans and the reduction of the LC Exposure to zero, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for distribution to each Lender, the accrued interest or fees that should have been paid to such Lender but were not paid as a result of such misstatement.

SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different

lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign and delegate 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 (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation.

(iii) if any Swingline Exposure or any LC Exposure exists at the time such Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then:

(A) the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender (other than (1) any portion of such Swingline Exposure (x) referred to in clause (b) of the definition of such term or (y) with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Section 2.05(c) and (2) any portion of such LC Exposure attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Sections 2.06(d) and 2.06(e)) shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Combined Tranche Percentages, but only to the extent that, after giving effect to such reallocation, the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ US Tranche Revolving Exposures would not exceed the Aggregate US Tranche Revolving Commitment and the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ European Tranche Revolving Exposures would not exceed the Aggregate European Tranche Revolving Commitment;

(B) if the reallocation described in clause (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (1) first, prepay the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure (other than any portion thereof referred to in the parenthetical in such clause (A)) that has not been reallocated and (B) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Banks the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (other than any portion thereof referred to in the parenthetical in such clause (A)) that has not been reallocated in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.06(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(C) if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (B) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay participation fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure for so long as such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(D) if any portion of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (A) above, then the fees payable to the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.12(a) and 2.12(b) shall be adjusted to give effect to such reallocation; and

(E) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all participation fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks (and allocated among them ratably based on the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Bank) until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(iv) so long as such Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, unless, in each case, it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Swingline Exposure (other than the portion of such Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the definition of such term) or LC Exposure, as applicable, will be fully covered by the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral provided by the Borrower in accordance with this Section, and participating interests in any such funded Swingline Loan or in any such issued, amended, renewed or extended Letter of Credit will be allocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.20(a)(iii)(A) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

(b) In the event the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, each Issuing Bank and Parent shall have agreed that a Revolving Lender that is a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to become a Defaulting Lender, then (i) such Lender shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes hereof, (ii) the obligations of the Revolving Lenders to purchase participations in Swingline Loans under Section 2.05(c) and the participations of the Lenders in Letters of Credit under Section 2.06(d) shall be readjusted to be determined on the basis of the Lenders’ Combined Tranche Percentages and (iii) such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans under the applicable Tranche of the other Revolving Lenders under such Tranche as the Administrative Agent shall determine to be necessary in order for the Revolving Loans to be held by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their applicable Tranche Percentages.

(c) No Commitment of any Revolving Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section, performance by the Borrowers of their obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified, as a result of the operation of this Section. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrowers, the Agents, the Swingline Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Non-Defaulting Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender (and, for the avoidance of doubt, each Non-Defaulting Lender shall have a claim against any Defaulting Lender for any losses it may suffer as a result of the operation of this Section).

SECTION 2.21. Incremental Term Loans. (a) Parent may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, request the establishment of Incremental Term Commitments, provided that the aggregate amount of Incremental Term Commitments established on any date shall not exceed the Incremental Amount on such date.

for the terms referred to above and subject to paragraph (c) of this Section, to the extent the terms of any Incremental Term Loans (other than interest rates (whether fixed or floating), interest margins, benchmark rate floors, upfront fees, original issue discounts and prepayment terms (including “no call” terms and other restrictions thereon) and premiums) are not consistent with those of the Revolving Loans, such differences shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Any Incremental Term Commitments established pursuant to an Incremental Facility Agreement that have identical terms and conditions, and any Incremental Term Loans made thereunder, shall be designated as a separate series (each a “Series”) of Incremental Term Commitments and Incremental Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.

(c) The Incremental Term Commitments of any Series shall be effected pursuant to an Incremental Facility Agreement executed and delivered by Parent, each Incremental Term Lender providing such Incremental Term Commitments and the Administrative Agent (which Incremental Facility Agreement shall in any event to contain a representation by each such Incremental Term Lender that the requirements set forth in the proviso of the last sentence of paragraph (a) above have been satisfied with respect to it); provided that no Incremental Term Commitments shall become effective unless (i) on the date of the effectiveness thereof, the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02(a) and 4.02(b) shall be satisfied (without giving effect to the parenthetical in Section 4.02(a), but, in each case, deeming all references therein to the date, time or effect of a Borrowing (or an issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit) to refer to the date, time and effect of effectiveness of such Incremental Term Commitments and the making of Incremental Term Loans thereunder and giving effect thereto and the use of proceeds thereof on a pro forma basis), provided that, in the case of Incremental Term Commitments established for the primary purpose of financing, in whole or in part, any Limited Conditionality Acquisition (such Incremental Term Commitments, and Incremental Term Loans thereunder, being collectively referred to as “Limited Conditionality Acquisition Incremental Term Loans”), the condition set forth in this clause (i) may be waived or modified in a manner determined by Parent and the Incremental Term Lenders providing such Incremental Term Commitments, as set forth in the applicable Incremental Facility Agreement, provided further that, in any event, (A) on the date the applicable Limited Conditionality Acquisition Agreement becomes effective, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would have resulted therefrom, (B) on the date of effectiveness of such Incremental Term Commitments or the making of Incremental Term Loans thereunder, no Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(b) 7.01(h) or 7.01(i) shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom after giving effect thereto and the use of proceeds thereof on a pro forma basis and (C) on the date of effectiveness of such Incremental Term Commitments or the making of Incremental Term Loans thereunder, customary “SunGard” representations and warranties (with such representations and warranties to be reasonably determined by the applicable Incremental Term Lenders and the Administrative Agent) shall be true and correct in all material respects (in all respects if qualified by materiality) immediately prior to, and immediately after giving effect to, the effectiveness of such Incremental Term Commitments, the making of the Incremental Term Loans thereunder and the use of proceeds thereof, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate dated as of such date and executed by a Financial Officer of Parent setting forth, in reasonable detail, the calculation of the Incremental Amount as of such date and confirming the satisfaction of the condition in clause (A) above and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received documents

SECTION 7.02. CAM Exchange. (a) On the CAM Exchange Date, (i) the Commitments shall automatically and without further act be terminated as provided in Section 7.01 and (ii) the Revolving Lenders shall automatically and without further act be deemed to have exchanged interests in the Designated Obligations such that, in lieu of the interests of each Revolving Lender in the particular Designated Obligations that it shall own as of such date and prior to the CAM Exchange, such Revolving Lender shall own an interest equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage in all the Designated Obligations. Each Revolving Lender and each Person acquiring a participation from any Revolving Lender as contemplated by Section 9.04 hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange. Each Revolving Lender agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent all instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests and obligations of the Revolving Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange; provided that the failure of any Revolving Lender to execute and delivery any such instrument or document shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the CAM Exchange. It is acknowledged and agreed that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph reflect an agreement entered into solely among the Revolving Lenders (and not any Loan Party) and no consent of any Loan Party shall be required with respect to any action taken by the Revolving Lenders pursuant to such provisions.

(b) As a result of the CAM Exchange, on and after the CAM Exchange Date, (i) each payment received by an Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Designated Obligations shall be distributed to the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages (to be redetermined as of each such date of payment or distribution to the extent required by paragraph (c) below), but giving effect to assignments after the CAM Exchange Date, it being understood that nothing herein shall be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all an assigning Revolving Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of a single Class of Commitments or Loans, and (ii) clause (d) of the

106

definition of Excluded Taxes shall not apply to any Taxes required to be withheld or deducted by an applicable withholding agent from or in respect of payments hereunder to any Recipient that exceed the Taxes such withholding agent would have been required to withhold or deduct from or in respect of payments to such Recipient had such CAM Exchange not occurred (but only if such Recipient cannot comply with Section 2.17(f) or 2.17(g) under applicable law).

(c) In the event that, on or after the CAM Exchange Date, the aggregate amount of the Designated Obligations shall change as a result of the making of an LC Disbursement by an Issuing Bank that is not reimbursed by a Borrower, then (i) each Revolving Lender (determined as of the CAM Exchange Date but without giving effect to the CAM Exchange), shall, in accordance with Sections 2.06(d) and 2.06(e), promptly pay to such Issuing Bank an amount determined in accordance with such Sections on the basis of such Revolving Lender’s Combined Tranche Percentage (determined as of the CAM Exchange Date but without giving effect to the CAM Exchange) of the amount due from the applicable Borrower in respect of such LC Disbursement, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall redetermine the CAM Percentages after giving effect to such LC Disbursement and the funding of participations therein by the Revolving Lenders and (iii) in the event distributions shall have been made in accordance with clause (i) of paragraph (b) above, the Revolving Lenders shall make such payments to one another as shall be necessary in order that the amounts received by them shall be equal to the amounts they would have received had each LC Disbursement been outstanding immediately prior to the CAM Exchange. Each such redetermination shall be binding on each of the Borrowers and the Revolving Lenders and their successors and assigns and shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

ARTICLE VIII

The Agents

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the entities named as the Administrative Agent and the London Agent in the heading of this Agreement, and their successors in such capacities, to serve as the Administrative Agent and the London Agent, respectively, under the Loan Documents and authorizes the Agents to take such actions and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agents by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

Any Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender or an Issuing Bank as any other Lender or Issuing Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Parent or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks.

The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and their duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Agents shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a

107

Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Agents is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties), (b) the Agents shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or to exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Agents are required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the applicable Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02); provided that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion, could expose such Agent to liability or be contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Agents shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Parent or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof that is communicated to or obtained by them or any of their Affiliates in any capacity. The Agents shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by them with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the applicable Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed for purposes of this Article VIII unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment). Each Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of default”) is given to such Agent by Parent or a Lender, and no Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, including any representation by any Incremental Lender in any Incremental Facility Agreement (it being understood and agreed that each Agent may rely, and shall incur no liability for relying, upon such representation), (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 or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent, or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to such Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Agents shall not have any liability arising from any confirmation of any Revolving Credit Exposure or the component amounts thereof, any determination of the Exchange Rate, the LC Exchange Rate or the US Dollar Equivalent or any determination of any rate that reflects the costs to any Lenders of making or maintaining any Loans as contemplated by Section 2.14.

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person (including, if applicable, a Financial Officer). Each Agent also may rely, and shall

108

not incur any liability for relying, upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person (including, if applicable, a Financial Officer), and may act upon any such statement prior to receipt of written confirmation thereof. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, amendment, extension or renewal of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance to the making of such Loan or the issuance, amendment, extension or renewal of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Each Agent may perform any of and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent or the London Agent, as applicable. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that such Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.

Subject to the terms of this paragraph, each Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and Parent. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders (in the case of a resignation of the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent (in the case of a resignation by the London Agent) shall have the right, in consultation with Parent, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. If any Agent shall be a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (e) of the definition of such term, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to Parent and such Agent remove such Agent in its capacity as such and, in consultation with Parent, appoint a successor. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent, as the case may be, and such retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event (a) no successor Agent to a retiring Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring

109

Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and Parent or (b) no successor to a removed Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment by the day that is 30 days following of the issuance of a notice of removal, the removal shall become effective on such 30th day, and on the date of effectiveness of such resignation or removal, as the case may be, (i) the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent; provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Documents to the retiring or removed Agent for the account of any Person other than such Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the retiring or removed Agent shall also directly be given or made to the other Agent, and each Lender and each Issuing bank. After an Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Agent.

In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, each Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any LC Disbursement shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether such Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Exposure and all other obligations under the Loan Documents that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and such Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Bank to make such payments to such Agent and, in the event that such Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, to pay to such Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 9.03). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize any Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Bank, or to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding.

110

Each Lender and Issuing Bank acknowledges and agrees that the extensions of credit made hereunder are commercial loans and letters of credit and not investments in a business enterprise or securities. Each Lender and Issuing Bank further represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and letters of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that it has, independently and without reliance upon either Agent, any Arranger~~, any Manager~~ or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon either Agent, any Arranger~~, any Manager~~ or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Each Lender and Issuing Bank, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and, in the case of any Lender, funding its Loans on the Original Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption, an Incremental Facility Agreement or an Issuing Bank Agreement pursuant to which it shall become a Lender or an Issuing Bank, as the case may be, hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Original Effective Date.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Arranger, ~~Manager,~~ Syndication Agent or Documentation Agent shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except in its capacity, as applicable, as a Lender or an Issuing Bank), but all such Persons shall have the benefit of the expense reimbursement and indemnities to the extent provided for hereunder.

The Platform~~an Electronic System. Any Electronic System used by the Agents is provided “as is” and “as available”. None of the Agents or any of their Related Parties warrants, or shall be deemed to warrant, the adequacy of ~~the Platform~~any Electronic System and the Agents expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made, or shall be deemed to be made, by the Agents or any of their Related Parties in connection with the Communications or ~~the Platform~~any Electronic System.

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

(b) Except as provided in Sections 2.09(d), 2.21 and ~~9.12,~~9.12 and the definition of the term LC Commitment, neither any Loan Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Parent and the Required Lenders, or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are party thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that (i) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by Parent and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency so long as, in each case, the Lenders shall have received at least 10 Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within 10 Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment and (ii) no such agreement shall (A) increase the

113

Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (B) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than as a result of any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable to any Loan or LC Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.13(c) or any change in the definition, or in any components thereof, of the term “Leverage Ratio”), or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (C) postpone the scheduled maturity date of any Loan, or the date of any scheduled amortization installment of the principal amount of any Incremental Term Loan as set forth in the applicable Incremental Facility Agreement, or the required date of reimbursement of any LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, or waive, amend or modify Section 7.01(a), without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (D) change Section 2.18(b) or 2.18(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender, (E) change any of the provisions of this Section or the percentage set forth in the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be), provided that, as set forth in Section 2.21 or with the consent of the Required Lenders, the provisions of this Section and the definition of the term “Required Lenders” may be amended to include references to any new class of loans or commitments created under this Agreement (or to lenders extending such loans or commitments) on substantially the same basis as the corresponding references relating to the existing Classes of Loans, Commitments or Lenders, (F) release Guarantees representing all or substantially all the value of the Guarantees under the Guarantee Agreement, or limit the liability of Parent or any Subsidiary Loan Parties in respect of such Guarantees, without the written consent of each Lender, (G) change any provision of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments of Revolving Lenders of any Class differently from Revolving Lenders of any other Class, without the written consent of Lenders representing a Majority in Interest of the adversely affected Class of Revolving Loans, (H) change any provision of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments of Lenders of any Class differently from Lenders of any other Class, without the written consent of Lenders representing a Majority in Interest of each adversely affected Class (for purposes of this clause (H), all the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to be Lenders of the same Class) or (I) waive any condition set forth in Section 4.02 or 4.03 without the written consent of the Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders and, in the case of any such waiver affecting one Class of Revolving Lenders but not the other, a Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders of such Class (it being understood and agreed that any amendment or waiver of, or any consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement (other than any waiver expressly relating to Section 4.02 or 4.03) or any other Loan Document, including any amendment of any affirmative or negative covenant set forth herein or in any other Loan Document or any waiver of a Default or an Event of Default, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any condition set forth in Section 4.02 or 4.03); provided further that (1) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or obligations of either Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of such Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (2) any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this

114

Agreement of the Lenders of one or more Classes (but not the Lenders of any other Class) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Parent and the requisite percentage in interest of Lenders under each affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no consent with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be required of any Defaulting Lender, except with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification referred to in clause (A), (B) or (C) of clause (ii) of the first proviso of this paragraph and then only in the event such Defaulting Lender shall be affected by such amendment, waiver or other modification, and (ii) any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by Parent, the Administrative Agent (and, if their rights or obligations are affected thereby, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender) and the Lenders that will remain parties hereto after giving effect to such amendment if (x) by the terms of such agreement the Commitment of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment, (y) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement and (z) after giving effect to such amendment and all contemporaneous repayments of Revolving Loans and reductions of Revolving Commitments, the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures under each Tranche shall not exceed the total Commitments under such Tranche. Any amendment or modification effected in accordance with this paragraph will be binding on each Borrowing Subsidiary whether or not such Borrowing Subsidiary shall have consented thereto.

(c) The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the written concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, waivers or other modifications on behalf of such Lender. Any amendment, waiver or other modification effected in accordance with this Section 9.02 shall be binding upon each Person that is at the time thereof a Lender and each Person that subsequently becomes a Lender.

SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents, the Arrangers~~, the Managers~~ and their Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one firm of counsel for the Agents and, if deemed reasonably necessary by the Agents, one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, in connection with the arrangement and the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents, any Arranger, ~~any Manager,~~ any Syndication Agent, any Documentation Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Agents, any Arranger, ~~any Manager,~~ any Issuing Bank, any Syndication Agent, any Documentation Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

115

(b) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Agents (and any sub-agent thereof), the Arrangers, ~~the Managers,~~ each Syndication Agent, each Documentation Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”), against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with or as a result of (i) the arrangement and the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials at, under, on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by Parent or any of the Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to Parent or any of the Subsidiaries, 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 and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by Parent or any Affiliate thereof; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes, other than Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred in connection with a non-Tax claim.

(c) To the extent that the Borrowers fail to pay any amount required to be paid by them to either Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent (or such sub-agent), such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for either Agent (or any such sub-agent), any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in connection with such capacity; provided further that, with respect to such unpaid amounts owed to any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such, or to any Related Party of any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender acting in connection with such capacity, only the Revolving Lenders shall be required to pay such unpaid amounts. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures, unused Revolving Commitments and, except for

116

purposes of the immediately preceding proviso, the outstanding Incremental Term Loans and unused Incremental Term Commitments, in each case at the time (or most recently outstanding and in effect); provided that the Swingline Exposure of any Lender that is the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to exclude that portion of its Swingline Exposure that exceeds its Combined Tranche Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans, and the unused Revolving Commitment of such Lender shall be determined without regard to any such excess amount.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrowers shall not assert, or permit any of their Affiliates or Related Parties to assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee (i) for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet and Electronic Systems) or (ii) 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, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) except as expressly permitted under Section 6.04(a), neither Parent nor any Borrowing Subsidiary may 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 any of them without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section), the Arrangers, ~~the Managers,~~ the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the sub-agents of the Agents and the Related Parties of any of the Agents, the Arrangers, ~~the Managers,~~ the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(A) Parent; provided that no consent of Parent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; provided further that

117

Parent shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received written notice thereof;

(B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for (1) any assignment in respect of the US Tranche to a US Tranche Revolving Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender, (2) any assignment in respect of a European Tranche to a European Tranche Revolving Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender or (3) any assignment of any Incremental Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

(C) each Issuing Bank, in the case of any assignment of all or a portion of a Revolving Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its LC Exposure; and

(D) the Swingline Lender, in the case of any assignment of all or a portion of a Revolving Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its Swingline Exposure.

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than US$5,000,000 unless each of Parent and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents; provided that (x) no such consent of Parent shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) Parent shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received written notice thereof;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that this clause (B) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption (or an agreement incorporating by reference a form of Assignment and Assumption posted on the Electronic System), together with a processing and recordation fee of US$3,500; and

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

118

In addition, in connection with each assignment, the assignee shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Applicable Agent all applicable Tax forms required to be delivered by it under Sections 2.17(f) and 2.17(g), including, for the avoidance of doubt, that, if such assignee wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement, such assignee shall provide its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence on the date on which it becomes a Lender (if there shall then be a UK Loan Party).

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, any Issuing Bank and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption (or an agreement incorporating by reference a form of Assignment and Assumption posted on the Electronic System) executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to accept such Assignment and Assumption or so record the information contained therein if the Administrative Agent reasonably believes that such Assignment and Assumption lacks

119

any written consent required by this Section or is otherwise not in proper form, it being acknowledged that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation (and shall incur no liability) with respect to obtaining (or confirming the receipt) of any such written consent or with respect to the form of (or any defect in) such Assignment and Assumption, any such duty and obligation being solely with the assigning Lender and assignee. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph, and following such recording, unless otherwise determined by the Administrative Agent (such determination to be made in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, which determination may be conditioned on the consent of the assigning Lender and the assignee), shall be effective notwithstanding any defect in the Assignment and Assumption relating thereto. Each assigning Lender and the assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the Administrative Agent that all written consents required by this Section with respect thereto (other than the consent of the Administrative Agent) have been obtained and that such Assignment and Assumption is otherwise duly completed and in proper form, and each assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the assigning Lender and the Administrative Agent that such assignee is an Eligible Assignee.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment of any Class and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; 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 clauses (A) through (F) of clause (ii) of the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that directly affects such Participant and requires the approval of all the Lenders or all the affected Lenders (or all the Lenders or all the affected Lenders of a Class). Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Sections 2.17(f) and 2.17(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender and the information and documentation required under Section 2.17(g) will be delivered to Parent and the London Agent)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.19 as though it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.19 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted

120

by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made (A) pursuant to Section 2.18(c) or (B) with Parent’s prior written consent.

(iii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, no Agent (in its capacity as an Agent) shall have any responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank having jurisdiction over it, 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.

SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that either Agent, any Arranger, any Issuing Bank or any Lender or any Affiliate or Related Party of any of the foregoing, may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any Loan Document is executed and delivered or any credit is extended thereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and

121

so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in the event that, in connection with the refinancing or repayment in full of the credit facilities provided for herein, an Issuing Bank shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a written consent to the release of the Revolving Lenders from their obligations hereunder with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (whether as a result of the obligations of any Borrower (and any other account party) in respect of such Letter of Credit having been collateralized in full by a deposit of cash with such Issuing Bank, or being supported by a letter of credit that names such Issuing Bank as the beneficiary thereunder, or otherwise), then from and after such time such Letter of Credit shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including for purposes of determining whether the Borrowers are required to comply with Articles V and VI hereof, but excluding Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and any expense reimbursement or indemnity provisions set forth in any other Loan Document), and the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have no participations in such Letter of Credit, and no obligations with respect thereto, under Section 2.06(d) or 2.06(e). The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17, 2.18(b), 2.18(c), 9.03, 9.09 and 9.10 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Issuing Banks. 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 and the other Loan Documents 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, including the commitments of the Lenders and, if applicable, their Affiliates under the Commitment Letter and any commitment advices submitted by them (but do not supersede any other provisions of the Commitment Letter or any fee letter referred to therein (or any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank) that do not by the terms of such documents terminate upon the effectiveness of this Agreement). Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. Each financial institution that shall be party to an Issuing Bank Agreement executed by Parent and the Administrative Agent shall be a party to and an Issuing Bank under this Agreement, and shall have all the rights and duties of an Issuing Bank hereunder and under its Issuing Bank Agreement. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into Issuing Bank Agreements.

SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to

122

the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof, and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties hereto shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and Issuing Bank, and each Affiliate of any of the foregoing, is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) or other amounts at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or Issuing Bank, or by such an Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any of and all the obligations then due of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender or Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees to notify Parent and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender and Issuing Bank, and each Affiliate of any of the foregoing, under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, Issuing Bank or Affiliate may have.

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 and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined exclusively in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) each of the parties hereto shall retain the right to bring any such action or proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction in connection with the enforcement of any judgment and (ii) nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Subsidiary Loan Party that is a Foreign Subsidiary or any of its properties in the courts of the jurisdiction of its organization or domicile. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(c) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to

123

this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

(e) To the extent that any Borrowing Subsidiary has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set-off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its property, such Borrowing Subsidiary hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in respect of its Obligations under its Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(f) Each Borrowing Subsidiary hereby agrees that the waivers set forth in this Section shall have the fullest extent permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States of America and are intended to be irrevocable and not subject to withdrawal for purposes of such Act.

(g) Each Borrowing Subsidiary hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers Parent, and Parent hereby accepts such appointment, as its designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf, and in respect of its property, service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents that may be served in any such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and any other Loan Document. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to any Borrowing Subsidiary in care of Parent at Parent’s address used for purposes of giving notice under Section 9.01, and each Borrowing Subsidiary hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Parent to accept such service on its behalf.

SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR 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.

Each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ Related Parties, including accountants, legal counsel and other agents and 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 or shall otherwise be subject to an obligation of confidentiality), (b) to the extent requested by any Governmental Authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant (or its advisors) in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant (or its advisors) in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, other than, in the case of any such disclosure to a Participant or a prospective Participant, any such Participant or prospective Participant that shall have been identified, or is actually known to the disclosing Person to be an Affiliate of any Person identified, on Schedule 9.12, as such Schedule may be supplemented by Parent from time to time by a writing delivered to the Administrative Agent (it being understood and agreed (x) that Parent (in its reasonable discretion) may only include an additional Person on Schedule 9.12 if such Person is or is an Affiliate of any Person that engages in a business in competition with Parent and/or any of the Subsidiaries, (y) that no Lender shall have any obligation to determine whether any Participant, or any prospective Participant, that is not identified on Schedule 9.12 is an Affiliate of any Person identified on such Schedule and (z) the Administrative Agent shall promptly furnish to Lenders a copy of any such supplement received by it) or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations other than any such counterparty or prospective counterparty that shall have been identified, or is actually known to the disclosing Person to be an Affiliate of any Person identified, on Schedule 9.12, as such Schedule may be supplemented by Parent from time to time by a writing delivered to the Administrative Agent (it being understood and agreed (x) that Parent (in its reasonable discretion) may only include an additional Person on Schedule 9.12 if such Person is or is an Affiliate of any Person that engages in a business in competition with Parent and/or any of the Subsidiaries, (y) that no Lender shall have any obligation to determine whether any counterparty, or any prospective counterparty, that is not identified on Schedule 9.12 is an Affiliate of any Person identified on such Schedule and (z) the Administrative Agent shall promptly furnish to Lenders a copy of any such supplement received by it), (g) with the consent of Parent, (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to either Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than any Borrower, (i) to any credit insurance providers or, (j) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating Parent or the Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided for herein or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the credit facilities provided for herein or (k) to

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 which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan 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 cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the ~~Federal Funds Effective~~New York Fed Bank Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 9.14. Release of Guarantees. (a) If Parent shall request the release of the Guarantee of any Subsidiary Loan Party (i) upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, as in effect from time to time) as a result of which transaction such Subsidiary Loan Party (A) ceases to be a Subsidiary or (B) becomes a Partial Transfer Subsidiary (but, in the case of this clause (B), only if such Subsidiary Loan Party is not a Guarantor of any other Material Indebtedness of Parent or another Subsidiary) or (ii) upon any Subsidiary Loan Party otherwise ceasing to be a Designated Subsidiary (including because such Subsidiary Loan Party becomes a Specified Foreign Subsidiary) and, in each case, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer of Parent, in each case of clause (i) above, to the effect that such transaction and, if applicable, the application of the proceeds thereof will comply with the terms of this Agreement (and, in the event clause (B) is applicable, that the condition set forth in the parenthetical in such clause (B) is satisfied) or, in the case of clause (ii) above, setting forth details with respect thereto, the Administrative Agent, if satisfied that the applicable certificate is correct, shall execute and deliver to Parent, at Parent’s expense, all documents that Parent shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release.

(c) Any execution and delivery of documents by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to, or representation or warranty by, the Administrative Agent.

(a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b) The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss.

Parent and each Borrowing Subsidiary, on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, acknowledges that each Agent,

127

each Arranger, ~~each Manager,~~ each Lender and Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates may have economic interests that conflict with those of Parent, the Subsidiaries, their equityholders and/or their Affiliates. The Agents, the Arrangers, ~~the Managers,~~ the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their Affiliates may be engaged, for their own accounts or the accounts of customers, in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Parent, the Borrowing Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, and none of the Agents, the Arrangers, ~~the Managers,~~ the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to Parent, any Borrowing Subsidiary or any of their Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Parent and each Borrowing Subsidiary, on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, hereby waives and releases any claims that it or any of its Affiliates may have against the Agents, the Arrangers, ~~the Managers,~~ the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any lending transaction contemplated hereby.

(b) All such information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by Parent, any Borrowing Subsidiary or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information concerning Parent, the Subsidiaries and their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender and Issuing Bank represents to Parent, the Borrowing Subsidiaries and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its Administrative Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal, state and foreign securities laws.

128

SECTION 9.19. Notices under Existing Credit Agreement. Each Lender that is also a lender under the Existing Credit Agreement hereby consents and agrees that no prior notice shall be required under the Existing Credit Agreement with respect to termination of commitments or prepayment of loans under the Existing Credit Agreement; provided that notice thereof is given on the Effective Date.Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Solely to the extent an EEA Financial Institution is a party to this Agreement and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among or between the parties hereto, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank that is an EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
