In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to Section 2.06(n), any Letter of Credit hereunder for the account of a U.S. Borrower may be for the benefit of a Restricted Subsidiary of such Borrower whether or not a Borrower. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Issuing Bank shall have an obligation hereunder to issue, and shall not issue, any Letter of Credit (i) the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (A) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any Sanctions or (B) in any manner that would result in a violation of any applicable Sanctions by any party to this Agreement, (ii) if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law relating 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 shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it, or (iii) if the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in the implementation thereof, and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed not to be in effect on the Effective Date for purposes of clause (ii) above, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented; provided, further, that there shall not be more than a total of five (5) Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at any time. The Borrower Representative shall be responsible for preparing or approving the final text of each Letter of Credit as issued by Issuing Bank, irrespective of any assistance Issuing Bank may provide such as drafting or recommending text or by Issuing Bank’s use or refusal to use text submitted by the Borrower Representative. The U.S. Borrowers are solely responsible for the suitability of each Letter of Credit.

(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 Borrower Representative shall deliver by hand or electronic transmission (or transmit through Electronic System, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Administrative Agent) to 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 (together with a copy of the agreed form Letter of Credit), or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, specifying the Borrower(s) or Restricted Subsidiary for whose account such Letter of Credit is to be issued, 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 will be denominated (which shall be Dollars), the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. By submitting a request to the Administrative Agent for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have requested that the applicable Issuing Bank issue the requested Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent's records of the content of any such request will be conclusive. In addition, as a condition to any such Letter of Credit issuance, the Borrower Representative shall have entered into a continuing agreement (or other letter of credit agreement) for the issuance of letters of credit and/or shall submit a letter of credit application in each case, as required by the applicable Issuing Bank and using such bank’s standard form (each, a “Letter of Credit Agreement”). A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrowers shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the total LC Exposure shall not exceed $5,000,000 and (ii) the Revolving Exposure Limitations shall be complied with.

Any Letter of Credit may provide by its terms that it may be automatically extended for additional successive one year periods on terms reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank.

In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay, in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the U.S. Borrowers on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the U.S. Borrowers for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default, reduction or termination of the Commitments 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 Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the U.S. Borrowers shall, following notice of such LC Disbursement to the Borrower Representative, reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent, in the currency of the Letter of Credit to which such LC Disbursement relates, an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower Representative shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower Representative prior to such time on such date, then not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower Representative receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the Business Day that the Borrower Representative receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that the U.S. Borrowers may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with a Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the U.S. Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Borrowing. If the U.S. Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each applicable Revolving Lender of the Dollar Equivalent of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the applicable U.S. Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each applicable Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the applicable U.S. 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), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the applicable Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the U.S. Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that any Revolving Lender has made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to each such Revolving Lender 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 Revolving Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the applicable U.S. Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

-72-

(f) Obligations Absolute. The U.S. Borrowers’ obligations to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section are 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, any Letter of Credit Agreement or this Agreement, or any term or provision 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 substantially 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 paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder. No Lender Party, nor 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 or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or 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 the applicable Borrower(s) to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower(s) 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 bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank (with such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment), 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 which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an 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. Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative by telephone (confirmed by fax or through Electronic Systems) 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 Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the applicable Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement; provided, further, that until the Administrative Agent advises any such Issuing Bank that the provisions of Section 4.02 are not satisfied, such Issuing Bank shall be required to so notify the Administrative Agent in writing only once each week of the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the immediately preceding week as well as the daily amounts outstanding for the prior week, such notice to be furnished on such day of the week as Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank may agree.

(h) Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the U.S. Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, in the currency of the Letter of Credit to which such LC Disbursement relates, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the U.S. Borrowers reimburse such LC Disbursement in full, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the U.S. Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(h) 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 the Issuing Bank shall be 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(s) reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement in full.

-73-

(i) Replacement and Resignation of the Issuing Banks.

(i) Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the U.S. 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, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(ii) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank, an Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative and the Lenders, in which case, such resigning Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with clause (i) of Section 2.06(i) above.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower Representative receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, (i) the U.S. Borrowers shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the applicable Revolving Lenders (the “LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash in the currencies in which such LC Exposure is denominated equal to 105% of the LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit issued for the account of the U.S. Borrowers and their Restricted Subsidiaries as of such date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligations 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 the Company or other applicable Borrower described in clause (h), (i) or (j) of Article VII. Such deposits shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the U.S. Obligations arising from LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit issued for the account of the U.S. Borrowers and their Restricted Subsidiaries as further set forth in the applicable Collateral Documents. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over the LC Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the U.S. Borrowers’ risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in the LC Collateral Account. Moneys in the LC Collateral Account shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Collateral Documents, be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable 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 U.S. Borrowers for the LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit issued at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Required Lenders), be applied to satisfy the Secured Obligations (but subject to, in the case of any such application at a time when any Lender is a Defaulting Lender (but only if, after giving effect thereto, the remaining cash collateral shall be less than the aggregate LC Exposure of all the Defaulting Lenders that has not been reallocated to non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.20), the consent of each Issuing Bank). If any 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.

(k) [Reserved].

(l) Issuing Bank Reports to the Administrative Agent. 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) periodic activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, including all issuances, extensions (other than any extension of a Letter of Credit providing for automatic extension), amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit (other than any extension of a Letter of Credit providing for automatic extension), the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the stated amount and currency 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 amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date and amount and currency of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which the applicable Borrower(s) fail to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount cue and (v) 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.

(m) 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, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at the time of determination.

(n) Letters of Credit Issued for Restricted Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of a Restricted Subsidiary, the U.S. Borrowers shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. Each U.S. Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit requested by such U.S. Borrower for the account of Restricted Subsidiaries of such U.S. Borrower inures to the benefit of such U.S. Borrower, and that such U.S. Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Restricted Subsidiaries.

SECTION 2.07 Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Revolving Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, in each case, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Revolving Lenders. Subject to Section 2.02(d), the Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the applicable Borrower(s) by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the Funding Account(s); provided that Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of (i) an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank and (ii) a Protective Advance or Overadvance shall be retained by the Administrative Agent.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Revolving Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Borrowing, the Administrative 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(s) a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower(s) severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower(s) to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of (x) the Defaulting Lender Rate and (y) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, (w) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, the interest rate applicable to Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans, and (x) [reserved]. If the applicable Borrower(s) and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the applicable Borrower(s) the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by any Borrower(s) pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower(s) may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 2.08 [Reserved].

SECTION 2.09 Termination and Reduction of Commitments; Increase in Commitments.

(a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Maturity Date, or any earlier date on which the Commitments are reduced to zero or otherwise terminated pursuant to the terms hereof.

(b) The Borrower Representative may at any time terminate the Commitments upon (i) the payment in full of all outstanding Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and on any LC Disbursements, (ii) the cancellation and return of all outstanding Letters of Credit (or alternatively, with respect to each such Letter of Credit, the furnishing to the Administrative Agent of a cash deposit (or at the discretion of the Administrative Agent a backup standby letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) equal to 105% of the portion of the LC Exposure attributable to all Letters of Credit, as determined by the applicable Issuing Banks), (iii) the payment in full of all accrued and unpaid fees (including any Commitment Reduction Fee) and (iv) the payment in full of all reimbursable expenses and all other Obligations outstanding at such time.

(c) The Borrower Representative may from time to time reduce the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000, (ii) the Borrower Representative shall not reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the Borrowers would not be in compliance with the Revolving Exposure Limitations, and (iii) concurrently with the effectiveness of such reduction, the Borrower Representative shall pay any Commitment Reduction Fee that is due and payable in connection therewith.

(d) The Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section at least ten 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 Revolving Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower Representative pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower Representative may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower Representative (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.

SECTION 2.10 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrowers hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally promise to pay to (i) the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Lender, the principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, and (ii) the Administrative Agent the then unpaid amount of each Protective Advance and Overadvance, in each case, on the earliest of (A) the Maturity Date, (B) in the case of any Overadvance, the earlier of the 30th day after the date of the making thereof and the date of demand by the Administrative Agent and (C) in the case of any Protective Advance, demand by the Administrative Agent.

(b) On each Business Day during any Dominion Period, the Administrative Agent may (and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall) apply all funds credited to a Concentration Account or Collection Account on such Business Day or the immediately preceding Business Day (at the discretion of the Administrative Agent, whether or not immediately available) to the Obligations, which funds shall be applied first, to prepay any Protective Advances and Overadvances, second, to prepay the Revolving Loans, third, to cash collateralize outstanding LC Exposure, and fourth, as the Borrower Representative may direct. Further, all amounts received in a Concentration Account or Collection Account shall be applied pursuant to this paragraph (b) first against Protective Advances, Overadvances and Revolving Loans denominated in like currency to the currency of the moneys in such Concentration Account or Collection Account. In the event and to the extent that any Protective Advances, Overadvances or Revolving Loans remain unpaid (the “Payment and Collateralization Requirements”) following such application as a result of a mismatch between the currencies of the amounts in the Concentration Accounts or Collection Accounts and the currencies in which the outstanding Payment and Collateralization Requirements are denominated, the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have requested the Administrative Agent to convert any excess funds remaining in the Concentration Accounts or Collection Accounts to the currency or currencies of the outstanding Payment and Collateralization Requirements and apply such converted amounts to such outstanding Payment and Collateralization Requirements.

-76-

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

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

(e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) 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 the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to pay any amounts due hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(f) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the applicable Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 2.11 Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (h) of this Section.

(b) Revolving Exposure Limitations. Except to the extent such excess arises from Protective Advances permitted under Section 2.04 or Overadvances permitted under Section 2.05, in the event and on each occasion that the Borrowers are not in compliance with the Revolving Exposure Limitations, the Canadian Borrowers, the European Borrowers and the U.S. Borrowers shall severally prepay the Revolving Loans (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in the LC Collateral Account in accordance with Section 2.06(j)) of such Borrower(s) in an aggregate amount that, after giving effect to such prepayments or cash collateralizations the Borrowers shall be in compliance with the Revolving Exposure Limitations.

(iii) Nothing contained in this paragraph (c) shall permit any Loan Party to Dispose of any assets other than in accordance with Section 6.05.

(e) Indebtedness. Concurrently with the incurrence or issuance by any Loan Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.01), such Loan Party shall prepay the Revolving Loans (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in the LC Collateral Account in accordance with Section 2.06(j)) in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by such Person in connection with such incurrence or issuance.

-78-

(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.11, with respect to any amount of Extraordinary Receipts received by a Foreign Subsidiary (other than a Loan Party), in the event the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent determine in good faith that the upstreaming of cash equal to such amount by such Foreign Subsidiary (i) would violate any local Law (e.g., financial assistance, thin capitalization, corporate benefit, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group or the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of such Subsidiary) or any term of any organizational document applicable to such Foreign Subsidiary, or (ii) would cause any material adverse tax consequence to the applicable Borrower, its parent entities or its Subsidiaries, taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit actually available in connection with such upstreaming of cash in the year of such upstreaming of cash (which basis for and calculations of such material adverse tax consequences shall be set forth in reasonable detail in a written notice of the Borrower Representative delivered to the Administrative Agent), then, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such amount shall be excluded from such prepayment requirement in respect of the applicable Obligations until the Borrower Representative determines in good faith that such Foreign Subsidiary may repatriate such amounts without such material adverse consequences (at which time such amount shall be subject to such prepayment requirement); provided, that if and to the extent any such upstreaming ceases to be prohibited or delayed by applicable local law at any time during the one (1) year period immediately following the date on which the applicable mandatory prepayment was required to be made, the applicable Loan Parties shall reasonably promptly upstream, or cause to be upstreamed, an amount equal to such portion of the excluded prepayment amount attributable thereto (net of any costs related to such upstreaming or incremental Taxes payable as a result thereof), and the applicable Loan Parties shall reasonably promptly pay such portion of such prepayment amount to the Lenders.

(h) Prepayment Notice. The Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent, by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery or through Electronic System, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Administrative Agent) of any prepayment hereunder not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment. Each such 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 prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination 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. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Revolving 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 Borrower Representative agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee in Dollars, which shall accrue at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the daily amount by which the aggregate total Commitments exceed the aggregate Revolving Loans and LC Exposure (such excess amount, the “Unused Commitments”) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the Commitments terminate. Commitment fees accrued through and including the last day of each calendar month shall be payable in arrears on the first day of the following calendar month, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date, and on the date on which the Commitments terminate. 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.

(b) The Borrower Representative agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a letter of credit fee in Dollars with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which, subject to Section 2.13(h), shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans (as in effect from time to time) on the average daily Dollar Equivalent of such Revolving Lender’s applicable LC Exposure in respect of such Letters of Credit (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Revolving Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure in respect of such Borrower(s)’ Letters of Credit. In addition, the Borrower Representative agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee in Dollars, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to 0.50% of the average daily Dollar Equivalent of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued for the account of the U.S. Borrowers and their Restricted Subsidiaries by such Issuing Bank (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit issued for the account of the U.S. Borrowers and their Restricted Subsidiaries, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any such Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of each calendar month shall be payable on the first day of the following calendar month, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Banks 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.

(c) The Borrower Representative agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Lender Parties, fees in the amounts and payable at the times separately agreed upon in the Agent Fee Letter or the Fee Letter or as otherwise agreed between the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent.

(d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances (absent manifest error in the amount paid).

SECTION 2.13 Interest.

(a) Dollar Denominated Revolving Loans.

(i) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (excluding U.S. Protective Advances and U.S. Overadvances) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(ii) The Loans comprising each Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall bear interest at the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) [Reserved].

(d) [Reserved].

(e) [Reserved].

(f) Each Protective Advance and Overadvance shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for ABR Revolving Loans plus 2% per annum.

(g) [Reserved].

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (automatically upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under clause (h), (i) or (j) of Article VII, or at the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders during the continuance of any other Event of Default, which election may be effective retroactively to the date such Event of Default first occurred), (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall bear interest at 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loans as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section, (ii) letter of credit participation fees shall accrue at 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to Letters of Credit as provided in Section 2.12(b), (iii) the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate under clause (a) of the definition thereof shall be 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable thereunder (provided that the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate under clause (b) of the definition thereof shall remain unchanged), and (iv) all other outstanding Obligations shall bear interest at 2% per annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans hereunder.

(i) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (h) of this Section shall be payable on demand.

-80-

(j) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365/366 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Term SOFR Rate (other than ABR Loans determined by reference to the Term SOFR Rate) and all fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, 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 Term SOFR Rate or Term SOFR Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(k) Interest Act (Canada). For purposes of disclosure pursuant to the Interest Act (Canada), the annual rates of interest or fees to which the rates of interest or fees provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and stated herein or therein, as applicable, to be computed on the basis of 360 days or any other period of time less than a calendar year) are equivalent are the rates so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the applicable calendar year and divided by 360 or such other period of time, respectively.

(l) Limitation on Interest. If any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Loan Documents would obligate any Canadian Loan Party to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to the Lenders in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by the Lenders of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provisions, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by the Lenders of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows: (1) firstly, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to the Lenders under this Section 2.13, and (2) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to the Lenders which would constitute “interest” for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if the Lenders shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), the Canadian Loan Parties shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent, to obtain reimbursement from the Lenders in an amount equal to such excess and, pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by the Lenders to the Borrowers. Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Section 2.13(l) shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that the applicable Loan remains outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be prorated over that period of time and otherwise be prorated over the period from the Effective Date to the Maturity Date and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination.

(m) [Reserved].

(n) Swiss Minimum Interest Rate. The interest rates provided for the Swiss Borrower (and any Swiss Subsidiary) are minimum interest rates. The parties hereto have assumed, on the date of this Agreement, that Swiss Withholding Tax is not and will not become payable by the Swiss Borrower (and any Swiss Subsidiary) on interest payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Swiss Borrower (and any Swiss Subsidiary) acknowledges and agrees that the interest rates set out in this Agreement are minimum interest rates which shall be adjusted in accordance with subsection (o) below if Swiss Withholding Tax becomes payable at any time on interest payments by the Swiss Borrower (and any Swiss Subsidiary) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(o) Swiss Withholding Tax. If Swiss Withholding Tax applies on interest payments by the Swiss Borrower (and any Swiss Subsidiary) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the gross-up and indemnity provisions of Section 2.17(a) and Section 2.17(d) shall not apply, but instead the following shall apply, provided that the relevant Swiss Withholding Tax is not an Excluded Tax:

(i) The Swiss Borrower (and any Swiss Subsidiary) shall pay such additional amounts as shall be necessary in order for the net amounts received by the Lenders after withholding of Swiss Withholding Tax to be equal to the respective amounts of interest which would otherwise have been receivable in respect of this Agreement in the absence of the withholding of Swiss Withholding Tax;

-81-

(ii) Swiss Withholding Tax shall be calculated, deducted and paid by the Swiss Borrower (and any Swiss Subsidiary) to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration on the amount of interest so recalculated at a rate of currently thirty five percent (35%) (or such other rate as applicable from time to time), unless a tax ruling obtained from the Swiss Federal Tax Administration confirms that such rate is, pursuant to any double-taxation treaty, a specified lesser rate in relation to interest payments under this Agreement in which case such lesser rate shall be applied; and

(iii) To the extent that interest payable under a Loan Document becomes subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, the Loan Parties and the Lenders shall promptly co-operate in completing any procedural formalities (including submitting forms and documents required by the appropriate tax authority) to the extent possible and necessary (a) to make interest payments without them being subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, or (b) to being subject to Swiss Withholding Tax at a rate reduced under applicable double taxation treaties, or (c) for the Lenders to obtain a full or partial refund of Swiss Withholding Tax under applicable double taxation treaties. For the avoidance of doubt, a Lender who is treated as not being a Swiss Qualifying Bank pursuant to Section 2.17(i) shall not be under any obligation to change its status into a Swiss Qualifying Bank.

SECTION 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest; Illegality.

(a) Subject to the other clauses of this Section 2.14, if, at any applicable time, (i) the Administrative Agent determines in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Term SOFR Rate, as applicable, pursuant to the definitions thereof, (ii) the basis for determining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Term SOFR Rate, as applicable, ceases to be reported by the sources designated by the Administrative Agent from time to time and the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, other adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Term SOFR Rate, as applicable, or (iii) the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Loan that the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Term SOFR Rate, as applicable, does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans, and the Required Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower Representative and each Lender. Upon notice thereof (x) subject to Section 2.13(h), the interest rate applicable to the Revolving Loans and other Obligations denominated in Dollars shall be the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate determined and effective immediately, and (y) subject to Section 2.14(d), such substituted rate shall thereafter be determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof.

(b) Each of the Term SOFR Rate may be adjusted by the Administrative Agent with respect to any Lender on a prospective basis to take into account any additional or increased costs to such Lender of maintaining or obtaining any eurodollar deposits or increased costs (other than Taxes which shall be governed by Section 2.17), in each case, due to changes in applicable law, including any Changes in Law and changes in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors (including pursuant to regulations issued from time to time by the Federal Reserve Board for determining the maximum reserve requirement (including any emergency, special, supplemental or other marginal reserve requirement) with respect to eurocurrency funding (currently referred to as "Eurocurrency liabilities" in Regulation D)), which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of funding or maintaining loans bearing interest at the Term SOFR Rate. In any such event, the affected Lender shall give Borrowers and Administrative Agent notice of such a determination and adjustment and Administrative Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and, upon its receipt of the notice from the affected Lender, Borrowers may, by notice to such affected Lender (i) require such Lender to furnish to Borrowers a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for adjusting such Term SOFR Rate, and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment, or (ii) repay the Loans of such Lender with respect to which such adjustment is made.

(c) If there has been at any time an interest rate substituted for the Term SOFR Rate in accordance with this Section 2.14 and if in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, the circumstances causing such substitution have ceased, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative in writing of such cessation, and thereafter the Term SOFR Rate shall be determined as originally defined hereby.

-82-

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and the Borrower Representative so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.14(b) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(f) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.14, including any determination with respect to a rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.14.

(g) Upon the Borrower Representative’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower Representative may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, and, failing that, either (x) the Borrower Representative will be deemed to have converted any request for (1) a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to an ABR Borrowing or (y) any Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency shall be ineffective.

(h) If any Lender determines that any Requirement of Law has made it unlawful, or if any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain, fund or continue any Term Benchmark Borrowing, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, any obligations of such Lender to make, maintain, fund or continue Term Benchmark Loans will be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers will upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), either prepay all applicable Term Benchmark Borrowings of such Lender or be deemed to have converted all Term Benchmark Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings (in the case of Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Borrowings), respectively, on the date specified in such Lender’s notice. Upon any such conversion or prepayment, the Borrowers will also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted or prepaid.

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 applicable Term Benchmark) or any Issuing Bank; or

(ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London, Canadian or other applicable offshore interbank market for the applicable Agreed Currency any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein,

-83-

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than any (A) Indemnified Taxes or (B) Excluded Taxes) on or with respect to 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 or other Recipient of making or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender or other Recipient 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 or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, from time to time upon request of such Lender or other Recipient, the applicable Borrower(s) will pay to such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or 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 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 such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or 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 or liquidity), then, from time to time upon request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower(s) 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) 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) or (b) of this Section delivered to the Borrower Representative shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower(s) shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) 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 costs or expenses incurred or reductions suffered more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower Representative of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased 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 giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding the above, a Lender will not be entitled to demand compensation for any increased cost or reduction set forth in this Section 2.15 at any time if it is not the general practice and policy of such Lender to demand such compensation from similarly situated borrowers in similar circumstances under agreements containing provisions permitting such compensation to be claimed at such time.

SECTION 2.16 Compensation for Losses. With respect to any Loans, in the event of the failure to borrow or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(h) and is revoked in accordance therewith), then the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense (excluding any loss of margin) attributable to such event, including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds (but not loss of profits) obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. A certificate of any Lender delivered to the Borrower Representative and setting forth and explaining in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower(s) shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.

-84-

SECTION 2.17 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made 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 payment by any applicable 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, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party 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) the applicable Lender (or, in the case of payments made to the Administrative Agent for its own account, the Administrative Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it (or, as applicable, the relevant Lenders) for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Evidence of Payment. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent.

(d) Indemnification by the Loan Parties. Without duplication of any amounts actually paid pursuant to Section 2.17(a), the applicable Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) payable or paid by such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified 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 the Borrower Representative by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) or (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

-85-

(A) any Lender to a U.S. Borrower shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent), an executed copy of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding;

(B) any Foreign Lender to a U.S. Borrower shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient;

(1) an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party;

(2) an executed copy of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms);

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10-percent shareholder” of any U.S. Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and that no payments in connection with any Loan Document are effectively connected with the Foreign Lender’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms); or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), an executed copy of IRS Form W‑8IMY (or any successor forms), accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender to a U.S. Borrower shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

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

-86-

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered (including any specific documentation required in this Section 2.17(e)) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall deliver promptly to the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so.

Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties and to any other successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.17(e).

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.17(e), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.17(f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.17(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.17(f) 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 2.17(f) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person.

(g) Defined Terms. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and, for purposes of this Section 2.17(e)(ii)(C) and (ii)(D), the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(h) VAT.

(i) All amounts set out or expressed in a Loan Document to be payable by any Loan Party to any Lender Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for a supply or supplies for VAT purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply or supplies, and accordingly, subject to Section 2.17(h)(ii), if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender Party to any Loan Party under a Loan Document, that Loan Party shall pay to the Lender Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT (and the relevant Lender Party shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to such Loan Party).

(ii) Where a Loan Document requires any Loan Party to reimburse or indemnify a Lender Party for any cost or expense, that Loan Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Lender Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

(iii) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender Party (the “Supplier”) to any other Lender Party (the “Recipient”) under a Loan Document, and any party other than the Recipient (the “Relevant Party”) is required by the terms of any Loan Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration):

(A) (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT and the Recipient must (where this paragraph (A) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply; and

(B) (where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply save to the extent that such Recipient reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

(iv) Any reference in this Section 2.17(h) to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the representative member of such group at such time (the term “representative member” to have the same meaning as in the United Kingdom’s Value Added Tax Act 1994 or applicable legislation in other jurisdictions having a similar effect).

(i) Lender Confirmation. Each Lender shall specify on the date of this Agreement whether it is or is not a Swiss Qualifying Bank (or if unknown, shall indicate its status is unknown, in which case it shall be treated by the Swiss Borrower (and each Swiss Subsidiary) as if it were not a Swiss Qualifying Bank) and confirm that it counts as a single Lender for purposes of the Swiss Non-Bank Rules. A Swiss Borrower (and each Swiss Subsidiary) shall have the right to refuse an initial Lender if this would lead to a breach of the Swiss Ten Non-Bank Rule. Each Lender that becomes a party to this Agreement after the date of this Agreement shall specify whether it is or is not a Swiss Qualifying Bank and confirm that it counts as a single Lender for purposes of the Swiss Non-Bank Rules. If a Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 2.17(i), then that Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including with respect to the Swiss Borrower (and each Swiss Subsidiary)) as if it is not a Swiss Qualifying Bank until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent of its status (and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform each Swiss Borrower of its status). For the avoidance of doubt, (A) the documentation that a Lender executes on becoming a party to this Agreement shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 2.17(i) and (B) none of the Loan Documents shall be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 2.17(i) or to indicate its status is unknown.

(j) FATCA Information.

(i) Subject to paragraph (iii) below, each party shall, within ten Business Days of a reasonable request by another party: (x) confirm to that other party whether it is: (A) a FATCA Exempt Party; or (B) not a FATCA Exempt Party; (y) supply to that other party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA as that other party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other party’s compliance with FATCA; and (z) supply to that other party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status as that other party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other party’s compliance with any other law, regulation, or ex-change of information regime.

(ii) If a party confirms to another party pursuant to paragraph (i)(x) above that it is a FATCA Exempt Party and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that party shall notify that other party reasonably promptly.

(iii) Paragraph (i) above shall not oblige any Lender Party to do anything, and paragraph (i)(z) above shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of: (x) any law or regulation; (y) any fiduciary duty; or (z) any duty of confidentiality.

(iv) If a party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (i)(x) or (i)(y) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (iii) above applies), then such party shall be treated (and payments accordingly) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.

SECTION 2.18 Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Setoffs.

(a) The Borrowers shall make each payment or prepayment required to be made by them hereunder or under any other Loan Document on or prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment or, if no such time is expressly required, on or prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due or the date fixed or any prepayment hereunder, in immediately available funds, without any defense, setoff, recoupment or counterclaim. All payments (i) in respect of any Loan (and interest thereon) shall be made in the same currency in which such Loan was made and (ii) in respect of all fees, in respect of reimbursement of LC Disbursements and in respect of any other amounts payable hereunder or under other Loan Documents shall be paid in Dollars. All such payments in respect of Revolving Loans and LC Exposure shall be made and allocated, pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of such Loans and the LC Exposure of each Lender. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Agent’s Account, except that payments required to be made directly to an Issuing Bank 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 Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payment received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Unless otherwise provided for herein, if any payment hereunder or under any other 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.

(b) Any payments and any proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent (x) not constituting (A) a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by the Borrower Representative), (B) a mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.11) or (C) amounts to be applied from a Concentration Account or Collection Account during any Dominion Period (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10(b)) or (y) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, shall be applied ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank from the Borrowers; second, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrowers; third, to pay interest due in respect of the Protective Advances and Overadvances; fourth, to pay the principal of the Protective Advances and Overadvances; fifth, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans (other than the Protective Advances and Overadvances) ratably; sixth, to prepay principal on the Loans (other than the Protective Advances and Overadvances) and unreimbursed LC Disbursements ratably; seventh, to deposit in the LC Collateral Account cash collateral (in accordance with 2.06(j)); eighth, to payment of any amounts owing in respect of Secured Banking Services; ninth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligations due to any Lender Party by the Borrowers; and tenth, any excess to be returned to Borrower Representative.

(d) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements, Protective Advances or Overadvances resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, Protective Advances or Overadvances and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, Protective Advances and Overadvances of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the amount of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amounts of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, Protective Advances and Overadvances; 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 the Borrowers 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, Protective Advances or Overadvances to any Person that is an Eligible Assignee (as such term is defined from time to time). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. For purposes of subclause (b)(i) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes”, a Lender that acquires a participation pursuant to this Section 2.18(d) shall be treated as having acquired such participation on the earlier date(s) on which such Lender acquired the applicable interest(s) in the Commitment(s) and/or Loan(s) to which such participation relates.

-89-

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received, prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of any of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks pursuant to the terms hereof or any other Loan Document (including any date that is fixed for prepayment by notice from the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.11(h)), notice from the Borrower Representative that the applicable Borrower(s) will not make such payment or prepayment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower(s) have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders or Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the applicable Borrower(s) have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Defaulting Lender Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(f) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder to or for the account of the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative 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 and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and apply any such amounts to, any future payment obligations of such Lender hereunder to or for the account of the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 2.19 Mitigation Obligations: Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Loan Party is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or to 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 judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation (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 or Issuing Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or Issuing Bank. The applicable Borrower(s) hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation.

-90-

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Loan Party is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower Representative may, at the sole expense and effort of the applicable Borrower(s), upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent by the Borrower Representative, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (i) the Borrower Representative shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank, which consents shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, Protective Advances and Overadvances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the applicable Borrower(s) (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iv) such assignment and delegation does not conflict with applicable law. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the applicable Borrower(s) to require such assignment and delegation have ceased to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and the assignee (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants), and (b) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender, provided that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

SECTION 2.20 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) commitment fees shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);

(b) the Commitment and Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or all affected Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that when a Defaulting Lender shall exist, any such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment shall be disregarded in any of such calculations to the extent that disregarding the applicable Commitments would not cause the Credit Exposure of any Lender under any Loan to exceed the amount of such Lender’s Commitment under such Loan and any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

(c) if any LC Exposure, Protective Advance Exposure or Overadvance Exposure exists under which such Lender has a Commitment at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then:

(i) such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (other than any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Section 2.06(d)), Protective Advance Exposure (other than any portion thereof with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Section 2.04(b)) and Overadvance Exposure (other than any portion thereof with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Section 2.05(c)) shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages, but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure, Protective Advance Exposure and Overadvance Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the applicable Borrower(s) shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender, (A) first, prepay the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Overadvance Exposure that has not been so reallocated, (B) second, prepay the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Protective Advance Exposure that has not been so reallocated, and (C) third, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure that has not been so reallocated in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.06(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

-91-

(iii) if any Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the applicable Borrower(s) shall not be required to pay any letter of credit participation fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s cash collateralized LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv) if any portion of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (c)(i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(b) shall be adjusted to give effect to such reallocation; or

(v) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to clause (c)(i) or (c)(ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit 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 such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; and

In the event and on the date that each of the Administrative Agent, the Company, each of the Issuing Banks agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the LC Exposure, Protective Advance Exposure and Overadvance Exposure of the other Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold Revolving Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action with respect to a Lender Parent shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) any Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, such Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless such Issuing Bank shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to such Issuing Bank to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

SECTION 2.21 Returned Payments. If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, any Lender Party is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside or determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender. The provisions of this Section 2.21 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds. The provisions of this Section 2.21 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.22 Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers.

(a) Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including any Obligations arising under this Section), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among them.

-92-

(b) If and to the extent that a Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation.

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any other Borrower or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any other Borrower, other than the payment in full in cash of the Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any other Borrower or any other Person. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with any other Borrower or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any other Borrower, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, except to the extent the Obligations have been fully and paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Borrower against any other Borrower or any security.

(d) No Borrower will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against any other Borrower, or any Collateral, until the Loan Parties have fully performed all their obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the other Lender Parties.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent

SECTION 8.01 Authorization and Action.

(a) Each of the Lenders and each of the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent and its successors to serve in such capacity and to serve as collateral agent under the Loan Documents, and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In addition, to the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States of America, each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby grants to the Administrative Agent any required powers of attorney to execute any Collateral Document governed by the laws of such jurisdiction on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s behalf. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents.

-129-

(b) It is understood and agreed by the parties hereto, that as part of its duties and functions, the Administrative Agent shall serve as the hypothecary representative for itself and for all present and future Lender Parties, as contemplated by Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec (the “CCQ”). For greater certainty, and without limiting the powers of the Administrative Agent, each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as hypothecary representative for all present and future Lender Parties as contemplated under Article 2692 of the CCQ in order to hold hypothecs and security granted under any Loan Document pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure performance of all or part of the Secured Obligations and to exercise such powers and duties which are conferred upon the Lenders and the Issuing Banks thereunder. The appointment of the Administrative Agent as hypothecary representative shall be deemed to have been ratified and confirmed by each Person that accedes or has acceded to this Agreement as a Lender or Issuing Bank after the date hereof. The Loan Parties hereby acknowledge the appointment of the Administrative Agent as the hypothecary representative of the Lender Parties as contemplated under Article 2692 of the CCQ. In the event of the resignation of the Administrative Agent and appointment of a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall also act as hypothecary representative without further formality. The execution by the Administrative Agent as the hypothecary representative of the relevant deeds of hypothec or other relevant documentation prior to the date hereof is hereby ratified and confirmed by each Lender and Issuing Bank. In its capacity of hypothecary representative, the Administrative Agent shall (a) have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise, except as may be otherwise specifically restricted hereunder, all rights and remedies given to the hypothecary representative pursuant to any hypothec, applicable law or otherwise, (b) benefit from and be subject to all provisions hereof with respect to the Administrative Agent, mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability or responsibility to and indemnification by the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and (c) be entitled to delegate from time to time any of its powers or duties under any hypothec or other Loan Document, on such terms and conditions as it may determine from time to time.

(c) As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing, such instructions shall be binding upon each Lender and Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Banks with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or any other Insolvency Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or any other Insolvency Law; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrowers, any other Loan Party, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(d) In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i) the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, Issuing Bank or Lender Party other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty 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); additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby;

-130-

(ii) where the Administrative Agent is required or deemed to act as a trustee in respect of any Collateral over which a security interest has been created pursuant to a Loan Document expressed to be governed by the laws of England and Wales, the obligations and liabilities of the Administrative Agent to the Lender Parties in its capacity as trustee shall be excluded to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law; and

(iii) nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account.

(e) The Administrative Agent may perform any of 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 the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of their respective duties and exercise their respective 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 the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not 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 the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.

(f) [Reserved].

(g) In the event of the pendency of any case or proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Insolvency Law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any reimbursement obligation in respect of any LC Disbursement shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

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

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

-131-

The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and, except solely to the extent of the Borrowers’ right to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, no Borrower nor any Subsidiary, or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary under any such provisions. Each Lender Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Secured Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article.

SECTION 8.02 Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Indemnification, Etc.

(a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (x) with the consent of or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or (y) in the absence of its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.

(b) The Administrative 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 Person by the Borrower Representative, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, and such Person shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (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, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral, or (vi) 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 the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for, or be responsible for any claim, liability, loss, cost or expense suffered by any Borrower, any other Loan Party, any Subsidiary, any Lender or the Issuing Bank as a result of, any determination of the Revolving Exposure, any of the component amounts thereof or any portion thereof attributable to each Lender or Issuing Bank, or any exchange rate or Dollar Equivalent.

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its holder until such promissory note has been assigned in accordance with Section 9.04, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 9.04(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or Issuing Bank and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Bank for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance of the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).

-132-

SECTION 8.03 Reliance. With respect to its Commitment, Loans and Letters of Credit, the Person serving as the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be. The terms “Issuing Bank”, “Lenders”, “Required Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender, Issuing Bank or as one of the Required Lenders, as applicable. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent 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 banking, trust or other business with, any Loan Party, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing as if such Person was not acting as the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank.

SECTION 8.04 Successor Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower Representative, whether or not a successor has been appointed. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, 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 Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower Representative (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor, the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor its rights as the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this Section, in the event no successor shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrowers, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Collateral Document for the benefit of the Lender Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Lender Parties and continue to be entitled to the rights set forth in such Collateral Document and Loan Document, and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this Section (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further action under any Collateral Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and (ii) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender and Issuing Bank. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article, Section 2.17(d) and Section 9.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as the Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (a) above.

-133-

(d) (i) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank (any such Lender or Issuing Bank, a “Payment Recipient”) hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Payment Recipient that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Payment Recipient shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Defaulting Lender Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Payment Recipient shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this Section 8.05(d) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

-134-

(ii) Each Payment Recipient hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Payment Recipient agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Payment Recipient shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Defaulting Lender Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(iii) The Borrower Representative and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) are not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Payment Recipient with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower Representative or any other Loan Party; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower for the purpose of making such Payment.

(iv) Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.05(d) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Payment Recipient, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

SECTION 8.06 Collateral Matters.

(a) Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.08 or with respect to a Lender Party’s right to file a proof of claim and vote with respect thereto in connection with any proposed plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition, or similar dispositive restructuring plan in any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding, no Lender Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Secured Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lender Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. In its capacity, the Administrative Agent is a “representative” of the Lender Parties within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the UCC and the PPSA, as applicable. In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Lender Parties any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lender Parties.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no arrangements in respect of Banking Services the obligations under which constitute Secured Obligations will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Lender Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Loan Party under any Loan Document. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Lender Party that is a party to any such arrangement in respect of Banking Services shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Lender Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) the Secured Banking Services Obligations shall only be secured and guaranteed pursuant to the Collateral Documents and only to the extent that, and for so long as, the other Secured Obligations are so secured and guaranteed, and (ii) any release of Collateral or Guarantors effected in the manner permitted by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not require the consent of the holders of the Secured Banking Services Obligations.

-135-

(c) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders or any Lender Party for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

SECTION 8.07 Credit Bidding. The Lender Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement) credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provisions of any other Insolvency Laws or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Lender Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles (ii) each of the Lender Parties’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 9.02 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Lender Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Lender Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Lender Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Lender Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Lender Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Lender Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Lender Party (and/or any designee of the Lender Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments or this Agreement;

(ii) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement;

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement; or

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(b) In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that the Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

SECTION 8.09 UK Security Agreements.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Lender and each Issuing Bank irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent to act as its trustee under and in connection with each UK Security Agreement on the terms and conditions set out in any such UK Security Agreement to hold the assets subject to the security thereby created as trustee for the Lender Parties on the trusts and other terms contained in any such UK Security Agreement. Each of the Lender Parties authorizes the Administrative Agent to exercise the rights, remedies, power and discretions, specifically given to the Administrative Agent under or in respect of the UK Security Agreements, together with any rights, remedies, power and discretions, incidental thereto. In addition, when acting in the capacity of trustee for the Lender Parties, the Administrative Agent shall have all the rights, remedies and benefits of and in favor of the Administrative Agent contained in this Article VIII.

(c) Nothing in this Article VIII shall require the Administrative Agent to act as a trustee at common law or to hold any property on trust in any jurisdiction outside the United States or the United Kingdom that may not operate under principles of trust or where such trust would not be recognized or its effects would not be enforceable.

SECTION 8.10 German and Dutch Security Agreements.

(a) In relation to the German Security Agreements the following additional provisions shall apply:

(i) the Administrative Agent, with respect to the Collateral being subject to the German Security Agreements or any other Secured Obligation created under the German Law, shall: (A) hold, administer and realise such Collateral that is transferred or assigned by way of security (Sicherungseigentum/Sicherungsabtretung) or otherwise granted to it and is creating or evidencing a non-accessory security right (nicht akzessorische Sicherheit) in its own name as trustee (Treuhänder) for the benefit of the Lender Parties; and (B) hold (with regard to its own rights under the Parallel Debt), administer, and realise any such Collateral that is pledged (verpfändet) or otherwise transferred to the Administrative Agent and is creating or evidencing an accessory security right (akzessorische Sicherheit) as agent in the name of and for and on the behalf of the Lender Parties, and in its own name on the basis of the Parallel Debt;

(ii) with respect to the Collateral being subject to the German Security Agreements, each Lender Party hereby authorizes and grants a power of attorney, and each future Lender Party by becoming a party to this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.01 of this Agreement authorizes, and grants a power of attorney (Vollmacht) to the Administrative Agent (whether or not by or through employees or agents) to: (A) accept as its representative (Stellvertreter) any pledge or other creation of any accessory security right granted in favor of such Lender Party in connection with the German Security Agreements and to agree to and execute on its behalf as its representative (Stellvertreter) any amendments and/or alterations to any German Security Agreements or any other agreement related to such Collateral which creates a pledge or any other accessory security right (akzessorische Sicherheit) including the release or confirmation of release of such security; (B) execute on behalf of itself and the Lender Parties where relevant and without the need for any further referral to, or authority from, the Lender Parties or any other person all necessary releases of any such Collateral being subject to the German Security Agreements or any other agreement related to such Collateral; (C) realize such Collateral in accordance with the German Security Agreements or any other agreement securing such Collateral; (D) make, receive all declarations and statements and undertake all other necessary actions and measures which are necessary or desirable in connection with such Collateral or the German Security Agreements or any other agreement securing the Collateral; (E) take such action on its behalf as may from time to time be authorized under or in accordance with the German Security Agreements; and (F) exercise such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are specifically delegated to or conferred upon the Lender Parties under the German Security Agreements together with such powers and discretions as are reasonably incidental thereto;

(iii) each of the Lender Parties agrees that, if the courts of Germany do not recognize or give effect to the trust expressed to be created by this Agreement or any German Security Agreement, the relationship of the Lender Parties to the Administrative Agent shall be construed as one of principal and agent but, to the extent permissible under the laws of Germany, all the other provisions of this Agreement shall have full force and effect between the parties hereto;

(iv) each Lender Party hereby ratifies and approves, and each future Lender Party by becoming a party to this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.01 of this Agreement ratifies and approves, all acts and declarations previously done by the Administrative Agent on such person’s behalf (including for the avoidance of doubt the declarations made by the Administrative Agent as representative without power of attorney (Vertreter ohne Vertretungsmacht) in relation to the creation of any pledge (Pfandrecht) on behalf and for the benefit of each Lender Party as future pledgee or otherwise); and

(v) for the purpose of performing its rights and obligations as Administrative Agent and to make use of any authorization granted under this Agreement and under the German Security Agreements, each Lender Party hereby authorizes, and each future Lender Party by becoming a party to this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.01 of this Agreement authorizes, the Administrative Agent to act as its agent (Stellvertreter), and, to the extent possible, releases the Administrative Agent from any restrictions on representing several persons and self-dealing under any applicable law, and in particular from the restrictions of Section 181 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch). The Administrative Agent has the power to grant sub-power of attorney, including the release from the restrictions of section 181 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch).

(b) Parallel Debt.

(i) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes (and to the extent necessary undertakes in advance) to pay to the Administrative Agent amounts equal to any amounts owing from time to time by such Loan Party to any Lender Party under this Agreement and any other Loan Document pursuant to any Secured Obligations as and when those amounts are due under any Loan Document (such payment undertakings under this Section 8.10(b) and the obligations and liabilities resulting therefrom being the “Parallel Debt”);

(ii) the Administrative Agent shall have its own independent right to demand payment of the Parallel Debt by the Loan Party. Each Loan Party and the Administrative Agent acknowledge that the obligations of each Loan Party under Section 5.06 are several, separate and independent (selbständiges Schuldanerkenntnis) from, and shall not in any way limit or affect, the corresponding obligations of each Loan Party to any Lender Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (the “Corresponding Debt”) nor shall the amounts for which each Loan Party are liable under this Section 8.10(b) be limited or affected in any way by its Corresponding Debt provided that: (A) the Parallel Debt shall be decreased to the extent that the Corresponding Debt has been irrevocably paid or discharged (other than, in each case, contingent obligations); (B) the Corresponding Debt shall be decreased to the extent that the Parallel Debt has been irrevocably paid or discharged; (C) the amount of the Parallel Debt shall at all times be equal to the amount of the Corresponding Debt; (D) the Parallel Debt will be payable in the currency or currencies of the Corresponding Debt; and (E) for the avoidance of doubt, the Parallel Debt will become due and payable at the same time when the Corresponding Debt becomes due and payable;

(iv) without limiting or affecting the Administrative Agent’s rights against any Loan Party (whether under this Agreement or any other Loan Document), each Loan Party acknowledges that: (A) in this Agreement shall impose any obligation on the Administrative Agent to advance any sum to any Loan Party or otherwise under any Loan Document; and (B) for the purpose of any vote taken under any Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not be regarded as having any participation or commitment other that those which it has in its capacity as a Lender;

(v) the Parties to this Agreement acknowledge and confirm that the provisions contained in this Agreement shall not be interpreted so as to increase the maximum total amount of the Obligations;

All such notices and other communications (i) sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received, (ii) sent by electronic transmission shall be deemed to have been given when sent (or, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient) and (iii) delivered through Electronic Systems or Approved Electronic Platforms, as applicable, to the extent provided in paragraph (b) of this Section shall be effective as provided in such paragraph.

(b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders and Issuing Banks under the Loan Documents may be delivered or furnished by Electronic Systems or Approved Electronic Platforms, as applicable, pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices under Article II to any Lender or Issuing Bank if such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication.

-141-

(c) Any party hereto may change its address or electronic transmission address for notices and other communications under the Loan Documents by notice to the other parties hereto.

(d) The Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank by posting the Communications on IntraLinks^TM, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic system chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

(e) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and each Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

(f) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND 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 BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

(g) Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

(h) Each of the Lenders, Issuing Bank and each Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.

(i) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

SECTION 9.02 Waivers; Amendments.

-142-

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under any other Loan Document 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 making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative 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 5.16, 9.02(e), 9.02(f) and 9.18 (and, except as specifically provided in any Loan Document with respect to the Schedules thereto), and except for the execution and delivery of the Joinder Agreements, and subject to Section 2.14(c), none of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or (ii) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent (if a party to the original agreement) and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that (A) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to cure any obvious error, technical error, ambiguity, omission, error or omission that is immaterial in nature, defect or inconsistency so long as, in each case, the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five 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, (B) any provision of the Agent Fee Letter may be waived, amended or modified by an agreement in writing entered into by the parties thereto, and (C) no such agreement shall (1) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (provided that the Administrative Agent may make Protective Advances and Overadvances as set forth in Section 2.04 or 2.05, as applicable), (2) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any interest or fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (3) postpone any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest, fees or other Obligations payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (4) change Section 2.18(b) or 2.18(d) in a manner that would alter the manner in which payments are shared, without the written consent of each Lender, (5) (x) increase the advance rates referred to in the definition of, or otherwise modify the definition of, “U.S. Borrowing Base”, “Canadian Borrowing Base”, “European Borrowing Base”, “German Borrowing Base” or “Swiss Borrowing Base” to the extent that any such change results in more credit being made available to the Borrowers based upon the Borrowing Base, (y) add new categories of eligible assets or (z) modify the definition of “Eligible Accounts”, “Eligible Credit Card Accounts Receivable”, “Eligible Finished Goods Inventory” or “Eligible Intellectual Property” or any of the defined terms that are used in such definitions to the extent that any such change results in more credit being made available to the Borrowers based upon the Borrowing Base, but not otherwise, in each case without the written consent of each Lender, (6) 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 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, (7) change Section 2.20 without the consent of each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) adversely affected thereby, (8) release all or substantially all of the value of the Loan Guarantee (except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender, (9) except as provided in paragraph (c) of this Section or in any Collateral Document, (x) release all or substantially all of the Collateral, (y) contractually subordinate the Obligations in right of payment to any other Indebtedness for borrowed money or, without limiting Section 9.02(c) or 9.18, contractually subordinate the Liens on all or substantially all of the Collateral securing the Obligations to the Liens on the Collateral securing any other Indebtedness for borrowed money, except in connection with any “debtor in possession” financing (or any similar financing arrangement in an insolvency proceeding in a non-U.S. jurisdiction) (it being understood that this clause (x) shall not override the permission for Liens on the Collateral expressly permitted by this Agreement (as in effect on the Effective Date) to be senior in priority to the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations or (z) except as provided in Section 9.18(b) as in effect on the date hereof, modify the definition of the term “ABL Priority Collateral” herein or in the Intercreditor Agreement in a manner that would result in the removal of Collateral otherwise constituting ABL Priority Collateral therefrom, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender, (10) waive, amend or modify any of the provisions of Section 5.31, Schedule 5.31 or Section 7.01(d) (solely in respect of Section 5.31) without the written consent of each Lender, (11) modify the definition of “Aggregate Borrowing Base” or “Borrowing Base”, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender, (12) modify the definition of “Successful Exchange Transaction” without the written consent of each Lender, (13) change Section 9.04 to the extent that any such change imposes a restriction on any assignment by a Lender that is permitted as of the Effective Date without the written consent of each Lender, (14) waive, amend or modify any of the provisions of Section 7.01(p) without the written consent of each Lender or (15) waive, amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.04 or Section 2.05 to increase the percentage caps on Protective Advances or Overadvances without the written consent of each Lender; provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be (it being understood that any change to Section 2.20 shall require the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank); provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.06 or any letter of credit application and any bilateral agreement between the Borrower Representative and an Issuing Bank regarding the respective rights and obligations between the applicable Borrower and such Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance of Letters of Credit without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, respectively.

-143-

(c) The Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, upon the request of the Company:

(i) to release any Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral (A) upon the termination of all the Commitments, payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Obligations (other than Banking Services Obligations and Unliquidated Obligations) and the cash collateralization of all Unliquidated Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit in a manner satisfactory to each applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, (B) constituting property being sold or disposed of to a Person that is not a Loan Party if the Loan Party disposing of such property certifies to the Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (including the Updated Borrowing Base Condition if applicable thereto) (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), and to the extent that the property being sold or disposed of constitutes 100% of the Equity Interest of a Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent is authorized to release any Loan Guarantee provided by such Subsidiary, (C) constituting property leased to a Loan Party under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction not prohibited under this Agreement, (D) as required to effect any sale or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article VII and (E) constituting property of a Loan Party that is being released as a Guarantor (and, in the case of a U.S. Subsidiary Borrower, as a U.S. Subsidiary Borrower) as provided below;

(ii) to release any Loan Guarantee provided by any U.S. Subsidiary Borrower, U.S. Guarantor or Foreign Loan Party (A) that is dissolved pursuant to Section 6.03(a)(iv) in connection with a voluntary liquidation or dissolution thereof permitted by such Section, (B) that is no longer a Subsidiary of the Company as a result of the disposition of all of the outstanding Equity Interests of such Subsidiary of the Company (other than a Borrower) (or the direct or indirect parent of such Subsidiary) to a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05, or (C) upon the designation of such Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with Section 5.17 and, in connection therewith, to release any Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by such Subsidiary on any Collateral, if the Company certifies to the Administrative Agent that such liquidation or dissolution, disposition or designation is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (including the Updated Borrowing Base Condition if applicable thereto) (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry). The Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby further irrevocably authorize the release of Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement; and

-144-

(iii) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(e).

Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

(d) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender affected thereby”, the consents of Lenders having Credit Exposure and unused Commitments representing more than 66% of the sum of the total Credit Exposure and unused Commitments at such time are obtained, but the consents of other necessary Lenders are not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower Representative may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, elect to replace any Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement; provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) an Eligible Assignee which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of paragraph (b) of Section 9.04, and (ii) the applicable Borrower(s) shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by such Borrowers hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.15 and 2.17. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and the assignee (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants), and (b) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender, provided that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any Lender Party, consent to a departure by any Loan Party from any covenant of such Loan Party set forth in this Agreement or in any Collateral Document to the extent such departure is consistent with the authority of the Administrative Agent set forth in the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement”.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, in consultation with the Borrower Representative, but without the consent of any Lender Party or Loan Party, amend any of the Loan Documents to modify or add covenants, defaults or other provisions in favor of the Lenders, to the extent corresponding covenants, defaults or other provisions of any of the 2026 Notes Documents or the 2029 Notes Documents are (either initially or after giving effect to any amendment or other modification thereto) more beneficial to the holders of the 2029 Notes than the Lenders as set forth in the Loan Documents. The Borrowers shall cooperate in good faith with the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation of any such amendment and shall acknowledge such amendment in writing if requested by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) The Company shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one primary U.S. counsel for the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and one primary U.S. counsel for Great Rock Capital, and if deemed reasonably necessary by the Administrative Agent, one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction (which may include a single firm of counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions), in connection with the syndication and distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet or through any Electronic System or Approved Electronic Platform) of the credit facility provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of the Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each 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 reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement, collection 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. Subject to the provisions of Sections 5.09, 5.12 and 5.13, expenses subject to reimbursement by the Borrowers under this Section include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with:

-145-

(i) appraisals and insurance reviews;

(ii) field examinations and the preparation of Reports based on the fees charged by a third party retained by the Administrative Agent or the internally allocated fees for each Person employed by the Administrative Agent with respect to each field examination;

(iii) fees and other charges for (A) lien searches and (B) filing financing statements and continuations, and other actions to perfect, protect, and continue the Administrative Agent’s Liens;

(iv) sums paid or incurred to take any action required of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents that such Loan Party fails to pay or take; and

(v) forwarding loan proceeds, collecting checks and other items of payment, and establishing and maintaining the accounts and lock boxes, and costs and expenses of preserving and protecting the Collateral.

(b) The Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), 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, penalties, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable 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 execution or delivery of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an 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 on at, under, to or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the any Loan Party or any of the Subsidiaries, or any other Environmental Liability related in any way to any Loan Party or any of the Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation, arbitration or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether such proceeding is initiated against or by any party to this Agreement, or any Affiliate thereof, by an Indemnitee or any third party or whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This Section 9.03(b) shall not apply to any Taxes (other than Other Taxes or any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages or related expenses arising from any non-Tax claim).

-146-

(c) Each Lender severally agrees to pay any amount required to be paid by any Loan Party under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.03 to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each, an “Agent Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by a Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), ratably according to their respective Applicable Percentage in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Applicable Percentage immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent Indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; 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 Indemnitee in its capacity as such; provided, further, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Loan Party shall 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) 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, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or 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) no Loan Party 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 a Loan Party 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) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the sub-agents of the Administrative Agent and the Related Parties of any of the Administrative Agent, 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) of:

(A) the Borrower Representative; provided that no consent of the Borrower Representative 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 the Borrower Representative 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 notice thereof; and

(B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment by any Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender.

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

-147-

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, 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 $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the Borrower Representative shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(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;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (x) an Assignment and Assumption or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500;

(D) [reserved];

(E) [reserved]; and

(F) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Company, the Subsidiaries and other Affiliates thereof or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including federal, state, provincial, territorial and foreign securities laws.

(iii) The consent of each Swiss Borrower (and each Swiss Subsidiary) shall be required for any assignment of the rights and obligations in respect of a Commitment or Loans in respect of each Swiss Borrower (and each Swiss Subsidiary) (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, in particular if such assignment does not result in a breach of the Swiss Ten Non-Bank Rule), unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender or a Swiss Qualifying Bank.

(iv) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) 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 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.

(v) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and records 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 manifest 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.

-148-

(vi) Upon its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05, 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 8.05(c) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

Notwithstanding any of the forgoing to the contrary, no consent of any Person shall be required for an assignment by a Lender in connection with a sale by such Lender of all or substantially all of its loan portfolio or in connection with a change of control transaction involving such Lender (in each case, whether occurring by way of equity sale, merger or otherwise); provided that, such assignment shall not breach the Swiss Non-Bank Rules.

(c) (4) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Banks, sell participations to one or more Eligible Assignees (“Participants”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment 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, (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, 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 the Loan Documents and (D) the participation does not lead to a breach of the Swiss Non-Bank Rules. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant or requires the approval of all the Lenders. 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 Section 2.17(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(e) shall be delivered solely to the participating Lender) 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 (x) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.18 and 2.19 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section and (y) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted 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(d) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain records of 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 or Revolving Loans 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 or Revolving Loan 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 manifest error, and the Borrower 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, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no 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, 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.

-149-

(e) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, but subject to paragraph (b)(iii) of this Section 9.04, any Lender may assign to one or more special purpose funding vehicles (each, an “SPV”) all or any portion of its funded Loans (without, in the case of Revolving Loans, the corresponding Commitment), without the consent of any Person or the payment of a fee, by execution of a written assignment agreement in a form agreed to by such Lender and such SPV, and may grant any such SPV the option, in such SPV’s sole discretion, to provide the Borrowers all or any part of any Loans that such Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement. Such SPVs shall have all the rights which a Lender making or holding such Loans would have under this Agreement, but no obligations. The Lender making such assignment shall remain liable for all its original obligations under this Agreement, including its Commitment (although the unused portion thereof shall be reduced by the principal amount of any Loans held by an SPV). Notwithstanding such assignment, the Administrative Agent and Borrowers may deliver notices to the Lender making such assignment (as agent for the SPV) and not separately to the SPV unless the Administrative Agent and Borrower Representative are requested in writing by the SPV (or its agent) to deliver such notices separately to it. The Borrowers shall, at the request of any such Lender, execute and deliver to such Person as such Lender may designate, a promissory note in the amount of such Lender’s original promissory note to evidence the Loans of such Lender and related SPV.

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 the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Affiliate 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 hereunder, 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 (other than Banking Services Obligations contingent or indemnity obligations for which no claim has been made) is outstanding and unpaid or any LC Exposure is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 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.

The Administrative Agent or applicable Lender, Issuing Bank or such Affiliate shall notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of such setoff or application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff or application under this Section.

SECTION 9.12 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below) with the same degree of care that it uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than a commercially reasonable degree of care, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its 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), (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable law 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 under this Agreement 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 confidentiality undertakings substantially similar to those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its Related Parties) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or its obligations, (g) on a confidential basis to any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrowers or the Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided for herein, (h) with the consent of the Borrower Representative, or (i) 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 the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers that is not bound by an obligation of confidentiality; provided that, in the case of clause (c) above, the party disclosing such information shall provide to the Borrower Representative prior written notice of such disclosure to the extent permitted by applicable law (and to the extent commercially feasible under the circumstances) and shall cooperate with the Borrower Representative, at the Borrower Representative’s sole expense, in obtaining a protective order for, or other confidential treatment of, such disclosure, in each case at the Borrower Representative’s sole expense. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrowers relating to the Company or any Subsidiary or their businesses or the Collateral, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrowers and other than information pertaining to this Agreement provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrowers after the Effective Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.12 shall not be deemed to prohibit or limit the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or their respective Affiliates to publish, subject to obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), customary advertising material, including any “tombstone”, press release or comparable advertising, on its website or in other marketing materials, relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement using any Loan Party’s name, product photographs, logo, trademark or other insignia.

ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWERS 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 THE COMPANY, THE SUBSIDIARIES AND ITS OTHER AFFILIATES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

SECTION 9.13 Several Obligations; Nonreliance; Violation of Law. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and the failure of any Lender to make any Loan or perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder.

(a) Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the Patriot Act hereby notifies the Borrowers and the Guarantors that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers and the Guarantors, which information includes the names and addresses of the Borrowers and the Guarantors and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers and the Guarantors in accordance with the Patriot Act.

(b) (i) If (A) the introduction of or any change in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or regulation made after the date of this Agreement; (B) any change in the status of a UK Loan Party after the date of this Agreement; (C) a proposed assignment or transfer by a Lender of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a party that is not a Lender prior to such assignment or transfer; or (D) any law, regulation, applicable market guidance or internal policy in relation to the period review and/or updating of customer information obliges the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or, in the case of clause (C) above, any prospective new Lender) to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, each UK Loan Party shall promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (for itself or on behalf of any Lender) or any Lender (for itself or, in the case of the event described in clause (C) above, on behalf of any prospective new Lender) in order for the Administrative Agent, such Lender or, in the case of the event described in clause (C) above, any prospective new Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents; and (ii) each Lender shall promptly upon the request of the supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (for itself) in order for the Administrative Agent to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.15 Appointment for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC, the PPSA or any other applicable law can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.

SECTION 9.16 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) 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 Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 9.17 No Fiduciary Relationship. Each Loan Party, on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, the Loan Parties, the Subsidiaries and their other respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications. The Administrative Agent, 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 the Loan Parties, the Subsidiaries and their other respective Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Loan Parties, the Subsidiaries or their other respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Loan Party hereby agrees not to assert any claims against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their Affiliates based on any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

SECTION 9.18 Intercreditor Agreements.

(a) The Lenders and the Issuing Banks acknowledge that any Other Secured Debt or any Permitted Debt may, to the extent permitted under Section 6.02, be secured by Liens on assets that constitute Collateral and that the relative Lien priority and other creditor rights of the Lender Parties hereunder and the secured parties under such Other Secured Debt or such Permitted Debt will be set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement or another intercreditor agreement reflecting the relative Lien priority required by Section 6.02 (an “Applicable Intercreditor Agreement”). Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby acknowledges that it has received a copy of the form of Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably (a) consents to the subordination of the Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral securing the Secured Obligations on the terms set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement, (b) authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver each Applicable Intercreditor Agreement and any documents relating thereto, in each case on behalf of such Lender or Issuing Bank and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Lender or Issuing Bank, (c) agrees that, upon the execution and delivery thereof, such Lender or Issuing Bank will be bound by the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and each Applicable Intercreditor Agreement as if it were a signatory thereto and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of Intercreditor Agreement and each such Applicable Intercreditor Agreement and (d) agrees that no Lender or Issuing Bank shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of any action taken by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section or in accordance with the terms of Intercreditor Agreement or any Applicable Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby further irrevocably authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent (i) to take such actions as shall be required to release Liens on the Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and any Applicable Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) to enter into such amendments, supplements or other modifications to the Intercreditor Agreement or any Applicable Intercreditor Agreement in connection with any incurrence, extension, renewal, refinancing or replacement of any Secured Obligations or any Other Secured Debt or any Permitted Debt as are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to give effect thereto, in each case on behalf of such Lender or Issuing Bank and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Lender or Issuing Bank, but subject to any consents required pursuant to Section 9.02(b) if applicable. The Administrative Agent shall have the benefit of the provisions of Article VIII with respect to all actions taken by it pursuant to this Section or in accordance with the terms of any Applicable Intercreditor Agreement to the full extent thereof.

(b) The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks acknowledge and agree that, upon the Collateral Designation Date, and at all times thereafter while the Notes Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) remain outstanding and the Intercreditor Agreement is in effect, the Specified Collateral shall be deemed to constitute Notes Priority Collateral instead of ABL Priority Collateral and shall, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, (x) secure such Notes Obligations on a first-priority basis and (y) secure the Secured Obligations on a second-priority basis (at which time, for the avoidance of doubt, the Specified Collateral shall no longer constitute part of any Borrowing Base).

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the Discharge of Notes Obligations (as such term is defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), (i) the requirements of this Agreement to deliver Notes Priority Collateral to, or to establish control of Notes Priority Collateral by, the Administrative Agent shall be deemed satisfied by delivery of such Notes Priority Collateral to, or establishment of control (to the extent only one party can have control) of such Notes Priority Collateral by, the Notes Collateral Agent (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) as bailee for the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement; and (ii) no Loan Party shall be required to take or omit to take any action affirmatively required by any of the provisions of any Loan Documents, or requested by the Administrative Agent, with respect to any Notes Priority Collateral if such action or inaction would be irreconcilably inconsistent with (A) any action or inaction affirmatively requested by the Notes Collateral Agent or (B) any action or inaction affirmatively required by any of the provisions of the documentation governing such Other Secured Debt, with respect to such Notes Priority Collateral.

(a) Each Loan Party acknowledges that, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Act and other applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, government sanction and “know your client” laws in each relevant jurisdiction (collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, “AML Legislation”), the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding the Loan Parties and their respective directors, authorized signing officers and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Loan Party shall promptly provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by any Lender or any prospective assignee or participant of a Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, in order to comply with any applicable AML Legislation, whether now or hereafter in existence.

(b) If the Administrative Agent has ascertained the identity of any Loan Party or any authorized signatories of such Loan Party for the purposes of applicable AML Legislation, then the Administrative Agent:

(i) shall be deemed to have done so as an agent for each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and this Agreement shall constitute a “written agreement” in such regard between such Issuing Bank or such Lender and the Administrative Agent within the meaning of the applicable AML Legislation; and

(ii) shall provide to each Issuing Bank and each Lender copies of all information obtained in such regard without any representation or warranty as to its accuracy or completeness.

(c) Notwithstanding the preceding sentence and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that the Administrative Agent has no obligation to ascertain the identity of the Loan Parties or any authorized signatories of the Loan Parties on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from any Loan Party or any such authorized signatory in doing so.

SECTION 9.21 “Know Your Customer” Checks.

(a) If (i) the introduction of or any change in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or regulation made after the date of this Agreement; (ii) any change in the status of a Loan Party after the date of this Agreement; or (iii) a proposed assignment or transfer by a Lender of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a party that is not a Lender prior to such assignment or transfer, obliges the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or, in the case of clause (iii) above, any prospective new Lender) to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, each Loan Party shall promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (for itself or on behalf of any Lender) or any Lender (for itself or, in the case of the event described in clause (iii) above, on behalf of any prospective new Lender) in order for the Administrative Agent, such Lender or, in the case of the event described in clause (iii) above, any prospective new Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents.

(b) Each Lender shall promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (for itself) in order for the Administrative Agent to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents.

-156-

SECTION 9.22 Judgment Currency. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert an amount due hereunder in the currency in which it is due (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Second Currency”), the rate of exchange applied shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Administrative Agent could purchase the Original Currency with the Second Currency on the date two Business Days preceding that on which judgment is given. Each Loan Party agrees that its obligation in respect of any Original Currency due from it hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment or payment in any Second Currency, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following the date the Administrative Agent receives payment of any sum so adjudged to be due hereunder in the Second Currency, the Administrative Agent may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase, in the New York foreign exchange market, the Original Currency with the amount of the Second Currency so paid; and if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased, or that could have been so purchased, is less than the amount originally due in the Original Currency after any premium and costs of exchange payable in connection with such purchase, each Loan Party agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such payment or judgment to indemnify the Administrative Agent against such loss.

SECTION 9.23 Waiver of Immunity. To the extent that any Loan Party has, or hereafter may be entitled to claim or may acquire, for itself, any Collateral or other assets of the Loan Parties, any immunity (whether sovereign or otherwise) from suit, jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or otherwise) with respect to itself, any Collateral or any other assets of the Loan Parties, such Loan Party hereby waives such immunity in respect of its obligations hereunder and under any promissory notes evidencing the Loans hereunder and any other Loan Document to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, agrees that the waivers set forth in this Section shall be effective to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 (as amended, and together with any successor legislation) and are, and are intended to be, irrevocable for purposes thereof.

SECTION 9.24 Limitations of Enforcement against German Loan Parties.

(a) The Lender Parties agree not to enforce any payment claims, any security, any guarantee and any joint and several liability (including, without limitation, the guarantee and the joint and several liability pursuant to Article XIII of this Agreement) under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents if and to the extent that (i) the relevant payment and/or enforcement proceeds are applied in satisfaction of any liabilities (including guarantees, letters of credit or similar instruments) of the respective German Loan Party’s direct or indirect shareholder(s) or any entity affiliated to such shareholder (verbundenes Unternehmen) within the meaning of section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) (other than the liabilities of any of the respective German Loan Party’s wholly owned subsidiaries and, for the avoidance of doubt, the respective German Loan Party’s own liabilities) and (ii) such payment and/or enforcement under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents would cause the amount of the respective German Loan Party’s net assets (Reinvermögen), as adjusted pursuant to the following provisions, to fall below the amount of its registered share capital (Stammkapital) (Begründung einer Unterbilanz) or to increase any already existing capital impairment (Vertiefung einer Unterbilanz) in violation of sections 30 and 31 of the German Limited Liability Company Act (GmbHG), (each such event is hereinafter referred to as a “Capital Impairment”). For the purposes of this Section 9.24 net assets (Reinvermögen) “net assets” (Reinvermögen) means the assets calculated on the basis of the balance sheet items listed in sections 266 para. 2 A, B, C, D and E of the German Commercial Code (HGB) less all liabilities listed in section 266 para. 3 B, C, D and E of the German Commercial Code (HGB) and less such amounts being subject to a distribution barrier (Ausschüttungssperre) pursuant to section 268 para. 8 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), pursuant to section 253 para. 6 of the German Commercial Code (HGB) or pursuant to section 272 para. 5 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), provided that any deviating specifications made by the Federal High Court (Bundesgerichtshof) for the calculation of the net assets shall be taken into account and that for the purposes of the calculation of the enforceable amount (if any), the following balance sheet items shall be adjusted as follows: (i) the amount of any increase of the respective German Loan Party’s registered share capital after the date of this Agreement that has been effected without prior written consent of the Administrative Agent shall be deducted from the respective German Loan Party’s registered share capital; (ii) loans provided to the respective German Loan Party by any member of the group shall be disregarded if and to the extent such loans are subordinated or are considered subordinated by operation of law and such loans are not shown in the balance sheet as liability of the respective German Loan Party, provided that the creditor of the corresponding receivables could waive such receivables without violating applicable law or any Loan Document; and (iii) loans or other contractual liabilities incurred in violation of the provisions of the Loan Documents shall be disregarded.

(b) Disposal of Relevant Assets. Provided that an enforcement is limited due to the aforementioned provisions, the respective German Loan Party shall dispose of all assets, to the extent legally permitted and commercially justifiable, which are not necessary for its business (nicht betriebsnotwendig) on market terms where the relevant assets are shown in the balance sheet of the respective German Loan Party with a book value which is significantly lower than the market value of such assets.

(c) Management Notification/Auditor’s Determination. The limitation pursuant to this Section 9.24 shall apply, if following a notice by the Administrative Agent that it intends to enforce any payment claims, any security, any guarantee and/or any joint and several liability (including, without limitation, the guarantee and the joint and several liability pursuant to Article XIII of this Agreement) under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the respective German Loan Party notifies the Administrative Agent (“Management Notification”) within ten (10) days upon receipt of the relevant notice that a Capital Impairment would occur (setting out in reasonable detail to what extent a Capital Impairment would occur and providing prima facie evidence that a realization or other measures undertaken in accordance with the mitigation provisions set out above would not prevent such Capital Impairment); if the Management Notification is contested by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall nevertheless be entitled to enforce any payment claims, any security, any guarantee and/or any joint and several liability (including, without limitation, the guarantee and joint and the several liability pursuant to Article XIII of this Agreement) under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents up to such amount, which is, based on the Management Notification, undisputed between itself and the respective German Loan Party. In relation to the amount which is in dispute, the respective German Loan Party undertakes (at its own cost and expense) to arrange for the preparation of a balance sheet by its auditors in order to have such auditors determine whether (and if so, to what extent) any enforcement of payment claims, any security, any guarantee and/or any joint and several liability (including, with-out limitation, the guarantee and joint and the several liability pursuant to Article XIII of this Agreement) under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents would cause a Capital Impairment (the “Auditor’s Determination”). The Auditor’s Determination shall be prepared, taking into account the adjustments set out above in relation to the calculation of a Capital Impairment, by applying the generally accepted accounting principles applicable from time to time in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung) based on the same principles and evaluation methods as consistently applied by the respective German Loan Party in the preparation of its financial statements, in particular in the preparation of its most recent annual balance sheet, and taking into consideration applicable court rulings of German courts. The respective German Loan Party shall provide the Auditor’s Determination to the Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days from the date on which the Administrative Agent contested the Management Notification in writing. The Auditor’s Determination shall be binding on the respective German Loan Party and the Administrative Agent. If, and to the extent that, any payment claims, any security, any guarantee and/or any joint and several liability (including, without limitation, the guarantee and the joint and several liability pursuant to Article XIII of this Agreement) under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents has been enforced without regard to the limitation set forth in Section 9.24(a) because the amount of the available net assets pursuant to the Auditor’s Determination is lower than the amount stated in the Management Notification, the Administrative Agent shall upon written demand of the respective German Loan Party to the Administrative Agent repay any amount (if and to the extent already paid to the Administrative Agent) up to and including the amount calculated in the Auditor’s Determination as of the date the enforcement of any payment claims, any security, any guarantee and/or any joint and several liability (including, without limitation, the guarantee and joint and the several liability pursuant to Article XIII of this Agreement) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document was made. If pursuant to the Auditor’s Determination the amount of the available net assets is higher than set out in the Management Notification, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to enforce into such available net assets accordingly.

(d) Exceptions. Notwithstanding the above, the limitations pursuant to this Section 9.24 shall not apply: (i) if, at the time of the enforcement of payment claims, any security, any guarantee and/or any joint and several liability (including, without limitation, the guarantee and the joint and several liability pursuant to Article XIII) hereunder, the limitations set out in Section 9.24(a) are (due to a change in law or applicable court rulings or otherwise) no longer required in order to protect the managing director(s) of the respective German Loan Party from being personally or criminally liable for such obligation according to section 31 of the German Limited Liability Companies Act (GmbH-Gesetz); or (ii) if the respective German Loan Party is party as dominated entity (beherrschtes Unternehmen) of a domination agreement (Beherrschungsvertrag) and/or a profit and loss transfer agreement (Gewinnabführungsvertrag) pursuant to section 30 para 1 sentence 2 of the German Limited Liability Company Act (GmbHG) (directly or through an unbroken chain of domination and/or profit and loss pooling agreements) with the entity whose liabilities are secured or shall be paid, unless the enforcement of payment claims, any security, any guarantee and/or any joint and several liability (including, without limitation, the guarantee and joint and the several liability pursuant to Article XIII of this Agreement) hereunder or under the other Loan Documents would cause of violation of sections 30, 31 of the German Limited Liability Company Act (GmbHG); or (iii) if the respective German Loan Party has a recourse right (Rückgriffsanspruch) pursuant to section 30 para 1 sentence 2 of the German Limited Liability Company Act (GmbHG), towards its direct or indirect shareholder(s) (upstream) or any entity affiliated to such shareholder (verbundenes Unternehmen) within the meaning of section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) (cross-stream) whose liabilities are secured or shall be paid which is fully recoverable (werthaltig); or (iv) for so long as the respective German Loan Party fails to deliver the Management Notification and/or the Auditor’s Determination pursuant to Section 9.24(c); or (v) to any amounts borrowed under the Loan Documents to the extent the proceeds of such borrowing are on-lent to the respective German Loan Party or its Subsidiaries to the extent that any amounts so on-lent are still outstanding at the time the relevant demand is made against the respective German Loan Party and the repayment of such loans as a result of such on-lending is not prohibited by the Loan Documents or by operation of law; or (vi) if insolvency proceedings have been opened in relation to such German Loan Party and the federal court of justice in Germany (Bundesgerichtshof) has determined that any enforcement of up-stream or cross-stream security and consequential payments no longer cause any personal liability of any managing director of such German Loan Party.

SECTION 9.25 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

SECTION 9.26 Acknowledgment Regarding any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a) in the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

SECTION 9.27 Data Protection Laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, nothing in this Agreement shall oblige the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to provide information of any kind in violation of any applicable data protection laws in force in the jurisdiction of organization of the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable.

U.S. Loan Guarantee

SECTION 10.01 Guarantee. Each U.S. Guarantor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Lender Parties the prompt payment and performance when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Secured Obligations and all reasonable and documented costs and expenses including, without limitation, all court costs and attorneys’ fees and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders in endeavoring to collect all or any part of the Secured Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Obligations (such costs and expenses, together with the Secured Obligations, being collectively called the “U.S. Guaranteed Obligations”). Each U.S. Guarantor further agrees that the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. All terms of this U.S. Guarantee apply to and may be enforced by or on behalf of any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of any Lender or Issuing Bank that extended any portion of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 10.02 Guarantee of Payment. This U.S. Guarantee is a Guarantee of payment and not of collection. Each U.S. Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right to require the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any other Lender Party to sue any Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations (each, a “U.S. Obligated Party”), or to enforce its rights against any collateral securing all or any part of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 10.03 No Discharge or Diminishment of U.S. Guarantee.

(a) Except as otherwise provided for herein, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of each U.S. Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the payment in full in cash of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding affecting any U.S. Obligated Party or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any U.S. Obligated Party; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other right which any U.S. Guarantor may have at any time against any U.S. Obligated Party, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transaction.

(b) The obligations of each U.S. Guarantor hereunder, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any U.S. Obligated Party, of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof.

-160-

(c) Further, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of any U.S. Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any other Lender Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of any Borrower for all or any part of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any other Lender Party with respect to any collateral securing any part of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such U.S. Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any U.S. Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations).

SECTION 10.04 Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each U.S. Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower or the unenforceability of all or any part of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower, other than the payment in full in cash of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each U.S. Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any U.S. Obligated Party or any other Person. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each U.S. Guarantor confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any U.S. Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any U.S. Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such U.S. Guarantor under this U.S. Guarantee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, except to the extent the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each U.S. Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any U.S. Guarantor against any U.S. Obligated Party or any security.

SECTION 10.05 Rights of Subrogation. No U.S. Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against any U.S. Obligated Party, or any Collateral, until the Loan Parties have fully performed all their obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the other Lender Parties.

SECTION 10.06 Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or avoided or must otherwise be restored or returned upon or in connection with the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, each U.S. Guarantor’s obligations under this U.S. Guarantee with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders or the other Lender Parties are in possession of this U.S. Guarantee. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the U.S. Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 10.07 Information. Each U.S. Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrowers’ financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each U.S. Guarantor assumes and incurs under this U.S. Guarantee, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender shall have any duty to advise any U.S. Loan Party of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

-161-

SECTION 10.08 [Reserved].

SECTION 10.09 Maximum U.S. Liability. The provisions of this U.S. Guarantee are severable, and in any action or case or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, any other Insolvency Law or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any U.S. Guarantor under this U.S. Guarantee would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such U.S. Guarantor’s liability under this U.S. Guarantee, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this U.S. Guarantee to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the U.S. Guarantors or the Lenders, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or case or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant U.S. Guarantor’s “Maximum U.S. Liability”). This Section with respect to the Maximum U.S. Liability of each U.S. Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Lenders to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no U.S. Guarantor nor any other Person or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum U.S. Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any U.S. Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each U.S. Guarantor agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum U.S. Liability of each U.S. Guarantor without impairing this U.S. Guarantee or affecting the rights and remedies of the Lenders hereunder; provided that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any U.S. Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum U.S. Liability.

SECTION 10.10 Contribution. In the event any U.S. Guarantor (a “Paying U.S. Loan Party”) shall make any payment or payments under this U.S. Guarantee or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this U.S. Guarantee, each other U.S. Guarantor (each, a “Non-Paying U.S. Loan Party”) shall contribute to such Paying U.S. Loan Party an amount equal to such Non-Paying U.S. Loan Party’s Applicable Share of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying U.S. Loan Party. For purposes of this Section, each Non-Paying U.S. Loan Party’s “Applicable Share”, with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying U.S. Loan Party, shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (a) such Non-Paying U.S. Loan Party’s Maximum U.S. Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying U.S. Loan Party’s Maximum U.S. Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying U.S. Loan Party from the Borrowers after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (b) the aggregate Maximum U.S. Liability of all U.S. Guarantors hereunder (including such Paying U.S. Loan Party) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum U.S. Liability has not been determined for any U.S. Guarantor, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such U.S. Guarantors from the Borrowers after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any U.S. Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations (up to such U.S. Loan Party’s Maximum U.S. Liability). Each of the U.S. Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this U.S. Guarantee from a Non-Paying U.S. Loan Party shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full in cash of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of both the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the U.S. Guarantors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

SECTION 10.11 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each U.S. Guarantor under this Article X is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all other liabilities of each U.S. Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such U.S. Guarantor is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other U.S. Guarantors, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

SECTION 10.12 Benefit to U.S. Guarantors. Each U.S. Guarantor represents and warrants to the Lenders that it expects to derive benefit (and its board of directors or other governing body has determined that it may reasonably be expected to derive benefit), directly and indirectly, from (i) successful operations of each of the Company and its Subsidiaries and (ii) the credit extended by the Lenders to the Borrowers hereunder. Each U.S. Guarantor has determined that execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement with respect to the U.S. Guarantee and any other Loan Documents to be executed by such U.S. Guarantor is within its purpose, will be of direct and indirect benefit to such U.S. Guarantor, and is in its best interest.

ARTICLE XI

Canadian Loan Guaranty

SECTION 11.01 Guarantee. Each Canadian Loan Party hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Lenders, the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Secured Obligations and all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, all court costs and attorneys’ fees and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank and any Lender in endeavoring to collect all or any part of the Secured Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Obligations (such costs and expenses, together with the Secured Obligations, collectively, the “Canadian Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Canadian Guarantor further agrees that the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. All terms of this Canadian Guarantee apply to and may be enforced by or on behalf of any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of any Lender or Issuing Bank that extended any portion of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 11.02 Guarantee of Payment. This Canadian Guarantee is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Canadian Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right to require the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender (each, a “Canadian Obligated Party”) to sue any Canadian Borrower, any Canadian Guarantor, any other guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations, or otherwise to enforce its payment against any collateral securing all or any part of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations. In addition, as an original and independent obligation under this Canadian Guarantee, each Canadian Loan Party shall:

(a) indemnify each Canadian Obligated Party and its successors, endorsees, transferees and assigns and keep the Canadian Obligated Parties indemnified against all costs, losses, expenses and liabilities of whatever kind resulting from the failure by the Canadian Loan Parties or any of them, to make due and punctual payment of any of the Secured Obligations or resulting from any of the Secured Obligations being or becoming void, voidable, unenforceable or ineffective against any Canadian Loan Party (including, but without limitation, all legal and other costs, charges and expenses incurred by each Canadian Obligated Party, or any of them, in connection with preserving or enforcing, or attempting to preserve or enforce, its rights under this Canadian Guarantee); and

(b) pay on demand the amount of such costs, losses, expenses and liabilities whether or not any of the Canadian Obligated Parties has attempted to enforce any rights against any Canadian Loan Party with respect to the Secured Obligations.

SECTION 11.03 No Discharge or Diminishment of Canadian Guarantee.

(a) Except as otherwise provided for herein, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of each Canadian Loan Party hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the payment in full in cash of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Canadian Borrower or any other Canadian Obligated Party liable for any of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding affecting any Canadian Obligated Party or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Canadian Obligated Party; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Canadian Loan Party may have at any time against any Canadian Obligated Party, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, any Lender or any other person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions.

(b) The obligations of each Canadian Loan Party hereunder, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Canadian Obligated Party, of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof.

-163-

(c) Further, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of any Canadian Loan Party hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of the Canadian Borrowers for all or any part of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other Canadian Obligated Party liable for any of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender with respect to any collateral securing any part of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Canadian Loan Party or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Canadian Loan Party as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations).

SECTION 11.04 Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Canadian Loan Party hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Canadian Loan Party or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Canadian Loan Party, other than the payment in full in cash of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Canadian Loan Party irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Canadian Obligated Party, or any other Person. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Canadian Loan Party confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on, or otherwise enforce against, any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Canadian Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Canadian Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Canadian Guarantor under this Canadian Guarantee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, except to the extent the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations have been fully paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Canadian Loan Party waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Canadian Loan Party against any Canadian Obligated Party or any security.

SECTION 11.05 Rights of Subrogation. No Canadian Loan Party will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification, that it has against any Canadian Obligated Party, or any Collateral, until the Canadian Loan Parties have fully performed all their obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders.

SECTION 11.06 Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or avoided or must otherwise be restored or returned upon or in connection with the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Canadian Loan Party or otherwise, each Canadian Loan Party’s obligations under this Canadian Guarantee with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank and the Lenders are in possession of this Canadian Guarantee. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Canadian Loan Party, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Canadian Loan Parties promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent.

-164-

SECTION 11.07 Information. Each Canadian Loan Party assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the other Canadian Loan Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Canadian Loan Party assumes and incurs under this Canadian Guarantee, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall have any duty to advise any Canadian Loan Party of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

SECTION 11.08 Maximum Canadian Liability. In any action or case or proceeding involving any corporate law, or any provincial, territorial, state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or any other Insolvency Law or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Canadian Loan Party under this Canadian Guarantee would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Canadian Loan Party’s liability under this Canadian Guarantee, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Canadian Guarantee to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Canadian Guarantors or the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or case or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Canadian Loan Party’s “Maximum Canadian Liability”. This Section with respect to the Maximum Canadian Liability of each Canadian Loan Party is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Canadian Loan Party nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Canadian Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any Canadian Loan Party hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Canadian Loan Party agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Canadian Liability of each Canadian Loan Party without impairing this Canadian Guarantee or affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders hereunder, provided that, nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Canadian Loan Party’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Canadian Liability.

SECTION 11.09 Contribution.

For purposes of this Article XI, each Non-Paying Canadian Loan Party’s “Applicable Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Canadian Loan Party shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Non-Paying Canadian Loan Party’s Maximum Canadian Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Canadian Loan Party’s Maximum Canadian Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Canadian Loan Party from the other Canadian Loan Parties after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum Canadian Liability of all Canadian Loan Parties hereunder (including such Paying Canadian Loan Party) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Canadian Liability has not been determined for any Canadian Loan Party, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Canadian Loan Parties from the other Canadian Loan Parties after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any Canadian Loan Party’s several liability for the entire amount of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations (up to such Canadian Loan Party’s Maximum Canadian Liability). Each of the Canadian Loan Parties covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Canadian Guarantee from a Non-Paying Canadian Loan Party shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full in cash of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of all of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the Canadian Guarantors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

The liability of each Canadian Loan Party under this Article XI is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Canadian Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Canadian Loan Party is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Canadian Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

Dutch Loan Guaranty

SECTION 12.01 Guarantee. Each Dutch Loan Party hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Lenders, the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Secured Obligations and all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, all court costs and attorneys’ fees and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank and any Lender in endeavoring to collect all or any part of the Secured Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Obligations (such costs and expenses, together with the Secured Obligations, collectively, the “Dutch Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Dutch Guarantor further agrees that the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. All terms of this Dutch Guarantee apply to and may be enforced by or on behalf of any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of any Lender or Issuing Bank that extended any portion of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 12.02 Guarantee of Payment. This Dutch Guarantee is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Dutch Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right to require the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender (each, a “Dutch Obligated Party”) to sue any Dutch Guarantor, any other guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations, or otherwise to enforce its payment against any collateral securing all or any part of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations. In addition, as an original and independent obligation under this Dutch Guarantee, each Dutch Loan Party shall:

(a) indemnify each Dutch Obligated Party and its successors, endorsees, transferees and assigns and keep the Dutch Obligated Parties indemnified against all costs, losses, expenses and liabilities of whatever kind resulting from the failure by the Dutch Loan Parties or any of them, to make due and punctual payment of any of the Secured Obligations or resulting from any of the Secured Obligations being or becoming void, voidable, unenforceable or ineffective against any Dutch Loan Party (including, but without limitation, all legal and other costs, charges and expenses incurred by each Dutch Obligated Party, or any of them, in connection with preserving or enforcing, or attempting to preserve or enforce, its rights under this Dutch Guarantee); and

(b) pay on demand the amount of such costs, losses, expenses and liabilities whether or not any of the Dutch Obligated Parties has attempted to enforce any rights against any Dutch Loan Party with respect to the Secured Obligations.

SECTION 12.03 No Discharge or Diminishment of Dutch Guarantee.

(a) Except as otherwise provided for herein, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of each Dutch Loan Party hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the payment in full in cash of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Dutch Obligated Party liable for any of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding affecting any Dutch Obligated Party or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Dutch Obligated Party; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Dutch Loan Party may have at any time against any Dutch Obligated Party, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, any Lender or any other person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions.

(b) The obligations of each Dutch Loan Party hereunder, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Dutch Obligated Party, of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof.

-166-

(c) Further, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of any Dutch Loan Party hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of the Dutch Loan Parties for all or any part of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other Dutch Obligated Party liable for any of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender with respect to any collateral securing any part of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Dutch Loan Party or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Dutch Loan Party as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations).

SECTION 12.04 Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Dutch Loan Party hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Dutch Loan Party or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Dutch Loan Party, other than the payment in full in cash of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Dutch Loan Party irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Dutch Obligated Party, or any other Person. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Dutch Loan Party confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on, or otherwise enforce against, any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Dutch Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Dutch Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Dutch Guarantor under this Dutch Guarantee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, except to the extent the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations have been fully paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Dutch Loan Party waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Dutch Loan Party against any Dutch Obligated Party or any security.

SECTION 12.05 Rights of Subrogation. No Dutch Loan Party will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification, that it has against any Dutch Obligated Party, or any Collateral, until the Dutch Loan Parties have fully performed all their obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders.

SECTION 12.06 Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or avoided or must otherwise be restored or returned upon or in connection with the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Dutch Loan Party or otherwise, each Dutch Loan Party’s obligations under this Dutch Guarantee with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank and the Lenders are in possession of this Dutch Guarantee. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Dutch Loan Party, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Dutch Loan Parties promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 12.07 Information. Each Dutch Loan Party assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the other Dutch Loan Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Dutch Loan Party assumes and incurs under this Dutch Guarantee, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall have any duty to advise any Dutch Loan Party of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

This Section with respect to the Maximum Dutch Liability of each Dutch Loan Party is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Dutch Loan Party nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Dutch Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any Dutch Loan Party hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Dutch Loan Party agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Dutch Liability of each Dutch Loan Party without impairing this Dutch Guarantee or affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders hereunder, provided that, nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Dutch Loan Party’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Dutch Liability.

For purposes of this Article XIII, each Non-Paying Dutch Loan Party’s “Applicable Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Dutch Loan Party shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Non-Paying Dutch Loan Party’s Maximum Dutch Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Dutch Loan Party’s Maximum Dutch Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Dutch Loan Party from the other Dutch Loan Parties after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum Dutch Liability of all Dutch Loan Parties hereunder (including such Paying Dutch Loan Party) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Dutch Liability has not been determined for any Dutch Loan Party, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Dutch Loan Parties from the other Dutch Loan Parties after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any Dutch Loan Party’s several liability for the entire amount of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations (up to such Dutch Loan Party’s Maximum Dutch Liability). Each of the Dutch Loan Parties covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Dutch Guarantee from a Non-Paying Dutch Loan Party shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full in cash of the Dutch Guaranteed Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of all of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the Dutch Guarantors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

SECTION 12.10 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Dutch Loan Party under this Article XIII is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Dutch Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Dutch Loan Party is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Dutch Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

-172-

(b) The obligations of each Swiss Loan Party hereunder are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Swiss Obligated Party, of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof.

(c) Further, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of any Swiss Loan Party hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of any Swiss Borrower for all or any part of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other Swiss Obligated Party liable for any of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender with respect to any collateral securing any part of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Swiss Loan Party or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Swiss Loan Party as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations).

SECTION 15.04 Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Swiss Loan Party hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Swiss Loan Party or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Swiss Loan Party, other than the payment in full in cash of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Swiss Loan Party irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Swiss Obligated Party, or any other Person. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Swiss Loan Party confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on, or otherwise enforce against, any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Swiss Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Swiss Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Swiss Guarantor under this Swiss Guarantee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, except to the extent the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations have been fully paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Swiss Loan Party waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Swiss Loan Party against any Swiss Obligated Party or any security.

SECTION 15.05 Rights of Subrogation. No Swiss Loan Party will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification, that it has against any Swiss Obligated Party, or any Collateral, until the Swiss Loan Parties have fully performed all their obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders.

SECTION 15.06 Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or avoided or must otherwise be restored or returned upon or in connection with the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Swiss Loan Party or otherwise, each Swiss Loan Party’s obligations under this Swiss Guarantee with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank and the Lenders are in possession of this Swiss Guarantee. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Swiss Loan Party, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Swiss Loan Parties promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent.

-173-

SECTION 15.07 Information. Each Swiss Loan Party assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the other Swiss Loan Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Swiss Loan Party assumes and incurs under this Swiss Guarantee, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall have any duty to advise any Swiss Loan Party of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

SECTION 15.08 Maximum Swiss Liability. In any action or case or proceeding involving any corporate law, or any provincial, territorial, state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, any other Insolvency Law or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Swiss Loan Party under this Swiss Guarantee would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Swiss Loan Party’s liability under this Swiss Guarantee, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Swiss Guarantee to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Swiss Guarantors or the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Swiss Loan Party’s “Maximum Swiss Liability”. This Section with respect to the Maximum Swiss Liability of each Swiss Loan Party is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Swiss Loan Party nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Swiss Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any Swiss Loan Party hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Swiss Loan Party agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Swiss Liability of each Swiss Loan Party without impairing this Swiss Guarantee or affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders hereunder, provided that, nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Swiss Loan Party’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Swiss Liability.

SECTION 15.09 Contribution. In the event any Swiss Loan Party (a “Paying Swiss Loan Party”) shall make any payment or payments under this Swiss Guarantee or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Swiss Guarantee, each other Swiss Loan Party (each, a “Non-Paying Swiss Loan Party”) shall contribute to such Paying Swiss Loan Party an amount equal to such Non-Paying Swiss Loan Party’s “Applicable Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Swiss Loan Party. For purposes of this Article XV, each Non-Paying Swiss Loan Party’s “Applicable Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Swiss Loan Party shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Non-Paying Swiss Loan Party’s Maximum Swiss Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Swiss Loan Party’s Maximum Swiss Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Swiss Loan Party from the other Swiss Loan Parties after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum Swiss Liability of all Swiss Loan Parties hereunder (including such Paying Swiss Loan Party) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Swiss Liability has not been determined for any Swiss Loan Party, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Swiss Loan Parties from the other Swiss Loan Parties after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any Swiss Loan Party’s several liability for the entire amount of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations (up to such Swiss Loan Party’s Maximum Swiss Liability). Each of the Swiss Loan Parties covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Swiss Guarantee from a Non-Paying Swiss Loan Party shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full in cash of the Swiss Guaranteed Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of all of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the Swiss Guarantors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

-174-

SECTION 15.10 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Swiss Loan Party under this Article XV is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Swiss Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Swiss Loan Party is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Swiss Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

SECTION 15.11 Swiss Limitation.

(a) The Swiss Guaranteed Obligations and any other obligation of any Swiss Loan Party under any Loan Document (the “Swiss Guarantor Obligations”) shall be subject to the following limitations:

(i) If and to the extent that a Swiss Guarantor Obligation guarantees or otherwise secures obligations other than obligations of one of the relevant Swiss Loan Parties’ direct or indirect Subsidiaries (i.e. obligations of its respective direct or indirect parent companies (up-stream liabilities) or sister companies (cross-stream liabilities)) (the “Restricted Obligations”) and that performing the relevant Swiss Guarantor Obligation with respect to Restricted Obligations would not be permitted under Swiss corporate law then applicable, then such obligations and payment amount shall from time to time be limited to the amount permitted to be paid under applicable Swiss law; provided that such limited amount shall at no time be less than the relevant Swiss Loan Party’s distributable capital (presently being the balance sheet profits and any reserves available for distribution) at the time or times performance of the relevant Swiss Guarantor Obligation is due or requested from such Swiss Loan Party, and further provided that such limitation (as may apply from time to time or not) shall not (generally or definitively) release the relevant Swiss Loan Party from its Swiss Guarantor Obligations in excess thereof, but merely postpone the payment date therefore until such times as payment is again permitted notwithstanding such limitation.

(ii) In case a Swiss Loan Party who must make a payment in respect of Restricted Obligations under this Agreement is obliged to withhold Swiss Withholding Tax in respect of such payment, such Swiss Loan Party shall:

(A) procure that such payments can be made without deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax, or with deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax at a reduced rate, by discharging the liability to such tax by notification pursuant to applicable law (including double tax treaties) rather than payment of the tax;

(B) if the notification procedure pursuant to sub-paragraph (A) above does not apply, deduct Swiss Withholding Tax at the rate of 35 per cent. (or such other rate as in force from time to time), or if the notification procedure pursuant to sub-paragraph (A) above applies for a part of the Swiss Withholding Tax only, deduct Swiss Withholding Tax at the reduced rate resulting after the discharge of part of such tax by notification under applicable law, from any payment made by it in respect of Restricted Obligations and promptly pay any such taxes to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration (Eidgenössische Steuerverwaltung);

(C) notify the Administrative Agent that such notification, or as the case may be, deduction has been made and provide the Administrative Agent with evidence that such a notification of the Swiss Federal Tax Administration has been made or, as the case may be, such taxes deducted have been paid to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration;

(D) in the case of a deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax:

(1) use its best efforts to ensure that any person other than a Lender Party, which is entitled to a full or partial refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax deducted from such payment in respect of Restricted Obligations, will, as soon as possible after such deduction (y) request a refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax under applicable law (including tax treaties) and (z) pay to the Administrative Agent upon receipt any amounts so refunded; and

-175-

(2) if a Lender Party is entitled to a full or partial refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax deducted from such payment, and if requested by the Administrative Agent, shall provide the Administrative Agent (on its behalf or on behalf of any Lender Party) those documents that are required by law and applicable tax treaties to be provided by the payer of such tax, for each relevant Lender Party, to prepare a claim for refund of Swiss Withholding Tax.

(iii) If a Swiss Loan Party is obliged to withhold Swiss Withholding Tax in accordance with Section 15.11(a)(ii) above, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to further enforce the Swiss Guarantor Obligation assumed by such Swiss Loan Party and apply proceeds therefrom against the Restricted Obligations up to an amount which is equal to that amount which would have been obtained if no withholding of Swiss Withholding Tax were required, whereby such further enforcements shall always be limited to the maximum amount of the freely distributable reserves of such Swiss Guarantor as set out in Section 15.11(a)(i) above. However, the Swiss Guarantor shall not be obliged to gross-up or indemnify (or otherwise hold harmless) a Lender Party (other than pursuant to Section 2.13(o)) in relation to any deduction and payment to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration of Swiss Withholding Tax in accordance with Section 15.11(a)(ii) above if such gross-up or indemnification is illegal. In case the proceeds irrevocably received by the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties pursuant to Section 15.11(a)(ii)(D)(2) (refund) above and this paragraph (additional enforcements) have the effect that the proceeds received by the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties exceed the Secured Obligations, then the Administrative Agent or the relevant other Lender Party shall return such overcompensation to the relevant Swiss Loan Party.

(iv) For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 15.11(a) shall not limit a Swiss Loan Party’s obligations under Section 2.13(o).

(b) If and to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent and if and to the extent this is from time to time required under Swiss law (restricting profit distributions), in order to allow the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties to obtain a maximum benefit under this Agreement and any other Loan Document, as applicable, the relevant Swiss Loan Party shall, and any parent company of such Swiss Loan Party being a party to this Agreement shall procure that such Swiss Loan Party will, promptly implement all such measures and/or to promptly procure the fulfilment of all prerequisites allowing the prompt fulfilment of the Swiss Guarantor Obligations and allowing the relevant Swiss Loan Party to promptly perform its obligations and make the (requested) payment(s) hereunder from time to time, including the following:

(i) preparation of an up-to-date audited balance sheet of the relevant Swiss Loan Party;

(ii) confirmation of the auditors of the relevant Swiss Loan Party that the relevant amount represents (the maximum of) freely distributable capital of the relevant Swiss Loan Party;

(iii) approval by a shareholders meeting of the relevant Swiss Loan Party of the capital distribution;

(iv) if the enforcement of Restricted Obligations would be limited due to the effects referred to in this clause, then the relevant Swiss Loan Party shall to the extent permitted by applicable law write up or realize any of its assets that are shown in its balance sheet with a book value that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets, in case of realization, however, only if such assets are not necessary for the relevant Swiss Loan Party’s business (nicht betriebsnotwendig); and

(v) all such other measures necessary or useful to allow payment under the Swiss Guarantor Obligation and to allow the relevant Swiss Loan Party to make the payments and perform the obligations agreed hereunder with a minimum of limitations.

ARTICLE XVI

UK Loan Guaranty

SECTION 16.01 Guarantee. Each UK Loan Party hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Lenders, following the failure of another Loan Party to pay any amount when due, the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Secured Obligations and all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, all court costs and attorneys’ fees and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank and any Lender in endeavoring to collect all or any part of the Secured Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Obligations (such costs and expenses, together with the Secured Obligations, collectively, the “UK Guaranteed Obligations”). Each UK Guarantor further agrees that the UK Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. All terms of this UK Guarantee apply to and may be enforced by or on behalf of any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of any Lender or Issuing Bank that extended any portion of the UK Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 16.02 Guarantee of Payment. This UK Guarantee is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each UK Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right to require the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender (each, a “UK Obligated Party”) to sue any UK Guarantor, any other guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the UK Guaranteed Obligations, or otherwise to enforce its payment against any collateral securing all or any part of the UK Guaranteed Obligations. In addition, as an original and independent obligation under this UK Guarantee, each UK Loan Party shall:

(a) indemnify each UK Obligated Party and its successors, endorsees, transferees and assigns and keep the UK Obligated Parties indemnified against all costs, losses, expenses and liabilities of whatever kind resulting from the failure by the UK Loan Parties or any of them, to make due and punctual payment of any of the Secured Obligations or resulting from any of the Secured Obligations being or becoming void, voidable, unenforceable or ineffective against any UK Loan Party (including, but without limitation, all legal and other costs, charges and expenses incurred by each UK Obligated Party, or any of them, in connection with preserving or enforcing, or attempting to preserve or enforce, its rights under this UK Guarantee); and

(b) pay on demand the amount of such costs, losses, expenses and liabilities whether or not any of the UK Obligated Parties has attempted to enforce any rights against any UK Loan Party with respect to the Secured Obligations.

SECTION 16.03 No Discharge or Diminishment of UK Guarantee.

(a) Except as otherwise provided for herein, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of each UK Loan Party hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the payment in full of the UK Guaranteed Obligations), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the UK Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any UK Obligated Party liable for any of the UK Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding affecting any UK Obligated Party or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any UK Obligated Party; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any UK Loan Party may have at any time against any UK Obligated Party, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, any Lender or any other person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions.

(b) The obligations of each UK Loan Party hereunder, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the UK Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any UK Obligated Party, of the UK Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof.

-177-

(c) Further, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of any UK Loan Party hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the UK Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the UK Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for or any obligations of any UK Obligated Party liable for any of the UK Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender with respect to any collateral securing any part of the UK Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the UK Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such UK Loan Party or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any UK Loan Party as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full of the UK Guaranteed Obligations).

SECTION 16.04 Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each UK Loan Party hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any UK Loan Party or the unenforceability of all or any part of the UK Guaranteed Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any UK Loan Party, other than the payment in full of the UK Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each UK Loan Party irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any UK Obligated Party, or any other Person. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each UK Loan Party confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on, or otherwise enforce against, any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the UK Guaranteed Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the UK Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any UK Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any UK Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such UK Guarantor under this UK Guarantee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, except to the extent the UK Guaranteed Obligations have been fully paid. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each UK Loan Party waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any UK Loan Party against any UK Obligated Party or any security.

SECTION 16.05 Rights of Subrogation. No UK Loan Party will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification, that it has against any UK Obligated Party, or any Collateral, until the UK Loan Parties have fully performed all their obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders.

SECTION 16.06 Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the UK Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or avoided or must otherwise be restored or returned upon or in connection with the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any UK Loan Party or otherwise, each UK Loan Party’s obligations under this UK Guarantee with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank and the Lenders are in possession of this UK Guarantee. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the UK Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any UK Loan Party, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the UK Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the UK Loan Parties promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 16.07 Information. Each UK Loan Party assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the other UK Loan Parties’ financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the UK Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each UK Loan Party assumes and incurs under this UK Guarantee, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall have any duty to advise any UK Loan Party of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

-178-

SECTION 16.08 Maximum UK Liability. In any action or case or proceeding involving any corporate law, or any provincial, territorial, state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, any other Insolvency Law or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any UK Loan Party under this UK Guarantee would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such UK Loan Party’s liability under this UK Guarantee, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this UK Guarantee to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the UK Guarantors or the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant UK Loan Party’s “Maximum UK Liability”. This Section with respect to the Maximum UK Liability of each UK Loan Party is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no UK Loan Party nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum UK Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any UK Loan Party hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each UK Loan Party agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the UK Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum UK Liability of each UK Loan Party without impairing this UK Guarantee or affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders hereunder, provided that, nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any UK Loan Party’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum UK Liability.

SECTION 16.09 Contribution. In the event any UK Loan Party (a “Paying UK Loan Party”) shall make any payment or payments under this UK Guarantee or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this UK Guarantee, each other UK Loan Party (each, a “Non-Paying UK Loan Party”) shall contribute to such Paying UK Loan Party an amount equal to such Non-Paying UK Loan Party’s “Applicable Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying UK Loan Party. For purposes of this Article XVI, each Non-Paying UK Loan Party’s “Applicable Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying UK Loan Party shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Non-Paying UK Loan Party’s Maximum UK Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying UK Loan Party’s Maximum UK Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying UK Loan Party from the other UK Loan Parties after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum UK Liability of all UK Loan Parties hereunder (including such Paying UK Loan Party) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum UK Liability has not been determined for any UK Loan Party, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such UK Loan Parties from the other UK Loan Parties after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any UK Loan Party’s several liability for the entire amount of the UK Guaranteed Obligations (up to such UK Loan Party’s Maximum UK Liability). Each of the UK Loan Parties covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this UK Guarantee from a Non-Paying UK Loan Party shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full in cash of the UK Guaranteed Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of all of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the UK Guarantors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

SECTION 16.10 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each UK Loan Party under this Article XVI is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each UK Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such UK Loan Party is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other UK Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

The Borrower Representative

SECTION 17.01 Appointment; Nature of Relationship.
