9. REPAYMENT AND PREPAYMENT OF SWINGLINE LOANS

9.1 Repayment

9.1.1 A Swingline Borrower shall repay each Swingline Loan on the last day of its Interest Period.

9.1.2 If a Swingline Loan is not repaid in full on its due date, the Swingline Agent shall (if requested to do so in writing by any affected Swingline Lender) set a date (the “Loss Sharing Date”) on which payments shall be made between the Facility A Lenders to re-distribute the unpaid amount between them. The Swingline Agent shall give at least three (3) Business Days prior notice to each affected Facility A Lender of the Loss Sharing Date and notify it of the amounts to be paid or received by it.

- 34 -

9.1.3 On the Loss Sharing Date each Facility A Lender must pay to the Swingline Agent its Proportion of the Unpaid Amount minus its (or its Affiliate’s) Unpaid Swingline Participation (if any). If this produces a negative figure for a Facility A Lender no amount need be paid by that Facility A Lender.

The “Proportion” of a Facility A Lender means the proportion borne by:

(a) its Facility A Commitment (or, if the Total Commitments are then zero, its Facility A Commitment immediately prior to their reduction to zero) minus the Base Currency Amount of its participation (or that of a Facility A Lender which is its Affiliate) in any outstanding Facility A Loans (but ignoring its (or its Affiliate’s) participation in the unpaid Swingline Loan); to

The “Unpaid Swingline Participation” of a Facility A Lender means that part of the Unpaid Amount (if any) owed to that Facility A Lender (or its Affiliate) (before any redistribution under this Clause 9.1 (Repayment)).

9.1.4 Out of the funds received by the Swingline Agent pursuant to paragraph 9.1.3 the Swingline Agent shall pay to each Swingline Lender an amount equal to the Shortfall (if any) of that Swingline Lender where:

The “Shortfall” of a Swingline Lender is an amount equal to its Unpaid Swingline Participation minus its (or its Affiliate’s) Proportion of the Unpaid Amount.

9.1.5 If the amount actually received by the Swingline Agent from the Facility A Lenders is insufficient to pay the full amount of the Shortfall of all Swingline Lenders then the amount actually received will be distributed amongst the Swingline Lenders pro rata to the Shortfall of each Swingline Lender.

9.1.6

(a) On a payment under this Clause, the paying Facility A Lender will be subrogated to the rights of the Swingline Lenders which have shared in the payment received, which Swingline Lenders agree that they will in that connection waive the benefit of Article 1252 of the French Code Civil.

(b) If and to the extent a paying Facility A Lender is not able to rely on its rights under paragraph 9.1.6(a) above, the relevant Swingline Borrower shall be liable to the paying Facility A Lender for a debt equal to the amount the paying Facility A Lender has paid under this Clause.

9.3.2 The Swingline Agent shall promptly notify the Swingline Lenders and the relevant Swingline Borrower of the determination of the rate of interest under paragraph 9.3.1 above.

9.3.3 If any day during an Interest Period is not a New York Business Day, the rate of interest on a Swingline Loan on that day will be the rate applicable to the immediately preceding New York Business Day.

9.3.4 The relevant Swingline Borrower shall pay accrued interest on each Swingline Loan made to it on the last day of its Interest Period.

9.4 Interest Period

Each Swingline Loan has one (1) Interest Period only.

9.5 Conditions of assignment or transfer

Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, each Facility A Lender shall ensure that at all times its Overall Commitment is not less than:

(a) its Swingline Commitment; or

(b) if it does not have a Swingline Commitment, the Swingline Commitment of a Swingline Lender which is its Affiliate.

10.2.2 a Lender notifies the Agent that compliance with its obligation to participate in a Loan in the proposed Optional Currency would contravene a law or regulation applicable to it,

the Agent will give notice to the relevant Borrower to that effect by the Specified Time on that day. In this event, any Lender that gives notice pursuant to this Clause 10.2 (Unavailability of a currency) will be required to participate in the Loan in the Base Currency (in an amount equal to that Lender’s proportion of the Base Currency Amount) and its participation will be treated as a separate Loan denominated in the Base Currency during that Interest Period.

- 38 -

11.1.3 Subject to any applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law or regulation, at any time when a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender:

(b) the maturity date of the Separate Loans will be automatically extended to the Termination Date, provided that every six Months from the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the conditions in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Clause 4.2 (Further conditions precedent) in respect of each Borrower are satisfied, failing which the Separate Loans shall be fully repaid within three (3) Business Days by such Borrower.

11.1.4 A Borrower to whom a Separate Loan is outstanding may prepay that Loan by giving four (4) Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent. The Agent will forward a copy of a prepayment notice received in accordance with this Clause 11.4 to the Defaulting Lender concerned as soon as practicable on receipt.

11.1.5 Interest in respect of a Separate Loan will accrue for successive Interest Periods selected by the Borrower by the time and date specified by the Agent (acting reasonably) and will be payable by that Borrower to the Defaulting Lender on the last day of each Interest Period of that Loan.

11.1.6 The terms of this Agreement relating to Facility A Loans generally shall continue to apply to Separate Loans other than to the extent inconsistent with Clauses 11.1.3 to 11.1.5 above, in which case those Clauses shall prevail in respect of any Separate Loan.

SECTION 5

COSTS OF UTILISATION

13. INTEREST

13.1 Calculation of interest

The rate of interest on each Loan for each Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable:

(a) Margin;

(b) LIBOR or, in relation to any Loan in euro, EURIBOR; and

(c) Mandatory Cost, if any.

13.2 Payment of interest

The Borrower to which a Loan has been made shall pay accrued interest on that Loan on the last day of its Interest Period (and, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the dates falling at six-monthly intervals after the first day of the Interest Period).

13.3 Default interest

13.3.1 If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue to the fullest extent permitted by law on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which, subject to paragraph 13.3.2 below, is one per cent (1%) higher than the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Loan in the currency of the overdue amount for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 13.3 shall be immediately payable by the Obligor on demand by the Agent.

13.3.2 If any overdue amount consists of all or part of a Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that Loan:

(a) the first Interest Period for that overdue amount shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period relating to that Loan; and

(b) the rate of interest applying to the overdue amount during that first Interest Period shall be one per cent (1%) higher than the rate which would have applied if the overdue amount had not become due.

13.3.3 Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded with the overdue amount only if, within the meaning of Article 1154 of the French Code Civil, such interest is due for a period of at least one (1) year, but will remain immediately due and payable.

- 47 -

13.4 Notification of rates of interest

The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the relevant Borrower of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement.

13.5 Effective Global Rate (Taux Effectif Global)

For the purposes of Articles L.313-1 et seq. R313-1 and R313-2 of the Code de la Consommation (if applicable), the Parties acknowledge that by virtue of certain characteristics of the Facilities (and in particular the variable interest rate applicable to Loans and the Borrower’s right to select the currency and the duration of the Interest Period for each Loan) the taux effectif global cannot be calculated at the date of this Agreement. However, the Original Borrowers acknowledge that they have received from the Agent a letter containing an indicative calculation of the taux effectif global, based on figured examples calculated on assumptions as to the taux de période and durée de période set out in the letter. The Parties acknowledge that that letter forms part of this Agreement.

14. INTEREST PERIODS

14.1 Selection of Interest Periods

14.1.1 A Borrower may select an Interest Period for a Loan in the Utilisation Request for that Loan.

14.1.2 Subject to this Clause 14 (Interest Periods), a Borrower may select an Interest Period of one (1), two (2), three (3) or six (6) Months or any other period agreed between the Company and the Agent (acting on the instructions of all the Lenders).

14.1.4 A Loan has one (1) Interest Period only.

15. CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST

15.1 Absence of quotations

Subject to Clause 15.2 (Market disruption), if LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Reference Banks but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by noon (12.00 p.m.) Paris time on the Quotation Day, the applicable LIBOR or EURIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks.

- 48 -

If the relevant Borrower does not so notify the Agent, then the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of that Loan for the Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of:

(a) the Margin;

(b) the rate notified to the Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable and in any event before interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in that Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select;

(c) the Mandatory Cost, if any, applicable to that Lender’s participation in the Loan.

15.2.2 In this Agreement “Market Disruption Event” means:

(a) at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period the Screen Rate is not available and none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a rate to the Agent to determine LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR for the relevant currency and Interest Period; or

(b) before close of business in Paris on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose aggregate participation in a Loan exceeds fifty per cent (50%) of that Loan) that the cost to it or to them of obtaining matching deposits in the Relevant Interbank Market would be in excess of LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR.

15.2.3 Alternative basis of interest or funding

(a) If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Agent or the Company so requires, the Agent and the Company shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty (30) days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest.

(b) Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph 15.2.1 above shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and the Company, be binding on all Parties.

15.2.4 The Agent shall promptly, and in any event no later than 10.00 a.m. Paris time on the Business Day following the relevant Quotation Day, notify AXA and the relevant Borrower of the occurrence of a Market Disruption Event.

SECTION 9

CHANGES TO PARTIES

33. CHANGES TO THE LENDERS

33.1 Assignments and transfers by the Lenders

33.1.1 Subject to this Clause 33, a Lender (the “Existing Lender”) may only:

(a) assign any of its rights to;

(b) transfer any of its rights (including such as relate to that Lender’s participation in each Utilisation) and obligations to; or

(c) enter into any sub-participation agreement in respect of any of its rights and obligations with,

another bank or financial institution (the “New Lender”). Such a transfer of its rights and obligations in respect of Facility A must (if it does not relate to the full amount of its Commitment) relate to an integral multiple of ten million euro (EUR 10,000,000) which is at least twenty million euro (EUR 20,000,000).

33.1.2 Any such transfer by a Lender of all or, as the case may be, part of its Facility A Commitment must relate to all or, as the case may be, a corresponding pro rata part of its Swingline Commitments or (if it is not itself a Swingline Lender) be accompanied by a transfer of all or, as the case may be, a corresponding pro rata part of the Swingline Commitment of its Affiliate.

33.1.3 A Facility A Lender may not (for the avoidance of doubt) transfer all or any part of any of its rights and obligations as an L/C Lender separately from a transfer of its Facility A Commitment (or a corresponding part thereof).

33.1.4 An L/C Lender may only assign or transfer its rights and obligations as an L/C Lender to a New Lender that is a “qualified bank” within the meaning of the New York Insurance Department Regulation 133, , 11 N.Y.C.R.R. pt. 79, as amended from time to time.

33.1.5 The consent of the Finance Parties is hereby given to a transfer by an Existing Lender to a New Lender.

33.2 Conditions of assignment or transfer

33.2.1 The consent of the Company is required for an assignment, transfer or sub-participation by a Lender but the Company hereby consents to an assignment, transfer or sub-participation to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, provided that such Affiliate is an Acceptable Bank and further provided that such transfer would not cause the Company or the Borrowers to incur Increased Costs under Clause 18.1 (Increased Costs).

Notwithstanding the above, no assignment, transfer, sub-participation or subcontracting (including a transfer of Facility Office) in relation to a

- 77 -

Utilisation by a Borrower established in France may be effected to a New Lender incorporated, domiciled or acting through a Facility Office situated in a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction without prior consent of the Company.

33.2.2 The consent of the Company to an assignment, transfer or sub-participation must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Company will be deemed to have given its consent ten (10) Business Days after the Lender has requested it unless consent is expressly refused by the Company within that time. The Company shall be considered to be reasonable in refusing consent if, inter alia, such transfer would cause the Company or the Borrowers to incur additional costs under the Facility (including pursuant to Clause 18.1 (Increased Costs)).

33.2.3 A transfer will only be effective if (i) the procedure set out in Clause 33.5 (Procedure for transfer) is complied with and (ii) the Agent has performed all “know your customer” or other checks relating to any person that it is required to carry out in relation to such transfer to a New Lender, the completion of which the Agent shall promptly notify to the Existing Lender and the New Lender.

33.2.4 If:

(a) a Lender assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents, or changes its Facility Office; and

(b)

(i) as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, an Obligor would be obliged to make a payment under Clause 17 (Tax gross-up and indemnities) or Clause 18 (Increased Costs) to the New Lender or to the Lender acting through its new Facility Office; or

(ii) in the case of an assignment or transfer to an Affiliate of the Lender, as a result of circumstances existing at the date of the assignment or transfer or at any time following the assignment or transfer, an Obligor would be obliged to make a payment under Clause 18 (Increased Costs) to the New Lender or to the Lender acting through its new Facility Office,

then the New Lender or the Lender acting through its new Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under those Clauses to the same extent as the Existing Lender or the Lender acting through its previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred.

33.3 Assignment or transfer fee

The New Lender shall, on the date upon which an assignment or transfer takes effect, pay to the Agent (for its own account) a fee of two thousand euro (EUR 2,000).

- 78 -

33.4 Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders

33.4.1 Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, an Existing Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility to a New Lender for:

(a) the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of the Finance Documents or any other documents;

(b) the financial condition of any Obligor;

(c) the performance and observance by any Obligor of its obligations under the Finance Documents or any other documents; or

(d) the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Finance Document or any other document,

and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded.

33.4.2 Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Finance Parties that it:

(a) has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender in connection with any Finance Document; and

(b) will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its related entities whilst any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force.

33.4.3 Nothing in any Finance Document obliges an Existing Lender to:

(a) accept a re-transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 33 (Changes to the Lenders); or

(b) support any losses directly or indirectly incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by any Obligor of its obligations under the Finance Documents or otherwise.

33.5 Procedure for transfer

33.5.1 Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 33.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer) a transfer is effected in accordance with paragraph 33.5.3 below when the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Transfer Agreement appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Transfer Agreement.

- 79 -

33.5.2 The Agent shall only be obliged to execute a Transfer Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender upon its completion of all “know your customer” or other checks relating to any person that it is required to carry-out in relation to the transfer to such New Lender.

33.5.3 By virtue of the execution of a Transfer Agreement, as from the Transfer Date:

(a) to the extent that in the Transfer Agreement the Existing Lender seeks to transfer its rights and obligations under the Finance Documents, the Existing Lender shall be discharged to the extent provided for in the Transfer Agreement from further obligations towards each of the Obligors and the other Finance Parties under the Finance Documents;

(b) the rights and obligations of the Existing Lender with respect to the Obligors shall be transferred to the New Lender, to the extent provided for in the Transfer Agreement;

(c) the Agent, the Arrangers, the New Lender and other Lenders shall have the same rights and obligations between themselves as they would have had had the New Lender been an Original Lender with the rights and/or obligations to which it is entitled and subject as a result of the transfer and to that extent the Agent, the Arrangers and the Existing Lender shall each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and

(d) the New Lender shall become a Party as a “Lender”.

33.5.4 The Agent shall notify the Company if a Lender has effected a transfer to another Lender or to an Affiliate of a Lender pursuant to Clause 33.2.1 above

33.5.5 The Agent, acting solely for these purposes as an agent of the Borrowers, will maintain (and make available for inspection by the Borrowers and the Lenders upon reasonable prior notice at reasonable times) a register for the recordation of, and will record, the names and addresses of the Lenders and the respective amounts of the Commitments and Loans of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). Absent manifest error, the entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes and the Borrowers, the Agent, and the Lenders shall, absent manifest error, treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.

34. SECURITY OVER LENDERS’ RIGHTS

In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under Clause 33 (Changes to the Lenders), each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from any Obligor, at any time charge, assign or otherwise create Security in or over (whether by way of collateral or otherwise) all or any of its rights under any Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender including, without limitation:

(a) any charge, assignment or other Security to secure its obligations to a federal reserve or central bank or equivalent body (including the SFEF (Société de financement de l’économie française)); and

- 80 -

(b) in the case of any Lender which is a fund, any charge, assignment or other Security granted to any holders (or trustee or representatives of holders) of obligations owed, or securities issued, by that Lender as Security for those obligations or securities,

except that no such charge, assignment or Security shall:

(i) release a Lender from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute the beneficiary of the relevant charge, assignment or Security for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or

(ii) require any payments to be made by an Obligor other than or in excess of, or grant to any person any more extensive rights than, those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under the Finance Documents.

35. PRO RATA INTEREST SETTLEMENT

If the Agent has notified the Lenders that it is able to distribute interest payments on a “pro rata basis” to Existing Lenders and New Lenders then (in respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause 33.5 (Procedure for transfer) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is after the date of such notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period):

(a) any interest or fees in respect of the relevant participation which are expressed to accrue by reference to the lapse of time shall continue to accrue in favour of the Existing Lender up to but excluding the Transfer Date (“Accrued Amounts”) and shall become due and payable to the Existing Lender (without further interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current Interest Period (or, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the next of the dates which falls at six Monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period); and

(b) the rights assigned or transferred by the Existing Lender will not include the right to the Accrued Amounts so that, for the avoidance of doubt:

(i) when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable for the account of the Existing Lender; and

(ii) the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 35, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.

- 81 -

That Lender will comply with any such requirement by executing and submitting for execution by the bank or financial institution so designated a Transfer Agreement with a proposed Transfer Date corresponding to the date specified by the Company when it designated the transferee, but shall not be obliged to do so if, in its opinion (acting reasonably), that might be prejudicial to it or if it is not satisfied that it will on the Transfer Date receive from the transferee the full amount of its participation in any Loans then outstanding plus interest accrued and unpaid on those Loans as at the Transfer Date and of any amount then payable to it under Clause 7.2 (Claims under a Letter of Credit), and from the Company an amount equal to that of the Break Costs to which it would have been entitled on that date had the Loans outstanding then been repaid together with all other amounts due and owing to the relevant Lender under the Finance Documents.

49.4 Disenfranchisement of Defaulting Lenders

(a) In ascertaining the Majority Lenders or whether any given percentage (including, for the avoidance of doubt, unanimity) of the Total Commitments has been obtained to approve any request for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote under the Finance Documents, any Defaulting Lender’s Commitments will be disregarded.

(b) For the purposes of this Clause 49.4, the Agent may assume that the following Lenders are Defaulting Lenders:

(i) any Lender which has notified the Agent that it has become a Defaulting Lender; and

(ii) any Lender in relation to which it is aware that any of the events or circumstances referred to in paragraphs (a) or (b) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender” has occurred,

unless it has received notice to the contrary from the Lender concerned (together with any supporting evidence reasonably requested by the Agent) or the Agent is otherwise aware that the Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender.

49.5 Replacement of a Defaulting Lender

(a) The Company may, at any time a Lender has become and continues to be a Defaulting Lender, by giving ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent and such Lender:

(i) replace such Lender by requiring such Lender to (and such Lender shall) transfer pursuant to Clause 33 (Changes to the Lenders) all (and not part only) of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; or

- 103 -

(ii) require such Lender to (and such Lender shall) transfer pursuant to Clause 33 (Changes to the Lenders) all (and not part only) of the undrawn Commitment of the Lender,

to a Lender or Affiliate of a Lender (a “Replacement Lender”) selected by the Company, and which (unless the Agent is an Impaired Agent) is acceptable to the Agent (acting reasonably), which confirms its willingness to assume and does assume all the obligations or all the relevant obligations of the transferring Lender (including the assumption of the transferring Lender’s participations or unfunded participations (as the case may be) on the same basis as the transferring Lender) for a purchase price in cash payable at the time of transfer equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s participation in the outstanding Utilisations and all accrued interest (to the extent that the Agent has not given a notification under Clause 24.9 (Pro rata interest settlement)), Break Costs and other amounts payable in relation thereto under the Finance Documents.

(b) Any transfer of rights and obligations of a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Clause shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) the Company shall have no right to replace the Agent;

(ii) neither the Agent nor the Defaulting Lender shall have any obligation to the Company to find a Replacement Lender;

(iii) the transfer must take place no later than thirty (30) days after the notice referred to in paragraph (a) above; and

(iv) in no event shall the Defaulting Lender be required to pay or surrender to the Replacement Lender any of the fees received by the Defaulting Lender pursuant to the Finance Documents.

SCHEDULE 4

MANDATORY COST FORMULAE

1. The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank.

2. On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

3. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.

4. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Agent as follows:

(a) in relation to a sterling Loan:

(b) in relation to a Loan in any currency other than sterling:

Where:

A is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.

B is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Margin and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of interest specified in paragraph 13.3.1 of Clause 13.3 (Default interest)) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan.

- 120 -

C is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

D is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits.

E is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in sterling per one million sterling (£1,000,000).

5. For the purposes of this Schedule:

(a) “Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

(b) “Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Fees Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

(c) “Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and

(d) “Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.

6. In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. five per cent (5%) will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places.

7. If requested by the Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in sterling per one million sterling (£1,000,000) of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

8. Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:

(b) any other information that the Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

(c) Each Lender shall promptly notify the Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

9. The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office.

10. The Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects.

11. The Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above.

12. Any determination by the Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

13. The Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Company and the Lenders, determine and notify to all Parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

U.S. BORROWER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

1. Representations

1.1 ERISA Plans

(a) There are no Multiemployer Plans.

(b) Each Employee Plan and any related trust intended to qualify under Code Section 401 or 501 has been determined by the IRS to be so qualified and to the best knowledge of the U.S. Borrower nothing has occurred which would reasonably be expected to cause the loss of such qualification.

(c) None of the U.S. Borrower, or any of its subsidiaries, with respect to any Employee Plan, has failed to make any contribution or pay any amount due as required by Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA or the terms of any such plan, and all required contributions and benefits have been paid in accordance with the provisions of each such plan except to the extent it would not have or would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) There are no pending or, to the knowledge of the U.S. Borrower, threatened claims, actions or proceedings (other than claims for benefits in the normal course), relating to any Employee Plan other than those that in the aggregate, if adversely determined, would have no Material Adverse Effect.

(e) There exists no Unfunded Pension Liability with respect to any Employee Plan, except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) No ERISA Event has occurred, and there has been no breach of paragraph 1.2 (Compliance with ERISA) of Schedule 13 (U.S. Borrower General Undertakings), as a result of which the liability of a U.S. Borrower or subsidiaries of a U.S. Borrower which are ERISA Affiliates (either individually or in the aggregate) related to such ERISA Event or breaches, individually or when aggregated with all other ERISA Events and all such breaches, would have or would be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

1.2 Federal Reserve Regulations

(a) No U.S. Borrower is engaged nor will it engage principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of owning or extending credit for the purpose of “buying” or “carrying” any Margin Stock.

(b) None of the proceeds of the Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement will be used by AXA Financial or its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any Margin Stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness that was originally incurred to buy or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose which might cause

- 140 -

all or any Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation U or Regulation X.

(c) No U.S. Borrower or any agent acting on its behalf has taken or will take any action which might cause the Finance Documents to violate any regulation of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States.

(b) allow, or permit any of its subsidiaries which are ERISA Affiliates to allow, (i) an aggregate amount of Unfunded Pension Liability among all Employee Plans (taking into account only Employee Plans with positive Unfunded Pension Liability) or (ii) any potential withdrawal liability under Section 4201 of ERISA, if the Company or its subsidiaries which are ERISA Affiliates were to completely or partially withdraw from all Multiemployer Plans; to the extent that any of the events described in (i) or (ii) could have a Material Adverse Effect; or

(c) fail, or permit any of its subsidiaries which are ERISA Affiliates to fail, to comply in any material respect with ERISA or the related provisions of the Code, if any such non-compliance, singly or in the aggregate, would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

1.3 Compliance with U.S. Regulations

No U.S. Borrower shall become an “investment company,” or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company,” as such terms are defined in the 1940 Act. Neither the making of any Loan, or the application of the proceeds or repayment of any Loan by any U.S. Borrower nor the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement will violate any provision of the 1940 Act or any rule, regulation or order of the SEC under the 1940 Act. No U.S. Borrower will directly or indirectly lend, or otherwise make available, any portion of the proceeds of any Loan to any person who is an “investment company” (as that term is defined in the 1940 Act) that is subject to regulation under the 1940 Act.
