SECTION 1.06. Certain Calculations. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of the Loan Documents under a specific covenant that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including a test based on the Interest Coverage Ratio, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and/or the Total Net Leverage Ratio) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Basket Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of the Loan Documents under the same covenant that requires compliance with a financial ratio or test (including a test based on the Interest Coverage Ratio, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and/or the Total Net Leverage Ratio) (any such amounts, the “Incurrence-Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that (a) the Fixed Basket Amounts shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence-Based Amounts, and (b) except as provided in clause (a), the entire transaction shall be calculated on a pro forma basis. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for purposes of determining the permissibility of any action, change, transaction or event (and including permitting the existence of any Indebtedness, Liens or Investments) that requires a calculation of any financial ratio or test (including a test based on the Interest Coverage Ratio, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Total Net Leverage Ratio and/or Consolidated EBITDA), such financial ratio or test shall be calculated at the time such action is first taken, such change is first made, such transaction is first consummated or such event first occurs, as the case may be (or, in each case, such other time as is applicable thereto pursuant to Section 1.11), and no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of a subsequent change in such financial ratio or test. In addition, any Indebtedness (and associated Liens, subject to the applicable priorities required pursuant to the applicable Incurrence-Based Amounts), Investments, liquidations, dissolutions, mergers, consolidations, Restricted Payments, dividends, or any prepayments of Indebtedness incurred or otherwise effected in reliance on Fixed Basket Amounts may be reclassified at any time, as Terex may elect from time to time, as incurred under the applicable Incurrence-Based Amounts if Terex and its Restricted Subsidiaries subsequently meet the applicable ratio for such Incurrence-Based Amounts on a pro forma basis. In addition, in the case of any Indebtedness or Liens incurred pursuant to an Incurrence-Based Amount under Sections 2.27, 6.01 or 6.02, to the extent the committed amount of any such Indebtedness or Lien is undrawn, such committed amount may, at the option of Terex, be deemed fully drawn throughout such period, in which case such First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, Total Net Leverage Ratio and/or Interest Coverage Ratio, as applicable, shall be tested solely at the initial establishment of such commitments and, if the applicable financial ratio or test is satisfied, such committed amount may thereafter be borrowed or incurred and, in the case of commitments of a revolving nature, reborrowed in whole or in part, from time to time, without any further testing of any such financial ratio or test as applicable, it being understood, however, that for purposes of any subsequent determination of compliance with such financial ratio or test or any other financial ratio or test set forth in this Agreement (other than calculating the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio for purposes of Section 6.10), such Indebtedness (other than any Indebtedness that is revolving in nature) shall be deemed to be outstanding.

 

SECTION 1.07. Irish Law Terms. In this Agreement, where it relates to an Irish Loan Party, references to “examiner” and “examinership” shall have the meaning given to such terms in the Irish Companies Act.

For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

 

SECTION 1.09. Rates. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, (a) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the Alternate Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, Daily Simple SONIA, the EURIBO Rate, the Bank Bill Rate or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, the Alternate Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, Daily Simple SONIA, the EURIBO Rate, the Bank Bill Rate or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of the Alternate Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, Daily Simple SONIA, the EURIBO Rate, the Bank Bill Rate any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Alternate Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, Daily Simple SONIA, the EURIBO Rate, the Bank Bill Rate or any other Benchmark, or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrowers, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

in each case, at the option of Terex (Terex’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted under the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be:

SECTION 2.01. Commitments and Loans.

 

(a)            Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth in Amendment No. 2 and herein, each U.S. Term Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make U.S. Term Loans to Terex in dollars, on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, in an aggregate amount not to exceed its U.S. Term Loan Commitment. The U.S. Term Loans shall be incurred pursuant to a single drawing on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date.

 

(b)            Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, (i) each U.S. Revolving Credit Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make U.S. Revolving Loans to Terex, in dollars, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Credit Availability Period, and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment of such U.S. Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in such U.S. Revolving Credit Lender’s U.S. Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such U.S. Revolving Credit Lender’s U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment, and (ii) each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Multicurrency Revolving Loans to the Borrowers, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Credit Availability Period, and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment of such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in dollars (in the case of each Borrower), Euro, Pounds and any other Alternative Currency (in the case of Terex, the European Borrower and the U.K. Borrowers) and Australian Dollars (in the case of the Australian Borrower) in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (x) such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment or (y) the Aggregate Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the Australian Dollar Sublimit.

 

73

 

(c)            Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, if such Lender has so committed pursuant to Section 2.27, to make Incremental Term Loans to one or more Borrowers as shall be designated by Terex, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed its Incremental Term Loan Commitment and otherwise on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in any Incremental Assumption Agreement to which such Lender may become a party.

SECTION 2.02. Loans. (a) Each Loan (other than U.S. Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable Term Loan Commitments or Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.02(f), the Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum (except with respect to any Incremental Term Loan, to the extent otherwise provided in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement) or (ii) equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.

 

(b)            Subject to Sections 2.08 and 2.15, (i) each Dollar Borrowing made by any U.S. Borrower shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Term SOFR Loans as such U.S. Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03 and (ii) each Dollar Borrowing made by a Subsidiary Borrower (other than a U.S. Borrower) shall be comprised entirely of Term Benchmark Loans, (iii) each Alternative Currency Borrowing denominated in Euros or Australian Dollars shall be comprised entirely of Term Benchmark Loans and (iv) each Alternative Currency Borrowing denominated in Pounds shall be comprised entirely of SONIA Rate Loans. Each Lender may at its option make any Loan (including any Alternative Currency Loan) by causing any domestic or foreign branch or other Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided, however, that no Borrower shall be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than 15 Term Benchmark Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any time. For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods or denominated in different currencies, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

 

74

 

(c)            Except with respect to Loans made pursuant to Section 2.02(f), each Lender shall make each Dollar Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account in New York City as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time (or, if later, not later than two hours after the receipt of a Borrowing Request therefor), and the Administrative Agent shall, promptly upon receipt thereof, credit the amounts so received to an account as designated by Terex on behalf of the applicable Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Alternative Currency Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account in the jurisdiction of the applicable Alternative Currency as the Administrative Agent may designate for such purposes not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, and the Administrative Agent shall, promptly upon receipt thereof, credit the amounts so received to an account as designated by the applicable Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

 

(d)            Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (c) above and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of any Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds in the applicable currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error). If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

 

(e)            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Borrower shall be entitled to request any Interest Period with respect to any Term Benchmark Borrowing that would end after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the Term Loan Maturity Date or the Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date, as the case may be.

(f)            If any Issuing Bank shall not have received from any Borrower the payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.23(e) within the time specified in such Section, such Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the L/C Disbursement and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each U.S. Revolving Credit Lender or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender, as applicable, of such L/C Disbursement and its Pro Rata Percentage thereof. In the case of Letters of Credit denominated in dollars, each applicable Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on such date (or, if such Revolving Credit Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 (noon), Local Time, on any day, not later than 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on the immediately following Business Day), an amount in dollars equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement (it being understood that such amount shall be deemed to constitute an ABR U.S. Revolving Loan or Multicurrency Revolving Loan, as applicable, of such Lender and such payment shall be deemed to have reduced the L/C Exposure), and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. In the case of Letters of Credit denominated in Pounds, Euro or Australian Dollars, each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the immediately following Business Day, an amount in such Alternative Currency equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement (it being understood that such amount shall be deemed to constitute an Alternative Currency Revolving Loan of such Lender and such payment shall be deemed to have reduced the Multicurrency L/C Exposure), and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. In the case of Letters of Credit denominated in any Alternative Currency other than Pounds, Euro or Australian Dollars, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender of the Dollar Equivalent of the L/C Disbursement and of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage thereof, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on such date (or, if such Revolving Credit Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 (noon), Local Time, on any day, not later than 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on the immediately following Business Day), an amount in dollars equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent of such L/C Disbursement (it being understood that such amount shall be deemed to constitute an ABR Multicurrency Revolving Loan of such Lender and such payment shall be deemed to have reduced the Multicurrency L/C Exposure), and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from any Borrower pursuant to Section 2.23(e) prior to the time that any Revolving Credit Lender makes any payment pursuant to this paragraph (f); any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made such payments and to the applicable Issuing Bank, as their interests may appear. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, such Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with this paragraph to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of any Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.06(a), and (ii) in the case of such Lender, for the first such day, a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight funds in the applicable currency, and for each day thereafter, (A) if such L/C Disbursement is denominated in dollars, the Alternate Base Rate, and (B) if such L/C Disbursement is denominated in an Alternative Currency, an overnight rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

SECTION 2.03. Borrowing Procedure. In order to request a Borrowing (other than a U.S. Swingline Loan or a deemed Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(f), as to which this Section 2.03 shall not apply), the applicable Borrower shall hand deliver or deliver by electronic mail to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Borrowing Request (a) in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing (other than an Alternative Currency Borrowing), not later than 12:00 (noon), Local Time, three Business Days before a proposed Borrowing, (b) in the case of an Alternative Currency Borrowing, not later than 12:00 (noon), Local Time, three Business Days (or, in the case of an Alternative Currency Borrowing denominated in Australian Dollars, four Business Days) before the date of the proposed Borrowing and (c) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the day (which shall be a Business Day) of the proposed Borrowing. Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable (provided that any Borrowing Request may be conditioned on the consummation of any acquisition or similar Investment or the refinancing of any Indebtedness or any other conditions precedent reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, in which case such Borrowing Request may be revoked, if such acquisition, Investment, refinancing or condition precedent is not consummated, by the applicable Borrower by delivering notice of revocation to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date of the applicable Borrowing), shall be signed by the applicable Borrower and shall specify the following information: (i) whether such Borrowing is to be a Term Borrowing of a particular Class, a U.S. Revolving Credit Borrowing or a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing, (ii) if such Borrowing is to be a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing, whether such Borrowing is to be a Dollar Borrowing or an Alternative Currency Borrowing; (iii) if such Borrowing is to be denominated in dollars, whether it is to be a Term SOFR Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing; (iv) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day); (v) the number and location of the account to which funds are to be disbursed (which shall be an account that complies with the requirements of Section 2.02(c)); (vi) the amount of such Borrowing; (vii) if such Borrowing is to be an Alternative Currency Borrowing, the Alternative Currency of such Borrowing; and (viii) if such Borrowing is to be a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the initial Interest Period with respect thereto; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any contrary specification in any Borrowing Request, each requested Borrowing shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 2.02. If no election is made as to whether a Revolving Credit Borrowing is to be a U.S. Revolving Credit Borrowing or a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing, then such Borrowing shall be deemed to be a U.S. Revolving Credit Borrowing if denominated in dollars and a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing if denominated in an Alternative Currency. If no election as to the currency of a Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be denominated in dollars. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing if denominated in dollars, a Term Benchmark Borrowing if denominated in Euros or Australian Dollars or a SONIA Rate Borrowing if denominated in Pounds. If no Interest Period with respect to any Term Benchmark Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.03 (and the contents thereof), of each Lender’s portion of the requested Borrowing and the account to which Loans made in connection with the requested Borrowing are to be wired.

SECTION 2.04. Evidence of Debt; Repayment of Loans. (a) (i) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender entitled thereto, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan made to such Borrower, and (ii) Terex hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent (A) for the account of the U.S. Swingline Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each U.S. Swingline Loan, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, if earlier, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and (B) for the account of each Term Lender entitled thereto, the principal amount of each Term Loan of such Term Lender as provided in Section 2.11(a).

 

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

 

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

 

(d)            The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, however, 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 obligations of any Borrower to repay the Loans made to such Borrower in accordance with their terms; provided further, that in the event of an inconsistency between the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) above and the Register, the Register shall govern.

 

(e)            Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit I-1, I-2 or I-3, as applicable, or otherwise in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and Terex.

SECTION 2.05. Fees. (a) Terex agrees to pay to each Lender in dollars, through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year and on each date on which any Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein, a facility fee (a “Facility Fee”) equal to 0.375% per annum on the daily amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender (but not the L/C Commitments, the U.S. Swingline Commitments or the Contract Loan Commitments, none of which commitments shall, for the avoidance of doubt, reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender on which the Facility Fee shall be paid) during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date or ending with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or ending with the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender shall expire or be terminated); provided, however, that if any Revolving Credit Exposure remains outstanding following any such expiration or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Facility Fees solely with respect to such Revolving Credit Exposure shall continue to accrue for so long as such Revolving Credit Exposure remains outstanding and shall be payable on demand. All Facility Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. The Facility Fee due to each Lender shall commence to accrue on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date and shall cease to accrue on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein and there is not any remaining Revolving Credit Exposure.

 

(b)            Terex agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in dollars, for its own account, the administrative fees from time to time agreed to in writing by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent Fees”).

 

(c)            Terex agrees to pay (i) to each U.S. Revolving Credit Lender and each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein, a fee (an “L/C Participation Fee”) calculated on such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the daily aggregate U.S. L/C Exposure and Multicurrency L/C Exposure, respectively (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements) during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the date on which any L/C Exposure arises hereunder or ending with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or ending with the date on which all Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired and the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders shall have been terminated) at a rate equal to (A) in the case of Performance Letters of Credit, 50% of the Applicable Percentage from time to time used to determine the interest rate on Revolving Credit Borrowings comprised of Term Benchmark Loans pursuant to Section 2.06, and (B) in the case of all other Letters of Credit, 100% of the Applicable Percentage from time to time used to determine the interest rate on Revolving Credit Borrowings comprised of Term Benchmark Loans pursuant to Section 2.06, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year and on each date on which any Revolving Credit Commitment shall expire or be terminated as set forth herein a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum (or such other percentage as may be agreed upon by Terex and such Issuing Bank, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) on the amount of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank and outstanding during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing on the date on which any L/C Exposure arises hereunder or ending with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or ending with the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments shall expire or be terminated) (the “Issuing Bank Fees”). In addition to the foregoing Issuing Bank Fees, Terex agrees to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Issuing Bank, for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by such Issuing Bank in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days and shall be payable in dollars.

 

79

 

(d)            All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that the Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Bank. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

 

SECTION 2.06. Interest on Loans. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing, including each U.S. Swingline Loan, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the Alternate Base Rate and (ii) the Applicable Percentage for such Loans in effect from time to time.

 

(b)            [Reserved].

 

(c)            Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each Term Benchmark Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) Term SOFR, the EURIBO Rate or the Bank Bill Rate, as applicable, for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing and (ii) the Applicable Percentage for such Loans in effect from time to time.

 

(d)            Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each SONIA Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) Daily Simple SONIA and (ii) the Applicable Percentage for such Loans in effect from time to time.

 

(e)            Interest on each Loan shall be payable (i) on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such Loan except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and (ii) in the currency in which such Loan is denominated. The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Term SOFR, EURIBO Rate, Bank Bill Rate or Daily Simple SONIA, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(f)            All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (i) interest computed by reference to the Daily Simple SONIA shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days and (ii) interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and, in each case, shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

 

SECTION 2.07. Default Interest. If any Borrower shall default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan made to such Borrower or any other amount becoming due from such Borrower hereunder, by acceleration or otherwise, or under any other Loan Document, such Borrower shall on demand from time to time pay interest, to the extent permitted by law, on such defaulted amount to but excluding the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) (a) in the case of the Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.06 plus 2%, (b) in the case of reimbursement obligations with respect to L/C Disbursements owing in dollars, the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans plus 2%, (c) in the case of reimbursement obligations with respect to L/C Disbursements owing in Alternative Currencies, the rate applicable to Revolving Loans for the applicable Alternative Currency plus 2% and (d) in the case of any interest payable on any Loan or reimbursement obligation with respect to any L/C Disbursement, any Facility Fee or other amount payable hereunder, at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to ABR Loans that are U.S. Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as applicable, plus 2% (or, in the case of fees, reimbursements or any such other amounts that do not relate to Term Loans or the Revolving Credit Exposure, the Alternate Base Rate plus 3.00%).

 

80

 

SECTION 2.08. Alternate Rate of Interest.

 

(a)            In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing (or, at any time, in the case of a SONIA Rate Borrowing), the Administrative Agent shall have determined that (A) deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in the relevant market, (B) the rates at which such deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining its Loan during such Interest Period, (C) the relevant Benchmark will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining its Term Benchmark Loan or SONIA Rate Loan or (D) reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the relevant Benchmark, as applicable; provided that, no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time with respect to the applicable Benchmark, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written notice explaining such determination or notification to the applicable Borrower and the Lenders.

 

(b)            In the event of any such determination by the Administrative Agent under Section 2.08(a), until the Administrative Agent shall have advised such Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (i) any request by such Borrower for a Term SOFR Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.10 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing and any request by such Borrower for a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in any Alternative Currency or a SONIA Rate Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.10 shall be ineffective, (ii) any outstanding affected Term SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted to ABR Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period and (iii) any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency or SONIA Rate Loans shall be converted into a borrowing of ABR Loans denominated in dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such outstanding Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of SONIA Rate Loans, on the next Business Day following notification by the Administrative Agent). Each determination by the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(c)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to any setting of the then-current USD Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such USD Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, 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. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.

 

81

 

(d)            In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement with respect to the then-current USD Benchmark, the Administrative Agent (in consultation with Terex) 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.

 

(e)            The Administrative Agent will promptly notify Terex and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a USD Benchmark pursuant to Section 2.08(f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.08, including any determination with respect to a tenor, 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 2.08.

 

(f)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current USD Benchmark is a term rate and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

 

82

 

 

(g)            Upon Terex’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (i) the Borrowers may revoke any request for a Term SOFR Borrowing or a conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the applicable Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans and (ii) any outstanding affected Term SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted to ABR Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate.

(h)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or Terex or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to Terex) that Terex or the Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined that a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred with respect to the applicable Benchmark for any Alternative Currency, then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and Terex may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing the Benchmark for such Alternative Currency in accordance with this Section 2.08 with an alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar syndicated credit facilities syndicated in the United States and denominated in the applicable Alternative Currency for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar syndicated credit facilities syndicated in the United States and denominated in the applicable Alternative Currency for such Benchmarks, each of which adjustments or methods for calculating such adjustments shall be published on one or more information services as selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated (any such proposed rate, an “Alternative Currency Benchmark Replacement”), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and Terex unless, prior to such time, Lenders constituting the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Such Alternative Currency Benchmark Replacement for the applicable Alternative Currency shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Alternative Currency Benchmark Replacement shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent.

83

(i)             If no Alternative Currency Benchmark Replacement has been determined for the applicable Alternative Currency and the circumstances under Section 2.08(h) above exist or a Benchmark Replacement Date has occurred with respect to such Alternative Currency (as applicable), the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify Terex and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Loans in such Alternative Currency shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Loans or Interest Periods). Upon receipt of such notice (i) the applicable Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, or continuation of Loans in each such affected Alternative Currency (to the extent of the affected Alternative Currency Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted each such request into a request for a borrowing of ABR Loans denominated in dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount specified therein and (ii) any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans or SONIA Rate Loans, at the applicable Borrower’s election, shall either be (x) converted into a borrowing of ABR Loans denominated in dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such outstanding Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of SONIA Rate Loans, on the next Business Day following notification by the Administrative Agent) or (y) be prepaid at the end of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of SONIA Rate Loans, on the next Business Day following notification by the Administrative Agent) in full; provided that if no election is made by the applicable Borrower by the earlier of the date that is (A) three Business Days after receipt by Terex of such notice and (B) the last day of the current Interest Period for the applicable Borrowing, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have elected clause (x) above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any definition of an Alternative Currency Benchmark Replacement for any Alternative Currency shall provide that in no event shall such Alternative Currency Benchmark Replacement be less than zero for all purposes of this Agreement.

(j)              In connection with the implementation of an Alternative Currency Benchmark Replacement for any Alternative Currency, the Administrative Agent (in consultation with Terex) will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes with respect to the applicable Alternative Currency 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 the Borrowers.

SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a)            The U.S. Term Loan Commitments shall automatically terminate upon the making of the U.S. Term Loans on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date. Any Revolving Credit Commitments and the U.S. Swingline Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Any L/C Commitment shall automatically terminate on the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Any Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall terminate as provided in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement.

(b)            Upon at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent, Terex may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the U.S. Term Loan Commitments, the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments or the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction of the U.S. Term Loan Commitments, the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments or the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a minimum amount of $5,000,000, (ii) the Total U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the sum of (x) the Aggregate U.S. Revolving Credit Exposure at the time and (y) the U.S. Contract Loan Exposure at such time and (iii) the Total Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the sum of (x) the Aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Exposure at the time and (y) the Multicurrency Contract Loan Exposure at such time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.09(b), a termination notice of the U.S. Term Loan Commitments, the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments or the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments delivered by Terex may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, or other corporate transaction or condition precedent, in which case such notice may be revoked by Terex (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

84

(c)            Each reduction in the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments of a Class hereunder shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their applicable Commitments. Terex shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, on the date of each termination or reduction of any Revolving Credit Commitments, the Facility Fees on the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments so terminated or reduced, accrued to but excluding the date of such termination or reduction.

SECTION 2.10. Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings. Each Borrower shall have the right at any time upon prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (a) not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day prior to conversion, to convert any Term SOFR Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing, (b) not later than 12:00 (noon), Local Time, three Business Days prior to conversion or continuation (or in the case of a continuation of a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Australian Dollars, four Business Days prior to continuation), to convert any ABR Borrowing into a Term SOFR Borrowing or to continue any Term Benchmark Borrowing as a Term Benchmark Borrowing in the same currency for an additional Interest Period, and (c) not later than 12:00 (noon), Local Time, three Business Days prior to conversion (or in the case of a conversion of a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Australian Dollars, four Business Days prior to conversion), to convert the Interest Period with respect to any Term Benchmark Borrowing to another permissible Interest Period, subject in each case to the following:

(i)            each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Loans comprising the converted or continued Borrowing;

(ii)            if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing shall satisfy the limitations specified in Sections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b) regarding the principal amount and maximum number of Borrowings of the relevant Type;

(iii)            each conversion shall be effected by each Lender and the Administrative Agent by recording for the account of such Lender the new Loan of such Lender resulting from such conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an equivalent principal amount;

(iv)            accrued interest on any Term Benchmark Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by such Borrower at the time of conversion;

85

(v)            if any Term Benchmark Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, such Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16;

(vi)           [reserved];

(vii)          [reserved];

(viii)          no Interest Period may be selected for any Term SOFR Term Borrowing that would end later than a Repayment Date, occurring on or after the first day of such Interest Period if, after giving effect to such selection, the aggregate outstanding amount of (A) the Term SOFR Term Borrowings with Interest Periods ending on or prior to such Repayment Date and (B) the ABR Term Borrowings would not be at least equal to the principal amount of Term Borrowings to be paid on such Repayment Date; and

(ix)            upon notice to any Borrower from the Administrative Agent given at the request of the Required Lenders, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (A) no outstanding Dollar Borrowing may be converted into, or continued as, a Term SOFR Borrowing, (B) unless repaid, each Term SOFR Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (C) no Interest Period in excess of one month may be selected for any Alternative Currency Borrowing.

Each notice pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and specify (i) the identity and amount of the Borrowing that the applicable Borrower requests be converted or continued, (ii) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Term Benchmark Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing, (iii) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a Term Benchmark Borrowing, such Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.10 and of each Lender’s portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If such Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), (i) in the case of a Dollar Borrowing, automatically be continued as an ABR Borrowing and (ii) in the case of an Alternative Currency Borrowing, automatically be continued into a new Interest Period of one month’s duration. Notwithstanding any contrary provisions herein, the currency of an outstanding Borrowing may not be changed in connection with any conversion or continuation of such Borrowing.

86

(a) Terex shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the U.S. Term Lenders, on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December of each year (each such date being called a “U.S. Term Loan Repayment Date”), commencing on the last Business Day of June 2025, a principal amount of the U.S. Term Loans equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the U.S. Term Loans outstanding on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.12(b), 2.13(e), 2.27(d) and 9.04(l)), with the balance payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid but excluding the date of such payment.

(a) Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, upon prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of a prepayment of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, given before 12:00 (noon), Local Time, three Business Days before such prepayment, (ii) in the case of a prepayment of ABR Loans, given before 12:00 (noon), Local Time, on the day (which shall be a Business Day) of such prepayment and (iii) in the case of a prepayment of SONIA Rate Loans, given before 1:00 p.m., Local Time, three Business Days before such prepayment; provided, however, that each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum.

(b)            Optional prepayments of Term Loans shall be allocated among any outstanding Classes of Term Loans of the applicable Borrower as specified by the applicable Borrower and shall be applied as specified by the applicable Borrower in the notice described in Section 2.12(c) and, if no direction is given by the applicable Borrower, in the direct order of maturity. Optional prepayments of Revolving Loans shall be allocated among any outstanding Classes of Revolving Loans of the applicable Borrower as specified by the applicable Borrower.

(c)            Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) of such Borrower to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the applicable Borrower to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein. All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be subject to Section 2.16 but, except as provided in Section 2.12(d), otherwise without premium or penalty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.12(c), a notice of prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or other corporate transaction or condition precedent, in which case such notice may be revoked by Terex (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to but excluding the date of payment.

87

(d)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, prior to the six-month anniversary of the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, (i) Terex refinances or makes any prepayment or repayment of U.S. Term Loans in connection with any Repricing Transaction (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.13(c) that constitutes a Repricing Transaction) or (ii) a Lender is required to assign all or any part of its U.S. Term Loans as a result of its failure to consent to an amendment or other modification of this Agreement that constitutes a Repricing Transaction, then in each case Terex shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each applicable Lender whose U.S. Term Loans are so prepaid or repaid or so assigned, a payment of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the U.S. Term Loans so prepaid, repaid or assigned, as the case may be; provided that such premium shall not apply to any prepayment, amendment or modification in connection with a Transformative Transaction. All such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of effectiveness of such Repricing Transaction.

SECTION 2.13. Mandatory Prepayments. (a) In the event of any termination of all the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments, (i) each Borrower shall repay or prepay all its outstanding U.S. Revolving Credit Borrowings or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowings, as applicable and (ii) Terex shall repay or prepay all outstanding U.S. Swingline Loans (in the case of a termination of the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments), in each case on the date of any such termination. In the event of any partial reduction of the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments, then at or prior to the effective date of such reduction, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders of the Aggregate U.S. Revolving Credit Exposure or Aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Exposure, as applicable, after giving effect thereto. If at any time, as a result of such a partial reduction or termination, as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or otherwise, (x) the Aggregate U.S. Revolving Credit Exposure plus the U.S. Contract Loan Exposure would exceed the Total U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment, (y) the Aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Exposure plus the Multicurrency Contract Loan Exposure would exceed the Total Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment or (z) the Aggregate Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Australian Dollar Sublimit, then the applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall (1) on the date of such reduction or termination of Revolving Credit Commitments or (2) within three Business Day following notice from the Administrative Agent of any such fluctuation in exchange rate or otherwise, repay or prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings or U.S. Swingline Loans (or a combination thereof) and/or cash collateralize Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(b)            Subject to Section 2.13(j), not later than the fifth Business Day following the receipt of Net Cash Proceeds by Terex or any Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of any Asset Sale of Collateral pursuant to Section 6.05(b) in excess of the greater of $235,000,000 and 25.0% of Consolidated EBITDA (determined on a pro forma basis as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period) from any single event or series of related events (such excess amount, the “Asset Sale Excess Proceeds”), then, unless Terex has determined in good faith that such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds shall be reinvested in the business of Terex or its Restricted Subsidiaries (including the making of any Permitted Acquisition, but excluding any cash or Cash Equivalents) (an “Asset Sale Reinvestment Event”), the outstanding Term Loans shall be prepaid in accordance with Section 2.13(f) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Required Asset Sale Percentage (determined on a pro forma basis as of last day of the most recently ended Test Period prior to the time of the making of such prepayment) of such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, within five Business Days following each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Payment Amount with respect to any Asset Sale Excess Proceeds shall be applied to prepay the outstanding Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(f).

88

(c)            In the event that Terex or any Restricted Subsidiary shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of any Indebtedness for money borrowed (other than Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 6.01 ), then, substantially simultaneously with (and in any event not later than the third Business Day next following) the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be used to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(f).

(d)            Subject to Section 2.13(j), no later than five Business Days after the delivery of audited financial statements pursuant to Section 5.04(a) in respect of the end of each ECF Period, outstanding Term Loans shall be prepaid in accordance with Section 2.13(f) in an aggregate principal amount equal to (i) the Required Excess Cash Flow Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for the ECF Period then ended minus (ii) the greater of $235,000,000 and 25.0% of Consolidated EBITDA (determined on a pro forma basis as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period), minus (iii) at the election of Terex, to the extent not funded with the proceeds of long-term Indebtedness (other than revolving Indebtedness) of Terex or its Restricted Subsidiaries, the aggregate amount of (1) all voluntary prepayments and voluntary repurchases of Term Loans (determined by the par value of the Loans prepaid and not the cash purchase price paid for such prepayments or repurchases) and Revolving Loans (but, in the case of Revolving Loans, only to the extent of a concurrent and permanent reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments) made by Terex or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during such ECF Period (including pursuant to Section 2.12(b), Section 2.16 or Section 9.04(l)), and all premiums made in cash in connection therewith, (2) all voluntary prepayments and repurchases (determined by the par value and not the cash purchase price paid for such prepayments and repurchases) of First Lien Debt (other than the Facilities) (but, in the case of such First Lien Debt in the form of revolving Indebtedness, only to the extent of a concurrent and permanent reduction in the relevant revolving commitments), made by Terex or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during such ECF Period, and all premiums made in cash in connection therewith, (3) Restricted Payments permitted hereunder paid in cash by Terex or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during such ECF Period, (4) cash payments in respect of Permitted Acquisitions and other Investments permitted hereunder made by Terex or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during such ECF Period, or, at the election of Terex in its sole discretion and without duplication with future periods, following such ECF Period and prior to such ECF Application Date; provided that, Terex may elect not to utilize any such deduction set forth in this clause (iii) with respect to any ECF Period, in which case such deduction may be utilized in any future ECF Period.

89

(e)            Subject to Section 2.13(j), not later than the fifth Business Day following any Casualty or Condemnation of Collateral, and the Casualty Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds, as the case may be (but in any event, excluding business interruption insurance proceeds), are in excess of the greater of $235,000,000 and 25.0% of Consolidated EBITDA (determined on a pro forma basis as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period) from any single event or series of related events (such excess amount, the “Casualty/Condemnation Excess Proceeds”), then, unless Terex has determined in good faith that such Casualty/Condemnation Excess Proceeds shall be reinvested in its business in the business of Terex or its Restricted Subsidiaries (including the making of any Permitted Acquisition, but excluding any cash or Cash Equivalents) (a “Casualty/Condemnation Reinvestment Event”), the outstanding Term Loans shall be prepaid in accordance with Section 2.13(f) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Required Asset Sale Percentage (determined on a pro forma basis as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period prior to the time of the making of such prepayment) of such Casualty/Condemnation Excess Proceeds; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, within five Business Days following each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Payment Amount with respect to any Casualty/Condemnation Excess Proceeds shall be applied to prepay the outstanding Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(f);

(f)            Each prepayment of outstanding Term Loans required to be made pursuant to any paragraph of this Section 2.13 shall be allocated pro rata between the U.S. Term Loans and the other Classes of Term Loans then outstanding (if any) and applied against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect thereof as directed by Terex (or, if no direction is given by Terex, in the direct order of maturity); provided that any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Sections 2.13(b), (d) and (e) may, at Terex’s option, be applied to prepay other First Lien Debt on a pro rata basis with outstanding Term Loans to the extent required under the terms of such other First Lien Debt.

(g)            Terex shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at least three Business Days’ (or four Business Days’ in the case of a prepayment under Section 2.13(b), Section 2.13(d) or Section 2.13(e)), such shorter time as is specified in this Section 2.13 or as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, prior written notice of each prepayment required under this Section 2.13, a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of Terex setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the Type of each Loan being prepaid and the principal amount of each Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender of such notice. Each such Term Lender may reject all or any portion of its pro rata share of the prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.13(b), Section 2.13(d) or Section 2.13(e) (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent prior to the time specified by the Administrative Agent, such failure will be deemed an acceptance of such prepayment. Any Declined Proceeds may be retained by Terex and the Restricted Subsidiaries (such retained amount, the “Retained Declined Proceeds”) and included in the calculation of “Available Amount” pursuant to clause (g) of the definition thereof.

(h)            All prepayments of Borrowings under this Section 2.13 shall be subject to Section 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.

(i)            [Reserved].

90

(j)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including paragraphs (b), (d) and (e) above), to the extent that Terex has determined in good faith that (i) any Asset Sale Excess Proceeds or any Casualty/Condemnation Excess Proceeds received by a Non-U.S. Subsidiary or Excess Cash Flow attributable to a Non-U.S. Subsidiary (or branches of a Non-U.S. Subsidiary) are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the relevant Borrower(s) (including financial assistance and corporate benefit restrictions and fiduciary and statutory duties of the relevant directors), (ii) such repatriation would be restricted by applicable material constituent documents, including as a result of minority ownership by third parties, and other material agreements (so long as such restrictions were not implemented for the purpose of avoiding such mandatory prepayment requirements) or (iii) in the case of Non-U.S. Subsidiaries (including repatriation or distributions that would be made through Non-U.S. Subsidiaries), such repatriation or any distribution of the relevant amounts would result in material adverse Tax consequences (as determined by Terex in good faith), the portion of such Asset Sale Excess Proceeds, Casualty/Condemnation Excess Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13 but may be retained by the applicable Non-U.S. Subsidiary or branch.

SECTION 2.14. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances. (a)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall change the basis of taxation of payments to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank of the principal of or interest on any Term Benchmark Loan or SONIA Rate Loan made by such Lender or any Fees or other amounts payable under any Loan Document (other than changes in respect of Indemnified Taxes, Taxes described in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) of the definition of Excluded Taxes or Connection Income Taxes), or shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by any Lender or any Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement which is reflected in the EURIBO Rate or the Bank Bill Rate, as the case may be) or shall impose on such Lender or such Issuing Bank or the relevant interbank market any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Term Benchmark Loans or SONIA Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of making or maintaining any Term Benchmark Loan or SONIA Rate Loan or increase the cost to any Lender of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or purchasing or maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to be material, then the applicable Borrower(s) will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, upon demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)            If any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law (including any regarding liquidity or capital adequacy) has 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 or the Loans made or participations in Letters of Credit purchased by such Lender pursuant hereto or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank pursuant hereto 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 liquidity or capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to be material, then from time to time the applicable Borrower(s) shall 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.

91

(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 applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for, and calculation of, such amount or amounts shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.14 to the contrary, no Lender or Issuing Bank shall be entitled to any additional amount or amounts under this Section 2.14 unless and only if such Lender or Issuing Bank is generally seeking similar compensation from similarly situated borrowers (which are parties to credit or loan documentation containing a provision similar to this Section 2.14), as determined by such Lender or Issuing Bank in its reasonable discretion. The applicable Borrower(s) shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within 10 days after its receipt of the same.

(d)            Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender and each Issuing Bank regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, agreement, guideline or other change or condition that shall have occurred or been imposed.

SECTION 2.15. Change in Legality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Term Benchmark Loan or SONIA Rate Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Term Benchmark Loan or SONIA Rate Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrowers and to the Administrative Agent:

(i)            such Lender may declare that Term Benchmark Loans or SONIA Rate Loans in the affected currency will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional Interest Periods) and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Term Benchmark Loans in the affected currency, whereupon any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing or SONIA Rate Borrowing in the affected currency (or to convert an ABR Borrowing to a Term Benchmark Borrowing in the affected currency or to continue a Term Benchmark Borrowing in the affected currency for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (in the case of Dollar Loans) or ABR Loans denominated in dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount specified therein (in the case of Alternative Currency Loans) (or a request to continue an ABR Loan as such or to convert a Term Benchmark Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

92

(ii)            such Lender may require that all outstanding Term Benchmark Loans or SONIA Rate Loans in the affected currency made by it be converted to ABR Loans (in the case of Dollar Loans) or ABR Loans denominated in dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of like amount (in the case of Alternative Currency Loans) in which event all such Term Benchmark Loans or SONIA Rate Loans shall be automatically converted to such ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below.

(iii)            In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Term Benchmark Loans or SONIA Rate Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Term Benchmark Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Term Benchmark Loans.

(b)            For purposes of this Section 2.15, a notice to Terex by any Lender shall be effective as to each Term Benchmark Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period currently applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by Terex.

SECTION 2.16. Indemnity. Each applicable Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss or expense, including any break-funding cost or any loss sustained in converting between any Alternative Currency and dollars, as the case may be, that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such Lender receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any Term Benchmark Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor or any SONIA Rate Loan prior to the Interest Payment Date therefor, (ii) the conversion of any (A) Term Benchmark Loan to an ABR Loan or (B) Interest Period with respect to any Term Benchmark Loan, in each case other than on the last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor, or (iii) any Term Benchmark Loan to be made by such Lender (including any Term Benchmark Loan to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) or SONIA Rate Loan not being made after notice of such Loan shall have been given by the applicable Borrower hereunder (any of the events referred to in this clause (a) being called a “Breakage Event”) or (b) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment required to be made hereunder. In the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining funds for the Term Benchmark Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying the funds released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16, together with a reasonably detailed calculation thereof, shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

93

SECTION 2.17. Pro Rata Treatment. Subject to Section 2.30 and Section 9.23 and except as provided below in this Section 2.17 with respect to U.S. Swingline Loans and as required under Section 2.15 or 2.29, each Borrowing of any Class, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing of any Class, each payment of interest on the Loans of any Class, each payment of the Facility Fees of any Class, each reduction of the Term Loan Commitments of any Class, the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments or the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class and each conversion of any Borrowing of any Class to or continuation of any Borrowing of any Class as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders of such Class in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments of such Class (or, if such Commitments of such Class shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans of such Class). For purposes of determining the available U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at any time, each outstanding U.S. Swingline Loan and U.S. Contract Loan shall be deemed to have utilized the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders which shall not have made U.S. Swingline Loans or U.S. Contract Loans) pro rata in accordance with such respective U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments. For purposes of determining the available Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at any time, each outstanding Multicurrency Contract Loan shall be deemed to have utilized the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders which shall not have made Multicurrency Contract Loans) pro rata in accordance with such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar or applicable Alternative Currency amount.

SECTION 2.18. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that, subject to Section 9.23, if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against any Borrower or any other Loan Party, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, examinership or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any of its Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements or U.S. Swingline Loans as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and U.S. Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon shall be proportionately less than the unpaid portion of the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and U.S. Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon of any other Lender, it shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and U.S. Swingline Loans, as the case may be, and interest thereon of such other Lender, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of the principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and U.S. Swingline Loans; provided, however, that (a) if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.18 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest, and (b) the provisions of this Section 2.18 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Loan Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including any payment received pursuant to Section 2.15). Each Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan or L/C Disbursement deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by such Borrower to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

94

SECTION 2.19. Payments. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document from a Payment Location in the United States or the jurisdiction of any Alternative Currency prior to (i) 1:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date when due, in the case of any amount payable in dollars, and (ii) 12:00 (noon), Local Time, on the date when due, in the case of any amount payable in any Alternative Currency, in each case, in immediately available funds, without setoff, defense or counterclaim. Each such payment (other than (i) Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Bank, and (ii) principal of and interest on U.S. Swingline Loans, which shall be paid directly to the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender except as otherwise provided in Section 2.22(e)) shall be made to such account as shall from time to time be specified in a writing delivered to Terex and each Borrower by the Administrative Agent. All Alternative Currency Loans hereunder shall be denominated and made, and all payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document in respect thereof (whether of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) shall be made, in such Alternative Currency. All Dollar Loans hereunder shall be denominated and made, and all payments of principal and interest, Fees or otherwise hereunder or under any other Loan Document in respect thereof shall be made, in dollars, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. Unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Borrower and each Lender to receive any such payment, all other amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be payable in dollars.

(b)            Whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.

SECTION 2.20. Taxes. For purposes of this Section, the term “Lender” shall include any Issuing Bank or Transferee.

(a)            Any and all payments by or on behalf of any Loan Party, other than any U.K. Loan Party or any Irish Loan Party, hereunder and under any other Loan Document shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.19, free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority in the United States, the jurisdiction of any Alternative Currency or the jurisdiction of any Payment Location, except as required by applicable law. If any Loan Party, other than any U.K. Loan Party or any Irish Loan Party, shall be required under applicable law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, the applicable Loan Party shall pay an additional amount (an “additional amount”) as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.20) the Lender shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions for Indemnified Taxes been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

95

(b)            In addition, each Borrower (other than any U.K. Loan Party or Irish Loan Party) agrees to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any current or future stamp, documentary, excise, transfer, sales, property or similar Taxes, charges or levies (including mortgage recording Taxes and similar fees) that arise from any payment made hereunder or under any other Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document imposed by any Governmental Authority in the United States, the jurisdiction of any Alternative Currency or the jurisdiction of any Payment Location other than any such Taxes that are Other Connection Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (other than an assignment made at the request of any Borrower) (“Other Taxes”).

(c)            Each Loan Party (other than any U.K. Loan Party or any Irish Loan Party) will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes attributable to it (including Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses)) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared by the Administrative Agent or a Lender, or the Administrative Agent on its behalf, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Such indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date the Administrative Agent or any Lender makes written demand therefor.

(d)            Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 30 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Loan Parties have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(f)(ii) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such 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 any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e)            As soon as practicable after the date of any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower (other than any U.K. Loan Party or Irish Loan Party) or any other Loan Party (other than any U.K. Loan Party or any Irish Loan Party) to the relevant Governmental Authority, such Borrower or such other Loan Party will deliver to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.01, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing payment thereof.

96

(f)            (i) Each Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax with respect to payments by such Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall deliver to such Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent (including, for the avoidance of doubt, applicable Australian law, which documentation shall include such Lender’s Australian Business Number or Tax File Number or details of a relevant exemption) as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law (including, for the avoidance of doubt, applicable Australian law) or reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each Lender shall deliver such documentation promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any documentation previously delivered by such Lender. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.20(f), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation pursuant to this Section 2.20(f) that such Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(ii)            Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A)           any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to such Borrower 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 such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), an executed copy of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B)            any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower 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 Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1)            in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

97

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

(3)            in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-1 to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

(4)            to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-2 or Exhibit K-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; and

(C)            any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower 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 Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals 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 such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(g)            If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States 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 applicable Loan Party or Administrative Agent (such applicable party a “Withholding Agent”), at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding 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 Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

98

(h)            [Reserved].

(i)            Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.20 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(j)            If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.20 or Sections 2.31 or 2.32 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to such sections), 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 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 paragraph (j) (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 paragraph (j), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (j) 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 paragraph (j) 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 the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(k)            The tax indemnification obligations of the U.K. Loan Parties and the Irish Loan Parties shall be governed by Sections 2.31 and 2.32, respectively. To the extent the provisions of this Section 2.20 conflict with the provisions of Sections 2.31 or 2.32 as they relate to the U.K. Loan Parties or the Irish Loan Parties, respectively, the provisions of Sections 2.31 or 2.32 (as the case may be) shall control.

99

SECTION 2.21. Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate. (a) In the event (i) any Lender or an Issuing Bank delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or an Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15, (iii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or an Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.20, 2.31 or 2.32, (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents which has been approved by the Required Lenders, Required Facility Lenders or Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, and which additionally requires the consent of such Lender for approval pursuant to Section 9.08(b) or (v) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, any Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)), upon notice to such Lender or such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender or such Issuing Bank to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.14 or Section 2.20, 2.31 or 2.32) and obligations under this Agreement (or, in the case of clause (iv) above, at the option of such Borrower, either all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement or all its interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Class of Loans or Commitments that is the subject of the related consent, amendment, waiver or other modification) to an assignee (other than any Ineligible Assignee) that shall assume such assigned obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) (or, in lieu of such replacement, the applicable Borrower may prepay the Loans of such Lender on a non-pro rata basis); provided that (A) such assignment (or prepayment) shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (B) in the case of a replacement (except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund), such Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Credit Commitment is being assigned (except in the case of an assignment to an Issuing Bank), of the Issuing Banks and the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and (C) such Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the affected Lender or Issuing Bank in immediately available funds (and in the currency or currencies in which payment would be required if all amounts were to be paid by such Borrower) an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans or L/C Disbursements of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, respectively, plus all Fees and other amounts accrued for the account of such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (including any amounts under Section 2.14 and Section 2.16), in each case with respect to the Loans or Commitments subject to such assignment; provided, further, that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or notice under Section 2.15 or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.20, 2.31 or 2.32, as the case may be, cease to cause such Lender or such Issuing Bank to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.15, or cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 2.20, 2.31 or 2.32, as the case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender or such Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (b) below), or if such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall waive its right to claim further compensation under Section 2.14 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall withdraw its notice under Section 2.15 or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.20, 2.31 or 2.32 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification, as the case may be, then such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder (or the applicable Borrower shall no longer be permitted to prepay the Loans of such Lender on a non-pro rata basis, as the case may be).

100

(b)            If (i) any Lender or an Issuing Bank shall request compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or an Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15 or (iii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or an Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or an Issuing Bank, pursuant to Section 2.20, 2.31 or 2.32, then such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts (which shall not require such Lender or such Issuing Bank to incur an unreimbursed loss or unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise take any action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any disadvantage or burden deemed by it to be significant) (A) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by such Borrower or (B) to assign its rights and delegate and transfer its obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if such filing or assignment would materially reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.14 or enable it to withdraw its notice pursuant to Section 2.15 or would materially reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.20, 2.31 or 2.32, as the case may be, in the future. Terex hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or any Issuing Bank in connection with any such filing or assignment, delegation and transfer.

(c)            Each Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers agree that in connection with the replacement or repayment of a Lender and upon payment to such replaced or repaid Lender of all amounts required to be paid under this Section 2.21, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall be authorized, without the need for additional consent from such replaced Lender, to execute an Assignment and Acceptance on behalf of such replaced Lender, and any such Assignment and Acceptance so executed by the Administrative Agent or the applicable Borrower and, to the extent required under Section 9.04, the applicable Borrower, the U.S. Swingline Lender and each Issuing Banks, shall be effective for purposes of this Section 2.21 and Section 9.04. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.21, in the event that a Lender which holds Loans or Commitments under more than one Facility does not agree to a proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver which requires the consent of all Lenders under a particular Facility, the Borrowers shall be permitted to replace or repay the non-consenting Lender with respect to the affected Facility and may, but shall not be required to, replace or repay such Lender with respect to any unaffected Facilities.

SECTION 2.22. U.S. Swingline Loans.

(a)            U.S. Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the U.S. Swingline Lender agrees to make loans, in dollars, to Terex at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Credit Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of all U.S. Swingline Exposure exceeding $100,000,000 in the aggregate, or (ii) the Aggregate U.S. Revolving Credit Exposure, after giving effect to any U.S. Swingline Loan, exceeding the Total U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment. Each U.S. Swingline Loan shall be in a principal amount that is an integral multiple of the U.S. Swingline Multiple. The U.S. Swingline Commitments may be terminated or reduced from time to time as provided herein. Within the foregoing limits, each applicable Borrower of U.S. Swingline Loans may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow U.S. Swingline Loans hereunder, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein.

(b)            U.S. Swingline Loans. The applicable Borrower shall notify the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, or by telephone (confirmed by written notice), not later than 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the day of a proposed U.S. Swingline Loan. Such notice shall be delivered on a Business Day, shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of such U.S. Swingline Loan.

101

(c)            Prepayment. The applicable Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any U.S. Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written notice) to the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender and to the Administrative Agent before 1:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date of prepayment at such U.S. Swingline Lender’s address provided in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers. All principal payments of U.S. Swingline Loans shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid to the date of payment.

(d)            Interest. Each U.S. Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan and, subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, shall bear interest as provided in Section 2.06(a) as if it were an ABR Revolving Loan.

(e)            Participations. If the applicable Borrower does not fully repay a U.S. Swingline Loan on or prior to the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto, the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof by 2:00 p.m., New York City time by written notice (or by telephone, confirmed in writing), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender or U.S. Revolving Credit Lender, as the case may be, thereof (in writing or by telephone, confirmed in writing) and of its Pro Rata Percentage of such U.S. Swingline Loan. Upon such notice but without any further action, such U.S. Swingline Lender hereby agrees to grant to each U.S. Revolving Credit Lender or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender, as the case may be, and each U.S. Revolving Credit Lender and each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender hereby agrees to acquire from the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender, a participation in such defaulted U.S. Swingline Loan equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of such defaulted U.S. Swingline Loan. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each U.S. Swingline Loan, as the case may be, that is not repaid on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in U.S. Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph (e) is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph (e) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Credit Lender (and Section 2.02(c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower of any participations in any U.S. Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph (e) and thereafter payments in respect of such U.S. Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender from the applicable Borrower (or other party on behalf of such Borrower) in respect of a U.S. Swingline Loan after receipt by such U.S. Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph (e) and to the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a U.S. Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph (e) shall not relieve the applicable Borrower (or other party liable for obligations of such Borrower) of any default in the payment thereof.

102

SECTION 2.23. Letters of Credit. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each of the Existing Letters of Credit shall, upon the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or any other person, be deemed for all purposes to have been issued by the applicable Issuing Bank as either a U.S. Letter of Credit or a Multicurrency Letter of Credit hereunder, as set forth in Schedule 1.01(c), and (ii) any Borrower may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit for its own account or for the account of any of its Subsidiaries, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time while the Revolving Credit Commitments remain in effect. This Section shall not be construed to impose an obligation upon an Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In addition, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit for the account of the European Borrower unless such Issuing Bank is, in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations with respect to the issuance of Letters of Credit in, or for the account of any Person organized under the laws of, Ireland, authorized to issue such Letter of Credit and has agreed to so issue such Letter of Credit.

(b)            Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. In order to request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or to amend, renew or extend an existing Letter of Credit), the applicable Borrower shall hand deliver or deliver by e-mail to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (three Business Days in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, or such shorter period as the applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank shall agree) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, specifying whether such Letter of Credit is to be a U.S. Letter of Credit or a Multicurrency Letter of Credit, the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) below), the amount and currency (which must be dollars in the case of a U.S. Letter of Credit or an Alternative Currency in the case of a Multicurrency Letter of Credit) of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such Letter of Credit. 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 applicable Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (A) the sum of the L/C Exposure and the Additional L/C Exposure shall not exceed $500,000,000, (B) the sum of the Aggregate U.S. Revolving Credit Exposure and the U.S. Contract Loan Exposure shall not exceed the Total U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment, (C) the sum of the Aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Exposure and the Multicurrency Contract Loan Exposure shall not exceed the Total Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment, (D) if the Letter of Credit is denominated in Australian Dollars, the Aggregate Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Australian Dollar Sublimit and (E) unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank, the aggregate outstanding L/C Exposure with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank shall not exceed its L/C Commitment. An Issuing Bank shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally.

103

(c)            Expiration Date. Unless such Letter of Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date, each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on the earlier of the date that is 24 months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and, unless such Letter of Credit is cash collateralized in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date; provided, that a Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the applicable Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of 24 months or less (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, unless such Letter of Credit is cash collateralized in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank) unless the applicable Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed.

(d)            Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or, in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit, deemed issuance on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date) and without any further action on the part of such Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each U.S. Revolving Credit Lender (with respect to each U.S. Letter of Credit) and to each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender (with respect to each Multicurrency Letter of Credit), and each such Lender hereby acquires from the applicable Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each such Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower (or, if applicable, another party pursuant to its obligations under any other Loan Document) in respect of such Letter of Credit forthwith on the date due as provided in Section 2.02(f) and in the same currency as such L/C Disbursement. Each U.S. Revolving Credit Lender and each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph (d) in respect of U.S. Letters of Credit and Multicurrency Letters of Credit, respectively, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the fact that, as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure at any time might exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment at such time (in which case Section 2.13(a) would apply), and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

104

(e)            Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit denominated in dollars, the applicable Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement on the Business Day that such Borrower shall have received notice from the applicable Issuing Bank that payment of such draft will be made, or, if such Borrower shall have received such notice later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business Day. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit denominated in any Alternative Currency, the applicable Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement on the Business Day that such Borrower shall have received notice from the applicable Issuing Bank that payment of such draft will be made, or, if such Borrower shall have received such notice later than 10:00 a.m., London time, on any Business Day, not later than 10:00 a.m., London time, on the immediately following Business Day.

(f)            Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligations to reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) above shall be 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 or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein;

(ii)            any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;

(iii)            the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that any Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, such Borrower, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

(iv)            any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(v)            payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and

(vi)            any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of an Issuing Bank, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

105

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of each Borrower hereunder to reimburse L/C Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Issuing Bank. However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Bank from liability to any Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by any Borrower that are caused by an Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof; it is understood that an Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit (i) an Issuing Bank’s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and (ii) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of an Issuing Bank. No Issuing Bank shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Bank. The Borrowers agree that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Banks under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drawings or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct or, in the case of determinations of whether drawings and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, if done in the absence of bad faith (in each case, as determined in a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction), shall be binding on the Borrowers and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Banks to the Borrowers.

(g)            Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic notification, confirmed in writing, to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve any Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Revolving Credit Lender notice thereof.

(h)            Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on such date, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of such Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement, to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment by such Borrower or the date on which interest shall commence to accrue thereon as provided in Section 2.02(f), at the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount were (i) in the case of a Dollar Loan, an ABR Revolving Loan and (ii) in the case of an Alternative Currency Loan, a Term Benchmark Revolving Loan with an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

106

(i)             Resignation or Removal of an Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 180 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Terex, and any Issuing Bank may be removed at any time by Terex by notice to such Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; provided that in the case of any resignation, such resignation shall be subject to and conditioned upon another Issuing Bank hereunder (which may be another Person reasonably acceptable to Terex that becomes an Issuing Bank in connection therewith) having agreed to provide U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments in an amount equal to the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of the resigning Issuing Bank, or in such other amount as otherwise agreed by Terex. Subject to the next succeeding paragraph, upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender that shall agree to serve as a successor Issuing Bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the removed or retiring Issuing Bank and the removed or retiring Issuing Bank shall be discharged from its obligations to issue additional Letters of Credit hereunder. At the time such removal or resignation shall become effective, Terex shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(ii). The acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents 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 removal or resignation of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the removed or retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j)             Cash Collateralization. If (i) any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing or (ii) to the extent and so long as on any Calculation Date (and after giving effect to any prepayment of Borrowings on such Calculation Date) the Aggregate U.S. Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the Total U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment or the Aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the Total Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment, the applicable Borrowers shall, on the Business Day after Terex receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit) thereof and of the amount to be deposited, deposit in an account with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount in cash in the currency determined by the Collateral Agent equal to (x) 102%, in the case of clause (i) above, and (y) 100%, in the case of clause (ii) above, of the L/C Exposure as of such date. Such deposit shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Obligations. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits in Cash Equivalents, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse any Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the applicable Borrowers for the L/C Exposure at such time and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit), be applied to satisfy the Obligations of the applicable Borrowers. 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. If any Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral pursuant to clause (ii) of the first sentence of this paragraph (j), such amount shall be returned to such Borrower from time to time to the extent that the amount of such cash collateral held by the Collateral Agent exceeds the excess, if any, of (A) the sum of the Aggregate U.S. Revolving Credit Exposure and the Aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Exposure over (B) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

107

(k)            Bank Guarantees. If requested by any Borrower and agreed to by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Issuing Bank may issue one or more bank guarantees in lieu of a Letter of Credit, in which event all references in this Agreement to Letters of Credit in connection with the Revolving Credit Commitments shall apply to each such bank guarantee, mutatis mutandis; provided that, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.23(c), if agreed to by the applicable Issuing Bank, any such bank guarantee may expire later than the date that is 24 months after the date of the issuance of such bank guarantee (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, unless such bank guarantee is cash collateralized).

SECTION 2.24. [Reserved].

SECTION 2.25. Reporting Requirements of the Issuing Banks. Within two Business Days following the last day of each calendar month, each Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent shall make available to any Lender upon request) a report detailing all activity during the preceding month with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, including the face amount, the account party, the beneficiary and the expiration date of such Letters of Credit and any other information with respect thereto as may be requested by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 2.26. Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an Issuing Bank under the terms of this Agreement, in each case, subject to terms and conditions agreed to by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and such Lender. Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this Section 2.26 shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the Issuing Bank and such Lender.

108

SECTION 2.27. Incremental Commitments. (a) The Borrowers may, from time to time, by written notice from Terex to the Administrative Agent, request Incremental Term Loan Commitments, one or more additional tranches of revolving commitments (“Other Revolving Commitments”) and/or one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class (each such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase” and, together with any Other Revolving Commitments, the “Incremental Revolving Commitments” and, together with the Incremental Term Loan Commitments, collectively, the “Incremental Commitments”), from one or more Lenders (in the sole discretion of such Lenders) or persons who will become Lenders (collectively, the “Incremental Lenders”), provided that:

(i)            after giving effect to any such Incremental Commitments (in each case assuming the full utilization thereof and the full utilization of any undrawn Incremental Commitments in the form of delayed draw term commitments), the aggregate amount of such Incremental Commitments shall not exceed an amount equal to the sum of (w) the Extension-Based Amount (any incurrence under this clause (w), a “Extension-Based Incremental Facility”), plus (x) the Ratio-Based Amount (any incurrence under this clause (x), a “Ratio-Based Incremental Facility”), plus (y) the Prepayment-Based Amount (any incurrence under this clause (y), a “Prepayment-Based Incremental Facility”), plus (z) the Fixed Amount (any incurrence under this clause (z), a “Fixed Incremental Facility”). Unless Terex elects otherwise, any Incremental Commitments shall be deemed incurred first under the Ratio-Based Incremental Facility, with the balance incurred next under the Extension-Based Incremental Facility (if applicable) next under the Prepayment-Based Incremental Facility and then under the Fixed Incremental Facility;

(ii)            the Incremental Commitments shall rank pari passu in right of payment and with respect to security with any then-existing Class of Loans;

(iii)            subject to the Permitted Maturity Exceptions, any Incremental Term Loans shall not mature earlier than the Latest Maturity Date applicable to U.S. Term Loans and any Incremental Revolving Commitments shall not mature earlier than the Latest Maturity Date applicable to Revolving Credit Commitments (this clause (iii), the “Maturity Limitation”);

(iv)            subject to the Permitted Maturity Exceptions, the Incremental Term Loans shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the U.S. Term Loans (without giving effect to any prepayment that would otherwise modify the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the U.S. Term Loans) (this clause (iv), the “Weighted Average Life Limitation”);

(v)            (x) subject to clause (vii) below, the interest rates (and, in the case of any Incremental Term Loan, subject to clauses (iii) and (iv) above, the amortization schedule) applicable to any such Incremental Term Loans or Other Revolving Commitments shall be determined by Terex and the applicable Incremental Lenders and (y) any such Incremental Revolving Commitments shall not have amortization or scheduled mandatory commitment reductions (other than at the maturity thereof);

109

(vi)            on the effective date of any Incremental Assumption Agreement entered into in connection with any Incremental Commitment (and after giving pro forma effect to any Incremental Commitments made thereunder), (x) no Default or Event of Default (or, in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, no Default or Event of Default under paragraphs (b), (c), (g) and (h) of Article VII shall exist) and (y) the condition set forth in Section 4.02(b) shall be satisfied; provided that in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, such condition may be subject to customary “SunGard” or “certain funds” conditionality and limited to customary “specified representations”;

(vii)            other than Customary Bridge Financings, with respect to any Incremental Term Loans that are broadly syndicated floating rate “term loan B” loans secured on a pari passu basis with the U.S. Term Loans (without regard to remedies) and are made in Dollars on or prior to the date that is twelve months after the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, if the all-in-yield (whether in the form of interest rate margins, including interest rate floors (subject to clause (1) of the proviso in this clause (vii)), credit spread adjustments, upfront fees or OID (equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity or, if shorter, the remaining life to maturity thereof)) with respect to the Incremental Term Loans made thereunder paid by any Borrower to all lenders generally (as determined by Terex) (but excluding any arrangement, commitment, ticking, structuring, syndication, unused line or other similar fees payable by any Borrower in connection therewith, which shall not be included and equated to interest rate and, for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any bona fide arrangement, commitment, ticking, structuring, syndication or similar fees paid by any Borrower to a lender or an Affiliate of a lender in its capacity as a commitment party or arranger and regardless of whether such Indebtedness is syndicated to other third parties) with respect to the Incremental Term Loans made thereunder exceeds the all-in yield (whether in the form of interest rate margins (including the interest rate floors (subject to clause (1) of the proviso in this clause (vii)), credit spread adjustments, upfront fees and OID (equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity or, if shorter, the remaining life to maturity thereof)) paid by any Borrower to all lenders generally in the primary syndication of such U.S. Term Loans (computed in a manner consistent with the foregoing)) with respect to the U.S. Term Loans, as the case may be, by more than 50 basis points (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Incremental Yield Differential”), then, upon the effectiveness of such Incremental Assumption Agreement, the Applicable Percentage then in effect for such U.S. Term Loans denominated in the same currency shall automatically be increased by the Incremental Yield Differential; provided, if the Incremental Term Loans include an interest-rate floor greater than the interest rate floor applicable to such U.S.Term Loans, the differential between such interest rate floors shall be equated to the interest rate margins for purposes of determining whether an increase to the Applicable Percentage shall be required, but only to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor applicable to such U.S. Term Loans would cause an increase in the Applicable Percentage, and in such case the interest rate floor (but not the Applicable Percentage) applicable to such U.S. Term Loans shall be increased to the extent of such differential between interest rate floors; provided further that this Section 2.27(a)(v) shall not apply to any Incremental Term Loan (x) with a final maturity later than one year after the Term Loan Maturity Date, (y) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceeds the greater of $925,000,000 and 100% of Consolidated EBITDA (determined on a pro forma basis as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period) (together with all other outstanding Incremental Term Loans excepted pursuant to this clause (y)), or (z) incurred in connection with any acquisition or similar Investment permitted by this Agreement (this clause (vii), giving effect to the limitations and exclusions contained herein, the “MFN Adjustment”);

110

(viii)         Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Commitments may be denominated in dollars, Pounds, Australian Dollars, Euro or any other freely available currency or currencies approved by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Incremental Lenders;

(ix)            no Incremental Commitments may be in an aggregate principal or committed amount that is less than $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount as shall be the remaining amount of availability under clause (i) or to which the Administrative Agent may reasonably agree);

(x)            (A) no Incremental Commitments may be secured by any assets other than the Collateral and (B) no Incremental Commitments shall be guaranteed by any person other than Terex and the Subsidiary Guarantors (it being understood that Incremental Revolving Commitments may be made available to any Borrower) (this clause (ix), the “Collateral and Guarantee Limitation”); and

(xi)            subject to the foregoing terms of this proviso, the terms of any Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Commitments, if not substantially consistent with the terms of any Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, outstanding or in effect (determined after giving effect to any repayment or prepayment of Loans and termination of Commitments on such date) on the date of the effectiveness of such Incremental Commitments, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being agreed that any terms applicable to such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments that are (A) applicable only after the then-existing Latest Maturity Date for Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, (B) more favorable, taken as a whole, to the Lenders of such Incremental Commitments than those applicable to any then-existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, and are then conformed (or added) to the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders under each such then-existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable and/or (C) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans, consistent with market terms and conditions (when taken as a whole) at the time of incurrence (as reasonably determined by Terex), shall be deemed satisfactory to the Administrative Agent).

All or any portion of Indebtedness originally designated as incurred under the Fixed Incremental Facility, Extension-Based Incremental Facility or the Prepayment-Based Incremental Facility will automatically be reclassified as having been incurred under the Ratio-Based Incremental Facility so long as, at the time of such reclassification, the Borrowers would be permitted to incur the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness being so reclassified under the Ratio-Based Incremental Facility (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall have the effect of increasing availability under the Fixed Incremental Facility, the Extension-Based Incremental Facility or Prepayment-Based Incremental Facility, as applicable, by the amount of such reclassified Indebtedness).

111

(b)            Incremental Term Loan Commitments may provide for the ability to participate on a pro rata, greater than pro rata or less than pro rata basis in any voluntary prepayments of Terms Loans. Incremental Term Loan Commitments may provide for the ability to participate on a pro rata or less than pro rata basis with any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans. Incremental Revolving Commitments may provide for the ability to participate on a pro rata, greater than pro rata or less than pro rata basis in any voluntary prepayments of Revolving Loans. Incremental Revolving Commitments may provide for the ability to participate on a pro rata or less than pro rata basis with any mandatory prepayment of Revolving Loans. Any Revolving Commitment Increase shall be part of the Class of Revolving Facility being increased (it being understood that, if required to consummate the provision of Revolving Commitment Increases, the pricing, interest rate margins, rate floors and commitment fees on the Class of Revolving Credit Commitments being increased may be increased and additional upfront or similar fees may be payable to the lenders providing the Revolving Commitment Increase (without any requirement to pay such fees to any existing Revolving Credit Lenders)). Each notice from Terex to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.27(a) shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments.

(c)            Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Incremental Revolving Commitments may be provided, by any existing Lender or persons who will become Lenders (provided that no existing Lender shall be obligated to provide any portion of any Incremental Facility), in each case on terms permitted in this Section 2.27; provided, that (A) (x) the Administrative Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such Lender’s making such Incremental Revolving Commitments if such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender (or person who will become a Lender) and each Issuing Bank and U.S. Swingline Lender shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such Lender’s making such Incremental Revolving Commitments and (B) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute, accept or acknowledge any Incremental Assumption Agreement or related documentation which contains (by express language or omission) any deviation from the terms of this Section 2.27. In addition, all other terms with respect to any Incremental Term Loan, or Incremental Revolving Commitments, except as set forth above, shall be determined by Terex and the applicable Incremental Lenders. The applicable Borrower and each Incremental Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Commitment of such Lender. Each Incremental Assumption Agreement in respect of Incremental Commitments shall specify the terms of the Incremental Term Loans to be made thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement, this Agreement may be amended to reflect such Incremental Commitments as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section (including any amendments that are not adverse to the interests of any Lender that are made to effectuate changes necessary to enable any Incremental Term Loans that are intended to be fungible with an existing Class of Term Loans to be fungible with such Term Loans, which shall include any amendments to Section 2.11 that do not reduce the ratable amortization received by each Lender thereunder). Except as otherwise specified in this Section 2.27, the effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement shall be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the parties thereto shall agree (the effective date of any such Incremental Assumption Agreement, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”). The Borrowers will use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Commitments for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.

112

(d)            Upon each Revolving Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section 2.27, each Revolving Credit Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Revolving Commitment Increase (each a “Revolving Commitment Increase Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Credit Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and U.S. Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (i) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (ii) participations hereunder in U.S. Swingline Loans held by each Revolving Credit Lender (including each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of all Revolving Credit Lenders represented by such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and if, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase either be prepaid from the proceeds of additional Revolving Loans made hereunder or assigned to a Revolving Commitment Increase Lender (in each case, reflecting such increase in Revolving Credit Commitments, such that Revolving Loans are held ratably in accordance with each Revolving Credit Lender’s pro rata share, after giving effect to such increase), which prepayment or assignment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.21 (it being understood that the foregoing provisions shall apply only to an increase in the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class and not to any additional tranches of Revolving Loans). The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.27(d) shall apply only to such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments that are the same Class as the Incremental Revolving Loans and shall not apply to any other Class of Revolving Loans.

(e)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 2.27 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.17 or 9.08 to the contrary.

SECTION 2.28. Defaulting Lenders. (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i)            Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders.

113

(ii)            Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.06 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or U.S. Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to cash collateralize, in accordance with Section 2.23(j), the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender; fourth, as the applicable Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (A) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (B) cash collateralize, in accordance with Section 2.23(j), the Issuing Banks’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the U.S. Swingline Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, Issuing Bank or U.S. Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to a Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by a Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Disbursements and U.S. Swingline Loans are held by the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata in accordance with their applicable Pro Rata Percentages without giving effect to Section 2.28(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.28(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)            (A) The Facility Fees otherwise payable to any Defaulting Lender in respect of the unused portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments shall not be payable for so long as, and with respect to the period during which, such Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

114

(B)            Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive L/C Participation Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.23(j).

(C)            With respect to any Facility Fee or L/C Participation Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the applicable Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations or U.S. Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Issuing Banks and the U.S. Swingline Lenders, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or U.S. Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv)            All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Disbursements and U.S. Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Pro Rata Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s applicable Revolving Credit Commitment) but only to the extent that (A) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02(b) and 4.02(c) are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the applicable Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time) and (B) such reallocation does not cause the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s applicable Revolving Credit Commitment. Subject to Section 9.24, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from such Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v)            If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the applicable Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (A) first, prepay U.S. Swingline Loans of the applicable Class in an amount equal to the U.S. Swingline Lenders’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Class (after giving effect to any reallocation that may be partially effected under clause (iv) above), and (B) second, cash collateralize, in accordance with Section 2.23(j), the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to any reallocation that may be partially effected under clause (iv) above); provided, that, any cash, or portion thereof, as applicable, provided by a Borrower as cash collateral under this clause (B) shall be promptly released and returned to the applicable Borrower upon the cessation of the circumstances giving rise to the obligation of such Borrower to provide such cash collateral under this clause (B).

115

(b)            If each Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each U.S. Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and U.S. Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their applicable Revolving Credit Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.28(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the applicable Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c)            So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) no U.S. Swingline Lender shall be required to fund any U.S. Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such U.S. Swingline Loan and (ii) no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

SECTION 2.29. Contract Loan Facilities. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Credit Availability Period, any Borrower may enter into one or more Contract Loan Facilities with a Revolving Credit Lender; provided that (i) the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure and the Aggregate Contract Loan Exposure at any time shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, (ii) the sum of the Aggregate U.S. Revolving Credit Exposure and the U.S. Contract Loan Exposure at any time shall not exceed the Total U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment, (iii) the sum of the Aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Exposure and the Aggregate Multicurrency Contract Loan Exposure at any time shall not exceed the Total Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment, and (iv) the Aggregate Contract Loan Exposure at any time shall not exceed $500,000,000. A Revolving Credit Lender’s entry into a Contract Loan Facility with a Borrower, or making of Contract Loans pursuant thereto, shall not reduce availability under such Revolving Credit Lender’s U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, hereunder, except to the extent expressly provided in Section 2.17.

(b)            At least two Business Days prior to its entry into a Contract Loan Facility with a Revolving Credit Lender, the applicable Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent written notice thereof, signed by such Borrower, that specifies the following information: (i) the Revolving Credit Lender counterparty to such Contract Loan Facility, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Contract Loan Commitment thereunder, (iii) whether the Contract Loan Commitments under such Contract Loan Facility shall be U.S. Contract Loan Commitments or Multicurrency Contract Loan Commitments, (iv) the interest rate applicable to the Contract Loans thereunder and (v) the maturity date of such Contract Loan Facility; provided that no Contract Loan shall mature on a date later than the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Not later than 12:00 (noon), Local Time, one Business Day prior to making a borrowing under any Contract Loan Facility, the applicable Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent written notice thereof, signed by such Borrower, that specifies (i) the amount of such borrowing and (ii) the date of such borrowing and, unless notified by the applicable Borrower prior to 9:00 a.m., Local Time, on the proposed date of such borrowing that the request for such borrowing has been revoked or the requested Contract Loan otherwise was not made by the Lender thereunder, the available U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, shall be deemed to have been used in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such requested borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the amount by which its U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, shall be deemed utilized as a result of such Contract Loan.

116

(c)            Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent from the applicable Borrower of notice satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that an outstanding Contract Loan has been repaid in full, the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, deemed utilized in connection with the incurrence of such Contract Loan shall be deemed immediately available (subject in all respects to the other requirements for availability under this Agreement), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the applicable Class thereof; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent to so notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of such availability shall not affect the applicable Borrower’s ability to make use thereof in accordance with this Agreement.

SECTION 2.30. Loan Modification Offers. (a) Terex may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Lenders of one or more Classes of Loans and/or Commitments (each Class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, an “Affected Class”) to make one or more Permitted Amendments pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to Terex. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment(s) and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment(s) is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than five Business Days nor more than 30 Business Days after the date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent). Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans or Commitments of the Lenders of the Affected Class that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders” and such Loans or Commitments, the “Accepted Loans and Commitments”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Loans or Commitments of such Affected Class as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made.

(b)            Each applicable Borrower, each applicable Guarantor and each Accepting Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Loan Modification Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the Permitted Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Loan Modification Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Amendment evidenced thereby and only with respect to the applicable Loans of the Accepting Lenders of the Affected Class, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans of the Accepting Lenders as a new “Class” of Loans hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Permitted Amendment shall become effective under this Section 2.30 unless the Administrative Agent, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions, officer’s and secretary’s certificates and other customary documentation reasonably consistent with those delivered on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date pursuant to Section 6 of Amendment No. 2 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change in counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent).

117

(c)            Subject to Section 2.30(b), Terex may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Loan Modification Agreement that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Loan Modification Offer in Terex’s sole discretion and may be waived by Terex) of Loans or Commitments of any or all applicable Classes accept such Loan Modification Offer.

(d)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 2.30 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.17 or 9.08 to the contrary.

Permitted Amendments” shall mean any or all of the following: (i) an extension of the final maturity date for the applicable Loans or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders, (ii) a decrease in the amortization required for the applicable Loans of the Accepting Lenders, (iii) a change in the Applicable Percentage and/or other fees payable with respect to the applicable Loans or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders, (iv) the inclusion of additional fees to be payable to the Accepting Lenders, (v) such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as shall be appropriate, in the judgment of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, to provide the rights and benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to each new “Class” of Loans resulting therefrom, (vi) such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as shall be necessary or appropriate, in the judgment of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent or as otherwise may be agreed upon by the parties to such Permitted Amendment, to obtain or give effect to the foregoing Permitted Amendments and (vii) any other change not prohibited by Section 2.30 so long as the Accepted Loans and Commitments (a) do not share on a greater than pro rata basis in any mandatory prepayment with the outstanding U.S. Term Loans (in the case of term loans) or Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments (in the case of revolving loans or commitments) and (b) the terms of any Accepted Loans and Commitments, if not substantially consistent with the terms of any Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, outstanding or in effect on the date of the effectiveness of such Accepted Loans and Commitments, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being agreed that any terms applicable to such Accepted Loans and Commitments that are (A) applicable only after the then-existing Latest Maturity Date for Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, (B) more favorable, taken as a whole, to the Lenders of such Accepted Loans and Commitments than those applicable to any then-existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, and are then conformed (or added) to the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders under each such then-existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, and/or (C) in the case of any Accepted Loans and Commitments constituting Term Loans, consistent with market terms and conditions (when taken as a whole) at the time of incurrence (as reasonably determined by Terex), shall be deemed satisfactory to the Administrative Agent).

118

SECTION 2.31. United Kingdom Tax Matters.

(a)            U.K. Taxes. The provisions of this Section 2.31 shall only apply in respect of the U.K. Loan Parties.

(b)            Tax Gross-Up.

(i)              Each U.K. Loan Party shall make all payments to be made by it under any Loan Document without any Tax Deduction unless a Tax Deduction is required by law.

(ii)             Each U.K. Loan Party shall, promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction), notify the Administrative Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Administrative Agent receives such notification from a Lender, it shall promptly notify the applicable U.K. Loan Party.

(iii)            If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by any U.K. Loan Party, the amount of the payment due from such U.K. Loan Party shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required.

(iv)            A payment shall not be increased under clause (iii) above by reason of a Tax Deduction on account of Taxes imposed by Ireland or on account of Excluded Taxes. Further, a payment shall not be increased under clause (iii) above by reason of a Tax Deduction on account of Taxes imposed by the United Kingdom if, on the date on which the payment falls due:

(A)            The payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a U.K. Qualifying Lender but on that date the relevant Lender is not or has ceased to be a U.K. Qualifying Lender, other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or U.K. Tax Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority; or

(B)            the relevant Lender is a U.K. Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of clause (a)(ii) of the definition of U.K. Qualifying Lender, and:

(1)            an officer of H.M. Revenue & Customs has given (and not revoked) a direction (a “Direction”) under section 931 of the ITA which relates to the payment and that Lender has received from the applicable U.K. Loan Party a certified copy of that Direction;

119

(2)            the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction if that Direction had not been made; or

(C)            the relevant Lender is a U.K. Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of clause (a)(ii) of the definition of U.K. Qualifying Lender and:

(1)            the relevant Lender has not given a U.K. Tax Confirmation; and

(2)            the payment could have been made to the Lender without any U.K. Tax Deduction if the Lender had given a U.K. Tax Confirmation, on the basis that the U.K. Tax Confirmation would have enabled the applicable U.K. Loan Party to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an “excepted payment” for the purpose of section 930 of the ITA; or

(D)            the relevant Lender is a U.K. Treaty Lender and the applicable U.K. Loan Party is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under clause (vii) below.

(v)            If any U.K. Loan Party is required to make a Tax Deduction, it shall make that Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

(vi)            Within 30 days of making either a Tax Deduction on account of Taxes imposed by the United Kingdom or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the applicable U.K. Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lender entitled to the payment a statement under section 975 of the ITA or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Lender that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.

(vii)            Subject to Section 2.31(b)(viii) below, where any U.K. Loan Party makes a payment to which a U.K. Treaty Lender is entitled, that U.K. Treaty Lender and such U.K. Loan Party shall co-operate and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete any procedural formalities necessary for such U.K. Loan Party to obtain authorization to make that payment without a Tax Deduction.

(viii)            Nothing in Section 2.31(b)(vii) above shall require a U.K. Treaty Lender to:

(A)            register under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme;

(B)            apply the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to any advance if it has so registered; or

(C)            file applicable treaty forms if it has included an indication to the effect that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme to apply to this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.31(b)(xi) or Section 2.31(b)(xii) below and the applicable U.K. Loan Party has not complied with its obligations under Section 2.31(b)(xiii) below.

120

(ix)            A U.K. Non-Bank Lender which becomes a party on the day on which this Agreement is entered into gives a U.K. Tax Confirmation to the U.K. Loan Parties by entering into this Agreement.

(x)            A U.K. Non-Bank Lender shall promptly notify the U.K. Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent if there is any change in the position from that set out in the U.K. Tax Confirmation.

(xi)            A U.K. Treaty Lender which becomes a party on the day on which this Agreement is entered into that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall include an indication to that effect (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to the U.K. Loan Parties) by including its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence below its name on its signature page to this Agreement.

(xii)            A U.K. Treaty Lender which is a New Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall include an indication to that effect (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to the U.K. Loan Parties) by including its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in the Assignment and Acceptance which it executes on becoming a party to this Agreement.

(xiii)          If a Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme has included an indication to the effect that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.31(b)(xi) or Section 2.31(b)(xii) above, the U.K. Loan Parties shall make a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of that Lender.

(xiv)          If a Lender has not included an indication to the effect that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.31(b)(xi) or Section 2.31(b)(xii) above, the U.K. Loan Parties shall not file any form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Loans or its participation in any Loan.

(xv)           If a Lender assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents and as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment or transfer occurs, any U.K. Loan Party would be obliged to make a payment to the transferee or the assignee under either Section 2.31(b) (Tax Gross-Up) or Section 2.31(c) (Tax Indemnity), then that transferee or assignee is only entitled to receive payment under either Section 2.31(b) or Section 2.31(c) to the same extent as the transferring Lender would have been entitled to receive payment if the assignment or transfer had not occurred. This paragraph (xv) shall not apply:

121

(A)            in respect of an assignment or transfer made in the ordinary course of the primary syndication of the Loans; or

(B)            in relation to Section 2.31(b) (Tax Gross-Up), to a U.K. Treaty Lender that has included a confirmation of its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (b)(xi) or (b)(xii) of Section 2.31(b) if the applicable U.K. Loan Party has not made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of that U.K. Treaty Lender.

(c)            Tax Indemnity.

(i)             The U.K. Loan Parties shall (within five Business Days of demand by the Administrative Agent) pay to a Lender an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Lender determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax by that Lender in respect of a Loan Document.

(ii)            Section 2.31(c)(i) above shall not apply:

(A)            with respect to any Tax assessed on a Lender:

(1)            under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Lender is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Lender is treated as resident for tax purposes; or

(2)            under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Lender’s lending office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,

if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Lender; or

(B)            to the extent a loss, liability or cost:

(1)            is compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.31(b) (Tax Gross-Up), Section 2.32 (Ireland Tax Matters), or Section 2.20 (Taxes);

(2)            would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.31(b) (Tax Gross-Up), Section 2.32 (Ireland Tax Matters), or Section 2.20 (Taxes) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in such Sections applied;

(3)            relates to an Excluded Tax; or

(4)            relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by any U.K. Loan Party or the Administrative Agent.

122

(iii)            A Lender making, or intending to make a claim under Section 2.31(c)(i) above shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim, following which the Administrative Agent shall notify the U.K. Loan Parties.

(iv)            A Lender shall, on receiving a payment from any U.K. Loan Party under Section 2.31(c), notify the Administrative Agent.

(d)            Tax Credit. If any U.K. Loan Party makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Lender determines that (1) a Tax Credit is attributable either to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, to that Tax Payment or to a Tax Deduction in consequence of which that Tax Payment was required; and (2) that Lender has obtained and utilized that Tax Credit, the Lender shall pay an amount to such U.K. Loan Party which that Lender reasonably determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by such U.K. Loan Party.

(e)            Lender Status Confirmation. Each Lender with a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment which is a party to this Agreement on the date of this Agreement shall indicate, below its name on its signature page to this Agreement, and each New Lender with a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment (and any Lender which might otherwise make any advance to a U.K. Loan Party) shall indicate, in the Assignment and Acceptance which it executes on becoming a party (or otherwise in the documentation it executes on committing to make such advance), and in each case for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to the U.K. Loan Parties, which of the following categories it falls within:

(i)             not a U.K. Qualifying Lender;

(ii)            a U.K. Qualifying Lender (other than a U.K. Treaty Lender); or

(iii)            a U.K. Treaty Lender.

If a Lender or a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 2.31(e), then such Lender or New Lender (as applicable) shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by the U.K. Loan Parties) as if it is not a U.K. Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent which category of U.K. Qualifying Lender applies (and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the U.K. Loan Parties). For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment and Acceptance shall not be invalidated by any failure of a New Lender to comply with this Section 2.31(e).

(f)            Stamp Taxes. The U.K. Loan Parties shall pay and, within three Business Days of demand, indemnify each Lender against any cost, loss or liability that Lender incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Loan Document, provided that this Section 2.31(f) shall not apply in respect of an assignment, transfer or other alienation by a Lender of any of its rights and/or obligations under any Loan Documents, other than an assignment, transfer or other alienation made at the request of any Borrower.

(i)            [Reserved].

123

(g)            FATCA Deduction.

(i)             A U.K. Loan Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no U.K. Loan Party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction.

(ii)             Each U.K. Loan Party shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction), notify the party to whom it is making the payment and, in addition, shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders.

SECTION 2.32. Ireland Tax Matters.

(a)             Irish Taxes. The provisions of this Section 2.32 shall only apply in respect of the Irish Loan Parties.

(b)            Tax Gross-Up.

(i)            All payments by an Irish Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without any Tax Deduction, provided that, if an Irish Loan Party is required by Irish law or regulation to make a Tax Deduction, it shall:

(A)            promptly upon becoming aware that the Irish Loan Party must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Administrative Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Administrative Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Irish Loan Party;

(B)            ensure that the Tax Deduction does not exceed the minimum amount legally required;

(C)            pay to the relevant Tax Authority, as appropriate, the full amount of the Tax Deduction;

(D)            furnish to the Lender, within the period for payment of a Tax Deduction permitted by the relevant law, either an official receipt of the relevant Tax Authority concerned on payment to them of amounts so deducted or withheld or, if such receipts are not issued by the Tax Authority concerned on payment to them of amounts so deducted or withheld, a certificate of deduction or equivalent evidence of the relevant Tax Deduction to the reasonable satisfaction of the relevant Lender; and

(E)            if a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by the Irish Loan Party, the amount of the payment due from the Irish Loan Party shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required.

124

(ii)            A payment shall not be increased under clause (b)(i)(E) above by reason of a Tax Deduction on account of Taxes imposed by the United Kingdom or on account of Excluded Taxes. Further, a payment shall not be increased under clause (b)(i)(E) above by reason of a Tax Deduction on account of Tax imposed by Ireland, if on the date on which the payment falls due:

(A)            the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been an Irish Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be an Irish Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or Irish Tax Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority; or

(B)            the relevant Lender is an Irish Treaty Lender and the Irish Loan Party making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without a Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Section 2.32(c).

(iii)            Any Lender which is an Irish Qualifying Lender under paragraph (g) of the definition of Irish Qualifying Lender and which becomes a party hereto on the day on which any Loan Document is entered into confirms that it is an Irish Qualifying Lender in accordance with subclause (f) below.

(iv)            A Lender which gives a confirmation under subclause (b)(iii) above shall promptly notify the applicable Irish Loan Party and the Administrative Agent if there is any change in the position from that set out in the confirmation given by such Lender under clause (b)(iii) above.

(v)            Each Lender shall promptly inform the Administrative Agent, which shall then promptly inform the applicable Irish Loan Party, in the event that such Lender becomes aware that it has ceased to be (or becomes) an Irish Qualifying Lender or an Irish Treaty Lender as result of a change in its own circumstances (excluding for the avoidance of doubt any change by reason of a change in the Tax law or Tax treaties of any country other than the country in which that Lender is incorporated or is tax resident at the time it became a Lender under this Agreement).

(c)            Cooperation. Without prejudice to the obligations of any Irish Loan Party in Section 2.32(b) (Tax Gross-Up), an Irish Treaty Lender and the Irish Loan Party which makes a payment to which that Irish Treaty Lender is entitled, shall cooperate in completing any procedural formalities, such as self-certification forms, necessary for such Irish Loan Party to obtain to make payments without a Tax Deduction.

(d)            Tax Indemnity.

125

(i)             Within five Business Days of demand by the Administrative Agent, the applicable Irish Loan Party shall pay to a Lender an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Lender determines that it has directly or indirectly suffered or will directly or indirectly suffer for or on account of Tax in respect of amounts payable to it under a Loan Document.

(ii)            Section 2.32(d)(i) shall not apply:

(A)            with respect to any Tax assessed on a Lender:

(1)            under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Lender is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Lender is treated as resident for tax purposes; or

(2)            under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Lender’s lending office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,

if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Lender; or

(B)            to the extent that a loss, liability or cost:

(1)            is compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.32(b) (Tax Gross-Up), Section 2.31 (United Kingdom Tax Matters), or Section 2.20 (Taxes); or

(2)            would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.32(b)(i)(E) (Tax Gross-Up), Section 2.31 (United Kingdom Tax Matters), or Section 2.20 (Taxes), but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in such Sections applied;

(3)            relates to an Excluded Tax; or

(4)            relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by the Irish Loan Party or the Administrative Agent;

(iii)            A Lender making, or intending to make, a claim under this Section 2.32(d) (Tax Indemnity), shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the event which has caused (or will cause) that claim, following which the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Irish Loan Party.

(iv)            If a Lender assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents and as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment or transfer occurs, any Irish Loan Party would be obliged to make a payment to the transferee or the assignee under either Section 2.31(b) (Tax Gross-Up) or Section 2.32(d) (Tax Indemnity), then that transferee or assignee is only entitled to receive payment under either such sections to the same extent as the transferring Lender would have been entitled to receive payment if the assignment or transfer had not occurred. This paragraph (iv) shall not apply in respect of an assignment or transfer made in the ordinary course of the primary syndication of the Loans.

126

(e)            Tax Credit. If an Irish Loan Party makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Lender determines that (i) a Tax Credit is attributable to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, to that Tax Payment or to a Tax Deduction in consequence of which that Tax Payment was required; and (ii) that Lender has obtained and utilized that Tax Credit, the Lender shall pay an amount to such Irish Loan Party which that Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by such Irish Loan Party, and this shall, to the extent permissible by applicable law, be treated as a repayment to such Irish Loan Party.

(f)             Lender Status Confirmation. A Lender which makes a Loan to the European Borrower (or any other Borrower that is then an Irish Loan Party), and which is an Irish Qualifying Lender, within paragraph (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) or (j) only of that definition, shall deliver to the applicable Irish Loan Party a confirmation by such Lender that the person beneficially entitled to interest payable to such Lender in respect of a Loan made to such Irish Loan Party is an Irish Qualifying Lender (an “Irish Tax Confirmation”). An Irish Qualifying Lender within paragraph (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) or (j) only of that definition which becomes a party hereunder on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date shall deliver an Irish Tax Confirmation to the applicable Irish Loan Party in connection with its delivery of its signature page to this Agreement; provided that any such Lender that has previously delivered to the applicable Irish Loan Party an Irish Tax Confirmation pursuant to the Original Credit Agreement, which Irish Tax Confirmation remains accurate, shall be deemed to have satisfied such requirement. If, following an assignment, or transfer or a participation (in the latter case, in circumstances where the Participant wishes, in accordance with Section 9.04(f) to be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 of a Lender’s rights or obligations hereunder), an Irish Qualifying Lender within paragraph (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) or (j) only of that definition becomes a party hereunder or becomes a Participant after the day on which this Agreement is entered into, such Lender or Participant shall deliver an Irish Tax Confirmation to Terex and the applicable Irish Loan Party on or prior to becoming a party hereunder. An Irish Qualifying Lender, within paragraph (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) or (j) only of that definition, shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, Terex and the applicable Irish Loan Party if there is any change in the position from that set out in any relevant Irish Tax Confirmation. If a Lender or a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 2.32(f), then such Lender or New Lender (as applicable) shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by the applicable Irish Loan Parties) as if it is not an Irish Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent which category of Irish Qualifying Lender applies (and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the applicable Irish Loan Party). For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment and Acceptance shall not be invalidated by any failure of a New Lender to comply with this Section 2.32(f). A Lender, upon request from an Irish Loan Party from time to time, shall as soon as reasonably practicable provide such information as may be required for the purposes of Sections 891A, 891E, 891F and 891G TCA (and any regulations made thereunder).

127

(g)            Stamp Taxes. The applicable Irish Loan Party shall pay and, within three Business Days of demand, indemnify each Lender against any cost, loss or liability the Lender incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Loan Document, provided that this Section 2.32(g) shall not apply in respect of an assignment, transfer or other alienation by a Lender of any of its rights and/or obligations under any Loan Documents, other than an assignment, transfer or alienation made at the request of any Borrower.

(i)            [Reserved].

(h)            FATCA Deduction.

(i)            Each Irish Loan Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no Irish Loan Party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction.

(ii)            Each party shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction), notify the Lender to whom it is making the payment and, in addition, shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall notify the other Loan Parties.

SECTION 2.33. Refinancing Facilities. (a) The Borrowers may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request the establishment hereunder of (i) a new Class of revolving commitments (the “Refinancing Revolving Commitments”) pursuant to which each Person providing such a commitment (a “Refinancing Revolving Lender”), which may include any existing Lender (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion), will make revolving loans to the applicable Borrower or Borrowers (“Refinancing Revolving Loans”) and acquire participations in the applicable Letters of Credit and U.S. Swingline Loans and (ii) one or more additional Classes of term loan commitments (the “Refinancing Term Loan Commitments”), pursuant to which each Person providing such a commitment (a “Refinancing Term Lender”) will make term loans to the applicable Borrowers (the “Refinancing Term Loans”); provided that (A) each Refinancing Revolving Lender and each Refinancing Term Lender shall not be an Ineligible Assignee and shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and (B) each Refinancing Revolving Lender shall be subject to the approval of each applicable Issuing Bank and each applicable U.S. Swingline Lender (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), in each case, to the extent such consent, if any, would be required pursuant to Section 9.04 for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, to such Refinancing Revolving Lender and such Refinancing Term Lender, as applicable.

128

(b)            The Borrowers and each Refinancing Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Refinancing Facility Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Refinancing Commitments of each Refinancing Lender. Such Refinancing Facility Agreement shall set forth, with respect to the Refinancing Commitments established thereby and the Refinancing Loans and other extensions of credit to be made thereunder, to the extent applicable: (i) the designation of such Refinancing Commitments and Refinancing Loans as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder, (ii) the stated termination and maturity dates applicable to the Refinancing Commitments or Refinancing Loans of such Class; provided that, subject to the Permitted Maturity Exceptions, such stated termination and maturity dates shall not be earlier than (x) the maturity date then in effect with respect to the applicable Class of Revolving Credit Commitments being so refinanced (in the case of Refinancing Revolving Commitments and Refinancing Revolving Loans) or (y) the earlier of (A) the maturity date then in effect with respect to the applicable Class of Term Loans being so refinanced and (B) the latest maturity date of any Class of U.S. Term Loans then outstanding (in the case of Refinancing Term Loan Commitments and Refinancing Term Loans), (iii) subject to the Permitted Maturity Exceptions, any Refinancing Term Loans shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity no shorter than the shorter of (x) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the applicable Class of Term Loans being so refinanced and (y) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the U.S. Term Loans (without giving effect to any prepayment that would otherwise modify the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the U.S. Term Loans), (iv) the interest rate or rates applicable to the Refinancing Loans of such Class, (v) the fees applicable to the Refinancing Commitment or Refinancing Loans of such Class, (vi) in the case of any Refinancing Term Loans, any original issue discount applicable thereto, (vii) the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods applicable to Refinancing Loans of such Class, (viii) any voluntary or mandatory commitment reduction or prepayment requirements applicable to Refinancing Commitments or Refinancing Loans of such Class (which prepayment requirements, (x) in the case of any Refinancing Term Loans, may provide that such Refinancing Term Loans may participate (i) in the case of any mandatory prepayment, on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis with the U.S. Term Loans, but not a greater than pro rata basis with the U.S. Term Loans and (ii) in the case of any voluntary prepayment, on a pro rata basis, greater than pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis with the U.S. Term Loans and (y) in the case of any Refinancing Revolving Loans may participate (i) in the case of any mandatory prepayment, on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis with any then-existing Class of Revolving Loans, but not a greater than pro rata basis with any then-existing Class of Revolving Loans and (ii) in the case of any voluntary prepayment, on a pro rata basis, greater than pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis with any then-existing Class of Revolving Loans) and any restrictions on the voluntary or mandatory reductions or prepayments of Refinancing Commitments or Refinancing Loans of such Class and (ix) in the case of any Refinancing Revolving Commitments, the Alternative Currencies, if any, available thereunder. Except as contemplated by the preceding sentence, the terms of any Refinancing Term Loans and Refinancing Revolving Commitments, if not substantially consistent with the terms of any Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, outstanding or in effect (determined after giving effect to any repayment or prepayment of Loans and termination of Commitments on such date) on the date of the effectiveness of such Refinancing Commitments, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being agreed that any terms applicable to such Refinancing Term Loans or Refinancing Revolving Commitments that are (A) applicable only after the then-existing Latest Maturity Date for Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, (B) more favorable, taken as a whole, to the Lenders of such Refinancing Commitments than those applicable to any then-existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, and are then conformed (or added) to the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders under each such then-existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable and/or (C) in the case of any Refinancing Term Loans, consistent with market terms and conditions (when taken as a whole) at the time of incurrence (as reasonably determined by Terex), shall be deemed satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Facility Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Facility Agreement, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Refinancing Facility Agreement (including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder).

129

(c)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Refinancing Commitments shall become effective under this Section 2.33 unless (i) on date of such effectiveness, the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02(b) and 4.02(c) shall be satisfied, (ii) to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other customary closing certificates reasonably consistent with those delivered on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, (iii) in the case of any Refinancing Revolving Commitments, substantially concurrently with the effectiveness thereof, all the Revolving Credit Commitments of a Class then in effect shall be terminated, and all the Revolving Loans then outstanding thereunder, together with all interest thereon, and all other amounts accrued for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders of such Class, shall be repaid or paid (it being understood, however, that, with the written consent of the applicable Issuing Bank, any Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank may continue to be outstanding under the Refinancing Revolving Commitments), and the aggregate amount of such Refinancing Revolving Commitments does not exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments so terminated and (iv) in the case of any Refinancing Term Loan Commitments, substantially concurrently with the effectiveness thereof, the applicable Borrower shall obtain Refinancing Term Loans thereunder and shall repay or prepay then outstanding Term Borrowings of any Class in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Refinancing Term Loan Commitments (less the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such outstanding Term Borrowings and any reasonable fees, premium and expenses relating to such refinancing) (and any such prepayment of Term Borrowings of any Class shall be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of Term Borrowings of such Class to be made pursuant to Section 2.11 on a pro rata basis).

SECTION 2.34. VAT.

(a)            All amounts expressed in a Loan Document to be payable by any party to any Lender 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 subsection (b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender to any party under a Loan Document, on provision of a valid VAT invoice, by the Lender to the party, that party shall pay to the Lender (in addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT.

130

(b)            If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender (the “Supplier”) to any other Lender (the “Recipient”) under a Loan Document, and any party other than the Recipient (the “Subject Party”) is required by the terms of any Loan Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration), such Subject Party shall also pay to the Supplier (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT). The Recipient will promptly pay to the Subject Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment obtained by the Recipient from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines is in respect of such VAT. Where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT the Subject Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT.

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

(d)            Any reference in this Section 2.34 to any Person shall, at any time when such Person is treated as a member of a group or unity (or fiscal unity) 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 Value Added Tax Act 1994 or in any analogous legislation enacted in any jurisdiction other than the United Kingdom, and to include, in Ireland, the group member notified by the Revenue Commissioners in accordance with section 15(1)(a)(i) VATCA as being the member responsible for complying with the provisions of that Act in respect of the group).

ARTICLE III

Such financial statements present fairly in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations and cash flows of Terex and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods. Such balance sheets and the notes thereto disclose all material liabilities, direct or contingent, of Terex and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof required to be reflected in accordance with GAAP.

(a) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.09, there are not any actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity or by or before any Governmental Authority now pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, threatened against or affecting Terex or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any business, property or rights of any such person that would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)            None of Terex or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their respective material properties or assets is in violation of, nor will the continued operation of their material properties and assets as currently conducted violate, any law, rule or regulation (including any zoning, building, Environmental Law, ordinance, code or approval or any building permits) or any restrictions of record or agreements affecting the Mortgaged Property, or is in default with respect to any judgment, writ, injunction, decree or order of any Governmental Authority, where such violation or default would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

133

SECTION 3.10. Agreements. Neither Terex nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is in default in any manner under any provision of any indenture or other agreement or instrument evidencing Indebtedness, or any other material agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets are or may be bound, where such default would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)            No part of the proceeds of any Loan or any Letter of Credit will be used, whether directly or indirectly, and whether immediately, incidentally or ultimately, for any purpose that entails a violation of, or that is inconsistent with, the provisions of the regulations of the Board, including Regulation T, U or X.

SECTION 3.15. No Material Misstatements. Other than forward-looking information and information of a general economic or industry-specific nature, none of (a) the Lender Presentation or (b) any other information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule furnished by or on behalf of any Borrower in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of any Loan Document or included therein or delivered pursuant thereto, when taken as a whole, contained, contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material of fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements were, are or will be made when taken as a whole (giving effect to supplements from time to time thereto); provided that to the extent any such information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule was based upon or constitutes a forecast or projection, such Borrower represents only that such forecasts and projections have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by Terex to be reasonable at the time made and at the time such information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule has been furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (it being understood that such forecasts and projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond Terex’s control, such forecasts and projections by their nature are inherently uncertain and no assurances are being given that the results reflected in such forecasts or projections will be achieved and actual results may differ from the forecasts and projections and such differences may be material).

SECTION 3.16. Employee Benefit Plans. (a) Except as would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, each of Terex and its ERISA Affiliates is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all benefit liabilities under each Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plan) did not, as of December 31, 2023, exceed the fair market value of the assets of each Plan, and the present value of all benefit liabilities of all underfunded Plans (based on those assumptions used to fund each such Plan) did not, as of December 31, 2023, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans, in each case, by an amount that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)            Each Non-U.S. Pension Plan is in compliance in all material respects with all requirements of law applicable thereto and the respective requirements of the governing documents for such plan except to the extent such non-compliance would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. With respect to each Non-U.S. Pension Plan, none of Terex, its Affiliates or any of its directors, officers, employees or agents has engaged in a transaction which would subject Terex or any of its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to a tax or civil penalty which would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to each Non-U.S. Pension Plan, reserves have been established in the financial statements furnished to Lenders in respect of any unfunded liabilities in accordance with applicable law and prudent business practice or, where required, in accordance with ordinary accounting practices in the jurisdiction in which such Non-U.S. Pension Plan is maintained. The aggregate unfunded liabilities with respect to such Non-U.S. Pension Plans would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; the present value of the aggregate accumulated benefit liabilities of all such Non-U.S. Pension Plans (based on those assumptions used to fund each such Non-U.S. Pension Plan) did not, as of December 31, 2023, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such Non-U.S. Pension Plans, by an amount that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. There are no actions, suits or claims (other than routine claims for benefits) pending or threatened against Terex or any of its Affiliates with respect to any Non-U.S. Pension Plan which would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

135

SECTION 3.17. Environmental Matters. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.17:

(a)            the real properties owned, leased or operated by each of Terex and its Subsidiaries (the “Properties”) do not contain any Hazardous Materials in amounts or concentrations which (i) constitute a violation of, (ii) require Remedial Action under, or (iii) would reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, Environmental Laws, which violations, Remedial Actions and liabilities, in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

(b)            the Properties and all operations of each of Terex and its Subsidiaries are in compliance in all material respects, and in the last five years have been in compliance in all material respects, with all Environmental Laws, and all necessary Environmental Permits required of Terex or its Subsidiaries for such Properties and operations have been obtained and are in effect, except to the extent that such non-compliance or failure to obtain any necessary permits, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

(c)            there have been no Releases or threatened Releases at, from, under or on the Properties or otherwise in connection with the current or former operations of Terex or its Subsidiaries, which Releases or threatened Releases, in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

(d)            neither Terex nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice of an Environmental Claim in connection with the Properties or the current or former operations of Terex or such Subsidiaries or with regard to any person whose liabilities for environmental matters Terex or such Subsidiaries has retained or assumed, in whole or in part, contractually, by operation of law or otherwise, which, in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, nor do Terex or its Subsidiaries have reason to believe that any such notice will be received or is being threatened; and

(e)            (i) Hazardous Materials have not been transported from the Properties, nor have Hazardous Materials been generated, treated, stored or disposed of at, on or under any of the Properties, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any liabilities under any Environmental Law, and (ii) neither Terex nor any of its Subsidiaries has contractually or by operation of law retained or assumed any liability with respect to the generation, treatment, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii), which liabilities, in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

136

SECTION 3.18. Insurance. Each of Terex and its Restricted Subsidiaries has insurance in such amounts and covering such risks and liabilities as are in accordance with normal industry practice.

SECTION 3.19. Security Documents. (a) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, upon execution and delivery thereof by the parties thereto, will create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) and the proceeds thereof and (i) when the Pledged Stock (other than Uncertificated Foreign Securities, Uncertificated Limited Liability Company Interests and Uncertificated Partnership Interests) and the Pledged Debt Securities (as each such term is defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) are delivered to the Collateral Agent together with the proper endorsements, the Lien created under Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected first priority Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Pledged Stock and Pledged Debt Securities to the extent that the laws of the United States or any state thereof govern the creation and perfection of any such security interest, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Lien or right of any other person other than as permitted hereunder or any other Loan Document or applicable Law, and (ii) when financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a) and all applicable filing fees have been paid, the Lien created under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement will constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Collateral (other than Intellectual Property, as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) to the extent such security interest may be perfected by the filing of a UCC financing statement, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Lien or right of any other person, other than as permitted hereunder or any other Loan Document or applicable Law.

(b)            With respect to the Intellectual Property (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) in which Terex, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Collateral Agent have agreed that the Collateral Agent may record the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (or a short-form security agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Terex and the Collateral Agent) with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office (the “Perfection Intellectual Property”), as applicable, upon the recordation of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (or such short-form security agreement) with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, and the payment of all applicable fees, together with the financing statements in appropriate form filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a), the Lien created under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in the Perfection Intellectual Property shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Perfection Intellectual Property to the extent that a security interest may be perfected by filing in the United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark Office, in each case prior and superior in right to any other person, other than with respect to the rights of persons as permitted hereunder or any other Loan Document or applicable Law.

137

(c)            The Mortgages, upon the execution and delivery thereof by the parties thereto, will create in favor of the Collateral Agent, subject to the exceptions listed in each insurance policy covering such Mortgage, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable Lien on all of the Loan Parties’ right, title and interest in and to the Mortgaged Property thereunder and the proceeds thereof, and when the Mortgages referred to in this Section 3.19(c) are recorded in the offices specified in Schedule 3.19(c) and all applicable fees have been paid, the Mortgages will constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Mortgaged Property and the proceeds thereof, in each case prior and superior in right to any other person, other than with respect to the rights of persons as permitted hereunder or any other Loan Document or applicable Law.

SECTION 3.20. Location of Material Owned Real Property. Schedule 3.20 lists completely and correctly as of the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date all Material Owned Real Property and the addresses thereof. Terex and the Subsidiary Guarantors own in fee all the real property set forth on Schedule 3.20.

SECTION 3.21. Labor Matters. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.21, as of the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, there are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against Terex or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, threatened, except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The hours worked by and payments made to employees of Terex and its Restricted Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Federal, state, local or non-U.S. law dealing with such matters, which violations, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, all payments due from Terex or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or for which any claim may be made against Terex or any such Restricted Subsidiary, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of Terex or such Restricted Subsidiary.

138

SECTION 3.23. Sanctions, Anti-Terrorism and Anti-Bribery Laws. (a) (i) None of the Borrowers, any of their respective subsidiaries or any of their respective directors or officers nor, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, any agent, employee or Affiliate of any of the foregoing is (A) a Person on the list of “Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons” or any other sanctions list maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Treasury Department (“OFAC”) or the European Union, (B) the subject of any sanctions administered by OFAC, the U.S. State Department, the European Union, or His Majesty’s Treasury, the United Nations or other relevant sanctions authority, including sanctions that prohibit all or substantially all imports and exports between the United States of America and another country, region or territory (currently Crimea, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, the Zaporizhzhia and Kherson Regions of Ukraine and the so-called Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics) (collectively, “Sanctions”), (C) located in, or organized under the laws of, any country, region or territory that is the subject of any country-, region- or territory-wide Sanctions except to the extent such presence is permitted pursuant to applicable law, or (D) more than 50% owned by any Person that is the subject of Sanctions.

(b)            Each Loan Party and its subsidiaries is in compliance, in all material respects, with (i) the Trading with the Enemy Act, the International Emergency and Economic Powers Act and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V) and any other enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto, (ii) the USA PATRIOT Act and (iii) the applicable anti-terrorism laws, rules and regulations of jurisdictions where the Borrowers and their Affiliates conduct business from time to time (collectively, “Anti-Terrorism Laws”).

Each Credit Event shall be deemed to constitute the making of a representation and warranty by each Borrower on the date of such Credit Event as to the matters specified in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 4.02; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt the conversion or continuation of an existing Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.10 does not constitute a Credit Event under this Section 4.02 and shall not result in a making of any representation and warranty by any Borrower on the date thereof as to the conditions contained in this Section 4.02.

ARTICLE V

Affirmative Covenants

Each Borrower covenants and agrees with each Lender that so long as this Agreement shall remain in effect and until the Commitments have been terminated and the principal of and interest on each Loan, all Fees and all other expenses or amounts payable under any Loan Document shall have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification and reimbursement obligations not then due and payable) and all Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired or have been cash collateralized or backstopped in a manner satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank and all amounts drawn thereunder have been reimbursed in full, unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise consent in writing, each Borrower will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to:

(b)            Cause all such policies of Terex or any Material U.S. Restricted Subsidiary to be endorsed or otherwise amended to include a “standard” or “New York” lender’s loss payable endorsement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent.

142

(e)            [Reserved].

(f)             In connection with the covenants set forth in this Section 5.02, it is understood and agreed that:

(i)              none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, or their respective agents or employees shall be liable for any loss or damage insured by the insurance policies required to be maintained under this Section 5.02, it being understood that (A) each Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall look solely to their insurance companies or any other parties other than the aforesaid parties for the recovery of such loss or damage and (B) such insurance companies shall have no rights of subrogation against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their agents or employees. If, however, the insurance policies do not provide waiver of subrogation rights against such parties, as required above, then each Borrower hereby agrees, to the extent permitted by law, to waive its right of recovery, if any, against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their agents and employees; and

(ii)             the designation of any form, type or amount of insurance coverage by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders under this Section 5.02 shall in no event be deemed a representation, warranty or advice by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders that such insurance is adequate for the purposes of the business of any Borrower and its Subsidiaries or the protection of their properties and the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Required Lenders shall have the right from time to time to require the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties to keep other insurance in such form and amount as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably request; provided that such insurance shall be obtainable on commercially reasonable terms.

SECTION 5.03. Obligations and Taxes. Unless failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, pay its Indebtedness and other obligations promptly and in accordance with their terms and pay and discharge promptly when due all material Taxes imposed upon it or upon its income or profits or in respect of its property, before the same shall become delinquent or in default, as well as all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies or otherwise that, if unpaid, would reasonably be expected to give rise to a Lien upon such properties or any part thereof; provided, however, that such payment and discharge shall not be required with respect to any such obligation or Taxes so long as the validity or amount thereof shall be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the applicable Borrower shall have set aside on its books reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP and such contest operates to suspend collection of the contested obligation or Taxes and enforcement of a Lien and, in the case of a Mortgaged Property, there is no risk of forfeiture of such property.

143

SECTION 5.04. Financial Statements, Reports, etc. In the case of Terex, furnish to the Administrative Agent for distribution by the Administrative Agent to each Lender:

(a)            within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, its consolidated balance sheets and related statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows showing the financial condition of Terex and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the close of such fiscal year and the results of its operations and the operations of such Subsidiaries during such year, all audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP or other independent public accountants of recognized national standing or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders and accompanied by an opinion of such accountants (which opinion shall not be subject to qualification as to scope or contain any “going concern” qualification or exception (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any “emphasis of matter” or similar paragraph or explanatory statement) other than with respect to (i) the maturity of any Indebtedness, (ii) any potential inability to satisfy any financial covenant on a future date or for a future period, (iii) any breach of any financial covenant, or (iv) the activities, operations, financial results, assets or liabilities of any Unrestricted Subsidiary) to the effect that such consolidated financial statements fairly present the financial condition and results of operations of Terex and its consolidated Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP consistently applied;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, documents required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 5.04 (or to the extent any such documents are included in materials otherwise filed with the SEC) may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date on which such documents are posted on Terex’s internet or intranet website, if any, to which each Lender and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or the Platform); provided that Terex shall notify (which may be by facsimile or electronic mail) the Administrative Agent of the posting of any such documents described in this paragraph and provide to the Administrative Agent by electronic mail electronic versions (i.e., soft copies) of such documents to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent.

146

SECTION 5.10. Preparation of Environmental Reports. If an Event of Default caused by reason of a breach of Section 3.17 or 5.09 shall have occurred and be continuing, at the reasonable request of the Required Lenders through the Administrative Agent, provide to the Lenders within 45 days after such request, at the expense of the applicable Borrower, an environmental site assessment report for any such Properties which are the subject of such default, prepared by an environmental consulting firm reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and indicating the likely presence or absence of any Hazardous Materials and any Remedial Action or any other activity required to bring such Properties into compliance with Environmental Laws, in each case, in connection with such Event of Default at such Properties.

SECTION 5.11. Further Assurances. (a) Execute any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all further action (including filing UCC and other financing statements, mortgages and deeds of trust) that may be required under Schedule 5.11 or under applicable law, or that the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to effectuate the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and in order to grant, preserve, protect and perfect the validity and first priority of the security interests created or intended to be created by the Security Documents.

In addition, from time to time, Terex and the Subsidiary Guarantors will, at their cost and expense, promptly secure the Obligations by pledging or creating, or causing to be pledged or created, perfected security interests with respect to such of their assets and properties acquired after the Original Closing Date as would constitute Collateral under any Security Document (it being understood that it is the intent of the parties that the Obligations shall be secured by, among other things, substantially all the U.S. assets of Terex and the Subsidiary Guarantors (including Material Owned Real Property and other U.S. assets acquired subsequent to the Original Closing Date and 100% of the non-voting Equity Interests (if any) and 65% of the voting Equity Interests in each Material First Tier Non-U.S. Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary Holdco, but excluding (i) any assets as to which the Administrative Agent shall determine in its reasonable discretion that the costs of obtaining a security interest in the same are excessive in relation to the benefit to the Lenders of the security intended to be afforded thereby, (ii) any assets of a type specifically excluded as Collateral under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, (iii) any voting Equity Interests in any Non-U.S. Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary Holdco, in each case in excess of 65% of the total combined voting power of such Non-U.S. Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary Holdco)), (iv) any asset for which the granting of a security interest therein would reasonably be expected to result in adverse tax consequences (that are not de minimis) as reasonably determined in good faith by Terex in consultation with the Administrative Agent and (v) any other asset of an Excluded Subsidiary or that constitutes an Excluded Asset. Such security interests and Liens will be created under the Security Documents and other security agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust and other instruments and documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, and Terex shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent all such instruments and documents (including legal opinions, flood hazard determination forms, evidence of any insurance required by Section 5.02, if any (including flood or earthquake insurance, if applicable), surveys, title insurance policies (including any endorsements thereto) and lien searches) as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request to evidence compliance with this Section. In furtherance of the foregoing, Terex will give prompt notice to the Administrative Agent of (A) the acquisition by it or any Subsidiary Guarantor of any Material Owned Real Property, (B) any U.S. Subsidiary becoming a Material U.S. Restricted Subsidiary (or of the circumstances described in the proviso to the definition of the term “Material U.S. Restricted Subsidiary”) and (C) any Non-U.S. Subsidiary becoming a Material First Tier Non-U.S. Subsidiary.

147

(b)            In the case of Terex and the Subsidiary Guarantors, notify the Collateral Agent in writing of any change within 30 days (or such longer period as the Collateral Agent shall agree) in respect of (i) its legal name, (ii) its jurisdiction of organization, (iii) its chief executive office or (iv) its Federal Taxpayer Identification Number.

(c)            Within the applicable time periods set forth on Schedule 5.11, execute and deliver such documents and take such actions as required thereby.

SECTION 5.12. FCPA; OFAC; PATRIOT ACT. (a) Comply with all applicable Sanctions, Anti-Terrorism Laws and Anti-Bribery Laws in all material respects and (b) maintain policies, procedures, and internal controls reasonably designed to ensure compliance with all applicable Sanctions, Anti-Terrorism Laws and Anti-Bribery Laws (it being understood that any such covenant applicable to any Non-U.S. Subsidiary will be subject to applicable requirements of law and to the extent such Non-U.S. Subsidiary cannot comply with any such covenant, then such Non-U.S. Subsidiary shall instead comply with the comparable local laws applicable to it in its jurisdiction of organization).

SECTION 5.13. People with Significant Control Regime. Within the relevant timeframe, comply with any notice it receives pursuant to Part 21A of the United Kingdom Companies Act 2006 from any company incorporated in the United Kingdom (and any equivalent or analogous notice received from any company incorporated outside the United Kingdom) whose shares are subject to any security under the Security Documents and promptly provide the Collateral Agent with a copy of that notice.

(x)             Swap Obligations incurred not for speculative purposes.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.01, in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt or is entitled to be incurred as Ratio Debt, Terex shall, in its sole discretion, at the time of incurrence, divide and/or classify, or at any later time redivide and/or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in one or more of the categories (including in part in one category and in part in another category set forth in this Section 6.01 (including Ratio Debt or pursuant to Section 6.01(u))). Other than with respect to Section 6.01(c), if at any time that Terex would be entitled to have incurred any then-outstanding item of Indebtedness as Ratio Debt or pursuant to Section 6.01(u)(ii), such item of Indebtedness shall be automatically reclassified into an item of Indebtedness incurred as Ratio Debt or pursuant to Section 6.01(u)(ii). For the avoidance of doubt, Indebtedness incurred under Section 6.01(c) shall be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to such respective clause (even if such Indebtedness has been refinanced pursuant to Section 6.01(m)) and shall not be permitted to be reclassified and shall be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to such specific subclause and shall not be permitted to be reclassified as Indebtedness incurred under the other subclause thereof. Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness, provided that the incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this Section 6.01. In no event shall the accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value or the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness be deemed to be outstanding Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 6.01.

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency will be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed or incurred (whichever yields the lowest U.S. dollar-equivalent), in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to extend, replace, refund, refinance, renew or defease other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such extension, replacement, refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such extension, replacement, refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being extended, replaced, refunded, refinanced, renewed or defeased. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to extend, replace, refund, refinance, renew or defease other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being extended, replaced, refunded, refinanced, renewed or defeased, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such extension, replacement, refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance.

153

SECTION 6.02. Liens. Create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien on any property or assets (including stock or other securities of any person, including any Restricted Subsidiary) now owned or hereafter acquired by it, except:

(a)            Liens on property or assets of any Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries existing on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date and set forth in Schedule 6.02; provided that such Liens shall secure only those obligations which they secure on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date;

(b)            any Lien created under the Loan Documents (including any Liens incurred pursuant to Sections 2.27, 2.30 or 2.33 and such Liens securing Hedging Agreements, Bank Products and Cash Management Services under the Loan Documents);

(c)            any Lien existing on any property or asset prior to the acquisition thereof by any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided that (i) such Lien is not created in contemplation of or in connection with such acquisition, (ii) such Lien does not apply to any other property or assets of any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary and (iii) such Lien does not (A) materially interfere with the use, occupancy and operation of any Mortgaged Property, (B) materially reduce the fair market value of such Mortgaged Property but for such Lien or (C) result in any material increase in the cost of operating, occupying or owning or leasing such Mortgaged Property;

(d)            Liens for taxes not yet due or which are being contested in compliance with Section 5.03;

(e)            carriers’, warehousemen’s, mechanics’, materialmen’s, repairmen’s, landlord’s or other like Liens arising in the ordinary course of business and securing obligations that are not due and payable or which are being contested in compliance with Section 5.03;

(f)            pledges and deposits made in the ordinary course of business in compliance with workmen’s compensation, unemployment insurance and other social security laws or regulations;

(g)            (i) deposits to secure the performance of bids, trade contracts (other than for Indebtedness), leases (other than Capital Lease Obligations), statutory obligations, surety and appeal bonds, performance bonds and other obligations of a like nature incurred in the ordinary course of business and (ii) Liens on the receivables of any Non-U.S. Subsidiary to secure Indebtedness of such Non-U.S. Subsidiary in respect of performance bonds and similar obligations in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the foreign currency equivalent of $200,000,000 at any one time outstanding;

Engage at any time in any business or business activity other than the Related Business; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the fact that Finsub is an Unrestricted Subsidiary, Terex shall not permit (a) Finsub to engage in any trade or business, or otherwise conduct any activity, other than the exercise of its rights and the performance of its obligations pursuant to the Receivables Program and other incidental activities and (b) the sum of (i) the aggregate amount advanced by all special purpose trusts, funding vehicles and other persons (other than Terex and the Restricted Subsidiaries) to Finsub in respect of the Trade Receivables and Equipment Receivables owned by Finsub at any time when the Total Net Leverage Ratio exceeds 3.75 to 1.00, plus (ii) the aggregate amount of any Limited Recourse Receivables Financings consummated at any time when the Total Net Leverage Ratio exceeds 3.75 to 1.00, to exceed $2,000,000,000; provided that, at the time of any such advancements to Finsub or the consummation of any such Limited Recourse Receivables Financings, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom. For avoidance of doubt, the aggregate amount advanced by all special purpose trusts, funding vehicles and other persons (other than Terex and the Restricted Subsidiaries) to Finsub in respect of the Trade Receivables and Equipment Receivables owned by Finsub at any time when the Total Net Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 3.75 to 1.00, plus (ii) the aggregate amount of any Limited Recourse Receivables Financings consummated at any time when the Total Net Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 3.75 to 1.00, is unlimited.

Make any distribution, whether in cash, property, securities or a combination thereof, other than regular scheduled payments of principal and interest as and when due (to the extent not prohibited by applicable subordination provisions), in respect of, or pay, or directly or indirectly redeem, repurchase, retire or otherwise acquire for consideration, or set apart any sum for the aforesaid purposes, any Subordinated Indebtedness for borrowed money (other than the Loans) of any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or pay in cash any amount in respect of such Subordinated Indebtedness that may at the obligor’s option be paid in kind or in other securities (collectively, “Restricted Debt Payments”), except that (i) Terex and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be permitted to do any of the foregoing with the Net Cash Proceeds of any issuance of Equity Interests of Terex or Refinancing Indebtedness, (ii) Terex and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be permitted to do any of the foregoing if all of the following conditions are satisfied: (x) at the time of such distribution or payment and after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would arise as a result thereof and (y) either (A) immediately after giving effect to such distribution or payment, the Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be less than or equal to 3.75 to 1.00 or (B) the aggregate amount of all such distributions or payments made pursuant to this clause (ii) at any time when the Total Net Leverage Ratio exceeds 3.75 to 1.00 would not exceed $300,000,000, (iii) Terex may at any time repay Indebtedness of any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary solely in Equity Interests of Terex, (iv) in connection with any Asset Sale permitted by Section 6.05, the prepayment of any Indebtedness that is secured by a Lien on the assets subject to such Asset Sale shall be permitted, (v) Terex may, or any Restricted Subsidiary of Terex may, make cash payments on its Indebtedness at such times and in such amounts as are necessary so that such Indebtedness will not have “significant original issue discount” and thus will not be treated as an “applicable high yield discount obligation” (“AHYDO”) within the meaning of Section 163(i) of the Code and (vi) Terex may make Restricted Debt Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed, as of any applicable date of determination, the amount available under the Available Amount measured immediately prior to the making of such Restricted Debt Payment provided that, to the extent Terex attributes such amount to the Available Amount Builder, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom.

SECTION 6.10. First Lien Net Leverage Ratio. If on the last day of any Test Period (commencing with the Test Period in respect of the first full fiscal quarter following the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date), the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure (but excluding, (i) for the first eight fiscal quarters ended after the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, any Revolving Loans used to fund OID payable on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, (ii) all Letters of Credit that have been backstopped in a manner satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank or Cash Collateralized in accordance with this Agreement and (iii) undrawn Letters of Credit in an aggregate face amount not to exceed $20,000,000) exceeds 30% of the Total Revolving Credit Commitments, without the written consent of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, permit the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of such date to be greater than 3.00 to 1.00.

SECTION 6.11. Fiscal Year. Permit the fiscal year of Terex to end on a day other than December 31 without the consent of the Administrative Agent.

166

SECTION 6.12. Designation of Subsidiaries. Terex may at any time designate any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Borrower) as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that (a) immediately before and after such designation, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from such designation and (b) immediately after giving effect to such designation and any Investments made or Liens or Indebtedness incurred as a result thereof, Terex shall be in compliance on a pro forma basis with the covenant set forth in Section 6.10 recomputed as of the last day of its most recently ended fiscal quarter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Terex may not designate a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if, at the time of such designation (and, thereafter, any Unrestricted Subsidiary shall cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary automatically if) (i) such Restricted Subsidiary or any of its subsidiaries is a “restricted subsidiary” or a “guarantor” (or any similar designation) for any other Indebtedness of Terex or any Restricted Subsidiary in an aggregate principal amount exceeding $200,000,000 or (ii) such Restricted Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries owns any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of, or holds any Lien on any property of, Terex or any Restricted Subsidiary. The designation of any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall constitute an Investment by the parent of such Subsidiary therein at the time of designation in an amount equal to the fair market value (as reasonably determined by Terex) of such parent’s Investment therein. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute (A) the incurrence at the time of designation of any Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time, (B) the making of an Investment by such Subsidiary in any Investments of such Subsidiary existing at such time, and (C) a return on the Investment of the parent of such Subsidiary in such Subsidiary equal to the lesser of (I) the amount of such Investment immediately prior to such designation and (II) the fair market value (as reasonably determined by Terex) of the net assets of such Subsidiary at the time of such designation. Prior to any designation made in accordance with this Section 6.12, Terex shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer certifying that the designation satisfies the applicable conditions set forth in this Section 6.12.

ARTICLE VII

In case of the happening of any of the following events (“Events of Default”):

(a)            any representation or warranty made or deemed made in or in connection with any Loan Document or the borrowings or issuances of Letters of Credit hereunder, or any representation, warranty, statement or information contained in any report, certificate, financial statement or other instrument furnished in connection with or pursuant to any Loan Document, shall prove to have been false or misleading in any material respect when so made, deemed made or furnished (subject, in the case of any representation or warranty that is capable of remedy, to a grace period of thirty days after the earlier of (i) the knowledge of a Responsible Officer of such inaccuracy and (ii) receipt by Terex of written notice thereof from the Administrative Agent);

(b)            default shall be made in the payment of any principal of any Loan or the reimbursement with respect to any L/C Disbursement when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the due date thereof or at a date fixed for prepayment thereof or by acceleration thereof or otherwise;

(c)            default shall be made in the payment of any interest on any Loan or any Fee or L/C Disbursement or any other amount (other than an amount referred to in paragraph (b) above) due under any Loan Document, when and as the same shall become due and payable, and such default shall continue unremedied for a period of three Business Days after notice;

(e)            default shall be made in the due observance or performance by any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any covenant, condition or agreement contained in any Loan Document (other than those specified in paragraph (b), (c) or (d) above) and such default shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days after notice thereof from the Administrative Agent or any Lender to Terex;

(g)            an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or an involuntary petition shall be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction seeking (i) relief in respect of any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary), or of a substantial part of the property or assets of any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary), under Title 11 of the United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter amended, or any other Federal, state or non-U.S. bankruptcy, insolvency, examinership, receivership, administration or similar law, (ii) the appointment of a receiver, trustee, examiner, administrator, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or similar official for any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary) or for a substantial part of the property or assets of any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary) or (iii) the winding-up or liquidation of any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary); and such proceeding or petition shall continue undismissed for 60 days or an order or decree approving or ordering any of the foregoing shall be entered;

168

(h)            any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary) shall (i) voluntarily commence any proceeding or file any petition seeking relief under Title 11 of the United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter amended, or any other Federal, state or non-U.S. bankruptcy, insolvency, examinership, receivership, administration or similar law, (ii) consent to the institution of, or fail to contest in a timely and appropriate manner, any proceeding or the filing of any petition described in paragraph (g) above, (iii) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, administrator, examiner, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or similar official for any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary) or for a substantial part of the property or assets of any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary), (iv) file an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against it in any such proceeding, (v) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (vi) become unable, admit in writing its inability or fail generally to pay its debts as they become due or (vii) take any action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing;

(i)             one or more judgments for the payment of money the aggregate amount (which is not (x) covered by insurance or (y) covered by valid third party indemnification obligation from a third party which is solvent and which third party has been notified of the claim under such indemnification obligation and not disputed that it is liable for such claim) is in excess of the greater of $150,000,000 and 15% of Consolidated EBITDA determined on a pro forma basis as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period shall be rendered against any Borrower, any Restricted Subsidiary or any combination thereof and the same shall remain undischarged for a period of 60 consecutive days during which execution shall not be effectively stayed, vacated, discharged or bonded pending appeal within 60 consecutive days from the entry thereof;

(j)             an ERISA Event shall have occurred that, in the opinion of the Required Lenders, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events, would reasonably be expected to result in liability of any Borrower and its ERISA Affiliates in an aggregate amount exceeding the greater of $150,000,000 and 15% of Consolidated EBITDA determined on a pro forma basis as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period;

(k)            any Guarantee under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement for any reason shall cease to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with its terms) or any Guarantor shall deny in writing that it has any further liability under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (other than as a result of the discharge of such Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents);

(l)             any security interest purported to be created by any Security Document with respect to a material portion of the Collateral shall cease to be, or shall be asserted by any Borrower or any other Loan Party not to be, a valid, perfected, first priority (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or such Security Document) security interest in the securities, assets or properties covered thereby, except to the extent that any such loss of perfection or priority results from the failure of the Collateral Agent to maintain possession of certificates representing securities pledged under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and except to the extent that such loss is covered by a lender’s title insurance policy and the related insurer promptly after such loss shall have acknowledged in writing that such loss is covered by such title insurance policy; or

169

(m)            there shall have occurred a Change in Control;

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to any Borrower described in paragraph (g) or (h) above), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Required Lenders (or, in the case of a Financial Covenant Default, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders), may, and at the request of the Required Lenders (or, in the case of a Financial Covenant Default, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders) shall, by notice to Terex, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times:  (i) terminate forthwith the Commitments and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Borrowers accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding; and in any event with respect to any Borrower described in paragraph (g) or (h) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Borrowers accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if any Default or Event of Default results from any action or the occurrence of any event that has been disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent or disclosed in Terex’s public filings on Forms 8-K, 10-Q or 10-K and filed with the SEC or in Terex’s financial statements delivered pursuant to Sections 5.04(a) or (b), and two years have passed since the date of such disclosure (an “Uncalled Default”), the Administrative Agent may not (and the Lenders shall not request that the Administrative Agent) exercise any rights or remedies provided under the Loan Documents with respect to such Uncalled Default; provided that such two year limitation shall not apply if the Administrative Agent or the Lenders have commenced any remedial action in respect of any such Default or Event of Default.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent

In order to expedite the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, UBS AG, Stamford Branch, is hereby appointed to act as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (for purposes of this Article VIII, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are referred to collectively as the “Agents”). Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, and each assignee of any such Lender or Issuing Bank, hereby irrevocably authorizes the Agents to take such actions on behalf of such Lender, Issuing Bank or assignee and to exercise such powers as are specifically delegated to the Agents by the terms and provisions hereof and of the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and (i) the Program Receivables and (ii) assets (including loans, leases, chattel paper and other obligations) sold by Terex Financial Services in the ordinary course of its business and, in each case, the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents.

170

Neither Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) neither Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) neither Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that such Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.08), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, neither Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.08) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by Terex or a Lender, and neither Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper person. Each Agent may also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Each Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (“Related Parties”). The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

171

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, either Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and Terex. 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 Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by Terex to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Terex and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 acting as Agent.

Any resignation by UBS AG, Stamford Branch as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Article VIII shall also constitute its resignation as an Issuing Bank and as U.S. Swingline Lender, in which case the resigning Administrative Agent (x) shall not be required to issue any further Letters of Credit or make any additional U.S. Swingline Loans hereunder and (y) shall maintain all of its rights as Issuing Bank or U.S. Swingline Lender, as the case may be, with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it, or U.S. Swingline Loans made by it prior to the date of such resignation; provided that such resignation as Issuing Bank shall be subject to and conditioned upon another Issuing Bank hereunder (which may be another Person reasonably acceptable to Terex that becomes an Issuing Bank in connection therewith) having agreed to provide U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments in an amount equal to the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of UBS AG, Stamford Branch, as resigning Issuing Bank, or in such other amount as otherwise agreed by Terex. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent, (i) such successor (if any) shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank and U.S. Swingline Lender, (ii) the retiring Issuing Bank and U.S. Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and (iii) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue Letters of Credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make (or the Borrowers shall enter into) other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

With respect to the Loans made by it hereunder, each Agent in its individual capacity and not as Agent shall have the same rights and powers as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the Agents and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent.

172

Each Lender agrees (a) to reimburse the Agents, on demand, in the amount of its pro rata share (based on the sum of its aggregate available Commitments and outstanding Loans hereunder) of any expenses incurred for the benefit of the Lenders by the Agents, including reasonable counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, that shall not have been reimbursed by any Borrower (and without limiting any such Borrower’s obligation to do so) and (b) to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and any of its directors, officers, employees or agents, on demand, in the amount of such pro rata share, from and against any and all liabilities, taxes, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against it in its capacity as Agent or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent the same shall not have been reimbursed by any Borrower or any other Loan Party (and without limiting any such Borrower’s or any such Loan Party’s obligation to do so); provided that no Lender shall be liable to an Agent or any such other indemnified person for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees or agents. Each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to reimburse each of the Issuing Banks and their directors, employees and agents, in each case, to the same extent and subject to the same limitations as provided above for the Agents.

Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, (b) in participating as a Lender or an Issuing Bank, it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and in providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in each case in the ordinary course of business, and not for the purpose of investing in the general performance or operations of Terex and its Restricted Subsidiaries, or for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument such as a security (and each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing, such as a claim under the federal or state securities law) and (c) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks by the Administrative Agent herein, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or any Issuing Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Borrowers, the Guarantors or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent or any of its Related Parties.

173

Without limiting the foregoing, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Agents on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. In the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition, and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties at such sale or other disposition. Each Secured 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 Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the foregoing provisions. The provisions of this paragraph are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in such proceeding.

If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party (any such Lender, Issuing Bank, Secured Party or other recipient, a “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 were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Issuing Bank, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this paragraph shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If a Payment Recipient receives any payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise and does not receive a corresponding payment notice or payment advice, such payment, prepayment or repayment shall be presumed to be in error absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary.

174

Each Lender, Issuing Bank and Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under the immediately preceding paragraph or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

For so long as an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) has not been returned by any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”) to the Administrative Agent after demand therefor in accordance with the provisions of this Article VIII, (i) the Administrative Agent may elect, in its sole discretion on written notice to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, that all rights and claims of such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party with respect to the Loans or other Obligations owed to such Person up to the amount of the corresponding Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency in respect of such Erroneous Payment (the “Corresponding Loan Amount”) shall immediately vest in the Administrative Agent upon such election; after such election, the Administrative Agent (x) may reflect its ownership interest in Loans in a principal amount equal to the Corresponding Loan Amount in the Register, and (y) upon five Business Days’ written notice to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, may sell such Loan (or portion thereof) in respect of the Corresponding Loan Amount, and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party (and/or against any Payment Recipient that receives funds on its behalf), and (ii) each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold such Loan, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party with respect to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (such rights, the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”). For the avoidance of doubt, no vesting or sale pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or Issuing Bank and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from a Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

No Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and each hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, 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 Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

175

Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Article VIII with respect to the making of any Erroneous Payment shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Loan Document, each of the Joint Bookrunners is named as such for recognition purposed only, and in their respective capacities as such shall have no duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; it being understood and agreed that each of the Joint Bookrunners shall be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of the Agents provided herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limitation of the foregoing, none of the Joint Bookrunners in their respective capacities as such shall, by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender, Loan Party or any other person.

The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any Intercreditor Agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of, or supplements or other modifications to, any such agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement) in connection with the incurrence of any First Lien Debt or any Junior Lien Debt. Each Lender and other Secured Party hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement.

Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in any Security Document, no Swap Counterparty or provider of Cash Management Services that obtains the benefits of Section 5.02 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, any Guarantee or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guarantee or any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under any agreement to provide Cash Management Services and Swap Obligations unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable provider of Cash Management Services or Swap Counterparty, as the case may be.

Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, each of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Loan Document, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, at the direction of the Required Lenders or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof.

Each Borrower hereby agrees, unless directed otherwise by the Administrative Agent, that it will, or will cause the Subsidiaries to, provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents or to the Lenders under Article V, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (a) is or relates to a Borrowing Request, a notice pursuant to Section 2.10 or a notice requesting the issuance, amendment, extension or renewal of a Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.23, (b) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (c) provides notice of any Default or Event of Default under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (d) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any Borrowing or other extension of credit hereunder (all such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium that is properly identified in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent to an electronic mail address as directed by the Administrative Agent.

177

Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) the Administrative Agent will make available to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrowers hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on SyndTrak, Intralinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Terex or its securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). Each Borrower hereby agrees that (i) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (ii) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to Terex or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 9.17); (iii) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated as “Public Investor”; and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not marked as “Public Investor”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Borrower Materials shall be marked “PUBLIC”, unless Terex notifies the Administrative Agent reasonably in advance of the intended distribution that any such document contains material non-public information: (A) the Loan Documents and (B) notification of changes in the terms of the credit facilities provided for herein.

Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to Communications that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to Terex or its securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws.

178

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES WARRANTS THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND 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.

The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by it at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to it for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that receipt of notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

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

SECTION 9.02. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by any Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Issuing Banks and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans and the issuance of Letters of Credit by the Issuing Banks, regardless of any investigation made by the Lenders or the Issuing Banks or on their behalf, 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 or any other Loan Document or the Additional L/C Facility is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit or Additional Letter of Credit is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not been terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20, 2.31, 2.32 and 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank.

SECTION 9.03. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective in accordance with the terms set forth in the Restatement Agreement.

179

SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

(b)            Each Lender may assign to one or more assignees (other than any Ineligible Assignee) all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, however, that (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or the Agents or an Affiliate of such Lender or the Agents or an Approved Fund (unless the proposed assignment is of a Revolving Credit Commitment), (x) Terex (unless an Event of Default under paragraphs (b), (c), (g) or (h) of Article VII shall have occurred and be continuing) and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of any assignment of a Revolving Credit Commitment, the Issuing Banks and the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender) must give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned (it being understood and agreed that (1) Terex’s withholding of consent to any assignment to a Disqualified Lender shall not be considered to be unreasonably withheld and (2) Terex shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after having received notice thereof)) and (y) the amount of the Commitment or Loans, as applicable, of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Commitment or Loans, as applicable); provided that contemporaneous assignments by or to two or more Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of determining such minimum amount, (ii) the parties to each such assignment shall electronically execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance), together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent) and (iii) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and all applicable tax forms. For purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” shall mean, with respect to any Lender that is a fund or other entity that invests in bank loans, any other fund or other entity that invests in bank loans which is managed or advised by the same investment advisor/manager as such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor/manager. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, which effective date shall be at least five Business Days after the execution thereof (or such earlier date to which the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion), (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an 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 2.14, 2.16, 2.20, 2.31, 2.32 and 9.05, as well as to any Fees accrued for its account and not yet paid).

180

(c)            By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows:  (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of any Borrower or any Subsidiary or the performance or observance by any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is not an Ineligible Assignee and that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee represents and warrants that it is not the subject of any Sanctions; (v) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 3.05 or delivered pursuant to Section 5.04 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (vi) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vii) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, respectively, by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (viii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d)            The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Collateral Agent 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 Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank (provided that any such Issuing Bank may only inspect entries relating to the Revolving Credit Commitments), the Collateral Agent and any Lender (provided that any such Lender may only inspect any entry relating to such Lender’s Commitments and Loans), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

181

(e)            Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above and, if required, the written consent of Terex, the applicable U.S. Swingline Lender, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent to such assignment and any applicable tax forms, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (e).

(f)            (i) Each Lender may without the consent of any Borrower, any U.S. Swingline Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than to a Disqualified Lender) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20, 2.31 and 2.32 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Sections 2.20(f) and (g) (it being understood that the documentation required thereunder shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if they were Lenders (but, with respect to any particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender that sold the participation to such participant, 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) and (iv) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrowers relating to the Loans or L/C Disbursements and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing any fees payable to such participating bank or person hereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans in which such participant bank or person has an interest, extending any scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest on the Loans in which such participant bank or person has an interest, releasing any Guarantor (other than in connection with the sale of such Guarantor in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05) or all or substantially all of the Collateral or increasing or extending the Commitments).

(ii)            Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”), which entries shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The participating 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.

182

(g)            Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to any Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of any Borrower; provided that, prior to any such disclosure of Information (as defined in Section 9.17) which Information is confidential pursuant to Section 9.17, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of such confidential information on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.17.

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

(i)             No Borrower shall assign or delegate any of its rights or duties hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void.

(j)             Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, (i) any SPC may (x) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (y) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC, and (ii) the protections afforded to any SPC pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.04(j) may not be amended or modified without the written consent of such SPC.

(k)            In the event that (i) any Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender or (ii) S&P, Moody’s and Thompson’s BankWatch (or Insurance Watch Ratings Service, in the case of Lenders that are insurance companies (or Best’s Insurance Reports, if such insurance company is not rated by Insurance Watch Ratings Service)) shall, after the date that any Lender becomes a Revolving Credit Lender, downgrade the long-term certificate deposit ratings of such Lender, and the resulting ratings shall be below BBB-, Baa3 and C (or BB, in the case of a Lender that is an insurance company (or B, in the case of an insurance company not rated by Insurance Watch Ratings Service)) (or, with respect to any Revolving Credit Lender that is not rated by any such ratings service or provider, any Issuing Bank shall have reasonably determined that there has occurred a material adverse change in the financial condition of any such Revolving Credit Lender, or a material impairment of the ability of any such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, as compared to such condition or ability as of the date that any such Lender became a Revolving Credit Lender), then each Issuing Bank shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its own expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to replace (or to request Terex to use its reasonable efforts to replace) such Lender with an assignee (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above), and such Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above) all its interests, rights and obligations in respect of its Revolving Credit Commitment to such assignee; provided, however, that (i) no such assignment shall conflict with any law, rule and regulation or order of any Governmental Authority and (ii) the applicable Issuing Bank or such assignee, as the case may be, shall pay to such Lender in immediately available funds on the date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made by such Lender hereunder and all other amounts accrued for such Lender’s account or owed to it hereunder.

(l)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) any Lender may, at any time, assign all or any portion of its Term Loans to Terex or the applicable Borrower, and (ii) Terex or the applicable Borrower may, from time to time, purchase Term Loans, in each case, on a non-pro rata basis through (x) Dutch auction procedures open to all Lenders of the applicable Class on a pro rata basis in accordance with customary procedures to be agreed between Terex and the Administrative Agent or (y) open market purchases or other privately negotiated purchases; provided that in connection with any assignment and purchase pursuant to this Section 9.04(l):

(A)            no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such assignment or shall result therefrom;

(B)            any Term Loans purchased by a Borrower shall, without further action by any person, be deemed canceled and no longer outstanding (and may not be resold) for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to (i) the making of, or the application of, any payments to the Lenders under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the making of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (iii) any determination of the Required Lenders;

184

(m)            The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) where this Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits thereto) or any Assignment and Acceptance would otherwise operate as an assignment of a debt due from the Australian Borrower, there shall not be an assignment of such debt; (ii) the transaction shall for all purposes take effect as a loan under this Agreement to the Australian Borrower made by the Lender which, but for this clause, would have been an assignee of such debt (“Incoming Lender”) of an amount equal to the outstanding debt which would, but for this clause, have been assigned; (iii) the Australian Borrower shall for all purposes be treated by the parties hereto as having directed the Incoming Lender to pay the amount of that loan to the Lender, which but for this clause, would have been the assignor of such debt; (iv) all references in this Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto) and any Assignment and Acceptance will be construed accordingly; and (v) to the extent that the assignment also operates to assign any rights or interests which are not a debt due from the Australian Borrower, the assignment shall, to that extent, take effect in accordance with its terms.

SECTION 9.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) Terex agrees to pay all (i) reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Affiliate of the foregoing persons in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein and the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions hereby or thereby contemplated shall be consummated), including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, and a firm of local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction (and, if reasonably necessary, one special counsel) and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Joint Bookrunners, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks, the U.S. Swingline Lenders or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of their rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, as applicable, including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one firm of counsel and one firm of local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction for such parties taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel and one additional local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction for all such affected parties (so long as such shared representation is consistent with and permitted by professional responsibility rules)).

185

(b)            Terex agrees to indemnify the Joint Bookrunners, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Lender (including the U.S. Swingline Lenders), each Issuing Bank, each Affiliate of any of the foregoing persons and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, members, partners and advisors (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one firm of counsel and one firm of local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction (and, if reasonably necessary, one special counsel) for each of the Joint Bookrunners, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, and one firm of counsel and one firm of local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction (and, if reasonably necessary, one special counsel) for all of the Lenders taken as a whole (and, solely in the case of an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel for each affected Indemnitee) incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit, (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by a Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates or equityholders, or (iv) any actual or alleged presence, Release or threat of Release of Hazardous Materials on any Properties, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to any Borrower or the Subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (w) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (x) arising from a material breach of the obligations of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties under any of the Loan Documents, (y) any dispute solely among Indemnitees and not arising out of any act or omission of a Borrower or any of its Affiliates (other than any proceeding against any Indemnitee solely in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Issuing Bank, U.S. Swingline Lender, Joint Bookrunner or any similar role with respect to the credit facilities provided for herein or (z) any acts or omissions by Persons other than Terex or any of its Subsidiaries or their Related Parties with respect to any real property after the Collateral Agent sells such real property pursuant to a foreclosure or has accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure with respect thereto). No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. This Section 9.05(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. Terex shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding indemnifiable pursuant to this Section 9.05(b) effected without Terex’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), but if settled with Terex’s prior written consent, or if there is a final, non-appealable judgment in any such proceeding, Terex agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee to the extent and in the manner set forth above. Terex shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnitee, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding against such Indemnitee in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnitee, unless such settlement (a) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (b) does not include any statement as to any admission of fault or culpability by or on behalf of such Indemnitee.

186

(c)            To the extent permitted by applicable law, (x) no Borrower shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, and (y) none of the Agents, Issuing Banks or Lenders or any other Indemnitee shall assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Borrower, in each case on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that the foregoing shall not limit any obligation Terex may have to indemnify an Indemnitee as otherwise provided in this Section 9.05 or in any similar provision of any Loan Document, against any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnitee by a third party.

(d)            The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or an Issuing Bank. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.06. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, except to the extent prohibited by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any of and all the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) subject to Section 9.23, all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.28 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees to notify Terex and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

187

SECTION 9.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH LETTER OF CREDIT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OR RULES DESIGNATED IN SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT, OR IF NO SUCH LAWS OR RULES ARE DESIGNATED, THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS AND PRACTICE FOR DOCUMENTARY CREDITS MOST RECENTLY PUBLISHED AND IN EFFECT, ON THE DATE SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT WAS ISSUED, BY THE INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE (THE “UNIFORM CUSTOMS”) AND, AS TO MATTERS NOT GOVERNED BY THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 9.08. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or an Issuing Bank in exercising any power or right 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 Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any Borrower in any case shall entitle such Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

188

(b)            Except as expressly provided by Section 2.27, 2.30 or 2.33 or in the other paragraphs of this Section 9.08, and subject to Section 9.19, neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders (or, in the case of (i) Section 6.10 and any related provisions hereof (solely as they relate to Section 6.10), (ii) amendments or modifications to the definition of “Required Revolving Credit Lenders” or (iii) waivers of any condition precedent to any Revolving Credit Borrowing set forth in Section 4.02, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders); provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) decrease the principal amount of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan or any date for reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby (except (x) in connection with the waiver of any interest payable pursuant to Section 2.07 (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders) and (y) that any amendment or modification of the definition of “First Lien Net Leverage Ratio” (or the defined terms used therein) shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this paragraph (b) (it being understood that (1) the waiver of or amendment to the terms of any mandatory prepayment of the Loans or (2) a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Article IV or the waiver of any Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Loans or Commitments, in each case shall not constitute a postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest or an extension or increase of any Loan or Commitment of any Lender)), (ii) increase or extend the Commitment or decrease or extend the date for payment of any Fees or any other amount due and payable hereunder to any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) subject to Sections 2.27, 2.30, 2.33 and 9.04(l), amend or modify the pro rata requirements of Section 2.17, the sharing provisions of Section 2.18, the provisions of Section 9.04(i), the provisions of this Section 9.08, or release Terex as a Guarantor or release all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees or release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of each Lender, (iv) change the provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms materially adversely affects the contractual rights in respect of payments due to Revolving Credit Lenders holding Revolving Credit Commitments of one Class differently from the rights of Lenders holding Loans of any other Class (giving effect to the revolving nature of such adversely affected Class) without the prior written consent of the Required Facility Lenders of each adversely affected Class, (v) modify the protections afforded to an SPC pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.04(j) without the written consent of such SPC, (vi) reduce the percentage contained in the definition of the term “Required Lenders”, or impose additional material restrictions on the ability of the Lenders to assign their rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, without the prior written consent of each Lender (it being understood that with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Term Loan Commitments and Revolving Credit Commitments on the date hereof), or (vii) change the currency in which any Commitment or Loan is denominated, without the prior written consent of each Lender of the affected Class; provided further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any U.S. Swingline Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such Issuing Bank or such U.S. Swingline Lender, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with the consent of Terex, each applicable Borrower, each applicable Guarantor and the Accepting Lenders, this Agreement (including Section 2.17) may be amended to the extent expressly contemplated by Sections 2.27, 2.30 and 2.33 (provided that the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may effect such amendments to this Agreement, any Intercreditor Agreement (or enter into any Intercreditor Agreement or any replacement thereof) and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the terms of the actions contemplated by Sections 2.27, 2.30 and 2.33). For the avoidance of doubt, but subject to Section 9.19, no Secured Party shall have any voting rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in its capacity as an Additional L/C Issuing Bank or Contract Loan Revolving Lender.

(c)            [Reserved].

189

(d)            Amendments and waivers of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that affect solely the Lenders under any applicable Class (including waiver or modification of conditions to extensions of credit under such Class, the availability and conditions to funding of such Class, and pricing and other modifications) will require only the consent of Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate commitments or loans (or such greater amount as set forth in the proviso to paragraph (b)) (such Lenders, the “Required Facility Lenders”), as applicable, under such Class, and, in each case, (x) no other consents or approvals shall be required and (y) any fees or other consideration payable to obtain such amendments or waivers need only be offered on a pro rata basis to the Lenders under the affected Class.

(e)            This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers to add any terms or conditions for the benefit of Lenders (or any Class thereof); provided that such amendment is not adverse to any other Class of Lenders.

(f)            The Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may amend any Loan Document to correct any mistakes, defects, inconsistencies, ambiguities, errors or omissions, or to effect administrative changes that are not adverse to any Lender; provided, however, that no such amendment shall become effective until the fifth Business Day after it has been posted to the Lenders, and then only if the Required Lenders have not objected in writing thereto within such five Business Day period.

SECTION 9.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation in any L/C Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan or participation in such L/C Disbursement 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 or participation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan or participation 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 or participation but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.09 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or participations 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 9.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any other previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto and thereto, the respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees (as defined in Section 9.05(b)) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

190

SECTION 9.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

SECTION 9.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 9.13. Counterparts; Electronic Signatures. Each Loan Document may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties thereto on different counterparts), including both paper and electronic counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Any signature to any Loan Document may be delivered by facsimile, electronic mail (including pdf) or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 or the New York Electronic Signature and Records Act or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Each of the parties represents and warrants to the other parties that it has the corporate or analogous capacity and authority to execute the Loan Documents to which it is a party through electronic means and there are no restrictions for doing so in that party’s constitutive documents.

SECTION 9.14. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

191

SECTION 9.15. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined only in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to the exercise of rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral against any Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction where such Collateral is located.

(b)            Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(c)            Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01; provided, however, that each Subsidiary Borrower hereby appoints Terex as its agent for service of process. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 9.16. Conversion of Currencies. (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b)            The obligations of each party in respect of any sum due to any other party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, such party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Loan Parties contained in this Section 9.16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

192

SECTION 9.17. Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Issuing Bank and each of the Lenders agrees to keep confidential (and to use its best efforts to cause its respective agents and representatives to keep confidential) the Information (as defined below) and all copies thereof, extracts therefrom and analyses or other materials based thereon, except that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender shall be permitted to disclose Information (a) to such of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, Affiliates and representatives, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors, and numbering, administration and settlement service providers, as need to know such Information, (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or self-regulatory body (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes any Tax Authority) (provided such authority or body shall be advised of the confidential nature of the Information), (c) to the extent otherwise required by applicable laws and regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) in connection with any suit, action or proceeding relating to the enforcement of its rights hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, (e) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty (or its Affiliates) is not a competitor of Terex or any of its Subsidiaries and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 9.17 or substantially similar confidentiality undertakings), (f) on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the credit facilities provided for herein, (g) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.17 or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or the Collateral Agent on a non-confidential basis from a source other than any Borrower or (h) to the extent such disclosure is permitted pursuant to, and made in accordance with the terms of, Section 9.04(g). For the purposes of this Section, “Information” shall mean all financial statements, certificates, reports, agreements and information (including all analyses, compilations and studies prepared by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender based on any of the foregoing) that are received from any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and related to any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, any shareholder of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any employee, customer or supplier of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, other than any of the foregoing that were available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure thereto by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and which are in the case of Information provided after the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, either financial information or clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. The provisions of this Section 9.17 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration and term of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.18. European Monetary Union. If, as a result of the implementation of European monetary union, (a) any currency ceases to be lawful currency of the nation issuing the same and is replaced by the Euro, then any amount payable hereunder by any party hereto in such currency shall instead be payable in Euro and the amount so payable shall be determined by translating the amount payable in such currency to Euro at the exchange rate recognized by the European Central Bank for the purpose of integrating such currency into the Euro, or (b) any currency and the Euro are at the same time recognized by the central bank or comparable authority of the nation issuing such currency as lawful currency of such nation, then (i) any Loan made at such time shall be made in Euro and (ii) any other amount payable by any party hereto in such currency shall be payable in such currency or in Euro (in an amount determined as set forth in clause (a)), at the election of the obligor. Prior to the occurrence of the event or events described in clause (a) or (b) of the preceding sentence, each amount payable hereunder in any currency will continue to be payable only in that currency. Each Borrower agrees, at the request of the Required Lenders, at the time of or at any time following the integration of any additional currency into the Euro, to enter into an agreement amending this Agreement in such manner as the Required Lenders shall reasonably request in order to avoid any unfair burden or disadvantage resulting therefrom and to place the parties hereto in the position they would have been in had such integration not occurred, the intent being that neither party will be adversely affected economically as a result of such integration and that reasonable provisions may be adopted to govern the borrowing, maintenance and repayment of Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency after the occurrence of the event or events described in clause (a) or (b) of the preceding sentence.

SECTION 9.19. Rights of Additional L/C Issuing Banks and Contract Loan Revolving Lenders. Without the consent of each Additional L/C Issuing Bank or each Revolving Credit Lender that has an outstanding Contract Loan Commitment or Contract Loan (each such Revolving Credit Lender, a “Contract Loan Revolving Lender”), the Borrowers and the Lenders shall not enter into, consent to or approve of any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document if, as a result of such amendment, waiver or modification, (a) any Additional L/C Issuing Bank or Contract Loan Revolving Lender, as applicable, would no longer be entitled to its ratable share in the benefits of the Collateral, (b) all or substantially all of the Collateral would be released or (c) all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees under the Loan Documents would be released, and any such attempted amendment, modification or waiver shall be null and void. Each Additional L/C Issuing Bank and each Contract Loan Revolving Lender shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this Section 9.19 and shall be deemed to have issued Additional Letters of Credit or made Contract Loans, as applicable, in reliance on this Section 9.19. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, no Additional L/C Issuing Bank or, except as provided in the definition of Required Lenders, Contract Loan Revolving Lender shall have any right to notice of any action or, subject to the first sentence of this Section 9.19, to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender.

SECTION 9.20. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that: (a) (i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agents, the Joint Bookrunners and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents, the Joint Bookrunners and the Lenders, on the other hand, (ii) each Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate and (iii) each Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (b) (i) each Agent, Joint Bookrunner and Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other person, and (ii) no Agent, Joint Bookrunner or Lender has any obligation to the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (c) the Agents, the Joint Bookrunners, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates and no Agent, Joint Bookrunner or Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Agents, the Joint Bookrunners and the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transactions contemplated hereby.

194

SECTION 9.21. USA PATRIOT Act Notice; Beneficial Ownership Regulation. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and 31 C.F.R. § 1010.230 (the “Beneficial Ownership Regulation”), it is required to (a) obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act and (b) obtain a certification regarding beneficial ownership of the Borrowers, to the extent required by the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation and is effective as to the Administrative Agent and each Lender.

SECTION 9.22. Additional Borrowers. Terex may designate any of its wholly owned Subsidiaries that is a Restricted Subsidiary as a Borrower under any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (i) Terex shall provide the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders of the applicable Class at least five Business Days’ notice of the designation of a new Subsidiary Borrower that is a U.S. Subsidiary, (ii) Terex shall provide the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders of the applicable Class at least ten Business Days’ notice of the designation of a new Subsidiary Borrower that is not a U.S. Subsidiary, (iii) the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the applicable Lenders, shall be reasonably satisfied that the applicable Lenders may make loans and other extensions of credit to such person in the applicable currency or currencies in such person’s jurisdiction in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and without being subject to any unreimbursed or unindemnified Tax or other expense, (iv) any designation as a Borrower (A) of a Subsidiary which is not a U.S. Subsidiary or (B) of a Subsidiary which is not organized in the same jurisdiction as an existing Borrower shall be subject to the prior written consent of each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (v) Terex and such Restricted Subsidiary shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent such corporate documentation (including all applicable “know your customer” documentation), charter documents, by-laws, resolutions and legal opinions, in each case, consistent with those provided or required to be provided by Terex under Section 5 of Amendment No. 2 on or prior to the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, modified as appropriate for the jurisdiction in question or otherwise as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent and (vi) if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, such Restricted Subsidiary organized in the U.K. or Ireland shall become party to the North Atlantic Guarantee Agreement pursuant to an amendment thereof or joinder thereto reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such a wholly owned Subsidiary and Terex, and the documentation referred to in the preceding sentence, such wholly owned Subsidiary shall be a Subsidiary Borrower and a party to this Agreement. A Subsidiary shall cease to be a Subsidiary Borrower hereunder at such time as no Loans, Fees or any other amounts due in connection therewith pursuant to the terms hereof in respect of such Subsidiary shall be outstanding, no Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Subsidiary shall be outstanding and such Subsidiary and Terex shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Subsidiary shall cease to be a Subsidiary Borrower solely because it no longer is a wholly owned Subsidiary.

195

SECTION 9.23. Several Obligations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder to pay the principal of and interest on the Loans are several and not joint and, except as provided in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or the North Atlantic Guarantee Agreement, as applicable, (a) each Borrower shall only be liable with respect to the payment of the principal of and interest on the Loans made to such Borrower, (b) only Terex shall be liable to pay the Facility Fees, the Administrative Agent Fees, the L/C Participation Fees and the Issuing Bank Fees and (c) the assets of any Borrower that is not a U.S. Borrower shall not directly or indirectly support the Obligations of any U.S. Borrower.

(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 9.25. Australian Privacy Principles. To the extent that any information held by the Administrative Agent or a Lender in relation to the Loan Documents comprises personal information of any officer, director or employee of the Australian Borrower, the Administrative Agent or that Lender (as the case may be) agrees to hold that personal information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles. If the Administrative Agent receives a request by a Lender, the Administrative Agent will provide a privacy notice (in the form recommended by the Asia Pacific Loan Market Association (Australian Branch) or as otherwise directed by a Lender) to a representative of the officers of the Australian Borrower, which details the manner in which personal information collected in connection with this agreement may be used and disclosed by the Lenders.

SECTION 9.26. Certain ERISA Matters.

(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 Borrowers 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.

197

(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 Borrowers 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 9.27. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging 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): 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.

198

SECTION 9.28. Net Short Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement:

(a)            In connection with any determination as to whether the requisite Lenders have (A) consented (or not consented) to any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, any Term Lender (other than any Lender that is a Regulated Bank or any Term Lender that is also a Revolving Credit Lender (and, in each case, their respective Affiliates)) or any of Affiliate of such Lender with which such Lender is acting in concert (other than Affiliates that (I) make independent investment decisions, (II) have customary information screens in place (that apply to Terex), and (III) have investment policies that are not directed by, and whose investment decisions are not influenced by, the holder or a common Affiliate acting in concert with the holder) that, as a result of such Lender’s or any of its Affiliates’ interest in any total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default swap or other derivative contract (other than any such total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default swap or other derivative contract entered into pursuant to bona fide market making activities), has a net short position that is at least 5% short with respect to any Term Loans (each, a “Net Short Lender”) shall, unless Terex otherwise elects (in its sole discretion), have no right to vote any of its Term Loans and shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Net Short Lenders.

(b)            In connection with any such determination, each Term Lender (other than any Lender that is a Regulated Bank or a Term Lender that is also a Revolving Credit Lender (and, in each case, their respective Affiliates)) that votes in connection with any such amendment or waiver, otherwise acts on any such matter or makes such a direction shall be deemed to have represented and warranted to Terex and the Administrative Agent that it is not a Net Short Lender, in each case, unless such Lender shall have notified Terex and the Administrative Agent prior to taking such action that it constitutes a Net Short Lender (it being understood and agreed that Terex and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on each such representation and deemed representation). The Administrative Agent (and its sub-agents) shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, any other Lender’s compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Net Short Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (and its sub-agents), in such capacity and not in its capacity as a Lender, if applicable, shall not be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective assignee or Participant is a Net Short Lender.

199

(c)            For purposes of determining whether a Term Lender (other than any Lender that is a Regulated Bank or a Term Lender that is also a Revolving Credit Lender (and, in each case, their respective Affiliates)) has a “net short position” on any date of determination: (A) derivative contracts with respect to the Term Loans and such contracts that are the functional equivalent thereof shall be counted at the notional amount thereof in dollars, (B) notional amounts in other currencies shall be converted to the dollar equivalent thereof by such Lender in a commercially reasonable manner consistent with generally accepted financial practices and based on the prevailing conversion rate (determined on a mid-market basis) on the date of determination, (C) derivative contracts in respect of an index that includes Terex or any other Loan Party or any instrument issued or guaranteed by Terex or any other Loan Party shall not be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Term Loans, so long as (x) such index is not created, designed, administered or requested by such Lender and (y) Terex and the other Loan Parties and any instrument issued or guaranteed by Terex or any other Loan Party, collectively, shall represent less than 15% of the components of such index, (D) derivative transactions that are documented using the ISDA Definitions shall be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Term Loans if such Lender is a protection buyer or the equivalent thereof for such derivative transaction and (x) the Term Loans are a “Reference Obligation” under the terms of such derivative transaction (whether specified by name in the related documentation, included as a “Standard Reference Obligation” on the most recent list published by Markit, if “Standard Reference Obligation” is specified as applicable in the relevant documentation or in any other manner), (y) the Term Loans would be a “Deliverable Obligation” under the terms of such derivative transaction, or (z) Terex or any other Loan Party (or its successor) is designated as a “Reference Entity” under the terms of such derivative transactions, (E) credit derivative transactions or other derivatives transactions not documented using the ISDA Definitions shall be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Term Loans if such transactions are functionally equivalent to a transaction that offers the Lender protection in respect of the Term Loans, or as to the credit quality of Terex or any other Loan Party other than, in each case, as part of an index so long as (x) such index is not created, designed, administered or requested by such Lender and (y) Terex and the other Loan Parties and any instrument issued or guaranteed by Terex or any other Loan Party, collectively, shall represent less than 15% of the components of such index and (F) such determination of any short position shall be made net of any corresponding long position or derivatives under which such Lender is a protection seller or the equivalent thereof.
